The best restaurants serving British food in England

Lovely restaurant will definitely return, very welcoming. Nice Atmosphere and greeting very helpful staff would highly recommend.

We were a party of over 20 and I would like to thank the lovely staff for their care and attention to our group. The food was good and was served hot, and the staff were helpful and friendly which goes a long way to making a special occasion a happy one. They seem to have taken a large group in their stride, there was no fuss, just great service - thank you!

Welcoming friendly pub with a lovely added extra of the locals dogs that visit 💕 We've been a few times for family meals thank you Jamie for delicious food, the staff are wonderful, so helpful and nothings to much, a great atmosphere. The locals are all very welcoming. Thanks so much and looking forward to the next visit.

It was deserted at half four and we were the only ones in! Friendly, helpful staff and good coffees. Good for relaxing whilst shopping

The Beckford Arms is a great spot for a weekend away, welcoming, friendly and relaxing. Breakfast every morning, bloody marys, walks straight from the door and the rugby on in the living room. Our only issue was dietary which I think needs to be reviewed, when stated the dish is gluten free (pheasant) and it turned up with pasta pieces in, it wasn't great considering the allergies, the reason given was kids meals have pasta and must have fallen in. Also when we stated at breakfast for a gluten free English breakfast and they served it with gluten sausages, again not really acceptable. All in all a top spot for a great weekend, just need to sort out their dietary understanding and will be returning.

Honestly, one of the best brunches! I have shakshuka and haven’t stopped thinking about it since. My family had pancakes, bacon sandwiches, tea, juice and iced coffees and also enjoyed all of them.

What can I say we just been for a fantastic breakfast.nothing to much trouble . Didn't want hash brown . Offered straight away something else in replace of them so had extra egg . We are on holiday and definitely will be back for sure . It was wonderful to see they cared and gave there all .

Booked a table for a very large group for a special family birthday. Staff were really helpful and accommodating during the booking process and especially so when we managed to add an extra 6 to the table on the morning of the booking! The staff on the day were fantastic, so friendly and helpful, nothing was too much trouble. The food was delicious and brought out so quickly and all together, which was amazing as our party was so big. Huge thanks to you all, you really helped to make my Mum's birthday super special - I'm so grateful. Would definitely recommend!!

Had Sunday roast here. Lamb with gluten free Yorkshire pudding which was a great meal. Plenty of well cooked and tasty food. My partner had the crumble which he was very 😊 with. Friendly staff and great service. We will be back. Thank you

We visited the grove for Mother’s Day, 6 adults, 1 child. 3 x roast chicken, 2 x 8oz fillet steak, 1 children’s chicken nuggets +chips. My meal (steak) came out and looked great, although my stone wasn’t hot enough to cook my steak, onions and mushrooms, my steak although looked great, tasted horrible. £23 to only be satisfied with the chips! My wife also couldn’t eat the chicken and neither could my father Inlaw, only eating less that half there meals. I wouldn’t go back if I’d not Eaton for a month and was offered a free meal!

We have visited the elder a few times over recent months and the food and service have always been exceptional. So we thought we would experience their recently launched afternoon tea. It did not disappoint! The food was exceptional. As were their selection of fine teas. A Freshly made selection of finger sandwiches accompanied by the finest venison sausage roll and delicate cheese twist. To follow, the most beautiful treats. A trip down nostalgia lane with a gorgeous Battenberg slice, along with a sweet lemon and blueberry macaron. Then, what felt like an Italian twist on a tiramisu which was so incredibly light and delicious. However, to top these delights was a zingy raspberry cheesecake tart. This was so good! And the perfect way to finish. We were so full by the end that we had to share one scone between the 6 of us just so we could sample the finest homemade strawberry jam. We asked for a box to take the rest home. When putting these delights in the box we came across some warm Eccles cakes. Of course we had to find room for these little wonders. They were just something else! So, if you need that special place to eat in this beautiful Roman city then check out the Elder. You will be wowed. The Ambience, the service, the food….. all top class. This place deserves a star.

Don’t drive too fast! Be sure to give this a try, food was delicious; proper Cumbrian comfort food reasonably priced and a toasty log burner on the go. Well worth the visit and most definitely will be back. Cakes look huge too Why did I never stop before?..

Nice enough restaurant. Simple menu but very tasty food. Staff are friendly and efficient, prices are reasonable. Has vegan options and decent side options.

Staff were very friendly and welcoming. We had an amazing gammon cooked to perfection. Certainly looking forward to returning again soon.

We visited this Easter weekend as a family party of 11 to celebrate a 70th birthday. Can’t praise the setting, food and service by the staff highly enough. What a lovely experience, thank you ☺️
