The best restaurants serving British food in England

Having a bad day. Arrived in cafe right on 5 o’clock. The lady at the counter, Kim, very kindly made me a cappuccino and told me not to rush drinking it. Such kindness makes a real difference. Thank you Kim. Plus the coffee was great.

Dean was a great barman and the Korev lager (locally brewed in St Austell) is delicious and refreshing. Great stuff all round!

My wife and I really enjoyed our food and we were served by a very friendly waitress. Meals arrived quickly and all the staff we met were very pleasant. Would have given full marks but for the "romantic lighting" that kicked in at about 7:15 pm which made seeing the food a bit tricky. Must remember to take my head torch next time.

We ordered our meals when they came they were dry and cold, when the waitress eventually came to ask if everything was OK we told her no she said she would see what she could do but never came back, very disappointed, it will be a long time before we go back.

I met a friend here on 6th Nov, we had a lovely meal and our waitress (Christina) was great and looked after us very well, she did everything with a smile and very polite. Food was good and tasty we will return.

We hadn't been for quite a while, so decided to try it again. Service...this varied, the waitress at the table we had was still learning as she was new, but she was happy, helpful and willing to learn, good qualities in a member of staff. However, the lady who we met at the door and led us to our table, certainly lacked these helpful cheerful qualities. Food.....the food was ok, not amazing, but definitely lacked quantity. The chicken breast we had was tiny and you could nearly count the quantity of chips on one hand. I'm not surprised the menu offers the option to double the quantity of chips at a cost, if you feel you need more to eat!!It's not a value for money place and as the previous reviewer said it's more like an expensive Weatherspoons.

We were visiting our daughter in Blackpool and this pub is not far from where she lives. She herself has eaten here before but I haven’t. We went on a Saturday arriving about half 3. They do specials each day of the week where certain dishes can be purchased cheaper than normal. On a Saturday you can order from the so called Super Specials where there’s around 8 different dishes to choose from. We ordered on 4 different occasions before we found something that they actually had which itself is a bit of a joke. It’s a Saturday, it’s Super Specials day but half the menu is not available? We ended up ordering something else which wasn’t on special offer so felt aggrieved. There are lots of TVs everywhere showing sports but there’s no where for you to sit in peace. There’s also a Euro Parking system in place where you have to remember to register your vehicle on screen. Why? The fine is £100 if you forget, and no one who served me asked if I’d done this. The food when it came was nothing spectacular. My onion rings and sweet potato fries were soggy although my chicken was okay. My daughter had a Vodka and Red Bull which is charged as 2 separate items rather than as a drink and cost £6 which is ridiculous for what it is. Overall it was a very average visit and one we will not be repeating.

We popped in for a usual pint and catch up with regulars on Saturday. The car park reguster is still positioned in its usual place right by the area people wait to be seated for food . This means that it can not be easily seen by people and is difficult to get to it would be better positioned either in the main entrance hall way area or somewhere that it can be seen and accessed without having to ask people to move so as you can use it. The bar was so busy, lots of confusion and the Landlady had to take over bar service, with people waiting for over 10 minutes to be served some (like us) were overlooked Some of the tables in the bar area were not cleared with dirty plates and glasses and some had not been wiped down. Since the refurbishment more tables have been added to the bar area so it is cramped and no way accessible for a disabled person. Whilst I appreciate you can never predict how many staff you need each day it was clear to see on the day we visited it was chaos and not the usual service we have enjoyed. Sadly, after waiting and waiting to be served or even acknowledged at the bar with a ' I'll be with you in a moment ' we left and went else where. What a shame as the refurbishment looks nice.

One of the worst meals we’ve had here for a while, it went down hill a few years ago then pulled itself back up but unfortunately it’s nearly at rock bottom again. Birthday meal for 3 with 2 of us having starters. Holloumi strips really more like over cooked batter strips, they were very well (burnt) over cooked all the halloumi had nearly evaporated. Sharer Nachos normally they are hot these were ice cold and not the best. MAINS cold onion rings on the “super” specials hunters chicken, the chicken was chewy but hot and had hardly any sauce on (luckily they have bbq sauce as a sauce) And one fish and chips, the fish was thin and the batter was soft the chips on the fish n chips were ok. Won’t be coming back for a long while again!!

Out of all the lounges this is bottom tier, after expectations set by others. Such a disappointment, dirty tables all over, stained seats, messy food area. No labels on food, yes you can guess but surely have some labels. Nothing matched up, curry no rice, bolognaise no pasta, cheese no crackers. The only lounge where Prosecco is extra, that I’ve been in anyway. Ran out of white wine after half an hour of being in there. We sat with dirty plates and half drank glasses on our table for the duration. No atmosphere at all not even a bit of music leaving the tables speaking very quietly, we weren’t even talking to each other as you could easily hear other people conversations it just felt very awkward. We left with time to spare because it was absolutely rubbish.

What a fantastic place to visit for food we booked up lunchtime on Thursday for that night and was so welcoming on the phone when booked due to we knew there was a quiz night later that night. On arrival I believe the waitress who answered the phone asked if I was 6pm booking and she showed us to our table. We ordered our food and drink at the bar and its a very clean and beautiful establishment and when was sitting there talking I see the chef put my order in to the pizza oven located at the side of the bar. The Pizza was value for money and fresh which is not really seen much now adays and my Girlfriend had the lamb and honestly everything was large portion and value for money. the Staff so friendly and welcoming and attentive and nothing was a problem. They also have a play area I believe at side of location for children in summertime. Well done and keep up the great work!!

This place is AMAZING!!! Beautiful pie and just what we wanted. The atmosphere is very welcoming, and the staff are lovely. We were recommended to come here by a friend who said it was the best place for pie and they couldn't have been more correct. We loved it here, and we will definitely come again.

Stayed overnight at this restaurant with rooms. Room was spacious and comfortable and easy to get to as on ground level. A member of staff, Luke helped with our cases. The bar was nice, although drinks were quite pricey. The dinner was plentiful and tasty and we had a quiet table in The Snug area. It was a perfect end to a perfect trip to the UK.

Sometimes you find a place which exceeds your expectations you will always remember the evening and our experience at The Golden Fleece was just that. You have to visit here. We came here with friends for a casual dinner with friends and our meal was brilliant. 2 of our party had the “Featherblade” steak special which blew them away. The team were excellent, our dinner brilliant and we all agree that we are looking forward to returning. Special thanks to Chloe, our waitress and Fabio the chef. Absolutely recommended! We can’t wait to return.
