The best restaurants serving British food in North West

Today, after buying food with a friend, we went to a shop recommended by a friend who was born in Hong Kong. The proprietress was very friendly and we tried several Hong Kong-style fried noodles and rice. The dishes were delicious and reasonably priced. Not expensive😍will come again

Booked for an anniversary dinner but due to poorly child had to cancel the morning of. £45 charge to cancel a table within 48 hours! We hadn't even booked 48 hours in advance so I don't think they should be too worried about not filling the table. Rude and overpriced, won't be re-booking.

Precis: Wow! Excellent! Any other superlative you choose! Full review: What a wonderful gem of a find! From the start the welcome was warm and friendly. Nothing was too much trouble for Gary, Donna and their team; what a diamond they have found in Jack! The quality of the furnishings is very high, the fittings top class and the home made biscuits in the bedroom were delicious! Even a welcome decanter of sherry to start off your stay! The hallway walls are adorned with award plaques from numerous organisations! The grounds were extensive and very well kept. We had read about the wild red squirrels and hoped we may get to spot one - no fears there; we watched them running around the garden and feeder each day! Now for the food! Absolutely excellent! Each evening started at 7pm with canapés and good conversation with fellow guests, most of whom seem to be repeat visitors, with good reason! Gary is very personable and quite the bon viveur, his knowledge of wine is excellent, after all by his own admission he has been in the game for a good number of years! The four course dinner menu is set, no choices, but the menu is on display each morning and I'm sure that alternatives could be organised if enough notice were given. Each course was exquisite, served piping hot (where appropriate!) and presented beautifully, as was the table in general. Service was efficient, friendly and knowledgeable. Breakfast was just as good! Hazel Bank has seven rooms and the restaurant is open only to residents. All this means that each guest gets very personal, and personable, service from start to finish! If you think that this review is a little enthusiastic then I doubt you've visited! Don't get me wrong, it isn't for everybody and nowhere is totally perfect, but Hazel Bank gets VERY close!

Great food great value and friendly helpful service. A good find.

Consistently delicious year after year! Fantastic yet again, Thank you 😀. The staff are friendly and attentive. Always busy so sometimes have to wait, but worth any wait times!!!

First time last night, with family that have been before, wot a great place, food was excellent, staff very friendly and the irish coffee for lush, will definitely be back

This was our second time at The Old Stamp House. It has been excellent on both occasions. Delicious inventive dishes from excellent local produce. Sublime cooking in a relaxed comfortable setting. We'll be back a third time.

Lovely place. The service was friendly and a warm welcome. The food was excellent 👌

Absolutely lovely cafe. Always come here for lunch every time we visit new Brighton . Had the chicken wrap. Gorgeous! 😋 The chips are to die for Staff are so friendly and accommodating

We enjoyed a fantastic meal here. The food was exceptional. Of particular note were the veloute and blade of beef but everything was delicious. Service was professional and welcoming. We would definitely return when in the area.

Pooley Bridge is a great location to stay and explore the Northern Lakes with several very welcoming inns with great beer gardens and decent food. The 1863 Restaurant & Rooms however is on a different level altogether. We stayed for two nights in the Luxury Suite (room 7) which, although smaller than we had anticipated, was extremely comfortable and well appointed. The real reason to stay here though is to enjoy the restaurant experience. On our first night we had the 3 course option which was imply superb. The presentation, quality of food and level of attention from the team were all exceptional. We indulged ourselves with the 7 course "Taster" menu on the 2nd night which actually turned out to be almost 10 courses with the little extras that arrived. We thought our first experience would be hard to improve on but night two and the 7 course option was simply sublime. Thank you to all of the team for making our stay so special.

Excellent family meal. Lovely staff and even better food. 10/10

Sat outside. Good service. The best pies ever.

We had a lovely Sunday lunch at Six one six. The food was very good and good value! Great atmosphere, it was a bonus having live music. The service was excellent and Matthew was very welcoming and is very passionate about his business. It sounds like there’s lots to enjoy for all coming up at Six one Six! We’ll be back to try more of the menu and the events on offer!

Amazing food, this is a different level
