The best restaurants serving British food in East Midlands

Couldn’t fault the 2 for £12 meals. 2 of us eat & with drinks it came to £25. Friendly staff & they food was really nice, chips were home cooked & the burger was really well cooked. Would 100% recommend.

Had brilliant carvery today. Best gammon ever…pork lovely too …definitely value for money and best we’ve found locally…so please it’s just up the road from us…intend to use more often… Yes we did notice children but no bother to us…dining late afternoon there was no overcrowding …and no big families… Staff pleasant. Oh! Pleasantly surprised at the price of Guinness…hubby drinks it. I pay for it😁

Stayed at the Travel lodge for 2 night over the Download festival ( June 14th + 15th 2019). We had no choice but to get breakfast at the Harvester.

Food was excellent here and not badly priced at all. Only bad thing is that there was a 40 minute wait for food and they weren't that busy.

We was on a 3 day walking stopping off at campsits on the way. This looked the perfect place to stop for food and drinks. Walked in and 4 other customers told me knowbody was here. I waited about 20 minutes shouting behind the bar. Walk around the back of the place to the back door knowbody there ever. I eventually left with 8 others customers empty handed. I've had bad service before now but NO service at all is shocking. We walked all day with intentions of eating here and camping just around the corner. Also noted card only no cash. Its time to WAKE UP. Also based of your own posts. The Covid virus is an agenda to stop from running your own businesses and force you in to a cashless society taking total control of everybody. There is no virus .

There were 5 of us, ordered and paid separately. The server was very friendly and helpful. I ordered the soup and asked that my roll should be gluten free, the server replied that it would be bread not a roll and I said that was fine. My soup arrived, with a roll. At first I thought they must have had some after all so didn't query it. I then looked closely at the roll and sniffed it (gluten free has a particular whiff). I took the roll up to the counter and the lady there took it from me saying it was definitely not gf and she then brought some bread which she declared to be 100% gf. I was very upset that such a mistake could have been made and I suggest that some retraining take place urgently. Some allergies are unpleasant and some are deadly, the staff need to be aware.

We rang through to let the cafe know that we were a coach of 26 and only had a one hour stop. The staff were extremely friendly and organised. They had one serving, one doing drinks and one on the till which worked really well. All passengers were fed and watered and off we went.

Afternoon meal in the Billy Peverel before a T20 match at Trent Bridge later that day. The Billy P is one of several thousand Wetherspoons establishments dotted around the UK. If all the lights were turned on in every Wetherspoons in the UK at the same time, when viewed from space, an outline of a sausage and a fried egg would be visible. If you squint, apparently. Still, back to business... It must have been a busy day in the pub by the time we arrived. Most of the plates and glasses were still dotted around the place, waiting for the Wombles to arrive and tidy them away, seemingly. The dreadful carpet was exceptionally tacky in parts and the pub just felt like it needed sterilising. Our food arrived after a medium length wait, a chicken strips meal and a wrap with chips. It was almost hot, but reasonably well cooked. The chips were a tad stodgy but passable. The meal filled a gap and we headed out the door, cricket bound. Nothing to write home about but we've been in FAR worse places.

Would be better if I'd of been said hello to by the staff member!! I paid for my drink by card yet she didn't even acknowledge me with a thank you,she just walked off!.....the pub wasn't even busy!!!......a total disgrace! I remembered her name because someone shouted her.....Reene!! She needs some training regarding "People skills".......otherwise I had a lovely drink!

So slow ……….. needs someone to take charge of the staff and restaurant and sort it out . One person taking orders very very slowly, a queue went round into the restaurant. Waited over 20mins for a cappuccino to be bought to the table. The rest of us had finished our cans of drink by then. I’m pleased we didn’t order food.

Sunny 🌞 was our waitress. What an asset to CP she is. Very attentive & bubbly, helpful & knowledgeable about wot to do & where to go. She was happy in her job said it’s a lovely place to work which u could tell by her bubbly nature. Thankyou sunny 😎

its a wet day and so what a better place to look around in quite a large place carpark dissabled toilets and parking loads of christmas things on sale though i not sure but think they wont take cash

Christmas Day lunch. 11 of us (6 adults and 5 kids). Absolutely wonderful. Food spot on. Service great. Enjoyed so much, booked for next Christmas.

First impressions; No table cloth! Drab room! Receptionist was also waitress! Tea was served in horrid white chunky cups. Afternoon tea on a chunky tiered plates...tiny scones on top with pre packed clotted cream...not even in a dish. Sandwiches were filled with what tasted like sandwich fillings and cheap ham. There was no finesse....we thought it was a bit like Fawlty Towers....and expected John Cleese to appear! It was great to be with friends who could all laugh at it! Won't be going back for seconds! It wasn't even well presented... We had a knife and had to use our tea spoons to serve jam!

Absolutely amazing food the sweet potatoes and chicken was delicious my daughters chips were really and fresh definitely would recommend polite helpful staff
