The best restaurants serving British food in East Midlands

Very welcoming. Very tasty food well presented. Cheerful staff. Fish of the day with cheesy mash and buttery leeks was absolutely delicious. Well worth stopping off.

Great cocktails and professional service with the drinks......

Delicious food with a wonderful choice of dishes, great value and service, lovely atmosphere. Enjoyed a variety of mains and desserts, all were great portions, perfectly cooked and presented in a non urgent pleasant dining environment. Visited after booking for a Monday lunchtime.

We recently decided to treat ourselves to an afternoon tea at Morley Hayes, it was absolutely delightful. The ambiance was serene, and the selection of teas and treats was exquisite. Our waiter, Finn, was incredibly attentive and polite, ensuring our experience was top-notch. Highly recommended for a lovely afternoon out! ☕🍰

This was our third visit to this restaurant the last being about 18 months ago. Really enjoyed our previous 2 visits with excellent food but unfortunately this visit was very disappointing. We were sat upstairs just inside the door and not in the main room this meant we had a constant stream of people walking past us to get to their tables not a relaxing place to sit and enjoy our meal. I ordered the pork and a side order of tender stem broccoli. It was so hard I was unable to eat it. I complained and was bought a second dish this was equally as hard and again I could not eat it. Although it was removed off the bill it still spoilt my meal. My son ordered Lemon posset for dessert this was like runny liquid and had small chunks of lemon in it which was bitter to eat. We were asked if we wanted some water for the table and was expecting a jug of iced water instead it came in a glass bottle with cork type top which was fine but we were charged £2.00 for the water. Overall it was a disappointing visit although the staff were efficient a smile would have been nice. Unfortunately we will not be returning.

This is a great place to meet for a pub lunch. The food is freshly prepared and really good and the beer (Marston's Pedigree) is always in top condition. We will be back!

Went for a meal with friends - we received great service & the food was hot and tasty. Place was clean and peaceful. Thanks to Shania & Remel for looking after us all

Me and my friend came here for dinner and it was absolutely wonderful! Alex who served us was so welcoming and informative. He made our experience an absolute delight. The food was incredible. We are so glad we travelled to eat here. We will be back!

We come to Tideswell several times in a year and always book a table at The Anchor inn. Lots of choice where to eat here, but the Anchor never disappoints. I'm a bit of a soup connoisseur, so decided to try Steph's Vegetable soup and it was so tasty and chucky. Loved it! Had the mussels next which were cooked delightfully in a creamy sauce. All the staff work hard to make it feel like home from home and totally succeed. Thank you again for such and enjoyable meal, made more perfect by celebrating with friends, who were equally impressed. See you soon guys. Thanks Saul

Had an excellent Sunday lunch served by Jasmine, who was friendly and very efficient and catered for all our needs. Would highly recommend The Bulls Head for a meal.

The best meal we've had in Lincoln! Amazing cheeses, knowledgeable staff. Very friendly atmosphere and fantastic lunch.

This place is always busy as a testament to their fabulous food. I ordered a jacket potato with cheese and coleslaw, quite a simple dish I thought. However, when it arrived it totally exceeded my expectations. It was presented very nicely with a fresh mixed salad, kimchi and rice too, altogether a lovely, tasty dish of food. The staff are very friendly and helpful. I would highly recommend this place.

Although the food is good the reference to the bill on the receipt reference was "ginger sket biach" we will be forwarding this to the boss when they decided answer the phone as we sore this on our receipt after we got home .. my wife is very sad about this !!

Was our first visit here in many years and will certainly be back. I had the vegetarian option of Sunday lunch ,a curried veg pie which came with a good selection of veg,cauliflower cheese,roast potatoes and a huge Yorkshire Pudd. It was the best pub Sunday lunch I have ever had. Very generous portion. My friend had the lamb roast and was as equally happy with his. Don't know how we found room for pudding but a Biscoff cheesecake and bread and butter pudding were soon devoured. The service was perfect ,staff friendly , definitely a great choice for Sunday dinner.

Great pub, friendly staff good food can't ask for anything more..
