The best restaurants serving American food in England

We visited for my husband‘s birthday. We were a table of five and arrived at 7 pm. On arrival. We were the only diners in the restaurant. Three other tables were occupied by the time that we left 9 pm. This was a sat night. The menu has changed fewer choices or maybe fewer fine dining choices. The signature dish seemed to be the steak either steak on the stone or cooked so we opted for steak. The menu even contains a little joke. “Don’t ask the chef to cook well or medium well “ I opted for medium rare so when it arrived, I struggled to find the pink meat. I also ordered some garlic bread for our daughters, it arrived smothered in cheese but no mention that it would have cheese both daughters don’t eat cheese . The waiting staff require additional training. A female server. Didn’t even apologise when I complained about my steak instead told me it would be a further 15 minutes for a new piece , that wouldn’t work as everyone else had been served. They would’ve been nearly finished when mine arrived. Her solution was to scrap the order all together, but I came to a restaurant to eat. That wasn’t a good solution, the senior server, or maybe the manager later came over and offered to compensate for the steaks and provided a discount, which is really good of him, the chips could’ve been triple cooked for that crispy restaurant feel they suspiciously look like they may have come out of a packet also . After we complained about the steaks, we didn’t receive any additional service. We had to request a desert menu, being gluten-free. I asked what was gluten-free on the menu. I was told nothing it’s not completely unusual but usually you’re offered either ice cream or sorbet. We had the feeling that we were no longer wanted so forfeited the deserts for our table of five, asked for the bill and left, one of our diners was in a wheelchair, no point did anyone offer to open the door so we navigate of the double doors ourselves and left disappointed . Positively the cocktails and the beers were delicious. My recommendation would be hire some staff that smile or are attentive, become a bar and do what you are good at. This used to be one of my husband’s favourite restaurants in Southend. I’m not sure will visit again though. Bad times!

Very friendly staff that made us feel very welcome. Food was lovely and served quickly. Great menu choices

I don't see the point in coffee places when pubs exist. Go to a pub and have a pint. My girlfriend loves this place however. Great coffee she says, and good cakes.

Great variety, very tasty, lots of drinks options. Order at table is very easy and convenient. First choice for a celebration as everyone is catered for. Staff super friendly and good people. Quiz nights are a great addition

We have been to this lovely place a few times now and love the quality and quantity of their food, all dished up with great service. This time we stopped off for breakfast and then headed to the haynes motor museum and when we finished there, we made our way back down again for our lunch/dinner at this wonderfull place. WE LOOK FOREWARD TO OUR NEXT VISIT. KEEP UP THE HARD GREAT WORK.

Christmas Day was excellent couldn’t fault it, food and staff lovely plus all the added extras great thank you all very much

Había estado en su ubicación anterior para cenar (había oído que era el restaurante de Seth Troxler), que era genial, así que decidimos reservar su brunch sin fondo con un grupo de amigos (8 personas). La comida era estupenda, seguían trayendo Prosecco sin hacernos esperar y los panqueques ilimitados fueron lo más destacado. El personal fue muy amable (definitivamente recomiendo a Ken) y servicial incluso con nuestro amigo que es intolerante al gluten. Definitivamente voy a volver Bien vale la pena el dinero.

Have been visiting this place for half a century now, and witnessed its ups and downs. It's a rare survivor, but not in the best of health at present, andnow without any real idea of who its customers are. Beer still good though.

Rewelacyjna restauracjia pyszne jedzenie, wyśmienite drinki, przemiła obsługa 😍 Wszystko ma najwyższym poziomie. Świetne miejsce na organizację imprez, spotkanie sie z rodzina czy znajomymi. Zachwyciła wszystkich moich przyjaciół swoim niespotykanym klimatem. Lokal godny polecenia! 😁

First timer here, and I’d say the food and service was on point. Was surprisingly empty when we walked in (about 6pm on a bank holiday) and so was a little weary at first, but once we ‘settled in’ and started eating, we were more than content. Prices are a little steep, but I’d argue this is quality over quantity; even though we certainly had quantity as well. I’d be amazed if anyone could sit through four servings as the menu lays out. Decor was good, food obviously, cheesecake uncertain (I made the mistake of ordering when already full, would’ve probably enjoyed it more otherwise). Didn’t catch her name either, but a shout out to the waitress (youngish with presumably dyed blonde hair) who was pleasant and welcoming. Quite likely to return here if ever in the area.

Mi primera visita a Which Wich, pedí un sándwich de albóndiga italiana regular para llevar. Mientras que este contenía algunos elementos de relleno adicionales como pepperoni, el sándwich era similar a la marinara de albóndigas de Subway. Los ingredientes adicionales realmente no zhuzh el sándwich como esperaba, y estaba bien. No muy caliente, los salamis eran un poco masticables y sabían a grasa y el precio de casi £ 9 para un producto regular (aproximadamente 6 ") se sentía increíblemente sobreprecio, incluso para la ciudad. Quizás la culpa de una mala elección por mi parte, pero dado el costo y mi agobio, dudo que vuelva a probar esta salida.

If your looking for a great venue and great food give this a try very good for a steak in a fantastic setting

Was really looking forward to my oysters, but when I got there, the place was closed down :( I am just trying to save anyone that is into seafood a trip to Dalston

Came to visit to celebrate a birthday within my family and had very high expectations. The hotel itself and hotel staff met these expectations, unfortunately this is where the positives end. The restaurant was freezing and we had to keep our coats of after being seated. When ordering drinks several members of our party noticed dirty plates and glasses, they were covered in hair and marks. We were then informed the wine on the printed menu was no longer available, this was understandable as things do go out of stock however for a restaurant which presents itself to be so high quality we expected better. We were then informed the main ordered by half our party was not available. We expressed our disappointment as this could have been shared before orders were placed, as the (already very limited) menu now didn’t accommodate to the dietary needs of most of our party. We decided to leave the restaurant, much to our disappointment, and had no option but to walk across the city centre with elderly family members to find somewhere else to eat. On leaving we were informed by the manager we would be charged for a drink which never arrived and a bottle of wine which wasn’t touched. After speaking to other customers on our way out we found others had returned their meal 3 times within one sitting, adding to our disappointment. Staff members explained that they had had a busy few days, serving as an excuse as to our experience, however this simply suggested they were aware of the quality of service that we would receive and still decided not to inform us and seat a party of 7 which they clearly couldn’t handle. The whole experience was unacceptable.

ate here with 2 friends when we visited Frinton. The food was fresh, healthy and delicious. Followed up the main course with Bakewell tart made with almond flour - delicious. Staff were very courteous and friendly.
