The best restaurants serving British food in England

What a great place we spent weekend in Filey celebrating a 50th birthday, didn’t book was wandering around looking for fish n chips in the recent storm when we found this place. Quickly seated 11 of us for a carvery which was delicious, loads of choice, friendly, helpful staff, great atmosphere and my husband took a take our pudding which was also delicious Would recommend, loved all the pirate decor

Lovely old pub. Nice atmosphere and food.

We had a Sunday roast and dessert and it was very good. John gave a very good service and it was a good experience overall. We would recommend it for sure.

We had dinner at the White Horse on a weeknight in September 2024, based on the recommendation of the owner of our B&B (Cricket Field House) nearby. After dinner, I was trying to book an Uber outside the pub to take us back to our accomodation, with no luck. When my wife went inside to ask about calling a taxi, the landlady offered for her husband to drive us back to our accomodation in his car. This was so nice and really does go the extra mile! Thank you! If you are ever in Quidhampton, drop into the White Horse for a drink or a meal.

Where to start with this gem of a place? My partner and I had the pleasure of staying at the Commodore Hotel, and it exceeded all my expectations. From the moment I walked in, I was greeted with warm smiles and exceptional service. James and his team just can’t do enough for you. When we arrived in Instow our car key broke and he didn’t hesitate to assist us with fixing it - James went above and beyond, and we will be forever grateful!! The room was immaculate, elegantly decorated, and offered a breathtaking view of the beach, sea and beyond. The bed was incredibly comfortable, ensuring a great night's sleep. The on-site restaurant was a culinary delight, offering a wide range of delicious dishes, all perfectly prepared. The staff were attentive and made sure my stay was enjoyable. The location was ideal just set back from the promenade and the hotel has its own private parking which is a game changer for people looking to visit Instow. Overall, the Commodore Hotel provided an unforgettable experience. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for luxury, comfort, and outstanding service. I will definitely be returning, thank you once again to James, Omer and the wonderful team at The Commodore Hotel.

A fabulous old school dining experience which you just don't find in Hull these days. A really warm welcome, we were seated in the comfortable bar area for drinks whilst we perused the menu, we gave our order and then after a short period of time we were shown to our table. My two sons had sirloin steak each that were cooked to perfection, I had a fantastic porterhouse steak that was packed full of flavour and my parents both had sea bass. The vegetables do not come with the meal, but this means you can choose what you want, and with the meal being silver served, you decide on your portions. Our table ordered three desserts as two of our party were full. A rather nice end to a great meal. I used the gents bathroom as I believe if a restaurants toilets are clean, everywhere else will be clean and my theory holds true. The toilets were clean, hygienic and smelled fresh. There was a plentiful stock of hand soap and hand towels. This little restaurant is a gem of a find, and it can be quite easily overlooked when walking down Whitefriargate. This restaurant has been going for a good 60 years and so I would hope people go and support this local business so they can look forward to another 60 years in Hull

Very good staff and really good food Shame it’s closed now

My first visit to this cafe is definitely a huge disappointment. I ordered a full English breakfast . By the time it came , tomatoes , black pudding were all missing . I asked to replace bacon with mushrooms then realised that mushroom could be added on as an optional . Plus the sausage were so tiny ..... I don't think I would be coming back anytime soon .

Just had a fantastic family Sunday dinner. All the roasts were beautiful. Cooked to perfection with an abundance of fresh vegetables and excellent gravy. The desserts were fantastic. Loved the atnosphere and everyone there was lively and friendly. Will absolutely be going again.

A favourite spot of ours for weekend brunch. Food is always on point (although we’re creatures of habit who order the same every time) and the staff are always so friendly and helpful. Lots of space so are always able to find a table.

Staff are are kind and make you feel welcome. Food is spot on also

Visited to celebrate my mum and auntie’s birthday. Excellent value afternoon tea, highly recommended. Lovely old pub.

I absolutely love this place from the lovely warm welcome to the amazing food. The selection of eggs benedict is large. The menu is large. Everything is high quality food, cleaniness, service. Wonderful family run business. Get yourselves in and treat yourself. You won't regret it

If you check my reviews, you know I am hard to please. This place cooked great food, plus it was nice and cosy. I highly recommend the roast turkey, it was fantastic. The roast salmon took a bit longer but the staff brought us the turkey first and extra plates for us to get started on the turkey first. The salmon was cooked to perfection as well. Brilliant place to grab food on Dover.

We used to enjoy our outings to the Gladstone, but it has turned into a dirty, smelly and "clicky" place to eat or drink! Instead of being dog friendly it is more like a dog kennel - dogs annoy non-dog owners by licking them etc and sitting on the seating instead of under the tables. The seats and tables are dirty and the whole place is unhygienic - we will not return and will leave it to the arrogant dog owners who think everybody wants to be licked and dribbled on by their pets!
