The best restaurants serving British food in Barking and Dagenham London

English owned and very nice food

Got a takeaway recently, food was lovely but I've never been charged for liquor from any pie shop before. Very strange as liquor is part of the meal

What a lovely little gem of a cafe in RM8. Really clean, bright, airy with generous portions and a huge choice on the menu.

This cafe is in the heart of Barking. They cater for a variety of tastes and I love the combination of bacon and salad in the BLT. The salads are always fresh and the serving area is clean. The staff are attentive, but not over bearing. I think this is an ideal English cafe

Incredible Full English breakfast, amazing service, super polite staff, everything was top notch!

Very good and the food was great value nice indeed.

Bloody joke, battered sausage, ! Size of a small A1 battery, " where's your pride gone, mugged of, not anymore, no wonder you close 9pm to dear, prices, ago we queued for food, arrr !

I am a very fussy eater and I must say I was worried when I saw my steak but when I took a bite it was cooked to perfection and the flavour was so tasty and steak was juicy and soft. Potato skins with shredded meat & cheese sauce (omg my new addiction) they tasted so nice and the cheese sauce was so yum! My only complaint I have is you have to pay separately for a sauce to pour over your steak. I ordered peppercorn sauce which was £3.50 for a small pot. I think for the price you’re paying for a steak 1 sauce should be given complimentary or you should be allowed to swap a sauce instead of having gravy as no one on our table ate the gravy that comes with the steak. Other than that everything was amazing. Thank you ♥️

Came for dinner on the Indian night and The food is outstanding! Very good portions, papadoms and dips were free and the food was better than our usual Indian restaurant. Would recommend coming. We will be coming every week. Staff are very polite and helpful.

Absolutely love coming to The Tollgate — it’s got that perfect mix of a welcoming atmosphere, great drinks, and brilliant service. Mark (the manager) always goes above and beyond to make you feel at home, and the barmaid who works Saturdays is warm, attentive, and brings a really lovely energy to the place. Whether you’re popping in for a quiet pint or a weekend catch-up with friends, you’re guaranteed a great experience. Highly recommend!

What's not to like about this place.. easy to get to get to, friendly atmosphere and a lovely beer garden to enjoy the sunshine, will be looking forward to seeing what more they can add to this with their refurb but really hope Kristina and her team continue the effort they always put in to welcome everyone

Great friendly local karaoke nights are well supported. Bar staff are great. Home from home for me lol

Brilliant customer service, warm welcome. Great prices. Good selection of beer. Have never had a bad evening in this pub or a bad drink.

Great delivery guy. one of the best. He was teaching me about 1999 Indian bollywood music and also the great actor Shah Rukh Khan. Very good customer service. Best curry place in East London and Essex. Wonderful food 😋.

Dinner was awlful waited an hour even though no one was in there my steak was raw gravy was cold it advertised it came with mushrooms and tomato no there was only onions and lots of them chips were warm
