The best restaurants serving British food in England

Real Ale drinkers will know that Greene King are a brewery, they own pubs, they sell real ale in those pubs, they have 3 main sellers Abbot, IPA & Old Spackled Hen, usually all three are available in their pubs, NOT SO in this one. How poor is THAT !!

Bad hate this place dirty don’t go ever please save your self food cold after I waited 1 hour pleaseeeee don’t go pleaseee

Son personas encantadoras, pero el sitio web dice que recicla muchas cosas que no. Traté de decirle al personal de la tienda que había llegado con mucho que reciclar, pero tuve que ir a casa con ellos. No hay forma de cambiar el sitio web aparentemente

El servicio el día que fui fue sorprendentemente lento, 1 persona cocinando y tomando pedidos no era un muy buen plan de negocios. ¡Esperé para hacer un pedido sin reconocimiento después de 5 minutos que me fui y no volveré!

Where do i start.. staff need to get manners. Food was Luke warm Windows need a clean so does the floor. Cutlery wasn't very clean either. Outside is full of smokers and cig ends on floor. Will be sticking to my regular Cafe 91 further up street. Staff who work in cafe buy kids cigs from the shop next door as the kids are under age absolutely shocking behaviour they need to be reported!! Avoid and don't waste your money

We were looking for a non pub meal early evening. Went here at 18:30 , board outside offering meals, no-one inside, told we are fully booked. More like we were wearing shorts - tailored I might add. Pretentious little place that does not deserve to survive

Had a beef sandwich which was awful, bread was stale and the beef tasted off, had one bite and threw it away.

We stayed here with our young family in January this year. My wife has reviewed the hotel below, titled “disappointing”, this was mainly due to the lack of communication prior to and following our stay. The below response it to the managements response from her post, as I am unable to respond directly and his response was inaccurate. Hi Richard/Chris, Thank you for such a prompt response. I expected that I would receive a reply to a public review. As stated, I did complete the feedback and sent a follow up email and have still not received any personal correspondence from you, including in my spam, however, I have received regular spam emails from the Grove. It may be worth checking your spam box for my feedback, as I said, it was completed promptly. As feedback was requested on multiple occasions following our stay, I hoped that it would be used productively, to improve your service. My review was factual, and you have now also demonstrated that not only are you not interested in your guests’ opinions, but you are also rude and condescending. We received the initial confirmation on booking but no follow up emails, apart from as mentioned above, spam. The booking email promoted the restaurant with no mention to the restaurants being closed and only stated that the breakfast included was for ‘reservations made directly through us (including our website) include breakfast as part of the nightly rate)’. The fact that the restaurant is closed for the first three weeks of January was obviously not clear on your website as that is where we booked. It would be helpful to make the booking email clearer or specific for the cottages and to include the closure of the hotel and restaurant during January, to prevent disappointment. Clearly the bathroom has had a hard 12 months. As mentioned on the feedback, I called the morning of our trip as we were concerned that we had not had any correspondence. The receptionist advised that there was one slot left for swimming, which we were advised to book, the Saturday or Sunday was fully booked and the other day had 2 slots. The day that we left we had to swim before 8am as it was booked out for school swimming for the rest of the day. Anyway, once again, Thank you for your rude/sarcastic response Richard/Chris, I feel that you have confirmed to any guests questioning your ethics, that they are in fact, quite poor. As advised in the feedback, the staff that we met were friendly and welcoming, I hope that you treat them with more respect that your guests. BW

Una sonrisa no cuesta nada. ¡No hay retrete! También el tocino estaba un poco graso. No veo la necesidad de la tapa de plástico: desperdicio de recursos. No fue barato. No califico este lugar.

Would come for a coffee at least 3 times a week, amazing staff and fantastic coffee but i came in on Tuesday 14th may and seems they have employed a new staff member..... she was sat on the floor behind the counter on her phone when i arrived as I could see her thru the cake display and i wasn't even acknowledged when i was waiting at the till, another guy served me who was lovely and make my drink, For most of my visit she was just stood around on her phone and being loud and I could hear her on the other side of the shop, Was gonna pop in on Thursday 23rd may but seen her smoking out the front of the store just sat in her uniform which put me off coming in so I went to another coffee shop instead, won’t be returning for a while.

Collected 3 Steak pies (they had no steak slices left) and 2 Eccles cakes yesterday, young lady was very nice and helpful behind the counter. We have been buying from Latham's for years, but OMG have you let yourselves down guys. T he steak pies where dry, very little meat and as for flavour do you not taste them when being made as they where just full of salt, all 3 people eating them put them in the bin, me included. The Eccles cakes had hardly any fruit and to be honest where tasteless. Also your prices have shot up, what's happening in your business. After years of being loyal customers we shan't be coming back sorry, it was disgusting and over £13, where is the value in that, it was just awful.

I love my food and we are always looking for new and upcoming places in the merseyside region. Being European food is a big part of my life and as such we are happy to pay for quality  We stumbled across 625 in West Kirby and thought let's give this a try as it looked beautiful and the menu looked great. That's where the positives ended,  We had to book for a Saturday night via phone as no website or online booking process was available, an inconvenience but not the end of the world. Arriving in the vicinity of the restaurant in West Kirby from Liverpool, parking options are atrocious and we had to park quite a distance from the restaurant and this was early evening,the restaurant is small and well decorated, the high tables and chairs are slightly off putting as not what I'd expect for a fine dining experience !! Stifling no real air movement aircon in the ceiling but wasn't sure as to if it was on or not and if it was, it wasn't working. The food is based on a sharing concept, we ordered a variety of assortment including the tomato salad as who we thought was possibly the owner, was making a lot of noise about it, only for all of the food to be underwhelming, over salted, overpriced and nothing short of what was Gastro pub at best. I'm not sure you can sell Aubergine as gourmet or fine dining. It was also overseasond and fried with dirty oil. It's a first for us to be fair and one that we will not repeat anytime soon, the food and or the restaurant itself as there is far better in that particular area. The food as a whole didn't seem as fresh as we thought it should be, dirty oil. The bill was astronomical, the wine which we purchased was also purchased in other West Kirby establishments at a significantly lesser amount / Hoylake. We were also advised by one of the servers that the Head Chef or the main creator of the menu has now left. This could be why the food wasn't as expected as no control over what's produced / sent out. I guess it's a lesson learnt to never judge a book by its cover. Unfortunately covid has allowed people to dream but the reality can be miles away, shame as it offered potential.

This was a Iocal institution that served the community for decades and was the best COME 2024 with new owners who don't have any clue how to run a chip shop With a good deal of the menu removed. Also the local delivery service has gone as well.

Really awful. Totally unfriendly service, total lack of interest. We ended up having one bottled pineapple juice and one San Pellegrino Limonata for £11.25. And for that not even a smile or a thank you. What a rip off.
