The best restaurants serving British food in East Midlands

Overcooked dry steaks and burgers. "Well done" steaks were black outside raw inside. Burgers were close to being charcoal. Food not up to normal excellent standards.

Just returned from a lovely lunch at The Bromley, under new management. Really attentive and friendly staff with good food. Highly recommended if you're looking for tasty vegetarian and vegan options too (now a rarity) - no bought in, ultra processed foods on offer here. The warm and welcoming atmosphere has returned to the pub. We've booked in for our Christmas get togethers already as the Festive menu looks fabulous.

Great pub, good food and drinks, decent prices and friendly service. I was served by HW and RB and had a great time, would go again

Best eggs Florentine ever. Poached eggs were perfectly cooked, husbands English breakfast was piping hot with great quality sausage. Nicely done.

We visited last weekend with my family and we had a great time from start to finish, the service was so great for us , we also enjoyed all our food was really fresh And tasty too, I highly recommend this restaurant to every one as they have lots of nice food options not only on they menu , but they still have they daily menu which we think that is great to have on the restaurant, thank you so much to all the staff at Rocksalt Bistro

Excellent staff, outstanding food and a lovely place to spend time

It was a meal of a lifetime for us and absolutely sensational! My only slight disappointment was that we had no room for cheese at the end. We decided to try both wine selections: one opting for the cellar wine pairing, and the other for the standard wine pairing. Both were fantastic and included a creative selection, featuring Lebanese and Estonian wines I had never tried before, as well as an ice cider from Quebec, Canada. Every dish was presented in its own unique way and was a delight on its own. Thanks so much to everyone for making our evening special!

We waited for longer than I would have expected. The meals had an abundance of peas and onion rings, which we were unable to eat, a waste of food.

We came for the Wednesday night quiz and a carvery. Both were excellent. And I would highly recommend it to anyone in the area.

Great deal, food was epic and you will be surprised at how much u get. our server was Ella. very friendly, engaging and interactive. definitely recommend

We booked in for 3 nights from a Monday to a Wednesday on a bed and breakfast basis. We were aware that there would be no evening restaurant service for the first two nights. The location and grounds are beautiful and the front line staff were very pleasant and welcoming. Unfortunately the bed in our room was very uncomfortable - for a lightweight person the mattress was extremely hard with no give in it at all. As a result I had no sleep on the first night and was in a lot of pain by the morning, so much so that we reluctantly decided to end our stay. In accordance with the terms and conditions we were liable for the full cost, which we understood, and we paid without any fuss. However, as there seemed to be no other guests in residence at the time it was clear that our late cancellation had no impact on the ability to re- sell the accommodation to someone else, and I believe that meeting us half way with the costs would have been reasonable in the interests of good customer relations. We were offered another room but obviously the mattress was likely to be the same. I know everyone has different needs and there have been some very favourable reviews but I can only tell of my own experience. Our breakfast was well served and prepared but the choice was limited for a hotel of this standard - there did not seem to be any pastries/croissants on the menu.

Lovely fish and chips hot and fresh cooked to order . Few seats outside or you can sit inside at extra cost . Only reason I've not given 5 stars is cause they charge for a carton to take away what you can't eat which I thought was a bit mean as we'd spent over £30

Great service great value what's not to like. They have loads of offers but the lunchtime menu deal is with the cost of living the best value for miles around. Much better value than a certain carvery place not far away. Kitchen staff are faster than lighting as well.

Lovely food/drinks and friendly staff.

Birthday meal with family starter Asian beef salad stringy beef burnt crispy coating and covered in fried onions with soy sauce dreadful. Main lamb was OK dessert was Eaton mess more like Eaton mush. Over priced and pretentiousness. Great waiting staff very friendly
