The best restaurants serving British food in Rushcliffe East Midlands

As my friend had a big birthday (she won’t want me to divulge her age) 😜 I decided to take her somewhere new. I had seen Platform 29 on various social media sites & thought it looked very pleasant, so booked. Having never been to Ratcliffe in Trent, we set off on our adventure & we were not disappointed. The staff were all very lovely, nothing was too much trouble, even when my friend had an intolerance to mayo which I hadn’t told them about when I booked & they had asked about dietary requirements. 🤦🏼‍♀️ They made her some plain sandwiches which were equally delightful. The sandwiches were amazing, the bread was very fresh & light, the fillings plentiful. The scones were some of the best I’ve had anywhere & I’ve sampled a few in my time! Now I’m struggling to fine the words to describe the cakes (lemon & chocolate) as they were a triumph! The were so light & delicious, again some of the nicest I have had, with or without afternoon tea. I would just like to say a really big “thank you” to them for making the experience memorable in truly the best way!

Visited today with my mother and mother in law for the first time, we will be returning, made to feel so welcome by the lovely lady Rona, food was wonderful, we loved the surroundings, Thank You very much

Been going to this cafe for years now and never fails to please! lovely freshly tasty food and extremely well priced. Best local cafe in all the local villages

Amazing food & fruit smoothies! I’ve never once had a bad meal everything tastes amazing the soup is always something different which I love the variety! Most places stick to the same soup every week! The fruit smoothies are actually addictive there that good and so refreshing!!! Definitely the best scran in the three towns by miles!! The staff can’t do enough to help you and make sure you are 100% happy with everything! Honestly you couldn’t fault it!

La tripulación siempre es extremadamente educada y amable, les encanta la comida fresca cocinada, siempre caliente y sabrosa, el servicio de buffet es insuperable donde nada es un problema, y los precios son mucho más baratos que cualquier estación de garaje local, servicios de autopista, etc. pero lo más importante es mucho más sabor y rellenos que otros proveedores, y todo esto se entrega a diario si es necesario sin costo adicional, No dudaría en recomendar los servicios de Courtyards a cualquier empresa, negocio local o patio de garaje, prefiero comprar sus alimentos fríos y calientes que los que se ofrecen actualmente en las estaciones de servicio locales

Came here with a friend we were visiting. Nice little tea room. Food is delicious and cooked fresh everyday. Having came here on our friends recommendation I certainly recommend this tea room. Made to feel very welcome. We took the last of the scones home to enjoy. I'd also like to recommend the luxury milkshake. That was really nice. The bacon brie and cranberry Panini is also a good choice.

Great cafe for cyclists and outdoor enthusiasts. Lovely for all others as well.

From the moment we attended the wedding fayre at The Carriage Hall we have been provided with constant support from Cat and her team. I have had many questions throughout the year which have always been answered very promptly and with additional advice as needed. When discussing our ideas, the team were always willing to listen, but also providing other/additional suggestions based on their extensive knowledge of wedding planning. On the day itself, everything that I had dropped the previous day were set up perfectly. The music was playing and Cat was there to greet me and see me on my way down the isle!! Nerves were high, but Cat calmed me down and told me and my bridesmaids when to go. The food was exceptional, our guests could not believe the quality and the service. From start to finish, our wedding day was nothing short of perfect! The added touch of having the shepherds’ huts for accommodation and the beautiful Perkins breakfast was the icing on the cake! I would highly recommend The Carriage Hall as a wedding venue, but also for any other gatherings. Thank you team Carriage Hall Kati & Dave x

Busy, with a superb range of beers.

We just stayed at The Chestnuts Country House and all the reviews are so true. The setting is beautiful, the room is stunning, with everything you need and more for us and our dog. We were even able to charge our car over night. The breakfast is superb, truly remarkable. Thank you so much Kelly and David we can’t wait to come back and try the rest of the menu!

Great atmosphere and notable beer selection. What a transformation. We were only in for drinks but will return for a meal.

Day of the Dead event, the music and atmosphere were fantastic, drinks not over expensive, but the food was awful Im afraid. We ordered the nachos which was unlike any nachos Ive had before, bland tasteless and soggy and a sharing dish that wasnt even enough for one person. I was expecting tortilla chips or totopos covered with cheese or cheese sauce, as well as a variety of other toppings and garnishes, ground spicy beef or grilled chicken vegetables (such as chili peppers, lettuce, tomatoes, and olives), and condiments such as salsa, guacamole, or sour cream. Even if a small portion of these for the price. Instead..we got flavourless torilla chips not even salted, and most were soggy as sitting in a flavourless white sauce, also falvourless green mush and flavourless beans. I couldnt eat any of it and I hadnt eaten all day. My neice had Birra tacos which at least had a little flavour, but we were both very disappointed after hearing such good things about the food, and she had travelled all the way from Surrey

Mi amigo y yo nos alojamos por 2 noches estar y estar en la habitación doble Staunton. El dormitorio era cálido y tenía todo lo necesario, incluyendo una ducha doble. ¡El desayuno fue un banquete! El mejor desayuno que he comido en un pub! También se servía caliente. Mi amiga pidió la cena de carne y estaba muy bien cocinado a su gusto. El acogedor pub tiene un quemador de troncos y está lleno de carácter por dentro y por fuera. Sin embargo, las mejores características son el personal y gerente cálido y acogedor. Nada es demasiado problema y hacen un esfuerzo adicional para que su estancia sea agradable. La hospitalidad en este pub es excelente y me alojaría aquí de nuevo sin dudarlo. Puedo 100% recomendar alojarse y cenar aquí.

I met a friend here recently and we had lunch. Food is nice and service was good too. Pleasant polite staff and a nice atmosphere Groups of friends meeting for lunch, tea and cake.

Absolutely a Gem of a pub, lovely friendly staff, always welcoming. A range of different cask beers, and food cooked to the finest standard... At a reasonable price too... My new local! 5 stars all round!!
