The best restaurants in East of England

Beautifully decorated, lovely atmosphere. Good and service was excellent.

We turned up on the off chance due to a cancelled train - was found a table although it was busy . Great service and excellent fresh cooked food. Fab atmosphere and Nicola's service and assistance was first class. We will return .Thank you for a great evening

Let’s get the cons out of the way first.£10 for pie and mash in a school dinners style with a good pie but cold lumpy mash and veg with a slight. taste of washing up liquid. left on plates. Staff ok but ready to go home with a little bit of attitude .Small confusing set up on entry and not for anyone with mobility issues imo. However Pros it’s cosy nice atmosphere ok for tea and cake and light snacks.Friendly .

Rude staff and slow service. Proprietor became threatening, when I dared to complain. Codess on Victoria Street is a good alternative. Avoid!

Went with my two sons for birthday celebration. The interior was beautiful with lots of wooden carvings. The food was very nice and portions are good. Lamb briyani takeaway came with a separate portion of vegie curry. Very nice indeed.

Had another bangin' take away from Jacko's last night! As usual, everything was perfect! Chips piping hot, Chicken too good to be true, the Mrs loved her Cod, and the guys are always a pleasure to do business with. Prices are the best for miles around too! Love Jacko's food so much!

First time in this little village and restaurant which was very pleasing. The staff were attentive, well mannered and polite. The food was excellent, most of us had the Sunday dinner which well presented, tasty and of value. Plenty to have on the drinks, although I was on soft, there is a decent wine list to choose from. We finished with Tea & Coffee. Overall a very pleasant and calming environment, good service and food, highly recommended.

We were staying a few miles away and ordered a takeaway as they were full in the restaurant. Wow, really good / Authentic Thai food and all cooked to order.

An excellent lunch in this most welcoming cafe. Such pleasant and delightful staff who pour their hearts into cooking for you. We were so delighted on our day visit to Southend to have found this charming gem of a place. Thank you to the staff member and proprietor. Good clean venue with tasty, fresh food specially cooked to order.

Absolutely delighted to see dukes back up and running with fab decor ,great menu and lovely staff ,totally worth a visit. Was extremely busy so glad we had booked.

Had a lovely meal (lasagne) from the fox aspenden. The new owners and chef have done really well. Will defo be back to try their new menus xx

Once again the Indian Ocean looked after us superbly after our concert this month. The service was excellent as was the food. We were quite a large group (14 of us, from the Heath brass band). Prompt, efficient and friendly service

Awesome place. A good choice of ice cream but not so overwhelming to make it difficult to decide. Nice cakes (not too much in the way of gluten free options if you need that) and some decent looking savoury food. Turkish delight milkshake is fantastic.

On holiday in Wells and it was our first time ordering from Fortune House Chinese Takeaway and it was absolutely delicious! We didn’t want any peppers in a curry we ordered and the man who served us was brilliant and was able to substitute the peppers for us with no problems. Food was fresh and service was quick friendly and super helpful! Would highly recommend 😊

What a find, a traditional English pub with the perfect welcoming ambiance. Great selection of local beers and a proper home cooked Sunday lunch. Great menu with loads of local produce, cooked perfectly and delivered to your table with a smile..
