The best restaurants in United Kingdom serving British food

Always pay a visit when we are in the area in my opinion it’s the best chippy around

Excellent food and service, cooked to perfection. Recommended.

Kleines gemütliches Café mit richtig guter Frühstücksauswahl (von full breakfast über Panini, Bagels bis zu wraps) zu angemessenen Preisen. Sehr nette Bedienung.

Chill environment, prefectly seasoned and cooked to perfection.

Based on other reviews, I went here with high expectations. The food and drink exceeded tham in every way. I thought that, with the owner being Italian, they might do decent Italian food. They don't: they do sensational Italian food, and that's from someone who doesn't usually choose italian food. My main was seafood linguini with garlic bread at 15.95. When it arrived, i thought that the portion didn't look huge, but after I'd fought my way through 5 very large shell-on king prawns, about 15 mussels and 20 chunks of calamari, plus linguini, all covered in a rich tomato source, I realised otherwise. Sweet was lemon cheesecake, served with vanilla ice cream, fresh strawberries and fresh raspberries at 6.95. Washed down with a lovely pint of IPA and a pint of Old Peculier, the total cost was just under £30. Sensational value for this quality. My friend had the vegetarian quiche, which was also excellent. The pub is a delight; very traditional with lots of quiet corners and a lovely outside seating area for sunny days like when I visited. Lots of choice of cask beer: there were 8 on, mostly from local breweries, with a mild and an old ale. The locals are very friendly: indeed, I was chatting to the very same 2 locals someone else complained about and gave a 1* review for. They were really funny and we had a great time. I guess if you don't like humour, go to a boring pub full of non-people rather than a characterful pub like this. I can think of very few other places that offer this kind of quality and value: to be precise, none. Worth 6 stars.

We booked a last-minute dinner at the Royal George for 12 people (with just a couple of hours’ notice!) and were absolutely blown away by the experience. We’re on holiday in Appledore and this evening was easily a highlight of our trip. The team couldn’t have been more accommodating – they gave us a private room, which made it feel extra special. Service was exceptional from the moment we arrived. We were never left waiting for anything – drinks flowed, food came out promptly, and the staff were friendly, attentive, and genuinely warm. The food? Incredible. The burgers were terrific, the steaks were melt-in-the-mouth tender, the mussels were fresh and full of flavour, and the fish curry was perfectly spiced and absolutely beautiful. They even went above and beyond by sending us home with a takeaway portion of the chef’s crumble of the day for a family member who couldn’t make it. Such a thoughtful touch. And yes, our dog Barney was welcomed too – which made the whole evening feel even more inclusive and relaxed. We left full, happy, and very grateful. The Royal George is an absolute gem. Highly recommend!

Absolutely wonderful meal here on a Saturday night Friendly service, great music being played and a really interesting menu Food was fresh and delicious beautifully presented and cooked to perfection Great wine list also with a great list of cocktails also The team even let us stay in our 9 metre long motorhome in the carpark for free over night so I could enjoy a drink Highly recommended 10 out of 10

Sunday lunch with friends (4). We all took a roast @ circa £25 each. I had the pork which was tough, barely warm, and fairly tasteless. The black pudding and crackling were good. The apple sauce underwhelmed, a little bit sweet, not much flavour. Veg were uninspired. Overall unimpressed. Similarly my wife did not think much of her beef. Dessert (Apple streusel) was too dry, I didn't finish it. Double espresso was served in a large cup, and went cold before the dessert arrived. Only one real ale to choose from.

Have driven past this a number of times. Just off the M25 on a roundabout. Plenty of parking. Have to register to park. Fantastic menu. Good value. Not cheap but great streaks. Extremely friendly service. Really nice inside. A little surprised by this but should not be. Good bar. Great ambience. Clearly very popular. A great treat. Lots of special from the app if you have it. In the area? Great place to eat with the family.

Went for breakfast this morning only to be told that there were no tables available. However, the cafe was only half full and non of the tables were reserved. When I went past 20 minutes later the tables were still empty.

My wife and I ate dinner here, I had mussels to start which were ok but the portion was quite small (only 8) then I had the seafood linguine which was quite nice, my wife had the spaghetti Bolognese for main, for which she was quite disappointed. On the whole the food was ok and service was good.

My family and I have visited several times now. Lovely atmosphere. Excellent service. Our meals are always delicious. The menu is extensive making it difficult to choose.I had the beef and ale pie today which was scrumptious, the beef melted in my mouth. We will no doubt be back soon.

Yesterday we had a lovely dinner at The Crown Inn and enjoyed atmosphere, food and most of all very pleasant staff! It is perfect! First we visited the Church opposite the Inn. We had great support of a staff member to let us watch the beautiful church. Enjoyed the Nice moment for my wife! Can really recommend the Crown Inn!

First time my partner & I have ate here, if you don’t mind paying that little bit more for good food this place is a MUST. From the warm welcome we received upon arrival till we left can’t fault this place at all. All of the staff were very attentive always making sure we had everything we needed/ wanted. Both our meals were of the highest quality, the steak was cooked to perfection & the chicken was full of flavour. Nice ambience to the place with piano bar style music playing in the background.

Highly recommend for a Sunday Roast, beautiful setting and lovely food
