The best restaurants in England

Great place great staff great food a really good atmosphere and a wonderfully painted floor which caught my eye upon walking through the door

My partner and I visited Swirlz for National Ice Cream Day! We had a seat outside, and enjoyed our ice creams. My partner was given his ice cream at the till point, whilst I had around a 10-15 minute wait for my waffles, by which time Matt had finished his ice cream. It would have been better for them both to have been served together. We disn’t see anywhere on their Facebook that they did a doggy gelato. If we had been aware of this, we would have taken our puppy along.

A very pleasant coffee shop. Full of character staff are very good. Coffees served in unusual glasses but somehow it pretty cool. I had a gingerbread chai latte which was beautiful. Will come again. Thank you

Had a wonderful visit this afternoon with my Mum. We went for the afternoon tea and we were not disappointed. For £12.50 each, we have two cakes, a scone each with all the trimmings, a selection of sandwiches and a pot of tea! Good value for money. The staff were polite and friendly. When visiting, make sure to pre-book your afternoon tea! Will be attending again. 100% recommend if you love your afternoon tea! There is also a lovely sitting area and garden outside for when the weather is a little bit warmer!

Such a friendly place, dog friendly too which is lovely and lady but not least a very tasty Toasted Sandwich, a generous portion and truly yummy. Highly recommend Myrtle’s cafe

We visited with 6 of us and a baby. The service was very quick and friendly. I am currently dairy and soya free and was able to have something to eat and drink (which is usually difficult when out!). The family was all impressed with the lunch selection.

Wolfmann’s is a pretty unique place in South Shields. Great healthy food, lovely surroundings and very nice staff. Our favourites are the Korean Fried Chicken and anything from the sea! There’s a distinctly Asian vibe with lots of the food but they also do great breakfasts, burgers and a fantastic Sunday lunch. There is also a lovely selection of cakes in the cabinet if you fancy something sweet. We need to make sure that good quality neighbourhood eateries like this stay the distance, so if you are looking for somewhere in South Shields that won’t disappoint, definitely try Wolfmann’s!

Very friendly staff. Good food. But a 47 min wait for food. And 20 mins just to get the coffees. If we’d been warned that there was a long wait we would have opted to continue our journey. We lost a hour for a cooked breakfast 😕. Please give your customers the chance to choose wether to wait or pass, they’ll be really grateful.

Another night of great food, freshly prepared & all served with a smile. Such a great little restaurant, that’s a credit to the Wakefield dining experience. We would thoroughly recommend.

Best vegan place in South Shields drinks are lush especially the lovely peppermint milkshakes also the cheeses are just too nice

Having ordered my meal with my family, I asked to use the restroom. I was advised that it was out of order and I could go to the library third floor. The walk turned out to be 0.8 miles there and back, taking me 25 minutes by the time I returned. By the time I got back my family had finished their meals and my tea stewed. When I spoke to them they told me that I did not have to go to the library and I could o f gone to a neighboring business if I did not want to walk that far. They refused to refund my meal. As an elderly tourist who did not know the town, this was not a good introduction to Nottingham. I’m not a fan of negative reviews but this was a poor way to treat a customer

We booked this place a month in advanced due to the reviews. We had the booking confirmed in writing. We arrived 15 mins early to be told that they had received another booking for 8 a "few days" earlier. We did mention that we were stood there and our booking was earlier, but I found the chef rude and unaccommodating! He offered ZERO solutions to the problem he had created. Would not offer delivery to out hotel (5 mins away) even though we had 4 hungry children with us. Pizza reviews may be great but customer service is a zero stars !

We privately hired Kitchen 91 for the evening for our ten year wedding anniversary. Poppy, Matthew and their whole team just blew us away with their kindness and attentiveness. The food was absolutely incredible, everything tasted delicious. The ambience was brilliant and they couldn’t have been more helpful. Hopefully they’ll have us back to do another. They truly made it a special evening. Love this place.

Attended the restaurant for our wedding anniversary, the decor is nice and the service is friendly. Popadoms for starter was nice, then we ordered starters & main courses. The portion sizes are small and the prices are quite high. My main course prawn curry only had 5 medium sized prawns in it with minimal amount of sauce. The dishes had nice flavours but expensive for the size of the portions. We paid £76 for two starters, two mains with one rice & one naan bread & two small drinks.

My friend and I had been bought afternoon tea at Georgies yard. It was a wonderful afternoon and would highly recommend. All food freshly baked or locally sourced, so supporting other local businesses. Everything delicious and constant supply of fresh hot tea kept coming. Hosts ensuring the whole time everything was to our liking.
