The best restaurants serving British food in England

Fantastic attentive service and food. I am surei was dining in a different place to the other reviews I have allergies and these were carefully considered and communicated. When the food arrived it was excellent and nicely presented. If you want fast food go to McDonald's otherwise enjoy taking a moment to breath. Thank you to the team for my lovely lunch.

We have been here and eaten probably six times this year and I absolutely rate it. The staff are always happy and helpful (especially the younger ones which I thought might be a bit surley)! The atmosphere was lovely and sometimes there is a big queue but hey that’s not the end of the world, if you want quick service go to McDonald’s (debatable I know!!) We last had an afternoon tea, which was lovely, the only thing I would suggest to put you above everyone else, is to provide a selection of sandwiches you can choose when ordering, I would have an afternoon tea again if I could have tuna or cheese! But I won’t as you don’t. The actual garden centre is way better than Rosebournes which was just a glorified gift shop with restaurant. The selection of plants and outdoor furniture etc is superb. Keep going Hillyers the Weyhill store has really benefited, although some of the Rosebourne staff you still have are a bit on the miserable side the newer staff are far more helpful, you are doing great!

I ordered the picture food which was label veal with a spicy pasta for £16.95! It was dreadful and the place was dead! There was a poor woman running around trying to do everything! The owners of this place are a disgrace and deluded if they can’t see what is going on in this place! Could be so much better!

Female employee who was working on the self scam had an absolutely disgusting attitude. Quite old, short hair and glasses. Spoke to the couple at the self checkout next to us in the rudest tone of voice all because they took something off the scale too soon. Then proceeded to come over to us huffing and puffing and rolling her eyes. Wouldn’t think she was getting paid to work there, I work in customer service myself and have dealt with some pretty frustrating customers but would never dare speak to anyone that way.

I went for my weekly shopping. I do not know what is happening to Sainsbury's! Bad quality food on the shelfs.,fruit & veg mouldy.Hardly anything on the shelfs..I brought asparagus the tips were all black & the smell was disgusting. Pears, peaches & Avocado's not ripening or if they do ripen they go mouldy. Always a smelly mouldy potato or onion when you buy a bag. loafs...seems that slices of bread are short in the packet. Fed up with the place...pure greed,everything being made smaller but more expensive. You buy toiletries...they only sell smaller bottles/ then u have to pay more! Sponges fall apart! And this thing about using your nectar card to get things cheaper is a load of Rubbish! Sainsbury's are robbing their customers more & more! They just don't care!

If you have a food allergy don't bother. Unhelpful staff who didn't try to find an alternative. Did not listen when ordering and got order wrong. Disappointed again.

Dont bother going, woman who served us so miserable, when I asked if we were in time.for breakfast, we got a sharp YES, atmosphere unwelcome, log burner throwing so much smoke off it's a health hazard, cheap sausages, cheap beans, frothy poached eggs, worst place we have ever been to, couldnt wait to leave. Advice to owner, close down asap.

This is part of Rudd's Hotel - but they try and keep the reviews separate - with good reason. Lulworth Cove is beautiful. The pretty courtyard to the hotel looked a great spot for lunch and the menu looked perfect. We arrived at 12:45 and went to the hotel bar to collect menus and order. We ordered drinks but were told they had just taken a big food order and were waiting for some deliveries and would take our order in 10 or 15 minutes. When we went back later we were told the owner/chef was expecting a delivery of wood and they wouldn't come until he paid them hence a further delay. "It's like Fawlty Towers here" said the girl behind the bar. At 1:15 they announced that they were now taking lunch orders. We ordered Calamari and chips for my daughter, moules mariniere and chips for my son, a crab sandwich on brown with halloumi fries for my wife and seafood paella for me. Total cost £64.50. We were told we would be called to the window of the kitchen when the food was ready. In the meantime I went to the loo - a trip I would only recommend in the most urgent of circumstances. They didn't have brown bread (my wife won't eat white). As he pushed to polystyrene boxes of food through the window to me the chef explained that they didn't have halloumi fries so he had put in some spring rolls instead. The calamari was inedible. As I said to the chef - they could have been used as weapons in martial arts they batter was so hard. We also failed to detect any squid, The seafood paella was also inedible. They had lined the polystyrene box with tin foil because it was swimming with liquid. It was also bland and just awful. I complained to the chef who offered to refund the money for the paella - £15. I would have argued and demanded a full refund - but we were on holiday and it doesn't take much to embarrass an 11 and 12 year old - so I let it go. The girl who took our order came and put the refund back to my card. I have just got back home and checked my account and instead of refunding me £15 they charged me another £15. You couldn't make it up.

Worst Fish & chips I have ever had, I am a man in my late 60s and a catholic so fish & chips gas been on the menu every Friday for over 60 years even the Army's fish & chips was better and that was RANK & Downey's has the poorest of quality Service will never go back

I was shopping at Newbury retail park. When I had finished I fancied a coffee so went into Starbucks. When I went to pay with cash I was told that they are cashless. I reluctantly paid with my card. I will not be returning. Costa on the same retail park is always busy and full of life. They are happy to take my cash.

Scruffy, dirty and run down. Not quite sure if Im describing the pub or the bar staff. Both. We thought we'd give this place a chance under new management. What a mistake, it's got worse! First round - served 4 drinks without a single word from the bar staff. Asked for a large wine but not possible. No explanation why not. 2nd round - needed the glasses back from the 1st round so that they could be re-used as they didn't have enough. There were only 4 other people in the place. It smelt. It was scruffy and run down. It was so bad it was funny. Wont be going back.

I was waiting to be served for nearly 20 mins. 4 people were served before me, and 3 of those came in after me. I wouldn't of minded so much, but it's like I wasn't there. I have used them quite a lot, but probably won't again.

Was not impressed with the food. I do not understand why a£1 upcharge for a modified tartar sauce and fries? I thought fish and chips are eaten with malt vinegar and not lemons!!!!

Mi esposo tomó un desayuno completo y dijo que no hacía mucho calor. Tuve un huevo y tocino bap y fue encantador. La taza de té estaba muy buena.

Smashed up cars in the car park, the patio area outside covered in filth, on entry into the hotel it resembles an abandoned building site, the room we were given was filthy, stank of sweat and stale tobacco, an inch of dust on the bed headboard and on the corner of the carpet, the hotel inhabited clearly by people with either substance or alcohol addictions, the view from the window was a roof with hundreds of cigarette stubs on it, (see stale tobacco smell comment further up), this is without a doubt the worse place we have ever had the misfortune to stay in and I personally don't know one person who would spend a night in this place. We stayed 10 minutes, I booked us in the Ibis 2 miles down the road. A severe complaint raised with booking.com who should be ashamed to have this hotel on their website. Needs closing down!!!!
