The best restaurants serving British food in East Midlands

Delicious treat (had the tasting menu with wines!). So worthwhile travelling by bike & train from Derby! Lovely relaxing venue. All plant-based - so perfect!

Very welcoming and friendly. Nothing was too much trouble with my food allergy. We had Sunday roast which was delicious and plentiful and after a short break we found room for dessert. Will definitely visit again when in the area.

We went for Sunday lunch and it was probably the best I've had, the meat melted in your mouth and the veg was brilliant with meaty gravy

Great pub clean tidy .Very busy and the staff were really polite even when they was rushed off their feet. Love the idea of a games and books area to keep the little ones entertained even things for the adults too . Lovely pub

Fantastic pies! The Staff are very attentive, and such a great atmosphere. Looking forward to our next visit! We'll be back.

We went into the pub after travelling for many hours. We were tired and hungry and weren’t sure if they would let us eat as it was mid afternoon. Thankfully they welcomed us in. We had two of the specials, my husband had beef which was really good and just fell apart. I had succulent chicken with a gorgeous sauce. We both had mash that was creamy and smooth and perfectly cooked vegetables. We should not have managed pudding as we left nothing on our plates but we were tempted by a rice pudding and a roulade - just fantastic food all round. I would highly recommend.

The Garden Deli was a little hidden gem in Nene Court with a lovely outside seating area, which has now expanded into the unit next door, the extra table seating has made the deli much more accessible when busy. For lunch we ordered tuna melt panini & avocado smash with bacon on sourdough, both meals were freshly prepared, tasty, hot & nicely presented on the plate. Will be back again soon. It is so good to see an independent business expanding & being successful 🙌

I have rated this pub 5 out of a possible 5. In short I would advise a trip to this place. I had the ribs as the title of my review states. Mum and Dad paid which was ace - we did offer to pay but wasn’t allowed - aren’t they lovely.

There’s an argument that you shouldn’t recommend good place as next time you come there are no free tables. Saying that the bacon sandwich was the best I have had in a long time and the pancakes fresh and cooked to perfection. We’ll be back!

Excellent country pub with great service and lovely food! We keep going back for Sunday lunch, amongst other times! Sunday lunch is particularly great meat lovely and loads of it, lovely selection of veg too just a bit different. So far not found anything to match it for Sunday lunch . Other dishes are good too particularly the pie and I’m not a pie fan generally! A particular shout out to Megan for the great friendly attentive service from her and all her colleagues. Great ambience and lovely gardens! Renovated a few years ago to a very high standard!

Really friendly local village pub, well patronised by locals and some from surrounding villages. Excellent cask ales with a weekly guest ale. Although this is not a food pub, it does sell heated sausage rolls, cornish pasties, and pizza twirls along with the usual crisps, peanuts, etc. There are regular events such as Live singers, Karaoke, Bingo, and a,weekly meat raffle on a Sunday at 4.00pm followed by 'Play your cards right'. Still very much the hub of the Community. Nothing has altered, a brilliant Village pub serving excellent beverages to the Community along with a venue for friends and families to meet together. Unfortunately, the current Landlord has had to serve notice due to price rises across the board. Hopefully, the owner will try to maintain it as a community asset. Only 5 weeks remaining as a pub in its own right. I believe it will be closed for a few weeks and reopen as an Indian restaurant under a new name and management. I will have to wait and see if it will retain any 'wet' trade for locals. The pub closed and has now re opened as a bar and grill Bangladeshi restaurant. Moocha Wala.

Absolutely gutted . Been today from Sheffield and although it states on website open its actually shut and looks like its been renovated..please update the website so people know..had to go elsewhere which was nowhere near as good and cost more aswell ..Still ticked 5 as it always is so good..

What can I say about this lovely little bakery? The minute we walked in we were greeted with a warm, friendly atmosphere. We were there with friends and family. We ordered our drinks and snacks which were promptly served. The coffee is very smooth and actually served in earthen ware cups, which keeps it warmer for longer. I ordered the date and walnut scone. Although it was close to closing time, the scone was still very fresh and absolutely delicious. I'm not one for butter or cream dressings, so I do like my scones naked. All I can say is, you need to try this place to believe it. I will be returning and would recommend in a heartbeat. We left with more goidies too. Please check it out, you won't regret it x

Great place atmosphere was spot on, and staff super friendly

Just had the best Sunday lunch on the Lincolnshire coast! 5* lovely choice of 3 meats and a great variety of vegetables including a yummy cauliflower cheese. It was very well presented, very hot and traditional. Well done everyone!
