The best restaurants in East of England

Unassuming on the outside but amazing authentic Thai food inside. Reasonably priced, generous portions and ingredients and true, fragrant spice to the food. Highly recommend the jungle curry and the duck salad - flavourful and fresh. It is a small venue so if in large group I would recommend to book a table in advance. Corkage fee for BYO. Staff are friendly and attentive

My favourite Thai food in the town. It is not only Tom Yum in here. Always want to try new dish and Always happy with them. Never disappointed.

As my Mum, Stepdad and little brother are visiting from up north this weekend we decided to pop to the Red Cow yesterday after they arrived at my house.I honestly wish we hadn’t bothered. We had three children in total with us. One of which is autistic and the other deaf so both can at times be loud but they weren’t overly noisy at all yesterday. Some customers were glaring at us anytime the children spoke and another customer kept tutting anytime a dog barked or our children made a noise. Customers were sprawled out across the bar without moving aside to let my partner order. One staff member with black hair came over to our table snatched the cutlery off and remarked “this table is reserved hence why the cutlery is out”. There was no reserved sign and a lot of pubs/restaurants have cutlery laid out on tables anyway. We just sat there because the children gravitated to it and didn’t think that deeply into it. My son was getting fed up and we weren’t happy with the atmosphere so we packed up to leave. My son who is 2 was crying in his buggy on the way out of the door. The same staff member who snatched the cutlery off our table was standing by the door, my Mum said thank you to her and the staff member rolled her eyes at my son who was crying. I passed her at the door after my mum and I too said thank you, only to be ignored by her. I’m sorry but is this a pub or a library? We’re local and although we don’t visit the pub that often, when we have been there in the past the team have been amazing. Particularly the manager Zoe, who I believe is currently on leave-AND IT SHOWS!! Zoe is amazing with kids and has always been really helpful and kind to our children, also to my little brother when he is down to visit. What a genius way to make people feel so uncomfortable and awkward that they want to leave and not spend more money. It’s an actual joke. Get some manners!

Always welcoming. I'm an outsider visiting local friends for many years

What an amazing find. A lovely hidden gem of an olde worlde pub tucked away in a beautiful secluded village. The food was delicious and the portions humongous. The pies were family sized, home made and impossible to eat all of it. Everything was served fresh, hot and by really helpful and accommodating staff. If I could give 8 stars, I would. The ales were good and the atmosphere very inviting. I booked a for a party of six, 1 in a wheelchair and two dogs. Everyone enjoyed the experience immensely. 👌

By far the best home cooked pub food you could get and for such a good price you’d be daft to eat anywhere else! Staff have always gone the extra mile to cater any needs and requirements ! Highly recommend .

Great venue and staff attentive. We had a close family wake here with private area, and space for the children to play outside.

Delicious, the cod was very good

This is a very nice friendly pub / restaurant / hotel. It can be, especially on Sunday, very busy. It does has a car park lot, right across the street. To park there, you need to get there very early. On average, we go there twice a month for Sunday lunch, which I feel is great value. I always have the pork, a choice from three; beef, chicken and pork. Its really tasty and cooked perfectly. The alternative I like is the pork belly, maple glazed. Lovely roast potatoes, gravy, Yorkshires and veg. The prawn and crab salad appetizer is very nice, but a little small. The service is always sharp, polished and friendly. Choice of booze is very good. My only "moan" is the serviettes are thin "paper". One wipe and its falling apart. I did talk to the restaurant manager about that and he commented that its all about "cost" of managing the laundry of linen. I get that; but do think on a Sunday, always rammed, it would be a nice addition. I also often also pop in for a beer with my adult daughter. Really nice place; right on my doorstep home.

Excellent little coffee house (discovered on google / trip advisor) very conveniently located just over a mile off the A47 Peterborough Road. We were travelling with friends from Nottingham to Norfolk so this was a very suitable half way stop. Very clean well decorated premises - very welcoming & friendly staff. Excellent choice of snacks / sandwiches (freshly prepared for you) and wonderful cakes. Interesting quirky lamp shades - upside down teacups and saucers! Highly recommended (so much so we stopped there on the way home too!) ps Don't judge a book by it's cover aka don't be put off by the fenced off rough ground adjacent to the coffee house! TheCoffee House offerings are very good indeed.

Wonderful atmosphere, friendly, helpful staff. Food reasonably priced, plentiful and very tasty.

Great place. Good atmosphere. Food was amazing, special shout out to chef Yazz. We'll definitely come again

I had a fantastic experience thanks to Ahmet’s excellent customer service. He was incredibly helpful and attentive throughout our visit, going above and beyond to ensure we had everything we needed. When my daughter unexpectedly got sick near the restroom entrance, Ahmet handled the situation with kindness and professionalism, quickly helping us without hesitation. His positive attitude made all the difference, turning what could have been a stressful moment into a manageable one. Thank you, Ahmet, for your outstanding service!

We had prebooked. Restaurant much busier than last time we visited. We had one starter of mushrooms followed by a pie and scampi. All the food was delicious and good value for money. Good menu, great food, nice atmosphere and friendly staff. Nicole was very efficient. Highly recommended.

The Inn has undergone a thoughtless renovation of furniture and decor. The 2024 renovation had stocked the rooms with locally made furnishings from Simon Pearce and Pompanoosuc Mills. The current attempt at mid century modern is colorblind and insulting. The decorators failed to consider The College, installing Yale Blue headboards and bedding runners. The multicolored heads in the artwork over the couch are pandering to multi culturalism while failing to recognize that all of the heads are shaped like a patrician white man. It is embarrassing. There is one cute print of Kemeny’s car with a BADIC license plate, but the rest of it is decorated like a typical Homewood Suites now. The Inn itself remains otherwise lovely. The staff are kind and welcoming, the bed is comfortable despite its ugliness, and the location at Dartmouth College (Yhe Home of The Big GREEN - not BLUE!) remains perfect.
