The best restaurants serving British food in England

Dinner superb nice intimate table provided Ben and Joel top quality 👌👌

meal was actually quite nice to be fair, however the plates were dirty and it looked like the cutlery hadn't been polished correctly, still some food marks on it which had clearly been missed by potwash.

The tea rooms have a lovely and very elegant atmosphere and the food and tea compliments that very well. All the servers were very kind and attentive and made sure we had everything we needed. Even though, the afternoon tea was a little pricy for us, I would definitely recommend the tea rooms to anyone who wants to experience a chic afternoon tea with a high variety of delicious food and tea. My mum and I enjoyed it very much!

Had a fabulous meal this evening. Two of us had the vegan wellington, it was amazing, the others had the steak and ale pie, and chicken and leek pie. all very good. Staff lovely and very friendly

These guys accommodated 9 of us for lunch with 4 kids and a dog. Superb attentive service and delicious food. Healthy too 😀 Thankyou. Highly recommend

Went for an impromptu early supper. The staff were great as was the food. Loved the baked figs starter and then the pork belly and beef bourguignonne. Hubby had the Cadbury egg cheesecake! Apparently not too sweet. They were very helpful re my gluten and dairy intolerance. My only downside would be that the ambience in the restaurant area could be improved.

This was our 1st visit to Birdies Bistro I was exited to see there was a window seat in the main dinning area, at this point I was unaware of the extensive seating area outside. We were seated then our dog spotted Canadian goose and proceeded to start whining like a “ sealion” like he does, (only when seeing geese, ducks or anything that looks like a cat) this was after ordering food By this time coffee and tea had arrived. I asked if we could be reseated as I didn’t want to spoil other guests dining experience This was no trouble whatsoever and the waitress kindly obliged to our request carrying our coffee and tea to another table She directed us to a covered area outside with panelling that went to the floor, brilliant, geese no longer in eye contact of said dog Not long after the food arrived Katsu chicken burger and Chicken, bacon and Brie burger The food was excellent, however due to the quantity of chicken (hearty amount) in the katsu burger it could have done with more katsu sauce, ( minor detail) The food was hot and the Chicken, Brie and bacon burger was superbly messy to eat, as it should ( don’t worry plenty of napkins available) So, overall, if your in the Leylant surrounding area and fancy some excellent food or drinks, then this is the place for you Friendly staff, great food and good premises Thank you for my wonderful lunch and be very accommodating to our needs. Our dog had a relaxing time too with no geese to interrupt his snooze.

Amazing food and amazing service

We went on Friday night for food and live music. The food was gorgeous, the staff were brilliant and the live music was amazing. Such a fantastic atmosphere.

Celebrating my wife's birthday at the best seafood restaurant on the south coast, once again we were not disappointed, the pub was exceptionally busy, which is not unusual but we were shown to our reserved table which is always advisable as the pub/ restaurant is always busy, and enjoyed the most fabulous Sea Bass (wife) and Red Gurnard for myself. Staff always very attentive and polite, the Poole Arms is a definite must for seafood lovers wether you live locally or just visiting Poole and I promise you will not be disappointed, thanks to everyone for a very enjoyable evening.

Always love it here. Top service and quality food and drink.

What an amazing place had sausage mash a nd onion gravy well what can I say just like my mum used to make will return to see what other traditional food they can do 😃😃

Great New Forest pub, ideally situated for walks or cycling in the forest. Ploughman's lunch only but what a choice, great quality and service.

Loved this place - greeted warmly and had a lovely chat with server and fellow local customer. Food cooked to order, we got a medium cod and mi I cod and 1 cups. More than enough for the two of us. The chips were among the best we e had - the batter was delicious and the cod so yummy. Ate at an outside table - lovely experience.
