The best restaurants serving British food in England

A warm and friendly welcome was just what we needed on a cold winter’s day. Very good food and coffee, prompt service with a smile. Lovely local art works on display too.

Holidaying out of season we sometimes fall victim to weary restaurants and rip offs. Not so with Culture. I'd rather forego 2 average meals to pay for this. The small tucked away restaurant is charming. Just two people there - the chef and the sommelier/waiter. Sensational bread and butter followed by a potato soup that is hard to describe but truly delicious. We had a fish dish that blew us away, my husband loving the clever pairing wines, followed by venison and a chocolate cake. We couldnt fault the food and will be back without a doubt. Well done!

Ginger bread latte was to die for and the cooked breakfasts are huge!! We will be back for some baked treats. staff were also kind!

Fantastic pub only had drinks on previous visits but today we had made a Sunday lunch time booking and we had a fantastic lunch and it’s a credit to Karen and her team at the venue.

Just had a 4 night stay at Chestnut Cottage, next door to the Bay Horse pub. The cottage had everything we needed. Very cosy and comfortable. The hosts Hayley and Sam were on hand if we needed anything. We ate in the Bay Horse and the food was exceptional. Great atmosphere and the staff friendly and attentive. Would definitely recommend both the cottage and the pub. We will return.

We discovered Prima Rosa by chance when cycling to Salhouse Broad. We popped in for a coffee and stayed for nearly 2 hours. My daughters were enchanted by all the sparkly things and the cakes were amazing. The cakes were so good that we went out of our way on our next ride to pick up supplies for the day.

I love this place for a coffee or a sweet treat. The decor is great and I also like the stuff they sell there such as jewellery, hats and tot bags.

So bloody happy I was able to get my hands on a DF V milkshake! I had an oreo milkshake that was oat based and it was DELICIOUS. With allergies you really struggle to get the good stuff anymore, so I was really chuffed with my milkshake. Friendly, quick service and delicious drink with all normal options available as well as smoothies and other drinks. Highly recommend when you visit Newquay! 🌊

Had the Roast Chicken Sunday Lunch and was impressed. A very generous serving for a regular portion, and a really decent price of £12.15 for my soft drink and lunch. A very tasty lunch with plenty of chicken and an extra jug of gravy and managed to finish it. The only point to mention would be that the roast potatoes weren't great. Would highly recommend.

We were delighted to know the restaurant was open for lunch and booked a table for us as we were staying at the hotel but invited a local friend to join us for lunch. Great welcome and enjoyed pre lunch drinks in the lovely and comfortable lounge. Lunch was great and there was plenty of food with lots of vegetables, all hot and fresh. The kitchen is open and you can see in from the restaurant which is reassuring. Excellent choice of wines and drinks. We were able to return to the lounge after lunch and continue enjoying more drinks. The team are well organised, polite, friendly and very helpful. The service could not have been better. A huge thank you to Sally, Joanna, Sophie and the rest of the team. Well done - can't wait to come back but don't want to wait another year!! Sal Jones

Reviews are subjective, of course, but when I looked at them I couldn’t believe I was about to write about the same place. I don’t know if they are under new management or have had a massive change in staff but we did not have the best experience. Our starters were ok but the roast beef and accompanying sides were not very good at all. Our beef was overcooked which made it very tough and also without seasoning. The potatoes were just about ok but the veg was not great at all. The servers are all very young girls who really didn’t seem to know what their job was and we felt that it could have been their first day doing this kind of work. Our waitress was the best of the bunch fortunately so we were served drinks promptly. There were very long gaps between courses, especially between the main and dessert which was about 20 minutes. It was almost like they were waiting for everyone in the restaurant to finish their mains before dessert was served. However, when it was, it wasn’t very good at all. I am sorry that this review isn’t better and I do realise that this is just my opinion.

Superb dinner for a group of 12 celebrating a significant birthday. Very talented chefs presenting brilliantly cooked food, excellent ingredients, innovative dishes with friendly front of house atmosphere. Would definitely recommend and worth travelling for - we will be back

Hübsch eingerichtet mit einer grandiosen Auswahl an Tee. Das Personal ist sehr freundlich und es ist eine kleine Wohlführoase im Trubel vom Camden Market. Aufwärmen kann man sich hier auch prima. Sehr zu empfehlen. Preis Leistung top. Kaffee gibt es übrigens auch.

We went here one Tuesday lunch time me my husband daughter and two grandchildren. We arrived and were shown into a conservatory part very nice. We were served with our drinks very quickly and were given the menus. The lady came and took.our order and a little while later the food arrived. Our meals were excellent couldn't fault them at all. All in all a lovely place and great staff. Will definitely return. Anne walker

Love, love, love Beans And Bagels, we had jacket potatoes for lunch, they were so good, Nikki (the owner) was her usual friendly amazing self.... if you want to go somewhere to eat or just a coffee, you couldn't be made to feel more welcome. We are booking for Afternoon Tea here soon, can't wait.... 5 stars are not enough 😊😊😊
