The best restaurants serving British food in North Kesteven East Midlands

Reservamos para 4 noches de alojamiento y desayuno y teníamos la suite Churchill. A la llegada nos mostraron nuestra habitación y nos dijeron que teníamos un ventilador! La suite es grande, pero parcialmente subterránea, que sabíamos antes de reservar, así que no nos desanimó y la iluminación adecuada en la habitación suplió la falta de luz natural. Hay dos armarios empotrados, una cama grande y un baño precioso. Los muebles suaves son todos hermosos. Los “pequeños toques de indulgencias” fueron decepcionantes, consistían en espantosas galletas de galleta que generalmente se obtienen en los cafés con una taza de café, no el pan casero que esperábamos. Botellas de agua y artículos de aseo gratuitos, principalmente en grandes dispensadores en la pared. No hay toques agradables en la habitación solo muebles. Si te sientas en el sofá con una bebida una persona tiene que poner su taza en el suelo, ya que no hay mesa auxiliar. La habitación estaba limpia, aparte de telarañas colgando de las luces de la pared y una marca horrible en la pared en el baño junto al inodoro... ... . En nuestro tercer día llegamos de vuelta al hotel alrededor de las 5 pm solo para encontrar que nuestra habitación no había sido atendida! Mi compañero fue a la recepción para hacerles saber y le dijeron que debemos haber dejado el aviso de no molestar fuera! Lo cual no hicimos... De todos modos se reunieron y nos dieron un juego completo de toallas limpias y tazas limpias, etc., que fue bueno de su parte, pero nos dejó preguntando si es este realmente un hotel de cuatro estrellas? El desayuno es maravilloso las mesas dispuestas muy bien todo lo cocinado es a la orden y servido en su mesa. Tuvimos una cena una noche en el restaurante y fue una verdadera delicia la comida y el vino todo bien y el servicio fue genial, aparte de una chica joven nos quitó nuestra cesta de pan y platos de pan mientras todavía estábamos disfrutando... . Nunca armamos un escándalo en ese momento. Lo pusimos nervioso... En nuestro último día fuimos a desayunar sin haber podido dormir debido al pisotón en el salón de actos de arriba. Parecía haber un gran grupo empresarial llegado el día anterior. Estaban todos en la sala de desayunos que estaba lleno y pedimos nuestro desayuno cocinado mi compañero tenía su inglés completo habitual y pedí setas de huevo revuelto y Rosti Llegó todo sobre cocinado y sin rosti. Le dije a la camarera que no se preocupara, pero ella dijo que no, iré a buscarlo. Llegó 10 minutos después... para entonces habíamos terminado lo que podíamos comer del desayuno quemado y nos fuimos. Muy decepcionado de nuevo. Usamos la zona del bar cada noche y pedimos aperitivos y bebidas en el bar la primera noche que estuvimos allí fue genial, pero las otras noches tuvimos que ir a buscar a alguien cada vez que queríamos una bebida o algo. Nos sentimos un poco desconcertados por todo, ya que las críticas y el sitio web parecían dar una imagen muy diferente en nuestras cabezas de lo que experimentamos. Siempre elegimos hoteles de cuatro y cinco estrellas cuando nos vamos, pero para nosotros este se sentía por debajo de la par. Creo que en el futuro no elegiremos un hotel que se utilice como espacio de funciones como parecía faltar cualquier individualidad. Es una pena que lamentablemente hayamos experimentado varios percances durante lo que podría haber sido una experiencia memorable.

Had Sunday lunch. Food was beautifully cooked, no frills just a good honest value for money lunch. We ate everything, superb . Hosts very friendly and accommodating. We will be back.

Unfortunately this has now closed, and is a home. SAD to say as was a fantastic tea room. I believe it has been closed for a year or so and property was sold.

What a lovely traditional pub with a great friendly welcome. The Buttcomes beer well worth trying, I had the 5G pint, very good. We all had food which was very nice traditional food. Totally recommend looking the pub out.

Lovely home cooked food, well worth a visit. Highly recommended. Excellent sunday lunches as well as weekdays, closed saturday.

A lovely shop selling arts and craft products as well as a cafe. A lot of the craft products are made by local people and are of high quality and reasonably priced although you do have to pay by cash for these pieces so the crafter gets the full amount. Sensible and fair. The food is fresh and well sourced, cooked fresh to order and delicious. My wife had a slice of yummy toblerone cake and a hot chocolate, I had a bacon and sausage sandwich with a delicious homemade tomato chutney and a coffee. Very tasty. The staff are really friendly and polite, order at your table and add to the experience. We are are on birthday weekend away and are going to have breakfast there tomorrow before we head for home. Totally recommend it for both the food, the welcome and the arts and crafts. A really lovely place to go.

Excellent meal and service with wonderful atmosphere.

Called in without booking prior to a trip to the Kinema in the woods - very welcoming staff, lovely food and very reasonably priced. We will be back!

Had a fabulous evening with family. Food great as was the service. Thanks for getting my granddaughter a portion of mashed potatoes separately!! Thoroughly recommend

the pub is lovely realy old world charm staff very helpful and welcoming the food was good but the veg were so hard it was inpossible to eat them I dont like my vegetable soggy but do expect them to cook them this di spoil the experience I would have rice if I went againwhich is doubtful

Had 2 different main courses, both excellent, must say best fish & chips I’ve ever had, great service, always happy to accommodate

The first time I came here I was impressed … and the second time. Yesterday I arranged to meet two sets of friends and two different times. This was to see if there might be an improvement on my last experience of dry and unrecognisable as cake, lemon cake. Sadly this will have been my last visit. I had some of the worst food I have been served in a very long time. Dry pancakes which tasted so badly of baking powder, and which had barely a dribble of honey on them. All I can say is the fruit was edible. Then later a lunch of chicken and halloumi wraps which may as well have been wrapped in cardboard. The fact that food was not eaten on both occasions didn’t prompt a question if all was ok, I was then asked if I wanted a loyalty card which I took for the irony, and as my lunch companion said, there wasn’t even any eye contact. My last visit as I have no idea what had happened to this place over the past few months!

Came for our works Christmas party End of November 2024. We hired the barn and had a lovely buffet, food was lovely and service was excellent. The hand carved ham was delicious. Excellent venue, we had lots of fun and there was a singer on the the yard part so we got the best of both worlds Thank you Ryan, Hollie and staff xx

What a disappointment went with a friend for breakfast we booked a table as we know it gets busy on a Saturday. We order toast with a oat milk Mocha. The Mocha tasted like dishwater No flavor to it definitely did not have much of the way of chocolates in it asked the lady if she could add some more chocolates which she did reluctantly telling us will it was with oat milk we alway have oat milk Mocha when we go out so know when ones not right. We then ate our toast to have the plates whipped away the moment the last mouthful want in . As we sat and talk and finished our coffee the place was busy but not full the moment we'd put the cups down they were whipped away to and the next thing we know the guy was standing there with the card machine wanting us to pay and be gone. Now I get it's Saturday and that it does get busy but like I said before there were tables empty and we won't even asked if we'd like anything else. Needless to say we won't be going back

I have just been to this restaurant for A Christmas office night out. The food was nice, but please make sure you're not hungry when you go as the sides to the main course are non existent. Very little veg with the meal. Also the waiter brought a table of mine a tiny ramakin of cabbage to share between us. When asked if there was anymore the answer was a flat no. Like I said food was nice but not really enough and they don't put much stock into customer satisfaction.
