The best restaurants serving British food in East Midlands

Absolutely delicious. Huge portions (maybe too huge) but all 4 of us were delighted with our food. Surroundings are nice too. Thoroughly recommend

Had a lovely lunch here yesterday. Open fire, lovely decor, great food and fabulous service! Would defo return and recommend to others

5 came for birthday lunch. Excellent meal, good value for money and very friendly staff. This is the second time we have visited for a ladies that lunch date.

We popped in whilst having an overnight stay in Minting What a lovely little find!! Full of character, great food at a reasonable price Landlord was extremely friendly, & the burgers were great 👍

We took a lovely spot and sat outside for brunch , quick efficient and friendly service . Food was hot and tasty and reasonably priced . Was not hurried and brunch was civilised and worth the visit . Varied and modern menu and fresh .

I have visited Morton’s on many occasions & it has mainly been very good but the last couple of visits today in particular have been quite poor. The service today was not the best & the food below average. We ordered 2 pizzas & one fries, the fries were cold & had to be returned & so did one of the pizzas. The fries were brought out quickly however the pizza took ages it was then brought out with no apology for any inconvenience at all. The girl who had long brown hair tied in a ponytail in fact slammed down the pizza on the table, we were quite taken back. I had finished my meal & the fries that we ordered between us to go with the pizzas had been finished due to the long wait. When leaving the restaurant we were asked if everything had been ok I said it wasn’t the best & explained what happened & she just said sorry to hear that. I do feel considering we basically ate separately some kind of discount should have been given for the inconvenience & for good customer service. Very disappointed & will not be in a hurry to revisit. Just because Morton’s is popular doesn’t mean they shouldn’t look after their customers & give good customer service.

Really enjoyable night... food was great... the staff were incredible.. super friendly and even though some food wasn't unavailable the alternatives were really nice... and actually had a great night... and a lovely pudding worth a candle and birthday song xxx thanks guys

Visited here yesterday as we have done many times previously and i was on my VERY SMALL electric scooter (ES). It was quite busy but not full as it is fairly small inside. Myself and my scooter took up the same amount of sitting on the chair as i was situated so i didn't need to use their chair and if on a large bike this would not have been possible. However a young girl asked if i could leave my ES outside and walk in which i could not as not able to do so. I replied we have been in there previously and had never been an issue but she said the couldn't allow it when they were busy. I would not have gone in if i was going to cause an issue or restrict any of the pathways and so i felt i had to leave, which we did. However there was 3 tables occupied by approx 12 men who were blocking pathways and not eating anything and were loudly talking to each other across the tables who were who were quite clearly obstructive but seemingly that was ok !!! I am disgusted in this day and age that such discrimination persists and i will not use them again. Perhaps they need to add a sign to the windows stating people with mobility aids would not be allowed in busy periods. Totally Disgusted. LInda Halls

Great breakfast and service excellent, food good value as well. However…..£3.69 for ‘tea for two’ one cup each and one tea bag! Takes the shine off the visit completely.

First time visit and very impressed. Had lunch which was delicious, freshly cooked, hot and nicely presented. Lots to see inside and lovely healthy plants for the garden outside . Will visit again as the breakfast menus looked good 😊

Gravy & stuffing was delish chips were nice rest of the food wasnt the best but after paying for the food you are put off eating it by the smell of wet dogs which seem to be more in there than people! I dont agree with dogs being let in a place food is served but if needed maybe have a seperate place for the diners with dogs!

Cheap and simplistic, group of family went, pub was not too busy and while the staff are friendly enough, choice of drinks on tap were pretty poor choice of lager and strongbow and the doom bar was off. Most of the choice was in bottles and a few spirits. The food is very disappointing however, burgers were a bit dry and flavourless, the salad on the burger hadn't been rinsed, still tasted like weedkiller. The pie looked pretty good at first but the filling looked like it had been scooped out of the toilet from Trainspotting. Chips were lukewarm, only 2 onion rings. Almost everything has been kept in the freezer. I had to ask for ice with a rum and coke however. Ok for a drink, but I don't think I will be going back for food again.

Avoid ! As previously stated had ups & downs over the years and it’s rock bottom now ! Inside grubby / dirty and outside area very very neglected too-don’t go !

Unable to park. Spaces being saved for others. Told on check when the bar would close 11.45 also states this in the information booklet in bedroom. But was refused a drink on our return at 11.30. Would of gone elsewhere had we known.

Stayed here overnight after going to the nearby Race course Really nice place with its history and clocks! Friendly staff and a very efficient waitress at breakfast. Bed wasn’t the most comfortable but only stayed for one night, otherwise would have requested another room. To be fair we were given that option upon our arrival. One other downside was that the neighbouring room complained about the noise of our TV, which wasn’t actually that loud. The adjoining walls are clearly paper thin. All in all we would use the place again if needed.
