The best restaurants serving British food in Bedford East of England

Just visited The Grove Restaurant for their Christmas menu and the food and service has been excellent, would highly recommend to all. Thanks for a lovely meal! 👍

We recently visited this cafe with a friend we have been there before, the couple who run the cafe are very friendly and the food is very good, on a Sunday they do a roast dinner which is very reasonably priced as is all their food, I would recommend a visit if you have not already been, but I would advise you book if you are going for the Sunday roast.

Lovely fresh food. Perfect for a takeaway lunch - fresh baguettes, wraps, Indian samosas, croissants, pasties and a fab selection of cakes/tray bakes too! Hot and cold drinks. A good choice for vegetarians too. We found their lovely little shop by accident a while back now, and have been popping in regularly ever since. The owners are warm friendly people. Definitely worth a visit if you want a delicious tasty lunch.

What a lovely place. Held a Golden Wedding Party here. Staff couldn’t have been any more helpful. Nothing was too much trouble. We will definitely be back for the next party.

Fabulous restaurant. Warm and welcoming ambiance, delicious food beautifully presented and superb, attentive service. Top of my list of favourite places to dine.

A revelation. A small cafe fab coffee and a great place for meeting family and friends in a safe environment for the little ones Food is ethically produced which is brilliant. Would recommend

Price was good but the 4 little crisps on a plate next to the saddest looking toastie was a little odd and felt like quite a long wait for the food. Jacket potato looked like it had just been stuck in a microwave.

Lovely bagels, great coffee, vegan bagel & green smoothie really nice

very pleasant location as you can watch water skiers whilst you dine on a nice window table like we had! Food and service were very good and we would certainly recommend it to others.

We went for a bottomless brunch and it was really good. Staff, super friendly and helpful and attentive. We had a call button in a private room, yet didn't need it because they kept checking if we needed more drinks as part of the brunch. Food and drinks was very nice. We had the cocktail bottomless brunch and they actually tasted like alcohol unlike a lot of places. Recommend the bottomless brunch as value for money.

Great pub, simple menu but great for a light bite and executed well. Good beer and good service. An oasis just outside of the maelstrom of Bedford.

We came in on short notice for a family meal. The staff were extremely accommodating and Martessa was able to ensure any modifications to the menu were done perfectly. Also thanks to the chef who cooked it all to perfection.

Nice place but very lazy staff at bar, waiting queues all the time, dirty toilets and same old music all the time when I been. Never stay too long, didn't enjoy the time

A really traditional English pub. Nice garden. Good staff

Refurbished since we last visited. Good quality homemade food. Not the best options for Coeliac people as chips are fried in the same oil as other foods. Otherwise a very reasonable place for a meal out.
