The best restaurants serving British food in South West

We arrived at The Nelson and was greeted with a lovely smile, ordered 2 x beef roast dinners and 2 x Ringwood 49ers, meal arrived pretty soon, didn't have to wait long, talk about stunning meal, loads of beef, veg and potatoes, including their creamy leek and stuffing ball, everything was hot and delicious as usual, as this wasn't the first time, meals are excellent, well worth a visit.. five stars all round from our reservation in the name of Carol

If you follow the postcode for this establishment you'll end up in a field miles away! If you go to co-ordinates; N52.06.329, W 03.49.370 you will get a good pint and you'll meet probably one of the best landlords in the country. Enjoy

We stopped off for Sunday lunch without pre booking. The Sunda roast was amazing with plenty of it. They are also very dog friendly, which was a real bonus for us. Woud highly reccommend.

Smallest 'Medium' Past I have ever seen. How much have you reduced their size? When I asked if the morsel I was holding was a medium, I was told ''fraid so' They are tiny! I was at Trego but couldnt find their outlet on here. The meat was tasty enough but gererally too moist and are non-descript, one-up-from-greggs petit fours. Tiny I tell thee.

We were asked to book an earlier table due to being busy. We got there and there was only one other table eating. We waited 25 minutes for our food order to be taken, and another 50 minutes for it to actually come out. We were told there were only two pizza bases left, so only two of our table could order pizza (which makes up the majority of their menu!), only for another table behind us to come in later... And order pizzas! They forgot the cheese on one of the burgers. We were told they were unable to add cheese and bacon to another burger (the pulled pork burger) because it was "something from the specials menu". They completely forgot a third burger! It wasn't the fault of the guy serving us, he was great, very amenable, but the service was massively let down by whatever shower of detritus that was going on in the kitchen. The food was expensive and not worth the money. We won't be returning.

Popped in for a drink and Wow! This pub has been very tastefully modernised, stylish but subtle from every aspect. Too much to explain, go se for yourself. There is also a games room and garden. Drinks were reasonably priced.

Best prawns we’ve ever tasted in a jacket potato,along with coleslaw and salad. We could not fault a thing. All round excellence.

Friendly welcoming staff were covid aware and brewed a great latte to take away. If you prefer real coffee to a tea shop it’s definitely worth popping off the main road to take a short stop here.

Visited whilst in Padstow on a lovely Summer’s day and stopped by for an ice cream. Chose Harbour Ices as there was no queue compared to all the other ice cream shops which had long queues. The service was poor and abrupt., genuinely unfriendly. Having been served with one ice cream and whilst choosing a second asked for a sample of one of the two I was choosing between but met with a resounding. “Absolutely not”. So different to all the other ice cream shops we visited during our stay in Cornwall who couldn’t have been happier or more friendly. As it was both ice creams chosen were distinctly average / poor. Shame, but would never return or recommend to others based on the service and quality of their products. Suggest others visit Rick Stein’s shop for lovely ice creams and great service if in Padstow. Exactly the same price at £3.50. Alternative if travelling to Fowey, I’d highly recommend Game of Cones (close to the ferry and car parks) instead who offer more flavours, brilliant service and cheaper prices too!

We stopped with a caravan . Followed the signs for caravans . No designated caravan places . It was the overflow car park, caravan & trailers were using double car parking spaces which were short and narrow and couldn’t turn into them properly or turn out with any degree of ease . Had to reverse the caravan when luckily no one was parked behind to enable to turn out . We did not stop very long and bought no coffee or food . Totally misleading .

Quite a “staff canteen” but open to visitors / public. Excellent choice / variety of food and very competitively priced. Hot drinks are bizarre; you pay at the till and then receive an empty cup to go and serve yourself tea / coffee. Self clean after eating.

Lovely staff, had a medium steak pasty, good size and value. Got it bagged up to take away ewith a nice coffee.

Joel is always super friendly and delivers great service. Food is delicious

Was a bit busy but great staff and food! Sofia was our server and she did a fantastic job

Fantastic service from Ellie at The Yachtsman Pub last Friday! She was warm, attentive, and made our meal even more enjoyable with her friendly manner and food recommendations. Thank you, Ellie—we’ll definitely be back!
