The best restaurants serving British food in South East

Great value for money, I went with an aunt for pre theatre fish and chips ,I had a good sized thick fillet with crispy batter, and a perfectly cooked soft cod inside , it was delicious. the chips were standard chips but perfectly cooked . All the condiments were branded and plentiful. We had apple crumble and ice cream , the crumble no nonsense traditional Apples and spices with a good crumble topping , I have eaten in pubs where you are paying £17.50 for fish and chips (see last review😁) and had dreadful food , so thought I would up the four candles , Credit where it’s due . Also the waitress who served us was lovely and very helpful .

You can't beat value in a spoons.. and food, drink and service pretty good there too

Here for lunch today and had a really good time. Bren, Mickey and Dave, we’re all making the time they’re good for all customers. The pizza was lovely and cooked fresh. Thankyou all. Would highly recommend coming here, it’s a very relaxed environment and the staff are brilliant

Lovely Monday night dinner. The menu has plenty of choices so there is something for everyone. The staff were polite and attentive

Absolutely delicious and served within minutes of ordering. Worth every penny and the train journey over from Hastings. I had the large haddock and chips, mushy peas, tartar sauce, bread and butter and a pot of earl grey tea. Everything was so fresh, tasty, best quality and cooked to perfection. You can't beat frying in beef dripping. Lovely lady serving and great atmosphere. It doesn't get any better than Harry Ramsden's...

A massive and quite grand looking pub from the outside which is only reinforced once you enter although it does seem to shrink a bit once you're inside. Even so, it is a wide and deep pub with the bar on the right as you enter with loads of seating everywhere. This particular building was destroyed in the war and had been W&H Stevenson’s long-standing ‘costumers, mantle makers and milliners’. The staff were very pleasant as usual and a few of the local characters were out to play as well, so made for an even more interesting visit. The fish and chips were excellent as was the Guinness.

Great spoons. Staff are terrific, friendly and quick.

Went to the Humphrey bean today and I was served by a lovely young lady Tanya who made sure we were taken care of. She went out her way to make our experience a pleasant one. Best service I’ve had from spoons

Thank you Mateo! Your service is truly outstanding

My family and I really enjoyed our food. The steak was cooked to perfection. All the staff were friendly and welcoming. All our food arrived at the same time and piping hot. Would highly recommend a visit.

We went for Boxing Day dinner which was ok for a pub meal. However when I went to the toilet ( female) I found them dirty and in need of a good refurbishment. One cubicle had no toilet roll and the toilet was dirty so I tried the next cubicle and that had a missing toilet seat. The next two cubicles were tatty and dirty. The hand washing area was dirty and I don’t mean it was from being used all day. The area around the radiators filthy and clearly had not been cleaned for some time. The whole area had flaking plaster which looked like it had just been painted over. The question which occurred to me is is the kitchen up to scratch hygiene wise considering the state of the toilets.

Cheap drinks with the usual wetherspoons drunken mess on a corner table...

We stopped for lunch whilst on a long walk. The food was of a good standard and Meg was very friendly. We had a really nice time.

French fries contain a lot of oil There is No olive oil with sauces

This place is amazing.. the food is amazing. Ben the chef is brilliant. It has amazing atmosphere and all the staff are so nice 😍 even if you just come in for a coffee . Dogs are welcome and the location is superb. We spend almost every weekend here we love it .. Steve, Nicky and Harvey (the dog)
