The best restaurants serving British food in England

We had dinner here. The menu is a bit unusual, with not too many homely choices, but we both had shoulder of lamb, which turned out to be a stew. Very pleasant and nicely presented it was too. Staff were (I think) somewhat inexperienced but very keen to do the right thing and there were no mistakes. It must be said that the dining room is rather cramped and the walls are painted dark red, which makes the whole room rather claustrophobic. We took coffee after the meal in the sitting room adjacent. A little biscotti or even a petit four with the coffee would have been a nice touch but was not offered. We enjoyed the visit. £100 two courses for two people, plus bottle of wine and two coffees. That includes a 10% service charge added to the bill. Don'tthey know it's 2023? Just increase the prices by 10% and omit the service charge -- it just rubs people up the wrong way. (Some people will then add their voluntary tip on top anyway.)

Fairly average fish and chip shop - I’ve had worse but I’ve definitely had better. The chips weren’t very well cooked quite long enough being a bit soggy with no crispness, and the cod had quite a thick batter that was a bit stodgy on the inside; both were quite greasy. The fish itself tasted ok, but completely disintegrated as soon as a knife and fork touched it. The fish was already cooked when I came into the shop but I was assured it was recently cooked (they would say that wouldn’t they?) Cod, small chips and mushy peas cost £10.50. The portion sizes were generous. The food was placed in a plastic bag rather than a paper one which is never a good sign, and would have made it go even soggier if I didn’t remove it as soon as I got to the car. Ok if you’re local and don’t want too drive far but I certainly wouldn’t go out of my way to get food from here when there are several better options such as Skippers not far away.

Lovely desserts. Best part is it's home made and fresh. 100% recommend

Absolutely fabulous coffee with a beautiful view. Will be back for lunch next time 😀. We didn't have time to shop but looked like there was so much fresh produce to enjoy in the shop and butchers. Very friendly staff 👏

Gran servicio me encanta la pequeña sensación hogareña de la zona de la cafetería los precios son muy razonables el menú es muy tradicional volveremos a visitar pronto gracias.

Lovely little tea room - visited with my mum who had the ‘daily special’ of vegan haggis, mozarella and tomato wrap and I had a glamorgan cheese & leek sausage butty. Both meals along with our warm drinks served in cozy tea cups were really good quality. The staff are also really nice and friendly. Dogs welcome too!

Disappointed by the manager. He was rude and does not know how to treat customers. Used to go there a lot but the atmosphere isn't what it used to be. There are much friendly places in Shifnal to have a drink.

Food delicious we both had breakfast. Quality sausage and bacon , black pudding , tomato, mushrooms, beans , fried eggs

Since leaving London I have missed the small independent bakeries and this one is the answer to my prayers. Great selection of food from hot food and pasties to sweet treats and cakes and priced unbelievably well 😋

We’ve just returned from an incredible evening at the March Bank hotel. I booked a table for a family of five - including 2 fussy teenagers! Every plate went back clean. The service, the food and the whole experience were amazing. Seriously cannot fault it. Located in a beautifully decorated house, with great original art works it was a truly great meal hosted by a lovely family. Can’t wait to come back.

Had a lovely evening yesterday at The Square. Busy with lots of atmosphere, papas was delicious. My favourite dishes were Burrata beautifully presented and Whitebait. Loved the way you could order a couple of dishes then more as you wanted. Ample wines and spirits. It would be nice to see an alcohol free wine on the menu. Staff friendly and helpful. Highly recommend.

Does the boss ever smile? Food was okay but the boss rushing around with a face like thunder. Doesn't matter how busy you are but doesn't take much to smile

Came here for a family lunch and just stayed for a drink as the place is really grubby! Needs a good clean! I would hate to look inside the kitchen. Definitely would not recommend. The marquee outside looked nice.

An excellent pub - easily the best in town. Great atmosphere, beer and jukebox. Staff friendly and very helpful. We stayed in the camping pods as a base for a couple of cycle rides around the area and they were just right -- excelent shower block too. Thanks and will definitely return

Visited to meet up with friends who fish Cafe was always clean with good plain food! People who ran it were very pleasant and greeted people warmly! This time no greeting! Different people ! Cafe mucky! Tables grubby and not cleaned between customers! Staff disinterested to say the least! Absolutely no customer service! No idea how to deal with the public! Cups had dirty rims and old stains of dried milk down the sides! Cutlery marked! Food was the last straw! Tasteless, poorly cooked and just slammed down on the table by a miserable girl with attitude! Will NEVER return!
