The best restaurants serving British food in East Midlands

Service was very slow, had to keep asking for drinking puddings etc. I appreciate it's December and the restaurant can be busy. My 15 year old daughter has small thin piece of gammon with just chips and peas £15 (she doesn't like egg) Very poor 3 of us had pork belly, the potatos's and pork had way too much pepper added. 4 starters 8 mains 4 puddings 1 round of drinks £290.00

Food was nice and well cooked. Was served by a waitress called Kearna well mannered young lady who went above and beyond for us.

We have been twice recently with different groups of friends and both times the meals were great - large portions and very good value for money. Can seem a bit noisy but that's to be expected at this time of year

Amazing customer service, Charlie and the team made the visit warm friendly and cosy on a cold winters night. Full praise to the chef for the standard of food. We look forward to many more visits.

Me and my wife have twice visited this pub after attending away football fixtures Both times it has served a purpose and its quite good value for money but i think its a bit under staffed and on both occasions we had to wait 10 mins at the bar for someone to attend to us and it was not at all busy . On our last visit the waitress made our dessert as the chef had gone home and it was 8.30 on a Saturday night (To be fair it was pretty decent ) All of the staff on our visits have been very friendly and the food comes out on time . The paintings on the wall i think are done by a local artist are for sale . They were still there a year after our first visit so if the artist is reading this i think you might need to put the prices down . I think you overdone the white on Bob Marley's teeth as he looks like he has just come back from Turkey :) We would eat there again if we were in the area .

Visited last night with friends on 8/11/24. Food was lovely. Cooked perfectly, great flavours . My husbands steak frite was one of the best steaks he has had for a long time. 100% recommend.

Nice food, better than most pub grub we've experienced recently. Good service and pleasant staff. Definitely visit again.

Food was brilliant & Susie was very kind & attentive. Drinks came quickly as did our starters. Will definitely be coming back!

I'm an Uber driver and I've been working with this store for 3 years. Recently, a girl was hired who speaks badly to customers and drivers. When I wanted to order food, I was refused on the grounds that I work for Uber and that I don't she is allowed to serve me. this is not true. and on her shift the waiting time increased to 20 minutes. when you ask details about your order she tells you to cancel it as she is busy and has no time to place your order. I asked her name so I could report and she refused to talk to me. it seems bad for a simple employee to refuse customers on some invented reasons

we was served by the lovely shaun! he was very happy to help! such a lovely place and atmosphere! we will definitely be coming back!!

Sadly not a great visit, waited 10 minutes at the carvery with chefs looking through the window still not coming out & team walking past. Did get someone beef was very rare not an issue if the fat is rendered but it was thick solid white & like chewing rubber. Few items undercooked also, always use this branch but the past 2 times have been poor.

We called in for lunch after a 3 mile walk with our dog around the Chatsworth estate. The quality is there to see from the moment you walk through the door. Attentive bar service, a perfect pint of Chatsworth Gold, excellent wine list (including dessert wine by the glass) and quality food backed up by fantastic and friendly service from Nieve, a fellow dog lover who is a credit both to herself and the organisation. Will definitely be coming back.

Great Sunday lunch for my birthday, fab portions, very hot food, service was fast and very polite and friendly, room was warm and overall a great place to celebrate with Family

Great food, great service and a great price. Decent menu and portion sizes. Plus they have a pool table and darts board. Super friendly staff. Absolutely recommend!

We are regular visitors to Trent Port and have to say ALL the staff are friendly and go out of their way to accommodate. So it pains me to report that our meal today was nothing short of inedible. The roasties were greasy and mushy, the mash lumpy, the veg dried up and the Yorkshires were overcooked. In contrast the turkey was delicious. I don't know what happened but come on Trent Port, there are numerous eateries make us want to come back.
