The best restaurants serving British food in England

We were staying nearby, and called in here for a couple of breakfasts. Good value for a perfectly acceptable cooked breakfast.

There are so many coffee shops in Whitley Bay, and Boodles has identified a niche in serving boba. However every time we have been they never ever have the brown sugar boba (which I think is the most popular flavour?!) One time we were even told they only serve that on a Saturday which sounds bizarre?! Also when sitting in for a coffee I really don’t like being served it in a cardboard cup, I’d prefer a proper mug or cup.

Ordered meals for my children they refused to eat as said it tasted funny. The chips were rubbery and everything had an odd tatse to it

Situado por encima del museo de Zoología esto debería haber sido un verdadero placer. En cambio fue una decepción. Los puntos positivos. Tiene un precio razonable con un té que cuesta £ 1. 75 . La comida se veía bien. Puntos malos Visitamos a la hora del almuerzo y no estaba ocupado. Esperábamos el servicio más lento que he experimentado sin ninguna organización y el personal aparentemente sin tener idea de lo que estaban haciendo. No había ningún sistema en el que el personal revoloteara de un pedido a otro. El café estaba sucio. Migas, bandejas y restos de comida en cada mesa y ninguno fue limpiado o limpiado en la hora que estuvimos allí. Señalización de virtud por todas partes. Comercio justo este lavado verde eso. ¿Volvería? - Me temo que es un no.

Having been to this eatery before and been delighted this visit was not good, after change of ownership. We tried the menu after the new owners took over and what a huge disappointment. The roast dinner was tepid in temperature. The chicken (small amount) was so dry I needed water to wash it down. The batters were plainly tiny hard shop bought and the parsnip were very hard as if barely or badly cooked. After we had finished what we wanted I had to go to the counter to pay as we had waited so long for them to collect our plates we were not sure if they were going to. Another couple who arrived sent their food back too. I would not recommend.

Busy at lunch time had not booked but were seated quickly. Ordered food took a little while, ok with that. Food arrived looked ok, but quality was poor, commented to lady and she would pass message to kitchen. Nothing more heard till we were leaving and said message was given to kitchen. The quality of the food seems to have gone down and the prices have gone up. No return visit planned.

We had a toasted sandwich, 2 coffees and a slice of sir choc-a-lot cake. The cake was so dry it was crispy on one side and crumbled to pieces - totally inedible. I went back to the counter , waited for a while for a member of staff to appear. I eventually shouted back for attention and advised that they should not sell anymore of the cake as it was dry and inedible. The member of staff agreed with me and said there had been complaints previously . I asked if she could pass the complaint on and was advised that they would just stop selling it in the end. I told her by then they would not have any customers left.

Llamamos para cenar la semana pasada y nos quedamos muy decepcionados. Los tamaños de las porciones eran muy pequeños y caros La dirección necesita hablar con el chef sobre la relación calidad-precio 20 % IVA más un cargo por servicio que acaba de añadir insulto al perjuicio

Had hunters chicken with salad but could have had veg and chips. Chicken very tasty salad fresh nothing special. Had a cake from the daily cake choice. Special offer on cakes from top shelf with a hot drink reduced price. They also serve ice cream Sundays

Miserable rude staff kept waiting over an hour yet arrived early and no one even in restaurant but were told that teh only reservation offer

Rather expensive. Also a limited range of drinks for children. Central London prices (£3.85 for a bottled milkshake?!) which may explain why it seemed rather quiet.

Handy spot and prompt initial service, however we specified no holla Daisy sauce on the dishes and she brought it out covered in the stuff so we had to wait for the second attempt. Tea cups were almost thrown down on the table, the teapot spout on one was badly chipped which is unhygienic. Poor value for money too.

Went last night entertainment great Xmas dinner f o r all it was awful could not cut roast potatoes veg came which we shared for 4 people lucky if we got 2 sprouts turkey was nice it was the best part of the meal and there was not enough staff

Food is good, head chef (alcoholic?) could do with less attitude though and show a bit more appreciation to her guests. An old grumpy man interrupted our dinner talking about the state of the country - very rude and put a downer on the overall experience.
