The best restaurants in United Kingdom serving British food

Recently moved to the area. Thought we’d try the local. Everyone was incredibly friendly. We ordered the pizza to share with a glass of wine. I have to say the pizza felt handmade and we thoroughly enjoyed it. Superb local that’s family friendly and a feast atmosphere. We look forward to coming back! Thanks to Callum for the local recommendations

Great location, lovely view of the water from the deck but shade is precious in the midday sun. Had a ploughman’s lunch which looked small when it arrived, but I was full when I finished eating. Restaurant was busy so service was a little slow, but otherwise great.

La comida estaba absolutamente golpeando. Salió el nuevo menú y pedí el cordero kofta que estaba absolutamente delicioso omg. 10 / 10 volvería a pedirlo al 100%. Definitivamente vale la pena el precio también. También pedí el melba sundae de melocotón y frambuesa que era tan refrescante y los sabores combinaban tan bien. Podría hacer con un poco menos de migaja, pero estaba absolutamente golpeando. Gritarle a Titas, que era una de las chefs del día, el joven tenía unos modales encantadores. Cosas encantadoras. Recomendaría ir a comer o cenar con la familia, o incluso solo.

Room comfortable, staff friendly, enjoyable stay

9 of us went here for Sunday lunch, it was a very disappointing experience! There was no choice of meat left, the staff didn’t know if there was a veggie option. The food was cold when it finally arrived. We ordered sides which never arrived, despite asking 3 different members of staff and they were still added to the bill! The staff were rude, inattentive and chewing gum. Wouldn’t go back.

THE BEST bubble tea spot in oxf!!!! i have had way too many to count and it slaps every time :)))

great service and good atmosphere. highly recommended

We organised a company quiz night in one of the rooms on the side of the pub. The Landlord made this effortless, so chilled and accommodating. The bar staff were friendly and helpful and the food was great. We will definitely be going back.

Went here Good Friday for food (or ‘hoping for food’ ) Placed order through the app , received a message & email to say order successful, only a 15 min wait for food, MONEY TAKEN from my bank account . All good we thought . 5 mins later a staff member comes across to say they’ve stopped serving food early 9mins before we ordered. A refund will be issued . 6 days later, no refund received! Being passed between head office and the pub itself . Why does the app take orders if food not being served ??

Absolutely awful experience. First (and probably last) time I'll ever visit Supposed to meet a colelague. Waited at front counter to be served. Manageress had her back to me for ages whilst chatting to a customer Eventually another server came forward Pretty busy but two tables free, one right by entrance and one by window. Asked if we could sit there Table was reserved for one hour hence so said we would vacate when the folks booking turned up. No not possible as computer couldn't handle table numbers. Siad I'm sure it would be fine Sat down and there was a little sign saying table booked from 1pm so please vacate 5 minutes beforehand. Thought to myself no issue then Then said Manageress turned up. Really rude and hostile from the get go. Leaned in, talked over me , stated she wouldn't serve me (twice). Talked over me, barked "listen" and when I said pardon then just proceeded to parrot her own take Having asked in the foyer to speak with the overall Manager, I was told there was actually another cafe area we could have gone to. The GM apologised although I still have the feeling nothing would be said to Restaurant Manageress Overall very disappointing and I would avoid going back on principle

Great pub. Love the history on the walls.

Beautiful meal , one of the best I’ve had.don’t need to say any more , lovely little place , staff are great, well done guys 😋

Absolutely lovely cafe, we stayed at the linked hotel which was also very nice and clean with very friendly and helpful staff who kindly organised our early breakfast before we set off for an early morning Rally, the service in the cafe was exceptional, nothing was too much bother for the lady who went out her way and opened up early for us which was greatly appreciated. The breakfast rolls and coffee were just what we needed, she was very welcoming and we couldn’t have asked for better service. Highly recommend popping in and you can also see their beautiful black cat Rogue who’s super friendly and loves a pet.

Menu is a bit limited but the food was ok, requested hit sauce if some kind and they only do ketchup or mayo which was a bit annoying if you prefer something with an extra kick. They don't do anything on the menu that has any sort of spice just very basic flavours but all in all great service and atmosphere

Called today for dinner. Fish was thin and not fresh. It was served with skin on. Chips went really hard. There was probsbly a spoonful of peas. The bread was not fresh. The whole meal was tasteless. Someone needs to read this and pick up. Improve. The price is cheap. But id rather pay double and have a quality meal. The girls worked their socks off. Its a shame the fryer lets the place down. We wont be returning.
