The best restaurants serving British food in England

Our favourite cafe in the world - amazing milkshakes, great, hearty food! Can't fault it - thanks Sue and Matt for keeping us so well fed this week. See you again soon.

A warm welcome shown by the land lady. Our drinks arrived quickly after ordering. It took us a while to decide what to choose as there was a great choice of food on the lunch time menu. We ordered five adult meals and a child’s meal. Everything arrived freshly cooked and piping hot. We all enjoyed our choices and the portion sizes were very generous. We decided to share desserts and they were delicious too. We would highly recommend this pub for a great family meal.

Had the egg royale and it was beautiful, lovely relaxing music, friendly people, service with a smile. Brilliant well done 👏 ✔️ 👍 😀

Literally the standard by which I judge all other coffee shops.

Brilliant coffee, cakes and bread.

Beautiful food..we had dinner and dessert, great drinks 🍸 . Fantastic service ,very friendly. We went twice while on our week's holiday. 10 plus stars. Absolutely would recommend a visit.

We’ve visited The Punch Bowl many times, as it’s just 10 minutes away from us, and it’s always been a nice pub in the past. Unfortunately, something has changed, and it’s not for the better. Upon arrival, we were met with stares from the locals, almost as if we were being judged on whether we were ‘worthy’ of being there. Despite having made a reservation, we were seated at a cramped table in the corner, right by the serving door, which was kicked open into my chair. The table had originally been set for three, but it was hard to see how it would’ve worked comfortably for any diner being so close to the door. There were other tables available, including one with just young children at it, so it felt unnecessary to place us where we were. The food was okay, but it no longer felt like good value for the price. Additionally, we were charged for a drink we didn’t order, though it was promptly removed when we pointed it out. All in all, this community pub no longer lives up to what it once was.

Fantastic food, large portion exquisitely cooked and presented. Go as often as we can , both Sunday any week day menus will not disappoint

Fantastic breakfast with my granddaughter birthday and service.

Big problem the locals were all standing around the bar so you could not get through to order a drink, even a polite excuse me had no effect so just pushed through. The barman wished he was somewhere else. Pity he did not value people who wanted to use his establishment,

Had a full afternoon tea here and it was absolutely fantastic! So many delicious homemade savouries, quiche, sausage roll, vol au vents as well as delicious sandwiches with the freshest bread. Gorgeous scones and lots of scrummy cakes as well. Lovely friendly staff too. This is a real treat - Highly recommended.

My friend and I visited Heather and Batch today and we had a lovely piece of cake and drink. The staff were genuinely lovely and really helpful.

Good local pub,good ales,nice atmosphere

Great room we had it was for 2 adults and my son it was like a small flat tbh lol.only issue why didn't score 5 star was the bed in my sons room was not a ordinary single bed it was a metal one with a thiner mattress.. my boy is 13 and 6ft tall in size mens clothes so it was not suitable really...other than that great..oh but please instead of the vine tomatoes at breakfast please start using tinned plumb..will be staying again...thank you

We stayed a couple of doors down from this bakery and visited for breakfast on our last day. All six of us agreed that it was superb. Quality ingredients, cooked to perfection with no grease at all and really reasonably priced too. You need to book as it’s get busy and it’s a small venue but we will definitely go back. The staff were also super helpful and the service was great.
