The best restaurants serving British food in England

Nice batter on the fish, well cooked chips and decent size portions. The fish was not cooked fresh to order but didn’t taste like it had been sitting around too long. Small cod, chips and mushy peas cost £12.50. The peas seem disproportionately expensive at £2.50. Working locally I would have tried Riverside before for lunch but their lunchtime hours finish very early (before most people even start their lunch hour I would have thought.)

Always a great place to go, staff great, food great!!! Aimee the manager is always accommodating And nothing is to much trouble, highly recommend going xx

Just popped in for coffee which was lovely

What a treat, we sat in a garden pod with our dog. It was a very different experience but thoroughly enjoyed it. The food was wonderful, the staff attentive. Would definitely recommend.

First class service as ever … food was amazing and Jazz music on the patio Fantastic……

Visited this pub last Sunday for my Dads 98th birthday. There were 17 of us. Some had the beautiful Sunday roast and some ordered off the menu. All the food came out at the same time and thoroughly enjoyed by everyone. The place was really busy so if you fancy a lovely meal, with superb hospitality I would suggest you visit this place. We will be returning very soon.

Started staying here while working in the area. Rooms are of a good size with good selection of complimentary coffee and biscuits. Breakfast is a good size and always freshly cooked with a selection of fruit juices, cereals and fruit. Meals in the restaurant are excellent with a good selection for all on the menu and the added bonus of a daily curry which have been superb quality

Lovely old fashioned tearoom with over 30 varieties of tea . Food is excellent and reasonably priced and has daily specials. The menu is simple but the food is better for it. There is also some B&B rooms attached, plus outside seating. Dogs are allowed Overall I would recommend a visit to this little gem of a place.

We visited for the first time last week and had an amazing lunch; the front of the cafe was very busy (a great sign!) and there was lots of lovely outdoor seating in the back courtyard. We had several of the small and larger plates, including an amazing hispi cabbage and a tortilla topped with wild garlic mayo. The food was honestly some of the best I’ve ever had, everything was delicious. I can’t wait to bring friends and family when they visit us!

Our first visit to the restaurant for Sunday Lunch wow really nice tastey food, amazing well proportioned desert. Attentive staff, comfortable seating. Can't wait to return

Great food happy to have somewhere I can have anything on the menu I will go back many thanks to the chef and staff

Este lugar es tan bueno que debe reservar para evitar la decepción! Habíamos planeado comer en el centro de la ciudad de Scarborough después de haber tenido una tarde encantadora viendo una película y de compras, pero el lugar que habíamos elegido había decidido cerrar temprano porque habían tenido 2 días ocupados! Llamé a Walkers y nos lanzamos sobre su misericordia. Por supuesto que estaban llenos en este sábado por la noche, pero sentía tanta pena por nosotros que nos dieron una mesa en su bar de budín. Hay una gran variedad de comidas, todo muy caliente y sabroso y el personal es muy amable y eficiente. Siempre tengo el eglefino y langostino mornay que tiene una salsa cremosa y está lleno de pescado. Viene con patatas fritas, patatas hervidas o una ensalada de acompañamiento y en esta ocasión elegí la ensalada de acompañamiento, que era enorme y mucho mejor que el pequeño plato habitual de hojas flácidas y pequeños trozos de tomate y cebolla roja que los lugares suelen llamar ensalada de acompañamiento (ver foto). En verano suelo elegir la ensalada de colas de cangrejo de río, que también tiene una excelente relación calidad-precio, llena de ensalada fresca y fruta con una porción muy generosa de colas de cangrejo de río. He estado dos veces con amigos que han tenido que pedir una caja para llevar a casa la mitad de su porción que han disfrutado para su almuerzo del día siguiente en casa! Tenemos mucha suerte de tener este maravilloso restaurante familiar cerca de nosotros. ¡Vete, pero llama primero para reservar o te decepcionará!

Mia Tash and lexi were really nice, looked after us and provided a fantastic customer service in all aspects!!

Excellent food, good helpings, in comfortable surroundings. Would strongly recommend this pub for good dining and a fair choice of beers.

A mix of village inn and restaurant with rooms, the Swan had been impressing visitors with its food and drink for many years before closing in 2024. After a couple of months it reopened and if anything is now even better than it was. Confident, imaginative cooking is backed up by good cellaring of beers and wines. The atmosphere is warm, mellow and welcoming, setting a high standard for others in the area to try to beat, unsuccessfully this far. And it is still getting better.
