The best restaurants serving British food in East Midlands

I visited with family for Saturday lunch. One of our party is diabetic and the staff adjusted dishes to ensure she had a lovely time with no prior warning. Great service and food as always

Been here a few times and always seem to regret it when the bill comes out. Working farm is a good atmosphere, nice food, OK staff, eye-wateringly expensive prices to the point you're better off going somewhere - ANYWHERE - else. Decided now won't be going back.

Wonderful pub with a very friendly atmosphere and staff were excellent Their Sunday roasts are to die for - well all their food was great and well presented with a classy feel

Whilst on 7 day narrow boat holiday on the Oxford Canal we stopped at Sutton Cheney on our way back to Napton Marina. We had planned to stop on our way from the marina but had t been able to find mooring point free. Location is lovely, (nice walk to the Battlefield Heritage Centre). We originally stopped for a coffee, and noted the reasonable prices shown on a converted narrow boat outside that also sold ice creams. There was no one on the boat serving but it indicated to go to the cafe and someone would attend. We did that, but the staff member said we needed a table number to order , so we found a table outside in the shade and then ordered two lattes and were told that they would be brought to us. What I hadn’t initially realised was that I had been charged a significantly higher price for the two lattes than the sign on the narrowboat indicated. Rather than make a fuss we decided to just drink the coffee and not stay and order any food/ice cream. It might be that there is a different price charged for ordering coffee from the boat or ordering from the cafe, however as I had specifically mentioned seeing the coffee advertised on the boat then as a minimum would have expected to have been warned that there would be a difference. I would add that from what I could see at other tables, the food looked nice.

Great service from Sophia!! Felt very well taken care of and will be back! Highly recommend, the food was amazing and we were always served with a smile :)

Popped in for lunch and enjoyed great food, drink and service. Rob, Rachael and Team go above and beyond to provide a warm and friendly welcome. A good selection of food and drinks at very reasonable prices. I highly recommend.

What a lovely pub… very quaint !! We had never been before, but we went for Sunday lunch today for Father’s Day, and it was absolutely beautiful!! Delicious food, all freshly cooked, and beautiful presentation. Lovely friendly staff, nothing was too much trouble at all !! Will definitely be going back .

Had an excellent Cream Tea yesterday. (30/08/2024) Friendly service and delicious food. We will return! Thank you very much.

Stayed two nights a the SOL lovely room very clean and comfortable. Had a delicious dinner the first evening. Breakfast on both mornings was really good. During our stay the proprietor and staff could not do enough for us to make our stay enjoyable.

Place is filthy. Reason given by management was they were busy as they had a wedding. Nah the dirt was not 24 hours old it looked like someone had thrown up on the side of the bed. And I had booked a so called suite Would NOT recommend to anyone

Stayed on Mid week break with my husband and in all honesty the main building is spectacular..Clean, stunning and easy access from the A1 (if you don’t have to cross the motorway) Was greeted at reception by a young girl, not sure of her name...

We (myself & 7 others) visited Fat Cats yesterday for a bottomless brunch to celebrate my mums 50th. On arrival there were a few people outside but none in. We were seated, our food order was taken, our drinks order was then taken. We were then asked to pay the remaining balance before we got these orders - deposits had been paid when booking. Paying the balance was painful, the staff were confusing matters and didn’t seem to know what to do. Overall the experience wasn’t a great one. The drinks were very icy and sweet - The staff were very dismissive and rude, for saying how quiet it was the service was very slow and not up to a good standard. To top it off I’ve got food poisoning from the burger I had😊 I wouldn’t recommend this place to friends, nor will I be returning.

Very nice to come for food staff are very polite etc my drink (berry burst mock-tail) it was 10/10 and the price is very good

I had an amazing experience in this Nando’s, just headed here for lunch whilst visiting Derby. Hussan gave us great service, was very polite and made our lunch extra enjoyable!

The Suncastle is a family friendly place to go with childrens entertainment usualy 7pm to 9pm then adult entertainment. It can get fairly busy especially at the weekend,there is a bar on the upper level which is usualy less busy and you can still see the entertainment. The staff are friendly and the food is not bad. If its busy sometimes you have to wait 45 mins-1 hour so order fairly early.
