The best restaurants serving British food in England

The strawberry milkshake made with real strawberries hit the spot🍓👍 and the toasted cheese and onion was the best I've tasted in a while 👍💯

Visited today with my family, could not have been a more enjoyable experience. Attentive, accommodating and friendly staff. Ensured the 4 of us could sit together once another group had finished - making it much easier to keep an eye on our two little boys. Offered an easy alternative of baked beans on toast (though neither of our boys like that - think they're the only kids that don't!), but felt assured could ask for a very slight amendment to the sandwich offering for my eldest (6), we ordered our youngest (4) jam on toast which came with a selection of 4 jams! Exceeded expectations all round, expecting a loaf sized piece of lemon drizzle, when lemon cake was offered, instead it was a three layer lemon cake that was delicious, everything was really reasonably priced and delicious. Would recommend without hesitation and I don't know for sure, but it sounds like they provide some level of takeaway too, if you're looking for picnic bits. Thank you

We visited today, Friday lunchtime, and it was full which speaks volumes for the reputation of the restaurant and college. We ordered the carvery and Holly was brilliant carving the meat and Cameron who was our waiter looked out for us. The food was lovely, we really enjoyed our desserts of sticky toffee pudding & chocolate brownie, which were bought to us in good time. Would definitely recommend and we'll be back! Well done to all the students & staff who support them!

We visited during a short break to the coast, the staff were very welcoming. The food and coffee was excellent. The only slight disappointment was there was only 1 cinnamon bun to take away so we had to share! Exceptional brunch

Staying in the area and dropped in for a meal. An absolute gem of a pub, friendly and welcoming with the most attentive staff. Delicious meals at reasonable prices for the quality of food offered. Thoroughly enjoyed our evening here, charming old style pub. We’ll certainly call in again Ken when we’re next over from France!

The Star kindly agreed to host mum’s wake on Friday. It couldn’t have gone better, communication before hand was efficient, drinks and buffet lunch for 50 served with efficiency. Very welcoming for children, family and friends. I was even contacted to be asked about mums favourite music so that they could put a background play list together. Thank you so much for accommodating us in your local friendly pub.

We took over this delightful tearoom to celebrate with my niece. It's a very pretty tearoom, which has been beautifully decorated. The afternoon tea was delicious with dainty sandwiches generously filled, lashings of tea and wonderful cakes. The poor owner had been let down and was preparing and serving everything herself. She did a brilliant job. There was plenty of food and we were even able to take sandwiches and cakes away with us. It was a very special afternoon.

Simply the best on the island. The Cream Teas are perfect. Choice of scone plus a choice of jam. Scone warmed up to the right temperature accompanied by a lovely pot of tea or a coffee. Staff very very accommodating and friendly. Dogs welcome too. What a great place

An outstanding alfresco experience! What a fabulous experience. I have been wanting to come to High Grange for ages and it certainly didn’t disappoint. We enjoyed the most amazing feast sourced from a 5 mile radius. What a beautiful setting too. We watched the sunset with fresh strawberry cocktails and enjoyed watching all of the food being prepared in Green Eggs. Friendly efficient staff. We’ll be back! Couldn’t recommend it more highly

The coffee stop absolutely went above and beyond for a 50th party that I arranged the food was exceptional and everyone off the guests said the same, more than enough food and amazing service I would rate Angela and George 100% if I could I honestly can not thank them enough for making the occasion so special.

We had a really lovely light lunch today at this wonderful bespoke tea room. Very warm and friendly service, very reasonably priced too and the iced latte was to die for! Best I’ve had this summer and I’ve had many. Highly recommend

We attended a wake held here! Utterly superb. Food and service perfect. Beautiful china tea and coffee seved the way it should be. A hidden gem not to be missed!

What a lovely tea room. Great atmosphere, charming staff and delicious cakes! The ice cream shakes are to die for. Will return and definitely recommend.

Ordered these cupcakes for my dad’s 80th birthday and they were perfect . Attention to detail is amazing and they taste incredible ! Thanks

Lovely panini, fresh and tasty, plus a great cup of tea and tasty fresh flapjack. Lovely service and great place on the Lymington Quay front.
