The best restaurants serving British food in East of England

Went for dinner out of beef which was fine but the service was slow the foot was stale and hard not fresh and to top it off a few hours after we got home my whole family was sick including my 1 year old we have all been sick multiple times! This is the only thing we have eaten that could have made us all poorly!

Went on a Sunday afternoon with a friend for a meal. Nice atmosphere and a fairly quick food service, although our mains were annoyingly brought out about 10 minutes apart. But the food was lovely and generous portions. Would return!

Popped in on Friday night for drinks with my friend who was visiting. We had the Perfect Girls Night! The bar was beautifully lit, felt cosy, and great atmosphere. The building was warm with fun back ground music. Prosecco tasted divine and chilled to perfection. Staff were so welcoming and attentive. We had the best night and no taxi’s needed! Will try the cocktails next time. Super happy we have Olio ‘s in our village.

I am from Australia, and must say the battered fish was a bit dry. Chips were great though.

We had the jacket potato with tuna mayo served with a small salad. Really enjoyed the food in this quaint ancient pub. We just had to have the apple pie and custard to finish and we were not disappointed it was superb. Highly recommend our choice in this great pub.

Awesome experience ! Had an issue re another worker forgetting to put a dish to the kitchen, she was a little snappy also but the lady who took over from her was amazing ! She apologised and went above and beyond to help us and resolve the issue ! She changed it to a pleasurable lunch and treated us like queens ! Her name is Nicki and she deserves a pack on the back. She was friendly, kind and did her utmost to make us feel welcome . The other lady could take a lesson from her !!

Such a shame Harvester is closing, but I’m very glad the team will be back when the place reopens as Miller & Carter. And what a brilliant team it is! Everyone welcomes us warmly and goes to great lengths to ensure we have an excellent visit. The food is always great and the service is spot on - not in your face but there’s always someone there when you need them. Really looking forward to being able to go back in May.

went from dinner with the family tonight and i must say we had a lovely time from the moment we got there we was met at the door by the male manager who showed us to our table and our waiters was Jenny who was lovely and the food was nice we loved the selection of meat there was and the veg was full and looked fresh. we will be coming back again soon

On arrival at my booking time, I waited for several minutes at Check-In. Then a lady staff member rushed by saying: "back in a sec". She never came back! After 5 more minutes, I walked into the table area to find a member of staff; he seated me. Jody was my server, she was most helpful (but couldn't explain the strange behaviour of her colleague). Good ending but a very unsatisfactory start.

Great place to watch the footy, and great to see some classic banter from the manager to all the Tottenham fans. Well played that man. The beer selection is 2nd to none...

Great service and very polite . The food was lovely and hot and was cooked to perfection. I would definitely recommend having a meal and drinks here

Rubbish food compared with others. 4 of us are here today. The guy behind the bar was excellent and the food was out quick but.. Mains served before starters cleared. Garlic bread stale and inedible Korean chicken burger was shocking. Tiny slaw in burger, bun split apart and whilst it was sticky, it was tasteless. Totally different to the Korean burger at the Junction in Upminster which is also GK and is incredible. So disappointed

Only ordered hot drinks and server (Tilly) was very friendly. Took a while for drinks to be prepared. Lots of staff making drinks so no need for delay Atmosphere good

The parking machine wasn’t working, so the staff member told me it’s okay I can go ahead and order my breakfast, if I get a parking ticket to bring it back in and they will have it cancelled. I got the ticket, brought it in and have now been informed that the policy has changed and I will have to pay the £75 parking fine. I also contacted Wetherspoon head office, who said it was my responsibility, even though the machine wasn’t working at the time and their staff member told me to stay.

I brought my grandson to notcutts today, 13 months old. I was looking forward to sharing some quality time with him looking at the animals and decorations. He knocked over some Christmas crackers. I put them back up. One of your female staff, proceeded to tell me that if he (my grandson) is a toucher, there are a lot of breakable things around. I was mortified and embarrassed and proceeded to leave. I will not be returning again, ever.
