The best restaurants serving British food in England

Best Fish and Chips,/ Chicken in fact all food. Normally cooked to order, always hot and delicious, staff are helpful and polite, prices are keen. Definitely recommend to anyone, 5 stars

Delicious food. The place is quite unique, especially the decor. Service not the best, we only had one drinks menu between 6 that was given a while after the food menu. Staff didn’t tend to listen to what we said or pay much attention to the table. Overall would recommend as the food was very nice with lots of choice on the menu, we loved the map of the local produce they use.

Brilliant Sunday Lunch and very friendly helpful staff. Highly recommend. But book well in advance

Amazing owners and delicious food.. I have tried almost everything at this place. The amazing almond croissants and coffee is worth travelling to Southsea from London. The host was so amazing that they agreed to make a sugar free cake for us which turned out great :) Usually busy so would recommend booking in advance I recently visited Southsea Café and had a fantastic experience. this café offers a warm and welcoming atmosphere that’s perfect for relaxing. The décor is modern yet cosy, with plenty of seating, making it a great spot for any weather. The staff were incredibly friendly and attentive from the moment I walked in. They greeted me with a smile and were happy to offer recommendations from the menu. The service was prompt, even though the café was quite busy at the time. The menu itself is impressive, offering a great variety of options, from hearty breakfasts to light lunches and delicious homemade cakes.. The coffee was rich and smooth, clearly made with high-quality beans. One of the standout features of Southsea Café is its focus on fresh, their in house items, which really elevates the quality of the food. The portion sizes were generous, offering great value for money. The café’s relaxed vibe, combined with its delicious food and friendly staff, makes it an ideal spot for breakfast, brunch, or a casual coffee break. Whether you're a local or just visiting Southsea, I highly recommend stopping by Southsea Café for a memorable and satisfying dining experience. I’ll definitely be returning soon!

Great food, lovely staff, and a nice welcome from Alfie, the dog .

Tasty and hot Sunday roast to day It was delicious. Lots off peas as I had my husbands lol Mark was managing today Missed Lynn , The staff were very helpful and friendly. Thank you

Enjoyed fruit cake and pot of tea

Food absolutely gorgeous, staff lovely, great atmosphere

The Swan is a stunning country pub placed in a beautiful village. The food, drink, service, and atmosphere never fails to impress us, and neither does the amazing variety and value! It’s one of our favourites and our go-to place!

The best seafood linguine I have had in a very long time. Great service and value too.

Lovely stop off on the way to an appointment in Peterlee. Good food; friendly, helpful, efficient staff. We stayed over on the side car park in our campervan (phoned beforehand) and it was exceptionally quiet ( & flat for those self levellers !). Worth noting what a lovely village Tudhoe is too. Not somewhere I was aware of before this visit but a lovely spot.

Absolutely Outstanding Fantastic food. Very friendly, great staff. Should have Michelin Stars

Great staff, Mac n cheese was the best ever and the avocado toast was so amazing too. Hot chocolate was also fab. Basically it was all amazing. Quick service. Cakes looked delicious. Very happy and will be returning!!

Lovely place, great selection of beers on offer on cask, keg, and in the fridge, decent hotdogs and friendly staff. Can happily spend lots of time working your way through all they have available!

I don't really do reviews (or at least very rarely) but after a fabulous lunch today for 2 of us I wanted to say how much we enjoyed our beautifully cooked lunch in a lovely quality pub. Service was great and we will be back again as soon as we can.....thanks to all the staff and the chefs creations are amazzzzzing!!
