The best restaurants serving British food in England

Amazing eating place, good choice, food delicious, bread to die for…… The owners are a lovely couple who put so much work into making this eatery a success. Would definitely recommend this place to anyone. They also supply outside catering too, and I have experienced this also. Scrumptious…….

Run by two locals, but they have decided to only do top notch foods. I and my family loved the sandwiches and coffee, they also do speciality teas.

We decided to try somewhere local instead of trudging up to london for a fine dining experience, for once. And we were not disappointed. We live quite local so this isn’t a hassle to get to, but it’s not obvious how amazing this place is if you don’t live nearby. This restaurant has only been around for a matter of months but was packed by mid-evening. We had dinner reservations for 6.30pm and were given a great deal of attention and enjoyed a lovely evening with the taster menu being an absolute pleasure to eat. From the very start the green bean croustade and potato with garlic were divine. The next few courses were all standout - but must make mention of the bread and marmite butter (wow - could have eaten two loaves and what a revelation the butter was!!) and the lamb course was utterly delicious. The scallop was inspired - didn’t think I’d like a cold scallop but it was incredible with the brown crab sauce. For a tasting menu we were surprised how full we felt just as they brought out the English Strawberry desert which was also just divine. The care and thought put into the menu is lovely all using locally sourced and farmed food. We will come again. Special mention to the staff/ladies who served us they were so knowledgeable and lovely and helpful.

Encore coffee house has great tasting coffee and at great value compared to more well known brands. A friendly welcoming atmosphere and a great place to work or meet people. The food is freshly made on site and there's a great range of sandwiches, panini, jacket potatoes and soups. I'm egg and dairy free and they're always accommodating to make something if there isn't anything already available on the counter. Non-dairy milks available at no extra cost!

Came here after a session at FarmEd and was not disappointed - all food is using the locally sourced produce from the regenerative agriculture scheme here and changes very regularly. I got the soup of the day which was served with hearty poppy sourdough bread and shared a ploughman's platter, which featured a range of unique cheeses and pickles. Their dessert selection is also great. My partner really enjoys their honey cakes. It can be a little difficult to find, but this place is a real gem to visit and always busy with guests and tours when I have gone.

Beautiful dinner from start to finish, lovely ambience and would definitely visit again when back in Macclesfield.

There are less and less of the old school greasy spoons. The SAS Rogue Heroes 2 recce crew think it is the dogs ......

Fantastic Sunday lunch. Warm welcome very friendly. Delicious Sunday lunch and a very generous portion. Yummy pudding! Very accommodating for our toddler and dog. Highly recommend - we’ll definitely come again next time we’re in the area!

An awesome place to visit, whether with or without tour dog. This is the friendliest coffee shop for dogs ever, there are treated with the utmost respect, a bed a bowl of water and treats before you order for yourself. Open 6 days a week and the Coffee and food is all to die for

In a high street dominated by chain cafe's and restaurants occasionally you find somewhere special. Luckily for us the usual suspects for a lunchtime coffee were all busy so we gave up and headed home, only to find this gem of a cafe. Small but spotlessly clean and beautifully decorated, serving exceptional quality food and coffee at very reasonable prices. 2 full English breakfasts, we wasn't planning on these but saw another tables order and couldn't resist, 2 Cappuccinos and 2 cans of Coke, £20. The service was top notch by a lovely chap who not only took the orders but cooked the food and made the coffees. Deffo calling again.

We came across Whitby Eat n Treats by accident - our usual place we use on a day visit was closed. We didn’t know WEaT was there. The staff were welcoming and polite. The surroundings were fresh, and the menu was extensive. We each chose a full breakfast (served all day), which were excellent and very reasonably priced. The service was good. The cafe is accessible to wheelchairs, and has a bathroom on the ground floor. We were very impressed and look forward to returning again. We could thoroughly recommend Whitby EatsnTreats - and certainly the full breakfast!

I visited this lovely little tea room with my grandson and was very impressed with the food and service. There was a great selection of cakes; I had the lemon cake which was delicious, and my grandson had the children's lunch bag. There were plenty of tables both inside and out. The tea was served in a proper china cup with teapot. Everywhere was clean. The service was wonderful. I would highly recommend a visit.

We stopped enroute from lands end and had a really yummy coffee. The owner was very friendly and we had a lovely chat.
