The best restaurants serving British food in South East

I have just had the most delicious Christmas lunch with friends. A friendly welcome, attentive staff. Food arrived hot, which is unusual in some places. Large portions, turkey was succulent and a large portion (I had to take some home). There was a large variety of vegetables. There was a wide selection of puddings which were delicious. My friends have not been before and will definitely be returning!

Simply put, a gem in the area. I have been to this location many times over the years and not once have I been disappointed. The service is always fantastic and the staff are very friendly and make you feel welcome and respected. This is a tradesman’s best friend but also great for families. Photo is of the “Fat boy” breakfast, I wasn’t able to quite finish it but it was delicious and very generous 🍳

Wonderful lunch here. Service was very friendly and efficient. The food was excellent choosing from christmas set menu. Every dish was delicious and beautifully presented. Cannot wait to return to this charming little gem of a restaurant.

Went for a pre-Christmas dinner, and wasn't disappointed ! Great food. Fast service. A really tidy, clean place ! Recommended.

The atmosphere was so good and the team who looked after us were delightfully friendly. We had fish which was superb! The wine was top just right and reasonable.

Great cinemas, really comfortable, well run, friendly staff and there's a bar to take a drink in with you to enjoy the movie.

Super gezellige tea room met een echt engels ontbijt. Tijdens onze eerste vakantie in de UK heb en we hier een ontbijt gegeten. Erg vriendelijk personeel en lekker eten.

We enjoyed our pre-Christmas gathering over the Crown and Bear Christmas special. Lovely food and happy to provide extra gravy for the roast dinners.

Excellent quality food. Highly recommended.

Great food, served by lovely people !

Good place to go out with friends to eat. Food was superb, beer was excellent. Pity it's 250 miles from home.

Very friendly staff and tastey.xx pub grub.

We Love this Place! My daughter Has Afrid and Really struggles with eating out because It’s a little harder to cater to her needs and she feel uncomfortable when asking for additional changes/adaptions, Well The Island Fishbar went above and beyond the first time I took her in their and she was so comfortable and enjoyed her meal so much we are now regulars! She happily asks For her food in a way she can eat it and theres never a problem, You ask, you get. She is so confident that she will ask all by herself for her meal with her specific instructions (seperate plate or no food touching ect) This was even her place of choice for her birthday dinner treat, It also makes life a little easier for me As I’m not stressed about finding somewhere or worrying About if the food she wants is stocked ect The staff are lovely! Especially the young waitress what a sweetheart She is. Great place all round
