The best restaurants serving British food in England

We’re staying in a nearby holiday park for the weekend. We drive out and found this place. I have to say we were really happy with the food and service. We had no booking however they had space for us and our 2 children. The waiter Danny asked the children their names and every time he spoke to them he called them by name which I think was a really nice touch. I had the liver and bacon and the wife had the chicken and wild mushrooms. Both cooked to perfection. Would definitely recommend.

Lovely Inn. Very welcoming, great food, warming fires. What is not to like!

Went at night had some really nice tapas dishes with a nice red wine, service was good bill was reasonable really enjoyed our 1st visit, we will definitely call again.

Great beer, smashing lively atmosphere.

Donovan’s Bar is a lovely spot located at the back of Browns Hotel. It’s an ideal place to meet and have a drink after work. Named after the famous 1960s photographer Terence Donovan, the bar features beautiful artwork that adds to its charm. The food is good, but the overall appeal lies in the bar’s unique setting and ambiance.

Our first visit & what a lovely, warm & friendly welcome 😬 A cosy local with heated & covered courtyard area. We all had delicious crusty-filled rolls, chips & pork pie 😋😋 Rest of the menu & theme nights look great too, just wish we lived closer & it was our local !! Betsy, Bert & Toby ( the dogs) loved the treats too. Thanks for your hospitality, nothing was too much trouble & see you again soon.

Mice running around under your feet. Manger on drugs sells them under the counter. Not nice one but

Great place to meet friends and to have a quick bite!

Friendly staff and excellent food

Really nice Sunday lunch, lamb was delicious. Desserts are highly recommended especially the brownie stack, very good quality food and lots of it. Service was very friendly and accommodating. I would definitely recommend this place. Thank you for a great experience.

We ate at The Castle Inn with my daughter who is coeliac. We always check in advance that places understand that cross contamination is the danger - cooking in a kitchen where there has been gluten on a surface or in a shared container. For coeliacs for example, you cannot cook chips in fat that has had any glutened batter in it. You have to have fresh fat in a cleaned fryer. We have discovered that many high end restaurants like The Ivy don't manage to offer this so it was so heartening that The Castle was meticulous about her needs. When the menu didn't offer an option she could pick, they found something different, making her cheesy mashed potato from scratch. It was delicious and we are so grateful for their kindness. We shall definitely eat here again when we're in the area.

Nice and relaxed setting if you time it right, sampled the most amazing creation of Banoffee Splat, absolutely delicious and great coffee too. Added bonus that it is dog friendly.

Just been for afternoon tea as a treat for my friends birthday. The food was lovely & freshly made, the staff made us both welcome, nothing was too much trouble. Must make a return visit soon, can recommend. Thank you ladies.*****

Rice and spice night is incredible! Butter chicken curry and a sharing platter that tasted so good we could have eaten it all over again. Such an unassuming place, but the menu shouldn't be missed.

Fantastic food, brilliant service. The food is always amazing, the portions are just right and the owners and staff are just excellent
