The best restaurants in East Midlands

All the food was served in good time and beautifully cooked. Couldn’t fault it. Service great too. We had the Salmon Wellington, lamb shank and a burger.

We hosted our Wedding Rehearsal Supper at The Red Lion in Culworth, and it was absolutely wonderful. Bronwyn, Justin, Max and the whole Red Lion team took such great care of us and our guests. Their warmth and hospitality really set the tone for the weekend. They offered us an incredible feast that everyone raved about, and the cozy, intimate atmosphere of the pub made it feel like a true gathering of close friends and family. The outdoor garden is especially lovely - a perfect spot to relax and enjoy the setting. It was a beautiful way to kick off our wedding celebrations, and we’re so grateful to The Red Lion team for making it feel so special.

Can never fault our visits to Bella... Very warm welcome, great food and atmosphere...recommend everytime 😋

Another fantastic visit to The Blacksmiths Arms. Enjoyed a great Sunday Lunch. The team are great, always attentive and made sure our visit was superb. Been a few times and have never been disappointed. Keep up the great work and we look forward to coming back again.

Had a late lunch here today ,the pub wasn’t too busy when we arrived but had a lovely ambience. I had intended to have a roast dinner but couldn’t resist the Weeping Tiger. The food was excellent and the staff were lovely, I will be back soon for the larp.

We used Ben's Kitchen to cater for our wedding anniversary party and were delighted by the quality of food. The selection was excellent after taking Ben's advice. Many people commented on how fabulous it was. The hot selection was cooked on the premises and everything was set out beautifully. Presentation was exceptional. I would also add that Ben went above and beyond. Nothing was too much trouble and the cost was very competitive. If you are organising any sort of event, I would recommend checking out the website and getting in touch with Ben's Kitchen. Thanks again Ben

Great authentic Mexican food cooked in an open kitchen with great service in a relaxed atmosphere. Added bonus of BYO on Alcohol (soft drinks must be bought on the premises, co-op next door for when you run out 🤣) makes for a very reasonable night out.

Met friends there this morning for breakfast. Medium breakfast very poor. Maybe a teaspoon of tomatos and beans on my plate and charged extra money to swap fried potatoes for fried bread instead. My friend had a dirty cup given to her and the coffee I had was absolutely awful. No taste at all... it may as well have been a mug of hot water and milk. We definitely won't return.

A bit hit and miss about service as they often stop serving after 3pm. Used to be reliable with their hours. Lovely atmosphere and drinks though. Shame about refusing service at unadvertised times.

Dropped on for a quick breakfast - Jenny’s is a bit of a gem … both for the cafe and with a garden/ play area at the back .

We came here this morning. Family of 5. 2 adults 1 child and 1 toddler and 1 baby. Me and my husband both had a large breakfast each and our daughter had a small breakfast. Amazing food. Arrived piping hot. Steam coming away from all the meals. The bacon was cooked to perfection just how we like it. Delicious coffee and cuppa teas. The lady provided a dish so we could cut up some sausage and hash browns for our toddler. Which wasn't a problem for us to do that for him as some places can be funny. They even provided small toddler cutlery for him. I think everything came to £22.60 We will definitely be back next time we are in Mablethorpe! The lady even complimented how well behaved my toddler and baby was. We looked at the other meals coming from the kitchen and the roast dinners looked incredible. Thank you from table number 1 xx

Took my partner as a birthday gift as he hadn't been there in years. The food was excellent as always and had to ask for doggie bag to take home as couldn't eat it all we opted for the Classic Menu for 2 well worth the money.

There was an item missing: banana cake. curry goat had less meat and more skin and tendons. it was not satisfying to eat. curry was much more salty than before. seems like today the quality and concentration was not on point with this restaurant.

Just called in for lunch ….ordered the spanicopita …just like a Greek Yaya would. Make ..delicious the tzatziki was good too. Shame it’s closing down this week…wish I had found it sooner

Extremely good value for money
