The best restaurants serving British food in South East

With so many chains in the high street in Windsor, it's hard to find an independent bakery/coffee shop, so Rex is an excellent find. The sourdough breads are great for taking away and toasting. Pastries fresh and delicious. But what made it stand out was the service from Meral, the manager. She knows how to welcome people, prepare an excellent eating experience , providing us with all the sit down service. We didn't need to ask keep asking for anything. She was instinctive and knew what we wanted. She is an asset. Thank you Meral!!

Brilliant breakfast, cooked fresh every time and tailored to individual requests. Friendly staff and very reasonable prices. Tucked away at the back of an airport hangar it’s a bit tricky to find but we’ll worth it.

We came for the afternoon tea and we loved it. The presentation and quality was good. The restaurant has nice view to grounds with many colourful flowers. Anna has been amazing . So friendly and helpful. Nice selection of teas. We definitely will be back. We were told that zanetta from kitchen prepared our afternoon tea.

We have been here many times, always hoping it is going to be better.... The setting is lovely, and the coffee is nice. We have also had the odd nice lunch. But the cafe is let down by the cakes and interior. The conservatory is always so grubby - dusty, filthy chairs, and don't look at the floor - its always covered in dirt and crumbs - it wouldn't hurt to get the broom out inbetween customers. They welcome dogs in here which is fine, but must understand extra cleaning is therefore required. The cakes are the biggest let down. They are nearly always either dry / overly sweet (loaded with excess and unnecessary chocolate sweets) or rock hard. They are also now really, really expensive. There is always a selection of 6 slices of cookie/brownie/blondie, that type of thing. Quite often several are sold out already before lunchtime so choice is limited. Service is hit and miss, depending on who serves you! If you can get a seat outside it's lovely by the creek. Come on Cafe By The Creek - this place could be amazing! Don't let your customers down!

First time eating here, friendly staff, excellent service and delicious hot food. Very busy and popular place 2mins away from the beach, shops and markets.

Good home made traditional grub served by hospitable host Becky stayed open for me last customer .good portions good priced too .

Sunday lunch was not good at all. Two very small thin slices of meat , hard un-crispy potatoes, and a bowl of steamed vegetables. It did not feel like a tasty delicious roast lunch that you go out for a treat. No parsnips, no stuffing, no crackling or cauliflower cheese. The Yorkshire was quite burnt. The lemon possett I had for dessert was delicious. Shame about the roasts. The service was not particularly welcoming or friendly. Really lovely views out across the sea.

This is the best chippy we have found in MK. Once again, I ordered for the Central MK W.I. Birthday meeting. The order was taken, checked, and ready for collection at exactly the right time. Thank you and see you again soon.

Tried to eat here but was told that the whole area was booked for coach parties. We were guests at the hotel. I politely thanked the member of staff who then said "you have to understand this!" Very surly and poor service. The bar area was packed, with a large queue of people waiting for service

Delicious eggs royale, perfectly cooked eggs! The latte was hot and hit the spot, lattes are often cold. Excellent fast service, and efficient staff.

We attended Eastwell Manor for Sunday Lunch but because of the lack of trained staff and the bad management, we had an awful time. We were left waiting for 30 minutes before someone came to take our drinks order. There were about 15 different gins and 10 vodkas on the menu and we ordered a Hendricks and tonic. 20 minutes later, the waitress came back to tell me that they didn't have that Gin. I asked which ones they had and off she went again for another 10 minutes. When she returned, she said there was only 1 gin available. I then asked about the vodkas and once again she disappeared for about 5 minutes and returned to tell me that they only had 2 vodkas available. We felt very sorry for her as obviously this was not her fault but the fault of the manager. Why were the staff not informed at the beginning of their shift what items were unavailable. Common sense really!! We were informed that we would need to order our dessert at the same time as our starter and main course or we would wait "hours" Our roast dinners arrived and there was no horseradish or mustard or any other sauces available. I asked the man who brought our dinners for another drink and he told me I had to catch someone's eye as he couldn't take orders for drinks. When you actually managed to speak to anyone, they were very pleasant and we felt very sorry for them having to work in these conditions. There were complaints from many other people also. The lunch dragged on and I was glad when it was over- move over Basil Fawlty. is the restaurant closing down? That would explain why there was such a poor menu. The food itself was wonderful. What a shame that the management aren't!

Sammy was such a delight and helpful

Had lunch 4 adults & toddler. Staff very friendly & helpful. Service very good. Food also very good. Nice view out to sea.

Perfect spot for lunch and drinks. Had fish and chips, top class. Sunday roast was also good, never been disappointed with lamb. Recommend!

Hard one: salmon nicoise v good. Lasagna dreadful - a cold slab of (actually juicy) shin beef ruined by thick heavy custard bechamel (?). No silky tomato sauce ( I’ve done it with a rich puttanesca and it can be delish). A bit of cold side salad an 2 slices of ciabatta Quite indigestible Chef night off? Leftovers? Fab pub but avoid this special!!!
