The best restaurants in East Midlands

Ordered take away and they took payment from their website. Food don’t arrive and payment was taken. Do not use

We had last night 1 cod and 2 haddock all with chips, 1 large chicken kebab , 3 mushy peas. Fish was excellent, light crispy butter and tasted great. Best haddock ever had. The kebab was very delicious. Very tasty and big portions , Excellent and fast service. Been customers for 8 years now but the new people are the best!!!

Great place for good coffee/hot chocolate and pastries/cakes. Not the cheapest around but fairly priced for the quality.

Such a cute interior for a waiting area. Owner was super sweet and understanding about allergies and just general vibe. Food was delicious, crispy and flavourful!

This is the third time I have visited and I get more enjoyment each time. The second visit (6 months after the first) was quite late after an evening kick off at Franklins Gardens and I was the last arrival. Still. The welcome was genuine and the food delightful. Fast forward 3 weeks to last night. Busier and a bit earlier but I was recognised by both chef and FoH and personally greeted like an old friend. Fabulous pasta and a delicious dessert. The restaurant would never be described as large, 20 plus covers (maybe 30) but the quality far out ways the quantity. The menu is varied but not huge. Chef does not want to overcomplicate his kitchen which he appears to drive solo. What he does, he does very well. Long may he continue to do so. FoH were hard working, attentive without being over intrusive. Keeping an eye out but not being pushy. If there is a downside, it’s the location. A dark side street leading to what is trying to be a little oasis. You have to know it’s there to find it. I’ll be there again in a few weeks. Looking forward to it

Gran lugar, me encanta el ambiente, las bebidas, la comida. He sido muchas veces ahora y siempre muy consistente... Sigue así. Si quieres auténtica comida caribeña en Leicester, ven aquí. 🇯🇲

Very nice small cafe, had a beans and sausage toastie, I really liked the books they had there to read, and various stuff you could take away for free.

This is my favourite bar in Stamford. Lovely atmosphere, really cosy and great staff. The cocktails are amazing and reasonably priced. On Weds, Thurs and Fri they have special offers on some cocktails - £6 each, which is crazily cheap for the quality of the drinks. Also a great selection of bottled beers.

Been in for quite coffee and card club Coffee excellent Put my sweetner in for me Abby made good coffee I had 2 Excellent and friendly Proper trained staff on coffee machine

Una noche excelente. Tuvimos una noche portuguesa para nuestra comida de la Iglesia de las Señoras. Todos comentaron sobre la deliciosa comida. La organización de todo el evento fue fluida y eficiente. El servicio era muy bueno y el personal era amable y servicial. Lo recomendaría.

My friend and I have visited here 2 times now and absolutely love it!! Very extensive menu with lots of choice but we both have pancakes because they are delicious- probably the best pancakes I’ve had out of the numerous dessert places available . The staff are very friendly and it is never too busy. Can’t wait to come again!

Visited a friend in Notts yesterday and we stumbled across this little hot spot. Great little place with indoor and outdoor seating and both areas extremely clean and presentable. Lovely range of food items with a selection for everyone from breakfasts, to toasted sandwiches, fresh sandwiches, smoothies and a great selection of delicious cakes! The staff are absolutely lovely and really helpful. One of the staff helped in my hut if need when there was a spillage over our backage containing outfit changes for that night. He couldn’t be more helpful in offering to help dry my clothes and replacing the spilt drink. The food was beautiful and the quality and freshness means I’ll be back on my return to Nottingham. Definitely worth a visit if you’re passing!

went in last night for a proper pint of pump pulled Batemans Ale not the stuff in bottles .. could not believe they had no real ale for sale Walk out disgusted

Can't beat Birds for a breakfast cob. Staff are lovely at this one, will be back soon. 😎

We paid £55.45 for a delivered takeaway. It turned up nearly an hour late after being delivered to the wrong address. The food was cold, and part of the order was missing. This is not the first time we have had issues with this place. I've been overcharged before, and items have been forgotten to be placed in my order, which necessitated my returning to the restaurant after I was nearly home. Being busy on a Saturday night is not an excuse. This is terrible service.
