The best restaurants serving American food in England

We use a lot of weatherspoons during our travels and found that in most cases the food and service to be genrally good and we found the Bear as no exception and in fact we rated it quite highly as the food and service here were excellent ... If I were being picky I would say that our table should have been wiped down when it was cleared ( spilled drink not food ) but overall that doesn't detract from giving the Bear the full 5* and a Thank You for a great meal.

A new manager has recently taken over this pub. Already the atmosphere has improved. We came this evening as it was the first quiz night. This was a great success and we can't wait to come back again next week.

Had a meal here last night with a couple of friends. Was quite a quiet atmosphere when we walked in but this didn’t deter us. We sat down, and the waitress came and took our order. We got our drinks and our mains, on top of that I ordered a side dish for myself. Here’s the thing, our drinks never turned up and neither did my side dish of popcorn chicken. The mains arrived after about 20 minutes but we were all very underwhelmed by them. I could’ve made a better burger for myself at home. When we requested the bill, at first the waitress actually brought it to us with the drinks and the side dish we had not received. She swiftly realised these were never brought to us and was apologetic. Too little too late really. The bill was then amended and we paid for the terrible food and experience. Oh and it gets worse. Just before we headed out I went to the restroom and was followed by another waitress/member of staff who said that, I wasn’t allowed to use the toilets unless I had eaten at the restaurant. I proceeded to tell her that I had had a meal in the diner, to which she responded that she hadn’t realised. We were literally sitting opposite the kitchen in the middle of the quiet diner, and one of the only groups there. I left angrily. I can only recommend to people that you should never eat at this restaurant. The staff, the food and the overall experience was horrendous.

The waiter was very nice I have no complaints about the service how ever the food was so poor I had to wright a review.basic flavourless tough chewy steak,soggy floppy apple pie my son enjoyed his overpriced bacon burger but the missus hated her entire meal will not ever return..

This place is great if you have kids who won’t sit still in a restaurant for long but you want decent food! Took family over from Italy and even they were shocked at how good the pizzas were! So much better to let the kids burn off some energy while waiting for our food and couldn’t fault the friendly quick service on a Saturday lunch time.

Terrible service, wouldnt take order from bar or table. Had to use a app. App was not straight forward. Ordered a burger meal with a free drink. Couldn't order free drink on app. Asked about free drink with meal, staff would not except that app was wrong. So no drink. No knifes & forks on table had to find from another table. Food was just thrown in front of us. Food cold. No customer service. Avoid.

Brilliant spot for lunch or dinner and amazing food and service everyone was so helpful and happy and the quality of the food was incredible tasted so fresh. Shout out to Thomas and the other manger on shift who were excellent!

Beast of a place. Ask for Cory. He knows his stuff. He helped me with food and drinks. And really made my time the best. A good vibe and. A place to visit certainly in. Colchester.

Have been eating here since it opened. It’s not a very busy place. It does just enough to keep going. Open all through the lock down. Just a Couple of months back they have started arbitrarily using a temperature HEAD GUN. There is no sign saying this is requirement for dining in. As such it cannot be enforced. The busiest Restrauants are not using this HEAD GUN. However on a Visit last week, with a small child, I was told the gun had to pointed to the child’s head.I flatly refused. There is currently, no government or council requirement to do this. It should be clearly stated at the counter or on the door of the restaurant if this is the process to dine in. Neither of us were sick and I always have my mask on, even when walking in the street. Compulsive hand and face washing. BK on the high street clearly states in writing, no personal details, no service. Businesses must inform the customer of their practice in writing and be clearly visible. Having another human point directly at ones head with a gun shaped object, with a hole at the front, albeit a small one, can be shocking.Seeing so many films and images of people being killed in that fashion. One only has to see what’s going on with BLM across the pond. The symbolism of having a gun of any type pointed at a small child, or even an adult is wrong. Especially when we are not in a lockdown and things are not that bad at the moment. The staff are well away from the seating area and behind huge wrap around counter Perspex glass that almost reaches half way to the ceiling. If any of you came to enquire about the food, well the burgers are always fresh and never frozen. For my liking they are too fat and chunky meat, and can be a little tough at times. The chicken burger is small and can be dry, and at almost 8£ one would expect organic, or at the very least free range, but no. The skinny chill fries are usually my favorite, depending on who has made the chill that week. Sum up, fat burger is expensive for what it is. Especially when one has Five Guys (grass fed cows), Hache steak award winning burgers, Brid, KFC, Macs, BK and a whole host of eateries in Camden Market, all a stones throw from this place, and at similar, if not better prices!! And non of them point guns at your head.

Français : Nous connaissions le Ed's de Picadily (parfait❤), et avons voulu essayer celui-là. Tout d'abord on nous places sur une table non nettoyé, voyant notre réaction la serveuse nous change de table...La commande fut rapide et le service tout autant, peu d'attente entre les deux.Une fois notre plat terminé, nous regardions la carte des desserts quand la serveuse (Nadya) nous apporte directement l'addition SANS nous avoir demandé si nous voulions un dessert, en faite elle nous a simplement mis dehors!!Cette "Nadya" avait l'air de faire la tête tout au long du service.Ce sera donc notre première et DERNIÈRE visite chez Ed's Victoria Station English:We knew Picadily's Ed's (perfect), and wanted to try that one. First we are placed on an uncleaned table, seeing our reaction the waitress changes us table ... The order was fast and the service as much, little wait in between. Once our dish finished, we were looking at the dessert menu when the waitress (Nadya) brings us the bill without asking us if we wanted a dessert, in fact she just put us out! This "Nadya" seemed to be the head of the service. This will be our first and last visit at Ed's Victoria Station

This is one of the better places in the area, you are welcome to eat there and sit there without harassment. They tell you when they are closing from cleaning and the tone is nice. The food is good, doesn't taste like in the US but it's good and they are quick. Only thing is the stairs, but we made it even with the suitcases.

Ottimo cibo , locale accogliente e personale disponibile e professionali , abbiamo consumato un ottimo piatto di carne roast beaf

Very dirty pub have to try find a member of staff to ask them to clean table Food cold very small portion of pasta overall its very disappointing shame coz other wetherspoon are great but mossy well not managed right and staff shows with attitude of staff

We visited the pub last night after going to Manchester. The pub was very busy however it was filthy dirty, glasses and empty plates everywhere on tables on the bar. The ladies toilets were disgusting, very dirty I wouldn’t use them. Staff were very miserable and some doing more than others. One male member of staff kept going into the kitchen and coming out eating pizza and other things, standing at the end of the bar. Very unprofessional. Litter on the floor, tables not cleaned, empty glasses all over. Very unpleasant visit and I will not be going again. Let’s JD Wetherspoon’s down.
