The best restaurants serving British food in England

Cafe has to be clean and hygienic for me to enjoy a meal out. This was such a place. I felt comfortable sitting in this cafe on my own (not always the case) and I thought the food was excellent at good prices.

I enjoyed a lovely tasty lunch with my cousin. The menu online had drawn me, and the menu on offer was even better. My cousin loved her fish pie, and my pork belly with a chilli and honey glaze was scrumptious. The lady who attended to us - the proprietor, I presume - was charming and friendly. I expect to be eating here again in the not too distant.

Tuvimos un té de la tarde encantador - deliciosos dulces y grandes selecciones de tés. Tim, nuestro servidor era fantástico y atento e hizo toda la experiencia aún mejor!

We always come here when in town. Great cafe, lovely staff and food. The dogs love the sausages. Great views and lovely place.

After a long hot day me and my other half decided we’d stop off at rays ice cream on our way home for a treat bear in mind we’ve never been so thought why not heard a lot of people say good things.waited In the queue for 5 minutes just to be turned away .not is this just poor customer service but as a well known ice cream parlour you’ve now lost customers and money

Superb food and service in a pleasant location. Our food was fresh and quickly prepared, very good quality and priced fairly. We hadn't visited for a number of years but will be sure to come over more often! Thank you so much for a lovely lunch. :)

This is a small friendly hotel in a very nice location. We stayed just one night and will definitely return. The room was well appointed and our dinner and breakfast were exceptional. It’s rare to find food cooked with this level of creativity and skill in the UK. The sun was shining and we walked from the hotel onto the Monsal Trail. It’s a perfect base from which to explore the best of the Peak District. The Riverside team were fantastic and work very hard to make things perfect. Thank you for looking after us so well.

I was there for coffee today I recommend delicious coffee and sweetness nice service a lot of space ❤❤☕☕

Popped in with my wife for breakfast and was really pleased with our choice of destination. The service was really friendly and attentive, and the food was fantastic - it was hard to make a selection from the large menu, but I was thoroughly pleased with my choice - I took an omelette, and it was massive, tasty, and great value for money. I had my eye on other dishes coming out from the kitchen. and everything looked amazing, so we will definitely be returning to try something else from the menu. Thanks for a lovely meal, we will be back!

Excellent food, great service every time we have visited. Best cafe around (to our knowledge) Friendly staff, attention to detail with individual orders..

Excellent food ,all the staff are pleasant ,Sarah makes you feel comfortable, nice atmosphere and they also do discounted meals for the over 60,s

I visit Hartlepool from London several times a year and always make a beeline for this lovely cafe. The staff are friendly and the coffee is delicious - they know how to make a decent espresso which isn't a given in many cafes. I recommend the gorgeous vegan chocolate sponge pudding - ask them to heat it up. Goes nicely with coffee. Thankyou to all the staff.

A tad expensive for my liking. A kids sandwich is one slice of bread & one rasher of bacon for nearly £5. Not that I'm being cheap but one slice of bread.

Lovely food excellent service
