The best restaurants serving British food in East of England

I booked a table for my partner and I as we’d been disappointed the night before with our food at Five Miles From Anywhere. The booking wasn’t needed but the place wasn’t empty. The menu contains a good range of dishes and all at reasonable prices (in my opinion). What we ordered was very good. We started with their Caramel Chicken to share and the chicken was lovely and tender with the sauce making a nice change to honey which we’ve tried in other places. He then had a Royal burger while I had a Spaghetti Carbonara which both went down very well before we ordered a Brownie Sundae to share. The atmosphere was only let down slightly by a dog which kept barking at another one nearby (I’m not against dogs by any means but this one was particularly noisy). The waitress who served us was very pleasant and attentive, and we will definitely be going back again!

Great relaxed family pub, easy atmosphere, really nice staff and best Pizza I have had in a while ... strongly recommend.

Really tasty roast dinner. Second visit within the last month. Will definitely be back again. Friendly staff and such reasonable prices!

Really enjoyed our roasts . Big portions 😋 Thanks to chef and all staff . 👍 See you again

What a great choice for a really rainy Saturday bank holiday lunch. Our preferred table next to the fireplace and window was ready for us. Service was great despite the pub being very busy. I had the steak and chips and Mum had the chicken wrapped in prosciutto with new potatoes and a white wine sauce. Both dishes were very well prepared and presented. We do enjoy our meals here - great choice and ingredients, good ambience and care for the customer experience,

Thank you so much for all your help with our function held here. Set up everything perfect for us, food was lovely and staff was outstanding. Definitely we will be back and would recommend. Thank you once again xx

was great being early ,another lovely meal

I was in this pub this evening,where, to my and everyone else's surprise, the power suddenly went out, and instead of having a backup plan in place, the staff and bouncers promptly kicked everyone out. It was quite shocking that they didn’t seem prepared for an emergency like this. There was no provision for continuing to serve food or drinks, and customers had no option to purchase refreshments. The lack of lighting or any form of heating added to the discomfort, making the situation even worse. It’s really disappointing to see a place with no contingency plan for such situations, especially when they rely on providing good customer service and hospitality. The staff also locked the front doors and gave a 15 minute warning before everyone got kick out.

Quiet for an evening but not bad food, if a little over-priced.

We only walked through to get to the next road, the place looks amazing! The day we were there the restaurant seemed full and what I saw of the food looked delicious! The staff were very friendly and very nice to everyone, people were very relaxed and enjoying themselves. We are planning to try the food ourselves very soon!

Lack of veggie option. Chips could have been crispier. Reasonable prices

One of my favourite Cambridge pubs

Very polite and friendly, especially with our daughter. Ann-Marie and Joe were really good. Thanks x

Been here several times before with the family and has always been good but we went there today and the standard of food has deteriorated to the point that I really don’t want to go back. Very disappointing especially as it so much more expensive now.
