The best restaurants serving British food in South West

Whilst doing some last minute Christmas shopping popped in to Costa Enjoyed a perfect coffee , superb hot chocolate and delicious mince pie Everything perfect Despite being busy the staff were polite professional and welcoming Manager Radu ensured that everyone felt special and valued He’s an absolute asset to Costa - I hope he stays in Exeter

Went in with two grandchildren did a bit of shopping kids said they were hungry while waiting in the queue we witnessed the girl doing the breakfast wiping her hands on her trousers and use her fingers to remove egg yolk she then adjusted someone's egg with her fingers we mentioned this to staff and was told it was probably someone who she just put on there to help out kids still wanted to eat to as they were only having nuggets and chips thought what could go wrong and actually they were both happy but on mine and husbands plate you could of broken a tooth with the black pudding eggs were rock hard and mushrooms cold when mentioned this the lady at the till she didn't even know what the black pudding was

This cafe has the best view in Looe, staff are always nice and to have a cuppa and look at the view is something I love to do. Now lets talk about Fish and Chips. Looe has many places but the Fish and Chips served is outstanding. Fresh daily fish, crispy batter and superb chips. I can honestly say this is the best in the area. And of course the amazing view to accompany it. I simply love this little cafe with welcoming staff and great food and drinks. Thank you Beach Cafe.

Hotel very nice and clean staff good restaurant and bar very clean and helpful breakfast plentiful and tasty plenty of room in car park pool and spa area very clean room spacious and clean

Only 24 reviews for this venue ??? That is dreadful. Had afternoon tea here with my Mother and 2 friends - and everything brought was for 3 people - yet there was 4 of us. All the cakes were exactly the same and I am not in the habit of having 2 pieces of the same thing. Complete hash up with the tea , everything was wrong and not a soul to complain to. Invisible staff. Bad decor. Cheap cafe food and impropperly delivered by the kitchen staff who obviously were having a bad day. Appalling shame for Bournem,outh as I remember when this hotel was the best in town, but now with new Hiltons and maga bucks being invested in oither new superior hotels in Bournemouth, the Carlton will remain some place that once was a good venue but has now slipped way down in quality, style, service, food and even the bedrooms are below par - well below par.

We had a lovely cream tea here and sat upstairs, overlooking The Quay, enjoying the view. We had two huge homemade scones each and there was plenty of jam and clotted cream to go with them...delicious. The staff were friendly and the service was good, so we were happy.

I met my friend for coffee and a pastry/scone/cake. None of these items were gluten free. The only available gluten free item was a small pre packed fruit bar I was extremely disappointed that a company like Waitrose did not provide for people with allergies in the cafe when there is a good range to purchase within the store

Very disappointing although the sandwich I ordered was tasty. I arrived just gone 1pm for lunch. No-one around to greet me, bar staff totally oblivious to my presence. Found a table and sat there for over 10 minutes, still nobody appeared. Eventually, I went to the bar to order. My sandwich took about 20 minutes to arrive. It was not busy but service was slow. Asked for a glass of water which never arrived. Overall a disappointing experience for a supposed 4* hotel.

Went in with family after a hospital appointment I’m so glad they named the breakfast “all day breakfast” It seemed as though we waited all day for it to be served A very quiet time , no queuing ,plenty of tables vacant , no excuse ! It wasn’t worth the wait either Won’t be returning

Great place if you want rubbish chips we spent about £18 pound in here and not happy with the chips we received what a waste of money!!!

I have never known such a slow service anywhere. The system you are using to take orders, make drinks and serve food badly needs revising and stream lining. It is slow and totally inefficient. I waited for 10 minutes in a long queue that didn't move, but then gave up and went elsewhere.

Smell of bad fats on entry, very cramped and unpleasant seating area, unfriendly staff cuttlery not properly dry, food was awful. Avoid at all costs !

Extremely poor service, waited nearly 25 minutes for drinks and almost an hour for food. No information regarding wait times on arrivql. Other customers looking at watches, trying to gain staff attention as they too had been waiting a significant time to be served. All in all, an unpleasant experience.

The loopy Chief Executive in charge of M&S who claims to know “Mrs M&S” has taken another giant step in destroying M&S The Deli restaurant in Cribbs M&S has been closed down and removed Not only has the Beijing women’s clothing become a complete joke but the oasis where customers could have nice food and drink has gone Great management decisions More money available to pay buyers to cruise around the Far East looking for more disgusting clothing to buy by the container full and tell “Mrs M&S” this is what you want to wear 🤪

A great lunch or casual dinner place is right in the supermarket! We had a great meal when we just went in for a quick snack after a successful food shopping trip. Kudos to the kitchen staff, especially JASON, who made us feel welcome and served up some great food (fish and chips, cheeseburgers, fries, hamburgers, chicken nuggets for the children). I'd go back any time we're shopping in Chippenham.
