The best restaurants serving British food in East of England

Fancied a roast, I had beef, hubby had gammon, we had it delivered and it did take an hour and a half to arrive, but it was piping hot, great amount of tender meat, veg were nice, carrot and green beans, peas and gravy, there were lots of roast potato's, I would prefer some mash or new potatoes and less toasties but these are just my thoughts. We did enjoy it, so all good.

We were at the Vauxhall Holiday Park for the HRH (Hard Rock Hell) Prog 14 music festival. With the music days ending very late, we only got to the restaurant just in time for breakfast, even though they serve it up to 11:30! We both had a full English breakfast with coffee, and it was a tasty, substantial fry-up- just what we needed. The staff were very friendly and helpful, especially Darcy and Mimsey, who were only too happy to talk to us and answer any questions we had. Recommended.

Had lunch here Great food lovely staff loads of parking space, not to far from town centre,nice countryside pub

Oh boy, what an institution. The best fish and chips that I still remember from going to Southend in the 60's aged about 9 or 10 with my parents, I'm in my 60's now ! Though that was the original Bailey's fare. Went again quite recently, to find business had been sold. The food is still very good, but not as good as with the original owners.

Taken over, Wyevale no longer in operation, so bonus points not relevant! Dobbies provide a similar service, several of the staff still work here

Good meal,friendly service not bad price for that food. My children really look forward to get in there desserts. Highly recommend for families.

Pleasant staff Short wait while my cod & chips were freshly cooked Light and crispy batter tasty chips Old world charm well worth the walk to the end of the pier

Used to be great. Decided to go again and what a mistake. Food inedible. Fish cooked in stale oil. Staff surly and it didn’t look very clean, Hope they didn’t overcharge me and good advice from others to check your bank statement. So many great places to eat in Baldock but this is no longer one of them.

This restaurant is keeping the garden centre going but not for long unless they improve the food quality,we ordered a bacon roll and a sausage in a roll , the sausage arrived in a sandwich for some reason and we sent it back,both meals were cold,it would seem that the fillings were not cooked to order and were just spare food left to one side waiting to be sold ,otherwise it would have been hot.give your kitchen staff more food quality training.

Booked a Christmas meal, paid a deposit of £10 each for Two courses at £24.95 each. Ordered the Christmas Roast Turkey meal and it was sad to say the least. No Yorkshire pudding, gravy was lukewarm warm and almost set. Vegetables were undercooked I couldn’t even cut the huge carrot they served. Dessert was ok, but when the bill arrived they had failed to take the deposit off, after getting the revised bill, we waited ages for someone to come back with card machine, so went to the bar to pay. Sadly, not impressed with service, food or atmosphere, we were only one of three tables in the restaurant that was almost empty, so expected the service to be better.

Popped in for Sunday lunch. It was dreadful! Cold limp veg,cold roast potatoes ,the veg looked like it had been taken off someone else's plate after they had finished with it.The only good bit was the lump of beef.

This used to be a very nice traditional pub, with a good menu - what a difference a year makes! Bar moved, decorated in dull blue colour making the place look drab & uninviting. Barely anything on the menu bar fish & chips! Only 4 other diners in the place & like us were driven out due to thumping drum & bass music --- is that necessary at lunchtime?!? Won't be going back anytime soon.

Such a lovely café with such good food and drink for affordable prices! It's so hard for me to find anywhere I can afford to go for a remotely decent place but this is my go-to! So much love for the place!

Very few staff, but they managed well, remained pleasant and apologised for delay in service. Would appreciate cash and card being accepted on all tills.

Arrived for lunch only able to order at the machine. The cafe was very cold had to wait almost 30 minutes for food which was Ok at best 2 small bits of bacon hash browned over cooked mushrooms greasy. hot chocolate was very very sweet
