The best restaurants in England

We had a super time yesterday with friends at the Fine Dining Evening at The Gallery Restaurant in Stamford College. You have to book up well in advance by email or phone as it is so popular. The ambiance of the restaurant was excellent, it’s busy but not noisy. The students who provided the table service (I think working for their for nvq level 2) were very professional and friendly. The food (I think nvq level 3 students) was excellent. Up to the standard of a very expensive and exclusive establishment. The Gallery Restaurant is a credit to the hard working students and staff. We will be back! We wish all the students very good luck in their future careers.

Lovely coffee shop, fresh made tuna baguette and a cup of tea for less than £5 us unheard of these days. Friendly staff and nice seating area upstairs

Popped in for a catch up with friends. Really pleasant feel to the place delicious coffee and friendly, helpful staff. Fantastic produce available in the shop.

This is a sad review as we learned that the new owners are closing the B and B in August for a indefinite period. We had a great time very welcoming and a great breakfast. Good luck Gerry and Roger.

Seen this dippy on tour trail lead us to the cafe for lunch after a bit pricey but over all just enough to satisfy our appetite long wait to be served perhaps ? Still enjoyed the day

I didn't know this site, I ordered a plant that had been catching my eye for a while, the service is great for delivery and super friendly! I am happy to learn that it is also a company from our beautiful province of Luxembourg! ☺️ you can fall in love with their pretty plants with your eyes closed!

Visited here after reading the reviews and it didn’t disappoint. Lovely staff and delicious food - best pad Thai ever according to my partner and that’s saying something. Absolutely recommend,

Gran bar de vinos y ubicación brillante. También una tienda de discos en la parte trasera. Ricardo es genial y también lo es Ashely y todo el equipo - muy servicial y hacer la compra de vino fácil sin importar su experiencia o gusto. También dan consejos útiles. Te recomendaría que vinieras a casa de Ricardo si estuvieras en Church Street y lo vieras a él, Ashley y al equipo.

Happened upon Lulu’s when leaving the Osteopath over the road. The chalked sign of ‘Salt Beef’ dragged me in. I spent five minutes in the aisles, deciding which pickled gherkins and which peppers to buy - when I was treated to an informal education on which were the best Gherkins and why (brine salted - tastes like they do in the states :), traditionally they were salted to be transported) … which after the taste test challenge- I had to take them and change my mind from what I originally selected (vinegar pickled) ! Some hot peppers too, because supermarket Jalepenos don’t really kick ! These peppers will be going on everything. And I left with a hot salt beef bagel - which was superb. Promised to return this weekend with the family, as I know they’ll love it as much as I did.

Enjoyed every minute of these Asian inspired fusion tacos. Thank you to the lovely staff for the recommendations

Awsome pub for class beer, class craic and class people! Swan is the one for the best night out in Newport (Shropshire)❤️.

Path up from Lymouth central car park (free after 6pm) is steep but steps are well lit. Ring the bell for entry! Only a few tables available to cover hotel guests and non-residents, so be sure to book. Food must be pre ordered, but is then timed beautifully. Staff could not be more helpful. Whole atmosphere is so different to some modern sea-side facilities, we appreciated the care taken and interesting decor (local pottery figues, wall of interesting mirrors). But access may be a problem to some.

