The best restaurants serving British food in East of England

Lovely lunch spot, a little pricey but you get what you pay for, the menu is well thought out and our food was delicious, service very attentive and friendly, will defo be returning. The beef tartar starter is exceptional

It's a lovely friendly pub and the nearest anyone has ever got to making Sunday roasts like my mum used to make .Congratulations .it will always be my go to pub when i'm in Leiston .

Quality : Low. Price : High. Pie of the day "Chicken and Leek" turned out to be Steak and Kidney which was indistinguishable as it had been reheated more than once. The mussels were OK ! Offered (one) free coffee as a 'sorry'. Will not be back.

Went here for a carvery at 5pm on a Monday … everything had been ‘kept warm’ since first opening the day. No meats joints on view and had to say which meat we wanted at the till when ordering .. got served with two very miserly half slices of obviously reheated dry meat (asked for more and was given one more half slice very grudgingly). Little jugs of luke warm gravy and lukewarm vegetables (some had run out). Yorkshire pubs were so hard they were difficult to cut ! Overall definitely not worth the money at this time of day at least !

Fantastic atmosphere really enjoyed our Sunday afternoon live dj outside fantastic fish and chip shop staff were really friendly 👌

I found this charming little coffee shop quite by accident while driving through Buntingford. Given my penchant for cappuccino, the desire for a short stop was no surprise. I can recommend this shop wholeheartedly, especially if you enjoy the occasional sweets - I had the honey and bergamot cake with vanilla ice cream. Absolutely wonderful ❤️

When you get to the hotel no luxury rooms no breakfast no bar the hotel is up for sale and your not told but they say their did sorry but no if we had know that we would had booked somewhere else so if you don’t want breakfast or a drink in the evening that find but the room are not good we paid &250 for two nights as we had a family wedding so please be careful

Excellent food, service and welcome. The salads are wonderful. Fresh and good quality ingredients. I’m a healthy eating freak and don’t go for toasties and paninis so a delicious and healthy salad is a rare and welcome option that isn’t offered at a lot of eating places. Their menu is varied catering to different tastes. Oh and their cakes are to die for when you fancy a sweet treat. Book to avoid disappointment as this place is very popular!

The tone of the staff was abrupt and unwelcoming, and our plates were whisked away before checking that we had finished, which was unnecessary considering the cafe was half-empty. As for the food, it was inedible and over-priced, with pale flaccid sausages and a very greasy and salty pudding.

Just had a delicious lunch in the cafe. The special today was steak (or chicken + mushroom) pie, new pots + veg. I had the steak pie, and they couldn't have stuffed another gram of steak into it. The pastry melted in the mouth and the steak was so tender. As said, absolutely delicious 😋

Extrordinarily expensive, they wanted £7 for a 250 ml bottle of cheap rose wine, I questioned this and decided to go elsewhere, very expensive place

As always the staff were helpful and polite. However, we were not happy about the air conditioning being put on in October and as we were sitting almost directly underneath an air vent, it became very uncomfortable and chilly sitting there. This spoilt the experience somewhat. I ordered the salmon muffin for lunch which was on a 'toasted' muffin. Sadly, the muffin was rather soft and didn't taste toasted at all. Otherwise an agreeable place to eat.

Excellent food, wonderful staff! It is a beautiful place to eat and has a lovely, well stocked shop too with provisions and gifts. I love it there, plus, it's dog friendly - dogs even have their own choice of food. Highly recommended!

Took my friend with me and as after 3.30pm obviously no meals then.Had a sausage roll and a piece of cake.I know you only get a slice for £3.95 as like that at other garden centres. If the assistant had not heard me moan about the slice being a slither half the size it is normally,I don't think would have charged me less.We will not be going back and unwelcoming and just felt a nuisance.The worse cafe experience we have had.

We booked for a family Sunday lunch, when calling to book there were a lot of hums and ha’s making it sound really difficult to take our booking. The staff looked as though it was dress-down Sunday. The food was well presented and tasty but very expensive for what it was.
