The best restaurants in East of England

A delicious meal served by charming staff in a beautiful period building.

Best chippy in Bedford by far, fresh and tasty cod n chips. Chips are the highlight for me.

Popped in to get a too good to go bag/box. Such a bargain if you can catch one do it 👌

Visited today for lunch. Quickly directed to a spare table in the back garden courtyard. Clean and spacious. We were offered the specials along with menus. Lovely flat white coffees arrived in tasteful crockery. Beautiful presented chicken and bacon bagel from specials board was filling and tasty. Toasties great and burrata toast from specials were top class. The staff are quick, polite and very attentive. Lovely visit .

What a lovely place . Breakfast was very good and David is a lovely man we chatted for ages. The food was great and so was the coffee

Spotlessly clean and best chips I’ve ever had. No bad bits. Huge portions.

Lovely food delish whould definitely eat here again

Great service. Friendly staff. Other guests were very noisy. Couldn’t hear yourself speak. Value for money yes, but there were a few things that need ironing out. The bread for the sandwiches was far too thick. They should be thinner, dainty. Filling very nice and just the right amount. The tiny quiches were a disappointment. Lemon Posset far too sweet. I have done this before but with whipped double cream to a billowy cloud consistency but not as sweet. Brownies, absolutely delicious. Very fudgy and moorish. Strawberry very nice size and sweet and juicy. I have dipped my strawberries before in 70% dark chocolate. Beautiful sultana scones. Were they made on the premises? Can’t tell. They were big and soft. Would have been better smaller scones. The jam was far too sweet I felt it on my teeth. I was too full to try anything else. Oodles amount of tea very nice. Just a little tip, I think putting sandwiches and the rest of the cakes etc should be all in 3 different plates rather than bringing sandwiches first and then the cakes. Overall a nice afternoon out to a place I had never been before.

Lovely food, would highly recommend!!

Great service and top quality food.

This bar was a real ale and cider outlet offering a good range of both. Sadly, the outlet is now closed.

Just got back from a great meal at Big 10. Decent food, great service and quality music. Will definitely be coming back 👍

Fantastic food Delightful old building Lovely atmosphere Friendly happy staff Good value for money Would definitely go back
