The best restaurants serving British food in East Midlands

Booked the Jubilee for a private party, Jack the manager went out of his way to ensure the night went smoothly which it did! Food was lovely as it's off the menu but a buffet style. Definitely recommended.....

Only stopped in on a walk to have a pint and a pudding. Staff were really friendly. Neck Oil beer was top notch and lemon meringue pie delicious. The chef even gave my dog some bits of pork! Will return for a meal next time

Been meaning to put on a review as I’ve been a couple of times previously for the karaoke night, but I went last night to celebrate my Birthday (which is today). Had a nice meal, all bar staff are friendly but Jamie the landlord always makes an effort to know his regulars. He recognised that it was my Birthday weekend after we had mentioned it to bar staff & gave me a mention at midnight as I went to sing my last song. When you go up to sing he remembers your name which is a nice touch, he’s always chatty. My friend won the £10 bar tab in the raffle, it’s a great idea to draw people in for a sing song. At the end he even said that I could go back for dinner & it would be on him for my Birthday. I had already made plans to go out for a meal today, but it was such a lovely thing to say. Thanks for a great night out & I’ll be back ASAP, hopefully in next few weeks. Emma

Food needs to improve we come to tambo quite at lot.breakfast been poor for last few visits . Not hot coldish beans sausage pink don't looked cooked to us to much food waste .just needs a bit of t l c

Lovely view of Cathedral from window Access difficult though with 3 steps Snack type food a little over priced for me

We had a fabulous afternoon tea for 4 people. The food was delicious. Everything was so fresh - sandwiches, scones & an amazing selection of cakes. Free refills of tea & coffee available as well. We added a bottle of Prosecco as we were celebrating birthdays. Staff very friendly & nothing too much trouble. We pre booked the previous day.

Fantastic brunch 👌 I had the waffles and my friend had the millers. Always a great friendly service for the staff as well.

We booked in for a Friday evening as we were staying on the Landal site. There was only one staff member and one staff - so they had only opened a limited number of tables - glad we booked. The menu was limited but the food was lovely and we really enjoyed it - and the lady serving was very friendly and attentive despite being on her own and busy. A lovely setting.

Highly recommend the Hot Apple juice- it was like apple pie in a glass! Very friendly staff and yummy food. We enjoyed the brie and apple toastie.

Superb Al fresco breakfast in a lovely courtyard right in the heart of this ancient historic village. Quality of ingredients was superb, the tea was delicious and the environment was delightful. I would heartily recommend

Great food, friendly staff and good atmosphere. One of our favourite places to eat, we recommend it to everyone.

Disgraceful Sunday dinner. We arrived promptly and sat down at our table. The children and elderly relative managed to get their dinner and then a very large table stood in the queue to get their food. The young man cutting the meat struggled with his duty and this made the long queue even longer. As this queue went down it was obvious no one was refilling the vegetables and potatoes or gravy and guests were having to ask for this food to be brought out. They then ran out of vegetables so anyone in the queue was unlucky and why half our table did not eat. The young staff appeared directionless with no supervisor or Manager present. I was told the restaurant Manager was not in so was not able to complain as a lot of people were doing. The staff were not clearing plates in due time or even going to tables to ask if anyone wanted anything. Came to this carvery on recommendation but will not be returning. Ended up getting a Chinese takeaway!!!

Had a couple of roasts today which came with free desserts. Meal was lovely, fresh, hot, just what you expect. We was really happy with that.....but....half an hour after leaving we realised we had left a bag behind. Money, cards, car keys, medication, all stuff hard to replace when on holiday. We returned to the Windsor and the lady who was serving, cleaning etc said she saw the bag as soon as we left, so put it safe behind the counter. Panic over. We can't thank you enough xxx

Visited last night for a pre Christmas meal with friends. I have to say the food was superb. Reading other reviews it appears that this place has been hit with several problems recently. Last night the previous owner was waiting on tables as staff were off ill. It was very quiet unfortunately which obviously had a bearing on the atmosphere. Don’t let past events and bad reviews put you off as I believe this place under normal circumstances is a hidden gem.

Like stepping back to the 90s in a good way. The homemade steamed puddings are as big as a baby’s head and delicious. There is always a big selection of specials. I’ve tried a homemade Turkey pie which was a proper rib sticker and very tasty. The home made banana bread with icecream is light and I was happy that the cake was served warm. The Sunday roasts are great and the staff are lovely.
