The best restaurants serving British food in South East

The best spot in the whole of Hastings, completely wasted. Such a shame.

Lovely gift friendly service and the cream tea was delicious all very clean and across the road was a park so we did a walk as well

Worst fish and chips I have ever had. Unfriendly, food was cold, staff were rude and there was bugs in the shop. Do not visit

Called without prior booking to this quaint pub/restaurant in the centre of South Wraxall. Old building with low ceiling, but nicely decorated. Friendly staff. Delicious fish pie with butter mash and seasonal greens. Large pieces of fish 4 different varieties.

I had some fish and chips….but there was no fish…was a thing wrapped and boiled in oil…no fish this time for me

Very unpleasant lady serving. Chips were not cooked properly and looked like a greasy pile, stuck together. Won’t go again.

There food is very good . the Chicken Tikka is 10/10 the Lamb Donner is 10/10 and it actually tastes like lamb unlike other places The masala fish is excellent

I did not enter the building nor would I - but I sat in my car for 45 minutes at the EV charger but the despicable sharks who own the site have fined my for sitting in an EV charging bay? So now you have to pay to park apparently to charge your car. Even though I wasn't in a car park bay I was in the only EV charging bay that I was directed to. There was no signage near the charger to ask for parking payment. It is all a dishonest odious scam. No wonder the criminal who owns the company is worth 85 million - it is called day light robbery

We stayed close by and as this was virtually on the doorstep we ate here. There were some great menu choices as they had just changed their menu. I had a vegetarian option and the salad was tasty and flavoursome.

We bought three hog sausage rolls and thought the price was a little excessive, however wanted to see if the £4.75 (Small sausage rolls) was worth it or not? Well we didn’t think so! The taste was bland and nothing special. We didn’t like that there was not price on anything in there shop and presented a £10 to female shop assistant/ owner and was given a sarcastic remark, of you being optimistic! Which took us back! If you like an over priced, tasteless sausage roll, well this is the place for you?

There were plenty of food outlets but the experience of the disabled toilets took my appetite away! the key to the toilets had to be obtained from the adjacent branch of Smiths which would suggest some control over the place. However, on entering it was obvious that the pull down support arm to the right of the toilet was missing, with a bare patch of plaster where it had been attached to the wall. the toilet itself was not flushed after the previous user, and i found that in fact the flush didnt work effeciently, producing only a trickle of water after several attempte.. The was basin tap was loose, although it did provide an adqhate amount of water. the floror was filthy with strange unidentifyable blobs 0f something unidentifyable but probably organis scattered about.! I had no idea who to report this to and i have limited mobility i didnt pursue the matter at the time.

We were on a culinary tour of restaurants and pubs in Brighton. Both chefs with 30 years experience in food and beverage. We chose this place because it’s on the beach and our hotel was just across the road. We had to experience many places so had only one dish we went to in each place. On arrival the lady behind the bar couldn’t care less if we were there or not. Not even a hello. Looking at the staff, they seem to be chosen by looks rather than their customer service skills. We ordered the whitebait to share and 2 beers. One was a mango IPA which we had never heard of. It doesn’t taste of mango that’s for sure. We then went to sit at the table near the beach which was pleasant. The whitebait arrived promptly. Stuffed into a paper pouch and soon as we tipped it on the plate it was limp and soggy. It should be crispy. The jalapeño mayo was tasteless. Not a hint of spice. We wondered if it was just mayo? Also served with a tiny piece of dried out lime with no juice. Really poor.

We stood for some time behind a notice which told us to wait to be shown to a seat. Other people seemed to be going straight to a table and were served before us, but we were concerned that staff wouldn't realise we were there (it's quite a big space!). Finally one of the staff spotted us waiting and showed us to a table. Instead of taking our order straight away she drifted off and didn't return until about ten minutes later. Finally we received our breakfast, which was good but spoilt by an unnecessary long wait. Then we had to wait for the bill, which led us to wonder if anyone slips out without paying. The organisation could be much improved!

M40 pitstop and plenty of choice. Don't remember the toilets being particularly unkempt, some poor reviews on here, maybe when it gets very busy? M&S butty and a Costa, bit of a wait for the coffee as guy training. I'm sure attrition is high in these places, he was polite and trying his best. We found somewhere to sit, again it was clean, no issues, maybe we were lucky mid afternoon on a Wednesday, it was fairly quiet.

Nice spot, lovely staff but!! Building in need of updating, and the food is of very low quality, and overpriced, also waited a long time and then part of the order we placed was not ordered by the staff member taking orders! This is a historic venue but sadly it was probably at its best in 1965 😢
