The best restaurants in East Midlands

We went here for my daughters baby shower. Wow, what a venue for the occasion! Beautiful private room and the afternoon tea was fabulous. The staff couldn’t be any more accommodating, they really looked after us! Highly recommend!

The best place for brunch. Lovely people who work there and they make such great coffee. 100% recommend this place for great food and a peaceful setting.

Popped in whilst staying in the area on a Wednesday night- good timing as it is Fish and Chips night - excellently cooked. The place was busy - not surprising considering the wonderfully kept beer too.

We’ve visited hundreds of coffee shops around the country over the years and tried numerous cakes and desserts. I can say without reservation that the Apple and almond cake and Bakewell tart were the two nicest we’ve ever tasted. What a little gem of a coffee shop. Cheerful and welcoming staff and to top it all they’re dog friendly.

What a great place, had breakfast twice over the weekend and had pizzas on Friday night. Really enjoyed our pizzas, so fresh and tasty! Breakfast was fabulous , staff really friendly and helpful. Definitely recommend a stop here if you’re in the area.

Every Wednesday through Sunday, parked up in the main car park of Bramcote Hills Park is Frothy's Coffee Van - a mobile Barista from whom you can get all your usual caffeine treats at decent prices. Particularly lovely at Winter, Frothy's offers 'Winter Warmers' including such things as Hot Chocolate, Pumpkin Spice Latte, Chai Latte and Gingerbread Latte. The perfect accompaniment to a frosty morning through Bramcote. For the traditionalists amongst you (including myself 99% of the time), you can also get tea! Speaking of traditionalists - this place's preferred method of payment is cash. Brilliant! There is a card machine, but cash is, quite rightly, preferred. We need more places placing the value back on cash. I love this little enterprise and it is well worth visiting if you are in Bramcote Hills Park.

Food (breakfast) tasted funny and we both commented on it. My friend thought she tasted vinegar and I thought it had a metallic taste. 20 mins after eating we both had tummy pains and diarrhoea (we are not a couple so live separately). Not sure if this has changed ownership but things have declined from when we last visited a few months ago. We will not be returning.

A perfect destination ! We enjoyed an excellent lunch when we visited Belper today . Everything we could ask for in a cafe . Clean , comfortable , welcoming , dog friendly , lovely staff , plenty of choice on the menu, very good options for vegans , nice toilets . I could go on ! But best of all , the food was delicious . When we visit Belper again , this is definitely where we will be going .

We called in early evening. Place was empty, but a very friendly warm welcome awaited us. Seated and served immediately. The service was prompt and polite. The food was excellent. Hot, tasty and plenty of it. Highly recommended. Will definitely be back.

One of the best pizzas I have had in Leicester! You have to try their Philly cheese steak and buffalo chicken ranch pizza! Absolutely amazing

We had our Wedding reception here Fantastic evening staff were lovely all the quest couldn't get over the lovely views from the balcony.

We have been using this take away for 25 years. Never had a less than excellent meal. Fresh tasty and outstanding service. Wish they were a sit in restaurant

I booked afternoon tea to celebrate our wedding anniversary. What a thoroughly lovely experience. It was already set up for our arrival and looked absolutely amazing. Everything was freshly made and tasted utterly delicious. There was so much, we had to bring some home. I'd wholeheartedly recommend this little gem of a cafe. It feels so welcoming and nothing is too much trouble for the staff.

Excellent home delivered afternoon tea. What a lovely surprise gift. Was tasty and fresh. Could have done with the option of more savoury and less sweet (due to diabetic) but the quality and quantity were outstanding. And came with a beautiful fresh rose on top. Great.

Don't know why it's taken so long to go there and that is my loss. Yhey the best pizzas I have ever eaten. Delivered on time as well. I would give it more stars if I could. Whatever you do, don't go anywhere else.
