The best restaurants serving British food in East Midlands

Great, as always. We all had a Sunday roast. Staff are very friendly.

Super Tea Rooms in the old Post Office, so quaint. With a lovely Tea Garden at the back. Good selection of cakes and more substantial food for a good lunch. Nice to have table service. We loved it. Thank you for a lovely cuppa and cake. 😎👍

This one is an easy five stars. From the moment we stepped foot in the tearoom is was all excellent. The friendly and happy staff, who clearly get on well together (believe me - that makes a massive difference to a place), were immediately attentive offering us the choice of sitting inside or outside. It was a lovely sunny day, so outside it was on their comfortable outdoor chairs and clean table. Served by a very cheerful woman, we ordered a latte with oat milk and a cream tea. It came with a delicious raspberry scone that was perfectly warm. The loos were clean too. Definitely recommend it.

Great place, excellent food, really friendly staff and good value.

We took a table for two for the seafood menu, which was £20 a head. The service was good throughout, despite the restaurant being full, so credit to the staff for that. The salmon blinis, the crab rolls they were ok, and the calamari that was fantastic, the highlight of the night. The mains of mussels was really disappointing though. The mussels themselves were the smallest I've ever eaten, many in my dish being about 1cm to 1.5cm in length. The sauce they ere cooked in was acceptable, taste is a personal thing, so for me it was a little heavy, less cream and more white wine needed, perhaps. But that's personal as I said. A bit sad that the evening was let down by the mussels, but I have to concede that many other guests were enjoying their meal. I'd have given 3.5 if I could have.

We went here last night with our skegness friends for dinner, well the staff were very nice, showed us to our table straight away, the pub was a lovely olde fashioned quirky place, been there many many years, the food was amazing, we had to wait a short while as the restaurant was full, very reasonable price , and a nice secluded garden with games for the "big"kids

Food is always excellent here. Great pub food and the service is always friendly. Good gluten free options at every visit

I had my 40th birthday party at The Jam Garden and Tania and the team pulled out all the stops! Everyone was so friendly, the drinks selection was great and the pizzas catered for all dietary requirements. We were checked on a few times to make sure everything was going well and the area outside sectioned off for about 50 of us was perfect! Would definitely recommend this spot for parties of any size and nothing was too much trouble. Thanks so much!

Welcoming owner, very friendly. Really hot, decaff soya latte. Cold day so grateful for the delicious hot coffee as you could warm your hands on the cup. Lovely breakfast cob. Will definitely be back.Fab bre

A lovely riverside pub serving excellent home cooked food at very reasonable prices. The staff are friendly and efficient plus the pub is very dog friendly.

The food we all had was great . It was well cooked and a competitive price for Southwell . The only thing that lets it down is it’s not a friendly atmosphere as it used to be . The staff aren’t very chatty but not unfriendly .

We had a delicious meal, followed by the great quiz on a Friday night. The staff were polite, friendly and extremely helpful so thank you all.

We were staying in the village and visited a couple of times. It's not open Monday or Tuesday but if you can the beer is good, I have a pint from New Zealand (it traveled well) and I ate Greek. We were a group of 6 and all enjoyed the food with no complaints.

The martins arms was bought by an idiot. Best pub for miles, mark is a fantastic landlord

Have eaten here many times and it remains one of my favourite restaurants in Northampton. Staff are always very friendly and attentive. Love the range and quality of food. Their onion bhaji scotch egg is a stand-out dish!
