The best restaurants serving British food in England

A great menu choice, with both set menu and a la carte, we went a la carte. Halibut, scallop, veal, pork, cheese and gooseberry brandy snap, all were beautifully presented, delicious and perfect portions. We chose a couple of glasses of recommended wines and they were excellent choices. Staff were lovely. All in all a fantastic evening.

Visited to meet a friend for coffee, this was a good half way point for us. Service was good, they had decaff option which was a plus, nice atmosphere.

A neighbour recommended this pub. We turned up without a booking, and despite being busy, they found us a table. Prompt service, great food, really nice ambiance. What more is there to say! What a great pub!

Great pub friendly staff good food dog friendly can highly recommend

Lively atmosphere Wednesday night is open Mike night. Large age range of customers. Lots of craic during the day

Was really looking forward to coming here and have to say was pretty disappointed. The young lad was pleasant enough but did seem more interested in the more local / regular customers. The food was very average I’ve had worse but had better. the having to pay 40p for any type of sauce is outrageous, I understand paying for homemade sauces but paying for a tiny pot of ketchup when paying good money for food isn’t really fair, the tartar sauce was awful. Just a real shame all round

Absolutely excellent, welcoming staff, excellent location and setting. The food is excellent and presented very well. Highly recommended. Faultless

always pop in for a vegan pastry before work, find it difficult to find vegan croissants in town but grateful to have this lovely cafe serve them! always lovely staff, warm atmosphere and very welcoming

Very pleasant and efficient barman and waiter. The starter-Whitby prawns Bengali were very good. My main course Linguine with prawns, mussels and calamari was very disapointing. The prawns and mussels were aprox 1 cm in length, the chopped up small pieces of calamari were very chewy. The linguine which was creamy was ok but this all floated in about 2 tablespoons of butter. My husbands sweet potatoe curry was ok but had no flavour of spices just heat.

Excellent experience. The food was tasty different and delicious, the atmosphere relaxed and service friendly, helpful and the pub also accommodated our little dog. We will certainly lunch here again. Thankyou

Had a great stay in the premier inn, beefeater every morning and night for lunch, very friendly welcoming staff with great service, especially Lisa the manager going above and beyond everytime for our team, thank you so much.

We stayed here for three nights. Met up here with friends as we live a long distance from other. Agree with other reviews in that the hotel is very tired, rather scruffy and in need of a complete refurbishment !! However also agree with other reviews that the staff and food were very good indeed!! Would stay again.

Excellent quality food and service.

Im really not one to complain but the food was terrible. I ordered steak and ale pie and mash it came out with over cooked chips and a slice of meat pie. The pastry was not cooked but the dog food chunks did taste nice. Probably the worst pub meal I have had ever. And even worse it was £15. A school cook could do better. AVOID

Great value for money. Staff friendly. Fantastic for our family with 2 young children. They could eat inside the play area so once they’d finished we could sit and eat our meals while they went off to play. We wanted to visit to have a meal and use the play area. Gutted they have closed to the public. I can’t fathom why brewers have made the decision to open to premier inn customers only. Surely they will lose a lot of money by doing this. We’ve visited many a time for the breakfasts dinners and carvery’s. Talked to many of the other guests that have said the visit regularly every week and now loyal locals are not welcome. I personally think this is a disgusting decision to have made and can’t understand the logic of it at all!!!
