The best restaurants in East of England

I’ve been going here for years, tasty food, good value for money, friendly staff, cheaper than town for food.

Went there for our wedding anniversary dinner.... Fantastic ambience with stunning decor, excellent flavours from all starters and mains we ordered, amazing cocktails, and customer service was top notch.... Will definitely recommend and go back again. The live entertainment was also good.

Our car club have just had our Xmas meal ( We know it's January but always find more relaxed at this time of year). We had the sunday menu, this was very good. Good plentiful and service was very good. We had the back room which accommodated our AGM, raffle and prize giving. Would like to thank all the staff for an enjoyable afternoon. This place is well worth a visit for Sunday lunch. 2 courses £12, 3 courses £15.

Delicious tuna sandwich on French bread

We came very late on Wednesday and the host was able to fit us in. What an amazing place been before had a great meal then. This time it was the food was amazing we could both not finish as the portion was so large but really tasty. The host and chef make this a must go to place. Great food lovely people. We visit from Edinburgh so can’t go regularly but would if we lived in the area.

Loved the food here, the portions were of a good size and the food was well cooked. I'd recommend this place for anyone looking for some Caribbean food. We only got take away so did not sit down for a meal.

Visited SALT sandwich bar and enjoyed two lovely sandwiches, a side salad, crisps, and drinks. The food was delightful, but the service was a bit slow. On both occasions, the manager or owner appeared quite stressed. Despite that, it's a good place with a stunning interior.

Good music , nice folks and the Gin!

Lovely gelato and great flavours between both shops (Letchworth and Hitchin)

Omar’s is by far the best Indian restaurant I’ve been to for years. The little quaint restaurant, accommodating staff and the best Indian food ever!

Excellent service, although small menu covered everything, did have a specials board nothing on there, but we went mid week. All meals freshly prepared and fresh. I did ask for extras which although not on the menu they accommodated. Fantastic food Good atmosphere, has facility for restaurant to be separated from bar area, hope this is done at busy times. Fantastic thank you

A bit less pretentious and showy than places in the square but good basic fare at reasonable prices. Great coffee. Bacon roll is colossal. Fab doughnuts. Can't really understand the reviews that say the staff are poorly trained or unfriendly. They aren't gushy or have-a-nice-day ish but I go in regularly and find them welcoming and helpful. Very good WiFi as well.

Was welcomed by a lovely polite and attentive member of staff. Tables nice and clean. Ordered an egg sandwich which came in lovely fresh granary bread and a fresh side salad. Will definitely go back.

If you’re looking for a large portion of wonderfully cooked spareribs this is the place to go. Recommend making reservations ahead of time. Great service!

We have just returned from a delicious lunch at the Saddle. The staff were very friendly and the food was delicious.We had fish and chips and steak and chips.The fish was delicious lovely crispy batter and the steak was very well cooked. The chips were also delicious. All the staff were very friendly and helpful. It was not busy which is a shame as the pub offered real value for money in a friendly environment.We will certainly return. Thank you .
