The best restaurants serving British food in Crawley South East

On approaching the restaurant walked past 3 kitchen staff smoking sitting on the grit bins. Booked table online as thought maybe busy but was surprised to find it quite quiet, took ten minutes to get the attention of the waitress to order our drinks and food and then another 50minutes for me to ask and point out that our food was waiting on the serving hatch for the last 5minutes. And then waited an age for us to be offered the desert menus to de the staff then clearing a table that had been left for an hour. The salad bar was poor and half empty and hearing families being told it would be an hour and half for a table when there was only a max of 4 tables with people eating didn’t seem right. On speaking to a staff member was told it was because they have been taken over by the hawth and half the staff have been sacked and the the rest have been cut right back so was only two serving staff on shift.

Over £4 for a latte that had zero taste, was given to me immediately so wasn't freshly made, and tasted like the milk was watered down (I use semi skimmed at home so it's not that). Threw it away

I come here for the best lasagne around! The breakfasts are good too, the staff are friendly, the place is clean and it gets busy, always a good sign. I’ve brought veggie and vegan friends, too, and there are dishes to suit them as well. It’s a great place to eat on your way to Gatwick airport.

The Full Monty gets you: - 1 x sausage 2 x bits of streaky bacon (hard and tasteless) 2 x soft fried eggs (yolks hard) 1 x slice of black pudding (thin and dried out ) 1 x pot of baked beans (about 3 teaspoons) 1x hash brown (dried out) 1 portion fried potatoes (hard and dried out) 1 portion mushrooms (dried out) 1 x slice off toast with liquified butter from being keep near hot shelf. EIGHTEEN (18) POUNDS!! No servers to take order, use the app. Shown to table. Plates brought and removed. Smiles and hello’s? No. Unbelievably bad food and Incredibly bad value. Should have complained but too British, we just accept rubbish.

Ordered food the waitresses were great, the food was good, quite a lot of choice on the menu, overall a very enjoyable meal.

This place used to be one of the best around but in recent months it has slowly declined. Quality and quantity is reducing gradually while prices are increasing. Chips are hard and dry and portion sizes are inconsistent. Fish much smaller and a large portion now resembles small elsewhere. Such a shame... time to go elsewhere

We came for drinks and food for the kids. Great atmosphere and food for the kids was reasonably priced. Staff were great. Praise to Charlotte, Iaien and Bo. Very attentive and great service.

Great overnight stop restaurant. Like all London area restaurants a bit pricey. Hey ho

Dream work makes the team work, outstanding service. Portions were large and food was incredible. Everyone was looked after . Service with big friendly smiles. Highly rate this place

Possibly the worst quality food ever seen at any Wetherspoons. Granted i did not complain at the time due to time constraints and no wish to embarrass my business partner but after complaining online a week later, received a stock email saying they would do nothing to rectify the situation.

Fair enough....some people are not A persons yet if you are working around 5AM you have to be pro and offer friendly service and not being rude and offer bad service. My wife got very rude service but funny thing that changed a bit when the staff member saw her use a crutch. Of in the hell should that matter........... The food came fast and for the price we paid way way higher for breakfast than in Crawley and Brighton, the portion was small and the food less than average. We have had all over the world much better food and service in airports so I would stay away from this one.............

Booked here as we were jetting off on holiday following day and were staying at a nearby airport hotel, well we were firstly greeted by lots of dirty tables & food on the floor Watched in horror as ques were forming to take food orders at the bar …never in my life have I ever been to harvester and ordered at the bar. Waited for 14 mins before a poor waitress who was running around like a headless chicken said someone will be with you shortly …yeah I said to my family let’s go!!! The salad bar was empty and messy , very very minimal staff….of they don’t have enough they simply shouldn’t be open !!! Never ever would I go back

Parfait pour les petits budgets avec un grand choix de burgers, pizza et autres mais pour ce prix là n'attendez ni qualité ni quantité. 20 livres pour 3 plats et 3 boissons. personnel souriants et sympas

A quick lunch with mum . We had sausages rolls and Belgium buns and tea all delicious. I have a couple of downsides I told the server we was eating in but he put two sausage rolls in one bag and the two buns in one bag . No plates or serviettes no sauce I had to help myself to more bags . Also the shop was very dirty mess all over the floor and the customer toilets was very dirty and no toilet roll available . Half the seating area was also closed. This used to be a great place to eat with plates and proper cups it’s hit rock bottom now .

Live music, particularly the open mic, drew me here. It's a friendly, locals-type pub, with interesting food and great live music.
