The best restaurants in East of England

Brilliant pub, very friendly and great food

What can be said well friendly quick and jolly good food

This family run restaurant offers some great food at a reasonable price, and the service is also very good. We had a fabulous evening with great food, good wine and a few brandies to finish.

Always a delight very busy today

Delicious Sunday lunch, great service. Would highly recommend.

Went for lunch at The Vibes this week. Sat outside by the canal as it was a sunny day, lovely atmosphere. Very attentive waiting staff. The food was delicious, very fresh and was brought out quickly thank goodness as we had a very hungry 4 year old with us! I'm sure we'll be back.

Food is delicious. Staff is very friendly

Sorry to say, could not agree with other reviewers about this place which we booked seeing the good reviews. The service, food was nothing more than average. Main sea bass dish was too salty, service was too slow. We all had pre-ordered our menu. Requested some bread with the mains, never received it.

Best fish & chips in Norwich. Great value for money, polite staff, good parking and the shop is spotless👍👍

Nice beer in a pleasant atmosphere. I aim to visit on a Sunday, late afternoon for some of the entertainment they offer 😀

Club Lotus meeting place, great crowd 👍

Dear Googlers, I guess it helped going in with a chap who went to school with the owner. Despite not seeing each other for 40+ years, there was instant recognition. Anyway, I digress. Food was excellent, service attentive and very busy for a Wednesday night, mostly locals. Apparently that's a quiet night. But you know my opinion - eat where the locals eat. So suggest you book ahead and have a wonderful meal.

Friendly service. Pizzas were great. Lovely places

Still the best fish and chips in Southend.

Fabulous pizza (diavola), one of the best I’ve tried in UK. Tiramisu was also outstanding. The service was really good, very attentive, a must go in Bedford.
