The best restaurants in England

I had been looking forward to visiting DN1 for a while. Beautifully intimate venue, but absolutely has the vibey buzz I love- even within a small space. We sat in the dinining area which was lovely, but we will definitely try the chefs table next time- that’s where all the action happens! He food was fab- innovate and well put together - the cod tongue and macaroons were our favourites. *chefs kiss* But above anything…what impressed us most, was the service level- unrivaled. Incredible from such a young team- everyone was brilliant, but Tom is truly fantasitc. We can’t wait to visit again- bravo!

Don’t be misled by the carwash in front of it! It really is a gem! Great service and fabulous freshly cooked food. We will be back!

Googled somewhere to have a breakfast and the coffee house came up. Very lovely breakfast, and the latte was beautiful.

Great venue spotlessly clean and staff very efficient I was served by a very polite and friendly lady called Claire would highly recommend the Vale Bar

This restaurant is up along with the likes of the Waldorff Hotel, It is a college for students starting their careers in hospitality. The service is excellent and the food magnificent. Occassionally there is a guest chef who spends a couple of days with the students and they guide the students to create their Menu for service to customers of a Thursday evening. If like me you want to try amazing food for a fraction of the cost, or you just want to support the next generation of hospitality staff and Chefs, then this is the place to go! Don't in anyway think that because the students are learning there will be any mistakes because the first class Lecturers are there to make sure there are none! You will not regret a visit and I go every week in term time have tried many dishes, and have never had a bad meal. These students are trained so highly they win many National competitions and so have the Lecturers. Well done Loughborough College for the high standards and excellent skills and Lecturers this center/restaurant provides.

Excellent set menu. Sophisticated staff. Lovely first class setting. Superb cuisine. There was literally nothing to fault and it compares well with excellent London restaurants. Locally sourced produce, meats and cheeses. What a registrant should be like.

The best coffee in town & sausage rolls to die for… Very reasonably priced & friendly helpful staff Extremely happy customer..

I cannot rate this tea room highly enough. We received a very warm welcome and settled on a cream tea. The scones were warm and there was plentiful cream and homemade jam. Delicious! They support the local community bus so I’d encourage you to buy a book from the second hand book shelf in the tea room.

This was my 3 rd visit each time the food has been fantastic we’ve loved every dish .I’ll definitely be back soon . Thank you

Love this place and the staff . Always remember me when I phone . Food is so good and quick service . Would definitely recommend it too anyone

We came across this little gem by accident . What an amazing find. The staff were very welcoming, the hot chocolate was the best I have ever had and my partner said his cake and coffee were delicious. Will definitely be back to sample the food.

Staff very polite and enthusiastic we partook of a bacon sandwich each with my wife having sausage with hers. Both sandwiches were presented well and they tasted fantastic especially with the bread being so fresh.

Great food and great people, very friendly. Service was great and quick. Couldn't have asked for better. Really enjoyed our Sunday Carvery and will definitely be returning. Thanks again.

Lovely surroundings, excellent service and reasonably priced well-made coffee. My brother and I are on a surfing trip and have made this our morning coffee stop. Well worth a visit and getting an alcohol licence this week which adds another dimension.

We Always have a great night at this little pub. We don’t get travel to london that often but when we do this is our go to as guaranteed a great time and great atmosphere.
