The best restaurants serving British food in East Midlands

The walk we were doing passed by the door, so it seemed reasonable to call in for a drink! My husband had the Marstons Pedigree which he said was very good. They only had fizzy cider on (no great surprise) which was OK even though I would have preferred a traditional-style still cider. We sat outside which was lovely.

Bank Holiday Monday. We turned up 7ish and there was space for us to sit and order food. The menu is a good selection of starters, mains and deserts. The pies looked big, otherwise the portion size was medium, my pesto chicken was very tasty. The food arrived in a sensible time (not too quick and not too slow). All the food was well prepared and presented. The deserts were quite large, I had the cheesecake and it was a struggle to finish. We were all pleased with our choices. The staff were friendly and efficient. The bill was a pleasant surprise and we gave a generous tip.

Booked here for dinner as I was staying near by.Venue is nicely decorated and welcoming.Monday night, so was very quiet which suited me so I can't say how good service would be if busier but it was fine for my needs.Food was good ,average price for the type of menu but all was tasty. Lemon Cheesecake was very nice and decent sized slice. Would eat here again.

99% delicious, tasty but a few bits of chicken were very fatty which was a bit odd. overall very nice though. accurate delivery time too! Thanks for another great meal.

Very disappointed...fish pie was like soup! Literally no chunks of fish and very sloppy. Hubby's food was ok. Quite a noisy pub and locals who are a bit too fond of the F word. We wouldn't come back 😬

Our afternoon tea was a gift from our daughter. The waitress was lovely and extremely attentive but the afternoon tea itself was very average. A selection of teas but all teabags! Afternoon tea usually consists of a selection of finger sandwiches and then homemade cakes. There were finger sandwiches but the fillings were very bland. There was a minute soggy pastry tart and a soup! The scones were good but very small and these are usually the centre piece of the tea but instead a slate filled with huge cakes was served. The almond tart didn’t taste of almond and the orange muffin was very heavy. Not nice at all. Have had far better.

Four of us visited Skypark Farm for brunch on February 6th. We all had coffee following which three had scrambled eggs on toast with bacon and one had a kipper. Although these were standard brunch items they were particularly tasty. Service was prompt. We were served by Sonia who was very friendly and welcoming. The environment is appealing and the cafe comfortable. We stayed for an hour and a half having drunk our second cup of coffee!

Took my brother out for his birthday treat here. The food was top quality, hot and tasty, reasonably easy on the pocket too. Nice atmosphere in the countryside. Friendly helpful staff. Clean restaurant and managed to get a table with a view of the fields even though it was a holiday week. Fantastic treat. Would go again and take someone else too. Thank you

Afternoon tea disappointment. Terrible service throughout our afternoon. It was meant to be special occasion for us , unfortunately it was ruined by waiting staff who couldn't care less. Every time we wanted to order something my husband had to get up go to the bar and ask. We waited for 30 min sitting at our table and nobody came in to take our order . Shocking behavior for such a lovely place. Food was good but really do not recommend this place .We expected something really nice ( even McDonald's will bring you food to the table ) .

we had cakes and coffees. cakes a bit dry. coffees fine. staff helpful and polite. nice place you can sit outside if good weather.

Breakfast par excellence! Mum and myself went for breakfast today. It was cooked with care (eggs Benedict and eggs Florentine). The poached eggs were just right and beautifully presented. Worth a big mention is the friendly and efficient serving staff. Nothing was too much trouble. Thank you!

We had a catch up with friends for drinks while on holiday from Scotland. Unfortunately one of our party took unwell, and Richard the landlord and a colleague provided exceptional customer service by taking him back to where he was staying. We can’t thank them enough for taking the time out on a Friday night to do such a grand gesture. We are back in April, and will definitely take another trip to this wonderful place.

This place is on the poorer side of average. It looks ok from the outside but is very stark and soulless inside. No atmosphere at all. There was a long wait for food. The food was not great when it arrived. We will not be going back.

What a fantastic pub with great staff especially Jen liv Bella James Jo Keira Kieran and ones I may have forgotten. Will definitely be going back. Kind Regards Discount Steve.

Akways una buena taza de café. Tenía queso en tostadas que también venía con una buena ensalada. Este es un lugar agradable con muchos clientes habituales y puede sentarse y disfrutar de su bebida o comida en el ocio sin prisas.
