The best restaurants serving British food in England

A large group of us around 18 adults and 13 children visited last night for my husbands birthday. We had pre booked with the owner as there was soo many of us. I wanted to leave a review to thank the lady behind the bar, I believe her name is Lisa (known as Leaf), she was soo busy but was really nice, polite and welcoming. This is one of our local pubs and we had a great night, thank you Lisa

Great local pub, always served very quickly, all staff very polite and welcoming.

Popped in for swift half on our walk, really nice ‘local’ feeling about the place with lots of photos of previous regulars, many fishermen, no surprise given the location, roaring log fire and a friendly welcome with good beer As I say we only stopped for a beer but the food looked good. Would come back for sure

Very friendly staff, that one with the blonde highlights in particular, had a lovely chat with us and made the experience very relaxing

Booked a tablet of 13 to celebrate my husband’s 40th birthday! Had a lovely cosy relaxing feel. When we arrived the staff made us feel so welcome! Staff were brilliant got everything spot on! Wow the food was outstanding so tasty! Thank you Travellers rest for making my husbands 40th celebration amazing!

From the name to the decor to the smashed avocado style menu this place looked promising. But my mushroom and cheese brioche roll was stone cold and the cheese was that rubbery ultra processed sliced stuff they use at McDonald's. Staff weren't remotely interested. Can't believe they had the cheek to try and add service to the bill. Super expensive too. Soup was £8.50 to give you an idea. Not recommended.

Had Breakfast here this morning 14/4/25. Excellent Value for money and great service. Highly recommend.

A lovely place for coffee, cakes and more! Andrew has a lovely friendly team who will do their best to feed and look after you. I’m very happy to recommend this place!

Clean establishment with quality food.

really lovely friendly staff....whilst we only had a baked potato, the presentation was good and the food very tasty . I visited the toilets and can only say they were spotless which always gives an indication of how much a business cares. When we are back in the area we wil not hesitate to go there again for lunch/afternoon tea

Great little find. Food and staff very friendly and helpful, especially Rob. Will definitely come back again.

I only popped in for a quick coffee while shopping and received a lovely warm welcome. I will definitely be returning again for lunch in the near future as the food looked amazing and nice choices on the menu. Little Gem

My daughter and I visited today for lunch and had the loveliest time… it’s a very cool record shop/cafe/restaurant that does the most amazing pie and mash! There’s loads of choice; meat, vegetarian, vegan and gluten free pies! For me being gluten free isn’t always easy but they were brilliant and spent extra time preparing the kitchen, we were really impressed and our pies and sides were beautifully presented and delicious! Really friendly, professional people running it, we will definitely be back, thank you! 😀

¡chocante! La comida era casi tan mala como la actitud del personal! Nunca volveremos y no recomendaría este lugar en absoluto

Fantastic steak and ale pie and vegetables. Decent generous portions. We enjoyed it so much we came back for another 2 weeks later 😋 Nice friendly staff and atmosphere, good old style pub. A great find.
