The best restaurants in East of England

Came across this place and noticed they sold grounded coffee and purchased it. 5 minutes later after walking away I realised that they sold me coffee beans, so went back and politely asked if this could be exchanged- which the staff said even though they advertise it they didnt sell it and only sell the beans-so requested a refund. At this point they couldn’t see my transaction on the till and asked if I even paid for it? The guy who served me was there but didn’t mention he served me at that time- I was then asked to check my internet banking to check the transaction has gone through and for them to see this also???? Because if it didn’t go through then no refund is required????(Could have asked the staff member who served me?????) Eventually they found my purchase- said it’s been refunded- but still hasn’t. So keep the £6… not worth the re visit.

Lovely place to get freshly made sandwiches. The bacon and sausage sandwiches are a favourite with the family. Along with the selection of smoothies and milkshakes.

Very good choice of fruit and veg, though to see better pricing would be good. There is NO Tea Room.

So i swear hands down the double beef burger was like meaty and nice bap. You get loads off fries to. Nice and hot. Nice friendly staff and after that i went to 4 diffrent pubs to get some nice beers to wash it all down with….lols…

Have been to St Lawrence Inn quite a few times over the last few years whenever I visit family on the site, and every time we come food or drink it doesn’t disappoint. Went for breakfast this morning and everything on the plate was cooked perfectly and all really tasty. The size of the captains breakfast that my husband had was impressive if you want a huge breakfast! When we have been for a roast in the past they have always been really lovely, meat cooked perfectly, generous portions and a proper home made roast. We have always been really happy with meals off the rest of the menu too! Staff are always chatty and welcoming, and makes it feel like a friendly local. Lastly, considering the rise in cost of everything, I think the prices of everything is really reasonable, especially if you’re having a few drinks the deals on shots are great 😊

We got a takeaway. Food is normally spot on but this time the lamb chops were badly overcooked and the pork kebabs were also overcooked. The cafe was full and the guy said 'your chops are slightly overdone' that was an understatement. If I had been eating in the restaurant I would not have accepted them and sent them back but we had waited long enough for the takeaway (over an hour) and everyone was hungry. It won't stop me using the Aberford Cafe but next time I will eat in.

This place is amazing. I had a cappuccino and bacon, sausage, egg and chips. My wife had a veggie breakfast with complementary toast and a cup of tea. Total £16.10. Tasty food, great service, fantastic value 🙏🏻

Fabulous ice cream, and friendly service, lots of choices the pistachio is to die for Highly recommended 🍨 You can buy tubs for your freezer too😉

MUST is a really nice wine bar and also serves food. Wine selection is excellent and the team really know their wines. Nice ambiance. Recommended.

I saw the name of the restaurant from afar and went with my intuition that it must be something special and I was right. In an exotic setting, we were welcomed by the friendly host. Together with my family, we spent few relaxing and fun-filled hours in this unique place. The food was very good and they have a very rich variety of drinks. Thanks to the owner, a special lady! I heartily recommend this place!

This is a wonderful place to come and eat delicious soulful Vegetarian / vegan food and the coffee is great too! I was attending medical treatment locally from overseas and I was researching healthier dining options as I am tired of the usual Italian, Pizza, Burger establishments and I came across Miss Green Fingers that looked perfect so I that helped me choose where I booked my accommodation. The cafe was fantastic! As I was travelling alone it can be a bit daunting visiting a completely new area but they made me feel so welcome and made me the most delicious takeaway meals to take back to my hotel, the oat milk porridge with date syrup was a particular favourite along with the salads. It also boasts a little shop which is perfect for picking up healthier drinks & snacks but has the most amazing selection of Montezuma chocolates for a treat too! ;-) Just a shame they don't have a branch in Kenya!

You can walk into The Spice Lounge & be seated quickly, or you can book in advance, or order a delivery. I felt completely safe eating in, as the restaurant currently has seating spaced to adhere to Covid restrictions. The food & service is amazing, even though they are curently running a mid-week deal, meaning you save a lot of money off the bill. When I ordered a delivery I was pleasantly surprised, as normally deliveries from any restaurant is never as good a quality as dining in, but the quality of the deliveries from The Spice Lounge found the food to be equal quality as dining in, which is very unusual for most deliveries The service for deliveries is also as good as it is when you eat in & I was surprised to find that the owner delivered our food, I know the customer should always be right, but these days that doesn't seem to exist, but this place will mix up the menu if required, they have a huge selection for meat eater & vegans, they cater for allergies & although they do not have soya milk they have no objection to you taking your own with you. On Sundays they do an amazing buffet, again very reasonably priced. The staff & owner do their best to make you feel comfortable & were really good with my autistic son. I cannot fault his restaurant, the food, or the service, as nothing is any trouble for them & it's done with a smile

Very weird experience. Arrived at 7 and ordered straight away. 50 minutes later we received our starter (if we had known the waiting times we would have ordered more food as we were starving by this point.) we enquired at this point how much longer for our mains and we’re told another 25 mins (not great, but ok.) 1 hour 50 after arrival we complained as still no word on mains. Told they were focusing on takeaways but mains should be with us fairly soon. Finally got mains 2 hours 10 mins after arrival. Insane! Then they tried to add obligatory service charge. Whole restaurant was sitting without food and everyone complaining. Food was nice and well presented

Thanks to TripAdvisor this was a great find and just what we were looking for. Hobson's has a varied menu of freshly prepared food. The staff are friendly and welcoming and it has a relaxed atmosphere that made the whole experience enjoyable for us all. There are tables both in and outside. We will definitely return.
