The best restaurants serving British food in London

I ordered chicken breast from the main menu. The meat was very tough. I told the waiter about this. He replied that this dish is in demand). Then I said that your cook doesn’t know how to cook it. I don't recommend this establishment.

Great Pub. Modern decor. Cozy feeling. Stellar service. And a history unmatched even for the City. Limited hours so try and plan a visit in the evening!

Great little local pub with a variety of TV screens and one large projector screen for watching sports. There were lots of beers on offer as well as spirits and wines. The staff were quick and knowledgeable. The venue itself could do with a liquor paint and a bit of an update apart from that well worth popping In.

One of the oldest Tavern in the World, dates back to 1121 apparently, located in the heart of the City. Really cosy wooden pub with ambient lighting and cheminee. Food was ok, had some small plates, 5 for 35pounds.

I had booked a table for 5 people and the table we were given was a 2 or 3 person table. When I asked to have a different table the management acted very rudely towards me. The staff were very rude and were not friendly. It was not a relaxed or friendly atmosphere to be in. We had booked to have a roast dinner and they had sold out by 2pm ( this was for the vegetarian option). How can you sell out of roast dinners on a Sunday by 2pm?

we were staying in the hotel so booked for dinner in the restaurant online prior to arrival. The menu looked really good. The food was very good but the service was a little slow. Unusual situation bearing in mind there was only one other table occupied.

We booked the kitchen and bar restaurant a couple of weeks in advance notifying them that we would be using our Jumeirah One £100 voucher that we exchanged with our points. We were warmly greeted and sat straight away. Service was very good, though empty inside. We ordered the salt and pepper squid to start which was very nice. Then for mains we had the king prawn linguine which was very nice though lacked any real flavour. Maybe a touch of chilli or something to give it a slight kick. We also had the mixed grill with lamb kofta, chicken skewers and diced lamb. Unfortunately the diced lamb was tough. Surely use lamb neck fillet. Chewy as stewing lamb. Shame. Rest was very nice. Then we came to pay. I said we were paying with a Jumeirah One voucher. My phone was taken to prove the code, we never saw the bill! Then there were a total of four people trying to sort it. Eventually I was told that the voucher couldn’t be found and could I email an address to prove the code. Really. Finally I said I would give it 5 more minutes or walk out. Had enough. Finally I was given the thumbs up that it had been accepted. Still no bill!! And I have now found out that they have deducted not only one voucher but also another £100 voucher without my consent (and I believe the bill was about £90). All in all an embarrassment of an ending. Shame. I await an apology, my second £100 back and maybe some kind of reimbursement too for the problems!!!

Amazing food! Friendly and smiley service! Very cosy atmosphere especially for business lunch or dinner. Highly recommended place!

Chips very under cooked not a nice colour no gold brown parts and mushy Sausage over cooked

good place for food recommend to go. good staff members price not cheap but worth for an experience

One of the top restaurants in Norwich. Beautiful food. Great host, Alex, always on hand to give optimal service. Small elegant restaurant with out the stuffiness. Innovative menu but don’t expect the foam with stick pretence. Not here. Prepared with care and you won’t leave hungry. A wonderful place for special occasions or if you just want a fabulous meal. Reasonable prices for what you are served

We had a fantastic experience here. The USP is definitely the Press for Champagne button in each booth - what a great idea! The beef wellington was perfectly cooked, and the fries perfectly salted! Staff were friendly and attentive. The only downside was that it was a little on the warm side in the restaurant. But other than that, I couldn’t recommend it more! And we will both definitely be back again!

What a disappointing experience. Poor service, food average and fleeced for wines by the glass. I was left standing at the entrance for 5 minutes. You don't mind paying a lot for main courses that deliver but this was just above average bistro fare. I was excited by having goose because it has been a while but it was just bland. My companion's scallops were too salty. Sometimes you just despair for the advice given by the michelin guide. Apropos bistro, the set-up makes you feel like you have arrived in a local bistro, tables so close that privacy is not an option. I was appalled by the price I was paying for a glass of average Chablis. I didnt even think to ask how much it would be, thinking it would be between 10 and 20 quid. Essentially 5 glasses of wine were nearly double the food cost. Even for London, thats just outrageous pretentious nonsense. On leaving they had no idea where the coats were and took an age to find them. This is not Michelin star service. Avoid at all costs! If you can tear yourself away from shoreditch just cross over to barbican and try st barts for a much better experience

We had our company Christmas lunch at The Gatehouse. It was fantastic from start to finish. The booking process was efficient and straightforward and the communication was clear and friendly. When I arrived on the day, everything was ready and we were looked after by the team from the start. Service was excellent, they asked us if we needed more drinks and delivered our food without making us feel like we were being fussed over or ignored. The food was delicious, all 3 courses. I think we tried most things on the set menu between us and everyone was impressed. At the end of lunch, there were a few of us left and we were moved to another quiet area to continue spending time together. All in all, I would highly recommend the Gatehouse. Service with a smile and top food and drink.

Not great. No bar service downstairs. Huge queue at the bar. Will give it a miss next time
