The best restaurants serving British food in England

A very warm and friendly pub with excellent food. Worth going the extra mile to visit!

Busy lunchtime sandwich venue, also with a hot food menu. Cheap, tasty and cheerful, in a lovely canalside location.

I took my 14 year old daughter here for her first tasting menu experience and it was fantastic. The team are exceptional, attentive without being overbearing, friendly and amusing, passionate about food but not in any way pretentious. They made my daughter feel at ease and clearly adapted their script for each course for her benefit. The food is really great. The hors doeuvres and the sweets at the end were both a delightful and delicious surprise. I am coeliac so need gluten free versions and the chefs adapted the menu without any perceived bother which is reassuring as most of us don't really like making a fuss or having a fuss made of us! Most of the beers are Gun Brewery ones which are also gluten free. The setting is awesome. Oak beamed ceilings highlighting the origins of the building along with a premium, modern decorative finish. I would thoroughly recommend Chalk to anyone for a treat of an evening out, particularly if you're gluten free.

Llamé aquí un sábado por la mañana hacía mucho calor y había condensación corriendo por las ventanas. La señora que nos sirvió rechazó una petición muy simple que otros cafés nos han obligado. La comida era de muy mala calidad, especialmente las salchichas que eran horribles y el resto no era mucho mejor, lo siento, pero no volveremos.

We go out once a week for a treat (not easy in the current financial climate). We decided to visit Macleods Restaurant for lunch. The staff were great, very helpful and pleasant throughout. But we felt let down with the food. There are only 5 main courses on offer, yet one was not available (the burger) as it had not been delivered! Really, you can’t manage to have 5 options delivered and available. We both had the fish and chips, and both of us found the batter heavy and greasy, so we left the batter. Finally, we discovered on paying that a 10% tip was added without notifying us or mentioning it in any way; it was just added to the bill and then included in the total. You shouldn’t just include it in the total and it is not acceptable to put customers in the position of having to ask you to remove a tip from the bill. Money is tight enough without this type of practice, so sadly we won’t be visiting again.

The fish was fresh and chunky plus the portions were a decent size. The owners were friendly and went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed.

Nice place for a coffee or full menu

Great little traditional English chippy staff are warm and welcoming and chatty food was great loved the chips and the portions gd value for money and the fish was buitiful thankyou lady's see you soon.

Called here this morning before going for a walk round Matlock bath. Lovely quaint little tea shop with welcoming servers. Just had drinks but the menu stated a variety of food and cakes. Great prices also. Would call again as lots of Covid restrictions in place so felt safe.

Terrific pub in a really special spot.

Sat outside with my daughter on a glorious day and had delicious food served by excellent waitress- pity you’re so far away

No food served on a Saturday lunch time.

Not been there before, wanted to go out for dinner so late booking. The food was really good well presented and very tasty, welcome very warm and service excellent. We were very pleased with the experience. I would recommend it to everyone but then getting a booking will become more difficult for us😁

Absolutely stunning place. Amazing menu, I went for the cod and mum went for the traditional Sunday roast - every mouthful was a taste sensation. And pudding!!!! We both had the lime & lemon meringue tart which was the most delicious desert ever!! The ambience as always is lovely, as is the service. Lucy was great, super service. Thank you for a lovely Mother’s Day experience

Beautiful pub, garden, staff all very wonderful garden looks superb and spacious
