The best restaurants in United Kingdom serving British food

This is a nice pub in Newport Pagnell. One of the older parts of Milton Keynes. Nice draft beers, pleasant atmosphere. I’d go back to the pub. I stayed in the attached Sean Revived Hotel. It was not so great, tired and shabby room.

we had visited this café previously had a really nice experience both service and food wise... what a difference this time absolutely no greeting whatsoever, no interaction, the blonde waitress was positively unfriendly as was the man we obtained our drinks from(no drink menu just pointed at the fridge) pannini's were very average one being overdone, packet crisps and packet mixed salad leaves with very thick balsamic vinegar poured over which totally overpowered any taste the 'salad' may have had.. to be frank we have not felt more unwelcome and disappointed and would suggest in such a popular tourist establishment the staff we met need to seriously consider a career change, we will not be returning or recommending The Buttery

Super food and nice atmosphere. The add on stellar service from Jake Stokes in the Bistro who really knows his wines and enhances the experience. Reasonably priced and great quality. Can only be very heartily recommended. Building in general is very interesting too.

Changes will be made if you ask Costa customer services to help (but this gets tiresome!) I received an apology and a free drink when I came across ageism, and it seemed to stop. Some visits go smoothly. Then a new visit is shocking again, and we can wait for too long, while staff chat, meander, and slowly serve those at the head of the queue. When my macaroni was ready, it was placed on the counter even though I was eating in and the order wasn't complete. "There's your order," said an assistant ... "The mocha coffee?" I asked. Oh ... it was coming. Did I want "chocolate sprinkles"? I agreed, but cocoa powder was shaken on. I waited again. The cup was plonked on the counter. No tray? A customer to my left saw this nonsense, reached for a tray, and handed it to me; she was kind but it was a used one. Another customer caught my eye and laughed. "It's even worse in Colchester!"

Perfect English tea rooms very popular with tourists and locals it seems. We wished we could have had time to visit for a second time! We will certainly pop in next time we are in the area. Marvellous hidden gem this is!

Excellent meal as always. It was a great place to celebrate our son’s 18th birthday and our waiter Lino really looked after us.

Such a beautiful country pub with a lovely calm and friendly atmosphere. The food is amazing and we will definitely be back soon. Highly recommended especially the roast on a Sunday and this place is absolutely worth a visit. The staff were all so friendly and welcoming. Really felt at home.

We had a very enjoyable Sunday afternoon at this lovely pub, it was packed but the service was good, the beer was excellent and the entertainment ('Adam in the hat') was brilliant. So good that they provide live music to liven up a Sunday afternoon!

My wife and I stayed for a week in April. We have holidayed in Crail for many years from Cumbria, used the Golf Hotel for meals and drinks in the past, which we found it to be brilliant, using the beer garden on many occasions after long coastal walks. But this was the first time staying there. We can only wish we had stayed before. The room was comfortable and had everything we needed. Water, coffee, tea and biscuits were topped up each morning. A quiet night’s sleep even it’s a public house and on Crail Main Street. We can honestly say the friendly staff made it for us. Always a smile and so helpful. Evening meals are cooked to perfect and a great choice, and snacks too, but the breakfasts were unbelievable. We don’t like to single anyone out, but Jackie, how you cater for everyone was beyond us. Your breakfast was a delight! Everything was cooked perfectly, no matter if you wanted, fried, poached, boiled. Pancakes were a delicious addition to breakfast. We needed nothing to eat all day!! There’s a quiet guest lounge and the bar is stocked with local beers and has a great atmosphere. We will be back…and we are, booked again for later in the year!! 5 star treatment…but my wife and I will give the Golf Hotel 6!!

WOW, what an amazing lunch today, me my partner and mum could not of asked for anything better, the service from Lotty was amazing as always, so welcoming, friendly and always goes the extra mile to serve us. The food was outstanding it felt like Christmas in March, turkey toast, Christmas pudding, coffee and baileys. 5 Star across the board. We absolutely love it here every Sunday for lunch. We'll done to all of you. Keep up the great work Lotty your amazing at your job.

Not a bad little pub with mediocre food, it was okay, nothing to write home about. However, one thing I do not like is the 10% service charge that is automatically added to the bill. I only found this out a week later as silly me, looked at the receipt when I removed it from my walking jacket pocket. There should be signs up stating this, and staff should advise you of this charge prior to payment, this is sneaky and deceitful. I won't be rushing back, and quite happy to promote this underhand charge to the wide world. Perhaps the pub owners should pay a decent wage to their staff instead of expecting customers to top up their salary? Stinks..!

Solía ser un lugar tan agradable, pero parece estar lleno de cosas difíciles ahora, especialmente en un fin de semana, permanece abierto hasta tarde, así que eso es un beneficio

We have visited this place many, many times. The food is generally lovely. However, they really need to change their front of house staff. Rude and unwelcoming and referring to my sister as ‘the wheelchair’ This person is the same on every occasion and it’s beyond me why an owner would want guests to be met by such a cold person. The young man behind the bar, however, was lovely. I don’t think we will continue our business here.

Had a great meal here last night! Everything was freshly made and the chunky chips were delicious. Sat outside initially in the newly made area which was utilized from part of the car park and was lovely. The food was a bit slow in arriving but when it did we could tell why - each of our meals were prepared fresh and tasted amazing! Had a lovely chat with the new landlady Emma and her partner and her brother who couldn’t do enough for us. Will definitely be returning and can’t recommend it highly enough!

Communication booking on fb message excellent and quick. I think maybe we picked the wrong Saturday evening, as a lot of the menu wasn’t available. Also it’s unusual, as the waitress takes food orders and you order and pay at the bar separately for drinks. 🍷 Food was nice. Busy pub and the river views are nice if it’s daytime. Toilets….. could do with sorting. Light bulb 💡 out in one, lock broke in another. I think I’d return for a nice drink by the river.
