The best restaurants serving British food in England

Stayed for a couple of nights in a very clean & spacious dog friendly room. Met friends for Sunday lunch, & enjoyed one of the best 3-course meals ever. Roast beef was spot on, as was the very boozy tiramisu afterwards. Breakfast both mornings was also very good, with very fresh orange juice, omelettes & full English. All the staff were very friendly, & made such a fuss of our border collie. A lovely short break & highly recommended.

Lovely venue, great food, and friendly service. The music was a little bit loud for a family Sunday lunch vibe but otherwise great venue!

Our French visitors loved this pub, and so did we. It has a lovely ambience , a most welcoming host and staff, and a fantastic menu: great pub food, delicious and very generous portions. Prices were fair. Drinks were also very good indeed. The beer was well kept and served, and there is a very good range of local beers and ciders. We will definitely be coming back, and plan to bring other members of our family and friends here. Cannot be faulted, highly recommended.

We were at the Swan last night and felt like we were at home in the living room from the start. Great atmosphere, Andy did a great job (thx Andy 🤟) and we were full too. Lovely evening in a great atmosphere...

¡Me encantaba ir a Wilmington los domingos! Los precios han subido (norma absoluta para Londres) pero la porción del delicioso asado del domingo se han reducido! El servicio es genial y la comida es buena, las bebidas son buenas también y los precios son altos, pero de nuevo, ese es solo el estándar para Londres. Las porciones de comida mataron mi alma 😣

Great fry up, huge portions and very reasonably priced, came with a hot drink or fruit juice too. Staff friendly and efficient service. Nice outdoor seating.

Beautiful food in a beautiful venue, but service was disappointing given the price point - and the fact that the restaurant boasts a Michelin star. We were there on Saturday night for my husband's birthday and shared the sea bass ceviche, Welsh rarebit and cured and smoked salmon- before getting a Cote de Boeuf. As I said, the food was excellent; beautifully presented and delicious. However, it felt that the servers were disinterested and inattentive because we were ordering from the a la carte menu, as opposed to the tasting menu. There were several dishes we ordered which featured on the tasting menu - which we heard described in painstaking detail to the table behind us as they we were served. Unfortunately, we received no such description of the details of the food - the various elements and ingredients, which you would typically receive from a restaurant of this level. It's a very minor detail - but made us feel very much like the "poor relation" - in spite of paying more than £250 for the privilege of eating there. (This was also reflected in the very casual - and somewhat tardy - approach to our drinks, too.) It's a shame the service let down what would otherwise have been an excellent meal.

Not been here for around 25 years! Many changes to the structural side of things, food still amazing, lovely attentive staff, broad and extensive menu, ..

Enjoyable pint outside with the locals in the sunshine

Fantastic meal perfectly cooked and served. Will definitely be back.
