The best restaurants serving British food in England

Visited today for lunch. Beautiful welcome and atmosphere. We had an issue with a family member being unwell. The staff couldn't do enough for us. Bagged one meal up for us, and asked if I wanted my meal keeping warm. When I was ready to eat it, they had prepared me a whole new meal. Such lovely, empathetic staff. It's actually made very emotional as to how understanding the staff were. The food was epic. Out of this world. We will definitely be visiting again. Never, ever have I had such good service from such lovely people. You made its a very special visit, given the personal circumstances. Thank you. X

Nice experience all round Great friendly staff

We were having a few days away and decided to come to this pub primarily because it is dog friendly. We were warmly greeted and offered a table. We were served at our table which was nice more a restaurant feel. We choose the fish and chips and can honestly say it was delicious, the nicest fish I have ever had! All freshly cooked and reasonably priced. The staff were very friendly and the service was great. Big thank you to you all.

Scallops, Stake and Cheese board. Very nice and very filling. Bonus for us zero alcohol drinkers, Guinness Zero. Great night, Great food with Great friends.

Just had to wait 40 minutes for breakfast and missed our train. I was told that the delay was because they were very busy, which clearly wasn’t true as the place wasn’t full. Our order had obviously got forgotten even though they were overstaffed. I counted 4 people serving about 15 customers. The staff were happily talking about their holidays and dating, and taking cigarette breaks, rather than checking the orders had been processed. The chef even came out for a coffee break and gossip - while we had been waiting 30 mins. In fairness they did apologise profusely and took some items off the bill. The breakfast was ok when it came but certainly not worth the wait.

Stopped here from motorway as it’s so close. Marvellous find ! Sunday roast beef lunch was delicious, served piping hot, obviously all home made. The staff were great especially the man who welcomed us even though we’d not booked. Cold beer, cosy surroundings, good food and at £15 an absolute bargain for a tasty roast. Plenty of parking. We’ll definitely be back.

This is just the best restaurant/pub in Sussex!! Been coming here for 10 years and never disappoints. We’ve holidayed in camber since I was 12 (I’m now slightly older😂) been coming to this pub everytime we stay at camber sands holiday park since I’ve been old enough. Food is perfect (it’s not cheap though worth EVERY penny) great staff, service worth coming here to stay for the food alone. Highly, highly recommend

I had the best warmed cheese scones with the soup of day - really delicious and piping hot broccoli and stilton soup - wonderful combination! It was pretty busy on a Sunday but the service was good and it was a friendly atmosphere. I'd definitely go back, I hear that the cakes are really good!

Absolutely amazing pub with the loveliest staff, incredible food and the best beer. We’ve been to the Craven Arms lots of times before but today really deserves a special mention. We turned up with no reservation on a fully booked Sunday and they managed to juggle things to squeeze us in. Despite us only having an hour, we didn’t feel rushed at all and the food and drinks came very promptly so we could enjoy at our leisure. Best pie and chips and a pint ever.

Lovely food , good atmosphere with welcoming staff. Always have at least 1 visit any time I go to White Haven

Our second visit. Didn’t match up to the first. We were seated at a claustrophobic table next to a radiator with no windows. Ordered Sunday lunch that came with 3 boiled potatoes in their skin. No roast potatoes or mash. Plenty of meat but somehow it didn’t have much flavour. Also the waitress got our very straightforward drinks order wrong. It was expensive and disappointing.

Great meal had here on Saturday 😁 food was delicious 😋 We felt a little rushed though 🫤 our main course came when we were still eating our first course and was asked about dessert very quickly after finishing our mains🥴

Great pub friendly staff good food dog friendly can highly recommend

A great menu choice, with both set menu and a la carte, we went a la carte. Halibut, scallop, veal, pork, cheese and gooseberry brandy snap, all were beautifully presented, delicious and perfect portions. We chose a couple of glasses of recommended wines and they were excellent choices. Staff were lovely. All in all a fantastic evening.

always pop in for a vegan pastry before work, find it difficult to find vegan croissants in town but grateful to have this lovely cafe serve them! always lovely staff, warm atmosphere and very welcoming
