The best restaurants serving British food in England

Living in Tadcaster we go to this cafe near the War Memorial. Service is prompt and we regularly buy teas, coffees, scones & tea cakes. Have been recently been with a group of friends as well. I tend to book to avoid having to go elsewhere as we like The Tea Lounge best of all.

We’ve just had the most lovely afternoon tea at The Wold’s Edge. Amazing amount of food and beautifully presented. The staff were friendly and welcoming. Fully recommend this.

Great food and service here. Had the large breakfast and the portion was truly large - I was defeated!

It feels like home from home, everyone is so friendly and welcoming. The food is fresh, presented beautifully and at a decent price! You aren't just getting a great meal or drink though, you become part of the community to help people develop their catering and hospitality skills. You'll leave feeling full of nice food and the positive warm fuzzy vibes

Precis: Wow! Excellent! Any other superlative you choose! Full review: What a wonderful gem of a find! From the start the welcome was warm and friendly. Nothing was too much trouble for Gary, Donna and their team; what a diamond they have found in Jack! The quality of the furnishings is very high, the fittings top class and the home made biscuits in the bedroom were delicious! Even a welcome decanter of sherry to start off your stay! The hallway walls are adorned with award plaques from numerous organisations! The grounds were extensive and very well kept. We had read about the wild red squirrels and hoped we may get to spot one - no fears there; we watched them running around the garden and feeder each day! Now for the food! Absolutely excellent! Each evening started at 7pm with canapés and good conversation with fellow guests, most of whom seem to be repeat visitors, with good reason! Gary is very personable and quite the bon viveur, his knowledge of wine is excellent, after all by his own admission he has been in the game for a good number of years! The four course dinner menu is set, no choices, but the menu is on display each morning and I'm sure that alternatives could be organised if enough notice were given. Each course was exquisite, served piping hot (where appropriate!) and presented beautifully, as was the table in general. Service was efficient, friendly and knowledgeable. Breakfast was just as good! Hazel Bank has seven rooms and the restaurant is open only to residents. All this means that each guest gets very personal, and personable, service from start to finish! If you think that this review is a little enthusiastic then I doubt you've visited! Don't get me wrong, it isn't for everybody and nowhere is totally perfect, but Hazel Bank gets VERY close!

Just got fish chips and gravy from here It was very nice Nice big fish and a big portion of chips cooked really well We wilp be back

If you’re looking for comfort food in a cozy atmosphere, this is the place! Delicious meals & friendly service. We loved it!

Great full breakfast. Proper old school.

A lovely place for coffee and food

Huge potions, great prices, very friendly and welcoming. It's definitely a hidden gem, and my new favourite chippy.

Called in today for a takeaway ‘Gourmet Baguette’ (smoked Salmon, cream cheese, salad, sweet chilli sauce and a bag of crisps) which was delicious. We also enjoyed coffee and walnut cake and good coffee. We will certainly return next time we are in the beautiful unspoiled village of Dent. We took our lunch to eat outside in a field near the main car park which had beautiful views and picnic tables. The carpark has car charging points, toilets and a disabled loo which was clean.

Surprise family Sunday lunch to celebrate my husband's 80th birthday. Everything was just as we hoped it would. Wonderful food, lovely atmosphere, friendly efficient service but not in any way intrusive, fresh flowers on the table. It was the perfect place - as relaxed and comfortable as being at home, but no one had to cook or wash up!

Lovely stopping off point after a long walk. First class food- both the evening meal and the breakfast. Lots of little extra touches that made the stay perfect including a place to leave soggy boots to dry off so they were nice and toastie the next morning. Welcoming host who made this solo female walker feel safe and welcome. Highly recommended.

We popped in for some lunch whilst visiting the Boston fair and had such a lovely experience. The woman serving us couldn’t have been more welcoming and made us feel comfortable from start to finish! We had our 3 year old with us and the ladies inside the kitchen told us they had some books inside that she could take out to keep her occupied. Food came out quickly and tasted delicious. There is a little private courtyard you can choose to sit in, and because of that we were able to enjoy the sunshine! Despite the fact that the kitchen is located amongst a busy town, and during the summer fair- it still felt lovely and quiet and private. Overall a lovely experience, would definitely recommend and will be returning.

Best breakfast in Bishops Stortford and to be honest probably the best breakfast I’ve had. The quality of ingredients is second to none and it is always consistently excellent. I tend to visit with my family (three boys 4 and under) and the staff are always so friendly and so welcoming. Without fail the boys are giving colouring on arrival. There are also toys they which keep them entertained and sufficient number of high chairs. It is just a welcoming place for everyone, whether it’s a couple, a family or even people bringing their dogs. I cannot fault this place and whenever I’ve had breakfast outside from Toaster I cannot help but I’d been here. Always very clean and you can tell breakfast is cooked to order.
