The best restaurants in East Midlands

Ordered our usual with extra as had a friend around . Very dissapointed with the chow mein and rice. There was no taste with the chow mein, and the rice was stodgy. The chicken curry was chicken in a curry gravy, awful! Be a while now before we try there again! It's usually very good but bad few items.

Stayed at the nearby Travelodge and called in for breakfast on the Monday morning and were terribly disappointed to find it was shut. Not only that, but it did not appear to have been opened for some time.

Ice cream is so lovely and cheap I can choose which ice cream I want in a plastic cup with strawberry sauce and hundreds and thousands

Birthday luncheon, we hadn't planned to come here, we met a butcher at Rutland show, he had just opened a bistro in Sherwood, unfortunately is was not open today. Being probably the hottest day of the year I did not want to travel too far, we have seen Launay's on a previous visit to Edwinstowe. We were the on dinners in the restaurant. I found the chairs a little too low and not quite supportive. Starters which we share were salmon wasabi pea puree and fennel citrus sperified balls, absolutely fantastic then chorizo cumberland and a wonderfully cooked egg. Mains, fried pulled pork and a sousvide steak, I had to try it because I sousvide at home, however I felt that it lacked taste and was a little dry. the tomato relish was pretty good, served in an old marmalade jar. dessert was to die for, basil cheesecake with micro lemon balm Definitely be back to ravage the a la carte menu

This is my second visit to Henderson’s Cocoa House and it is lovely. I went for a chocolate milkshake this time but would also recommend the hot chocolates which are much better than the competitors’! Lovely handmade chocolates too - Whats not to like?

We went in for lunch as a 4 and were seated quickly - Lovely food and really quick service! Great value for money. Shall be returning

This is a fabulous little restaurant. The food is amazing and the staff are so friendly and caring. You definitely need to book as there are only 8 tables.

Marido tenía un sándwich de dedo de pescado gigante - delicioso y lleno de ensalada y ensalada de col en el lado. Tomé sopa de puerro y papa con rollos y mantequilla. Disfrutamos mucho tanto de la comida como del ambiente agradable.

Wonderful coffee shop and restaurant. It is always clean and friendly atmosphere, with lovely coffee and tea. The cakes are yummy and soft - everyone should try the carrot cake (gluten free too!) The coffee is strong but smooth but you can ask for it weaker if you like. Not at all like a ‘charity’ shop of coffee shop - somewhere nice to visit

On the night we had food from here the queue was out of the door. This shop has a cafe in the back so service can be a bit slower than usual. They were also managing phoned-in orders and 3 staff absences. CASH ONLY. Cashier took 4 or 5 orders then food was cooked to order. Ours was good not greasy like previous reviewers. Cod £4.95 large chips £2.95 so no complaints about pricing. Would use again.

After several times of having pie mash and liquor delivered it is still spot on and intend on using maguires in the future have highly recommended to my family and friends well done you guys and keep up the good service Pete

Wonderful atmosphere and some amazing dishes! We had the Wednesday buffet lunch and tried so many new dishes I wouldn't have elsewhere! Atmosphere was lovely and staff were helpful describing what Elsies do and the plans they have for the future I will be back again soon

I enjoy Mrs Bunns because of its locality. The food is nice and done in adequately good portion sizes. However, I do wish Mrs Bunns could expand the vegetarian breakfast range as I am not a big fan of the veggie sausage brand they use. Moreover, Mrs Bunns closes too early and is not open on a weekend, which is a shame because I would like to access it more. Nonetheless, it’s good for a nice and convenient bite to eat when possible and at reasonable prices.

Ordered takeout it never arrived as it wasn’t open! No option to cancel order no contact number. £40 wasted and no food. Just eat just say wait another 30 mins and now been nearly 2 hours. NEVER ORDER from here.
