The best restaurants serving British food in England

Very quaint old Riverside pub,booked Sunday lunch, arrived at 14.00 very full glad we booked , very welcoming staff. Ordered 2 mixed meat and 2 beef Sunday lunch. Quickly served very hot and big portions. No rol. For dessert. Would recomend, well done to the. team

Visited many times before and always given a tip but I will not be visiting Brew Brothers again! Whilst ordering at the counter, I found the young lady to be obnoxious and not friendly. She then asked me to select an option on the card machine regarding a tip, I selected "no thank you" I noticed a jar for staff tips and thought, if I change my mind, I can leave something in there. She then bought our coffees and cutlery to our table, we thought our coffees were going to land in our lap and she literally dropped our cutlery down on the table. I was out for lunch with a friend and we were both shocked with her behaviour. I said to my friend "I think it's because we didn't give a tip when we ordered and she agreed. We eat our lunch and drank our coffees. I then returned to the counter to pay for two cans of drink that I got from the fridge. She was so rude, everything was too much trouble, she didn't want to give me any glasses to drink from, then I asked for ice, which I have been offered before, and she seemed to have a hissy fit. Then when I went to pay she said "oh yes, you don't leave a tip" and pressed the " no thank you" option on the card machine. I have visited Brew Brothers many times before with two of my friends on separate occassions for monthly catch ups and my husband and I go in with our dogs regularly. All I hear is support your local businesses, sorry no, not if this is how you are going to be treated. There are plenty of eating places in Kendal, some as good as Brew Brothers, some better value for money. Unfortunately, they have lost a loyal customer who will take there custom to someone who appreciates customers.

I never give 5 stars but today I am fab Sunday roast best we have had I think ever *****

Googled for a place to get breakfast, this place did not disappoint.. I hade a pancake stack and my OH had a bubble and squeak breakfast..Very tasty and hot..service is very good..We will definitely come here again when we do a theatre break in future..thanks

Good was just ok. Staff are friendly

Portions were small. I ordered the celeriac and the portion was tiny for a main meal. I got a slice of celeriac, *one* mushroom and some kale... that was it. Compared to others at the table who had big roasts. I left hungry.

Highly recommended. One of the best restaurants in Torbay, and more affordable than some of similar standard. Once again we had an excellent meal, very tasty and well presented. Service was perfect: slick, professional and friendly. It's a lovely restaurant, cosy and welcoming, fresh and clean. Vittorio and Tatjana were very helpful in advising on, and amending, dishes for me - gluten free but also with other intolerances.

Superb roast dinner. We turned up on spec, and got a table in the bar. Staff were very friendly and the pub itself is lovely. Plenty of parking and a decent play area at the rear.

We have visited the stocks many times over the past 30 years but this was the worst meal we can remember. The gammon was thin, scrappy and too salty, the chips over cooked. We were asked if we wanted both egg and pineapple and then charged £1 extra for the pineapple, which we weren't told about when placing the order. At £18.95 it was not value for money. We ordered lemon & ginger cheesecake, which was more like mousse on a biscuit base, not the consistency of cheesecake. This desert was £7.95 so you would expect better. We told the waitress,who did offer an alternative, but this was declined. She said “I’ll let them know.” . An adjustment to the bill would have been more appropriate. There is a lot of competition in this sector and regrettably the Stocks prices have edged up too much and now sit at the more expensive end of pub food options. In summary a disappointing and overpriced lunch.

I've visited the Notty House over the last few years and I've always enjoyed a pie from here.

Came mostly because Sherlock. The staff is extremely nice and helpful. I loved the atmosphere and the food. I can only recommend this amazing place and I will be back as soon as possible.

We have been fairly frequently to this pub and generally happy with food we have been served and price paid. I’m sorry to say that the significant price increases are not justified and although the food was ok, the portions are smaller and the price high. I’m sure it’s very difficult to run a pub atm but sadly there are equally good around for much less than paid today. We all need to watch the pennies and mine won’t be spent here

Made very welcome, lovely food. Great relaxed atmosphere. Very enjoyable.

Great beer, on cask and keg. Well worth a trip.

Great pub great people and great atmosphere, what more could you want
