The best restaurants serving British food in East Midlands

A passable Wetherspoons pub that served a purpose that morning to give us a spot to rest up and have a coffee. Totally unmemorable and unremarkable, a Wetherspoons pub that feels like it has had it's time and they've had enough. Really didn't enjoy either of the 'Spoons in Loughborough at all which is a shame. When run properly, Wetherspoons has a place in a town, sadly not in Loughborough apparently.

Can’t believe some of the bad reviews. Staff were polite, we were asked what table we would like on entering. The menu was good plenty to choose and reasonably priced too. I chose the home made chilli and chips it was the best I’ve tasted in a long while and I am happy really fussy about food quality, chips were amazing too and all came with a full salad and slaw. I will be returning without a doubt. Lovely tea rooms and full of character. Thank you

Not a cafe only had a currant teacake or a pasty no choice of any thing no menu no wonder it was empty and looked so list do avoid

La comida era excelente y se presentó maravillosamente. El personal no podría haber sido más servicial y amable. Definitivamente iré de nuevo.

Lovely cafe along the high street. Great tuna panini and BLT as well as beers and cakes. A gem in the middle of Skegness. Highly recommended. Staff also very polite and attentive. Definitely worth a visit for a nice lunch if in Skegness.

Please turn the television off in the pub. It's everything you shouldn't have to put up with in a pub considering how expensive it is to drink out. The chase, coronation street, it's god awful. Music would go a long long way. Sorry ...

Had an amazing Sunday lunch for my daughter in laws birthday the food was amazing and staff were great attentive and helpful definitely will be returning

The food was really nice but service at the bar was very poor. The dining experience was somewhat spoilt when staff started to sweep the floor around our table whilst we were still dining. Not what you expect to happen.

Gran relación calidad-precio. Pequeño menú pero bien cocinado, precios muy razonables y grandes porciones. Preciosa ubicación, gran jardín pub. Una joya escondida.

Staying in this beautiful part of the world, with this pub about 5 min walk from our accommodation. Great food! Lovely service. I had the hake which has to have been one of the best meals I've had in a pub setting. It was really good! Full of flavour Yet another reason to come back here

My friend & I visited at lunchtime today. This place is a true gem 💎 ... There is plenty of outside seating, either in the shade or full sun. The shop inside area of the cafe is very spacious too. The service was excellent, the food was delicious and there was plenty of choice. 😋The mozzarella, tomato, and pesto toasties were excellent. I had a decaff latte and a ginger beer with chilli 🌶 . My friend had a mushroom and hummus sandwich, cappuccino, plus a dandelion and burdock 🥛☕️ .. I'll definitely be revisiting. The toilets are up a flight of stairs. I presume they have a disabled toilet, too ? The upstairs facilities were nice and clean. Always a bonus 😊 Many thanks

Lovely venue- came for a picnic with our 2 grandsons, one has special needs, we asked the staff if they minded us having a drink outside and eating our own prepared picnic. We were quite prepared to buy some drinks! We wanted to be able to enjoy the outside and not stress out our grandson or cause any disruption inside. She said no, it's licensed premises....we eventually found a bench near the lake- no table, we managed but it was not ideal. There were no shortage of tables......pity a little more consideration could have been given to those less fortunate....

Ordered a takeaway for delivery in the evening. Incredibly switched on, for price and the delicious food that was delivered ahead of their expected delivery time. My wife thought it was the best Indian food she’d had since visiting India many years ago. I agreed, and we eat Indian food often in the UK and Spain.

Coffee wasn’t anything special. Tables not cleared or wiped down. Busy but not overly for the staff on duty. 1 lady taking orders at the till and making drinks whilst a ‘manager’ stood beside her cutting tags for cakes did not acknowledge anyone in the queue waiting. About 7 of us. Poor management!! Next time I will take my own drinks.

Lovely cafe. Lovely place to watch the birds. Lovely food. Simply lovely. Would recommend to everyone.