Have been meaning to try the N&N for ages. I had a couple of days to kill in Brid on my own, so had planned one visit there and a couple of Fish restaurants in the area. I’d been to the Queens pub many times in the past so was a tad unprepared for what had become of it. It used to be a pretty downtrodden Brid boozer but then picked up when the current owners spruced it up and introduced live bands and a vibrant, young client base. The N&N has now melded with the pub. I happened to visit on what seemed to be the only sunny day in Summer which showed off the large patio area in its full glory. I instantly fell in love with it, and that’s before I even got hold of the menus. Now, full disclosure, I’m a slightly repentant carnivore trying hard to switch up plant and dial down roadkill. I have several vegan friends. None of whom look at all well, so I’m struggling for motivation here. I’ve ‘done’ several vegetarian places, but never been to a vegan restaurant. I’d previously seen Beth, the incredible head chef, on Andi Oliver’s Fabulous Feasts. Her Bridlington Tarts (grow up!), blew Andi away and I’ve not thought about anything else since I saw them. I’ve got two in my caravan fridge now. They won’t make it past the completion of the next paragraph. Anyway, my point. Despite my vegan virginity, I knew there’s more to it than nut roasts and veg curry. I chose the wild waffles, chips and a flat white. Let me explain the wild waffles as best as I can. It’s waffle shaped. There’s a hint of oregano, basil and has a smoky aftertaste. There’s avocado in it and some caramelised sweet walnuts. Then there’s a creamy maple cashew sauce over the top. That didn’t help you all did it? Well, whatever this mind-blowing masterpiece did to my senses, I’m not entirely sure. A tear may have been shed, I did hear Mozart’s requiem in my head, even though Joni Mitchell was playing through the speakers. And the chips, well, these weren’t anything like I’d previously experienced. Triple cooked because once isn’t enough as we all know. Fluffy on the inside and crisp on the outside. I think they were dusted with a paprika based seasoning which was just perfect. It was precisely at this point in my afternoon of gluttony where I started reconsidering my planned visits to fish restaurants. The chips would be a disappointment. I would forever regret not revisiting N&N the next day. I’m a tart down now… thanks for asking. Now I do know a thing or two about coffee. I also know a lot about real ale as my waistline will testify. The coffee they use is nicely balanced with nutty tones (No idea what that means but everybody says it). I asked for a flat white which should show off the coffee flavour without too much milk masking as can be the case with cappuccino. There are a range of draught keg beers on offer at the bar and some bottled beers. There are some excellent cask real ale offerings in Brid, including the magnificent Three Bs micro pub and the nearby Ship Inn, so having at least one cask real ale on offer would certainly have attracted my attention. Maybe even a home-brew to dovetail with the theme of foraging and natural ingredients? I’m now craving a lovely plum porter. Lunch tomorrow will be more of the same. My voyage to veganism is far from complete but it’s clear my friends are doing it all wrong. One tart survives, as does the fish I planned to dine on tomorrow.

What can I say about this fantastic bar that hasn't already been said in the other reviews!? Only that for me this place is a real destination spot, an exciting trip out and always somewhere I suggest when meeting friends. I think about it in advance, remembering how much I enjoyed my previous visit. Seriously, this place is that good! The array of choice is unbelievable, with table menus displaying details of these unusual Belgian beauties. It's a fine dining experience (but with drinks), and I always discover a new one that blows my mind, by how delicious it tastes. This time it was a 13% brew on draught. I've never tasted anything quite like that in my life. Obviously these are served in the appropriate sized matching glasses. I wish I knew the name of it but it was the last one of the night! 😂 Bar staff are always friendly and knowledgable if you have have any questions about the beers, there is a real love here for what they do. The atmosphere is spot on (usually) chilled out, people chatting, enjoying themselves, unintrusive music playing in the background, great decor, subtle. Everything for me feels right, feels authentic and is as it should be. - However, after arriving on Friday evening and one drink in came on the Live music which was a complete opposite of what makes this place so fantastic. This is the reason for my 4 star review and not the 5 stars it truly deserves. The band played Oasis covers, Backstreet boys, and other Dad/Mum rock, it was virtually impossible to chat any longer, due to the volume, but we somehow managed to do this. After a few songs in the singer of the band ridiculed us for not joining in with his dated abhorent racket. It was a bit aggressive and uncalled for really, we didn't mean to hurt his feelings by not clapping, we just weren't into it, and it was forced upon us. I don't think many people were into it really. I listen to everything from Classical music to Black Metal, and of course I listened to Oasis in 2000s. I love music, but this was bad! It felt like a football hooligans party and we had somehow been caught up in the middle of it. I know this sort of thing is still popular in some places, but it was like being in a tacky karoke bar. We could take no more, we were torn, but had to leave. What a relief to get away from that place (with that music playing!) I was surprised to be honest that Tripleb would have booked someone like that as it's not really in keeping with the bar itself, and made it feel like any old crappy Worcester bar while Oasis was being wailed from the speakers. Bah! We did however, return to the bar (because it is so great!) and the hoped the band had finished. Last song. Hurrah! I appologise for my long review, but I had a lot to say as the band did invade our planned evening. In future I will keep an eye out for bands playing and see if it's something I would like. I will be back! Cheers Duncan

Fabulous food in a fabulous restaurant. The staff were very informative and helpful. The ambiance was friendly and warm on a cold autumn night. We will definitely be back and will make a point of visiting your other restaurants
