The best restaurants serving British food in East Midlands

Gluten free meals available on the menu. Very knowledgeable staff. Always feel safe. Even the after dinner mints were gluten free.

We love this place and come here regularly. First time ever I wasn't happy. The sausage meal was tasty but the veg were dire. Grossly overcooked tiny bits of carrot a few gratings of red cabbage and the tiniest bit of broccoli that would have been more appropriate for a toddler trying new foods!

Absolutely fantastic staff, fantastic food and an accommodating landlord made our trip perfect. Highly recommended

We revisited here after having Sunday lunch a couple of months ago (which was terrific) The service was warm friendly and lovely. The food was great. The apple crumble was to die for. We had a lovely time and the chap serving us went out of his way to make it a lovely experience. Really recommend here as that’s the 4th time we have been and everytime it’s been great

The Anchor is a top pub. Paul is world class bartender. Great vibes. Love the local feel and cold beers. Have a game of darts as well.

What a super village pub. Lovely location on the village green. Garden to the rear. Separate restaurant. Spotlessly clean, good ambience. I had the giant gammon steak with chips, pineapple, fried egg, large flat mushroom, onion ring, grilled tomato and salad, at £15.95 - it was giant, but also very high quality and cooked nicely. Wife had a pannini with cod goujons and salad, at £9.95 she enjoyed it. The three staff on duty were friendly and helpful. Five real ale pumps were in use. If only all village pubs could be as good as this.

Good proper pub. Music, pool table, darts.

We have been coming here for years on a regular basis. The food is always good. The service always prompt and they always make sure the dog is looked after. A firm favourite

Really nice pub. Couldn't believe how clean it was! Great bar stuff and delicious cocktails. Highly recommend if you're in the area

I am usually reluctant to write reviews but this place has consistently impressed me time and time again. I have tried Chinese takeaways all over Chesterfield and I finally found one that I thoroughly enjoy every time it is delivered. Local, quick delivery, always piping hot and fresh food, not too oily, not too dry, flavoursome and cooked beautifully. The chow mien noodles are brilliant and a personal favourite of mine. It’s also excellent value for the quality of food that you get, whereas other establishments are often very unaffordable but much less delicious. Highly recommend. Do not hesitate to order from Mai Hing, it’s delicious!

We spent a lovely few hours here this past Sunday. The atmosphere, food and beverages where good and the staff was friendly. I special shoutout to Amy in the staff that handled one of the rudest rudest customers that I've ever witnessed. The man was completely out of order and was both rude to me and her. She handed him perfectly. Honestly, I'm surprised he didn't get denied a drink or asked to leave. I've seen people being barred for less when being so disrespectful to staff.

Amazing service from Matt at the bar food was amazing I myself had the katsu chicken which was cooked to perfection and my wife had fish and chips will definitely visit again when in the neighbourhood

Food was OK, all plates cleared up. Service was very good, we asked for some extra gravey no troubles. We came as 2 families so they kept the bills separate but have us the discount as a table thanks. Darcie was great and ensured we had a nice time

Arrived for dinner, seated on time, ordered food and drinks which were delivered in good time. Young chap running round like there was nobody else there, bringing food out and clearing tables but apart from him, nobody seemed bothered. Not particularly busy. Two other staff wandering around doing very little apart from taking the odd bill to a table or having a chat. Sat for 20 mins being ignored with empty drinks glasses and no food on the table, got bored, paid and left. Shame really as the food was good but won’t rush back.

Very nice evening meal & great service
