The best restaurants serving British food in England

Came here for a cocktail from google reviews, well! Were we surprised when we received the greatest hospitality and drink service from Valeria at the cocktail bar. She was so kind, even though we came just before service ends, she still spent time recommending us great cocktails, spots to visit, and gave us the BEST espresso we got in Manchester ! Cracking job from Valeria, i would visit just to be served from her again!

Great food, staff always friendly and nothing is too much trouble. Our go to location for family events. Make use of the rewards scheme and great offers

Fantastic pub. Went for lunch on Saturday with extended family for my daughter’s birthday and a catch up. Great atmosphere, the staff were amazing and the food was excellent. The staff went the extra mile & had the whole restaurant area singing Happy Birthday when the cake came out. Brilliant, didn’t want to leave!

This pub is a must on your list On arrival the beer garden was beautifully decorated with flowers and lots of lovely features, there are bowls of water for your pets around the tables also. The pub itself is traditional old style maintained to a high quality. The staff were very friendly and welcoming. The food was delicious we had a starter of baked camembert cheese with warm bread this was amazing and serves 2 people. We had different mains one had roast dinner beautifully presented and tasted delicious. I had the red Thai satay curry and noodles and it was so tasty and nutty Portions are big. The atmosphere was relaxed calm and warm. Family friendly and dog friendly ❤️ highly recommended

Came here on the recommendation of the owner of our apartment. Friendly staff and a decent menu. My girlfriend had the plaice and choose her vegetables from the carvery, so a great selection to choose from and I went for the rack of ribs, which was larger than expected. Lovely beer and cheery waitress made this so the more enjoyable and who can resist a sweet trolley?

Visited for Easter Sunday lunch. 3 course set menu with a few options for all courses. Fantastic food, the roast beef was exceptional along with the gravy. Service was fantastic. Very good value.

Terrible service from Julie the manager. She was extremely rude and unprofessional. Huffed and puffed for a long time when we asked for vegetarian sausages. This is our first time visiting the Stonebridge branch, and we will not be going back to any Toby Carvery after this experience. If you do decide you want to subject yourself to the misery that is Toby Carvery, you would be better off travelling a bit farther to the one in Binley or Hall Green.

Well, there is more than a reason why I have been going to eat at Quilligan's Cafe Bar almost every time I am in Blackpool. They have a very extensive Menu, therefore there is something for everyone's taste, and the quality is always spot on. Amongst the rest, I particularly like their Sunday dinners that are served in very generous portions, and I also love their breakfasts: last time I tried their American style pancakes, OMG! And there's is also another very important motif why I keep going back: the staff is so welcoming & friendly, and their service absolutely impeccable: 10/10.

Great Sunday lunch food excellent and swift service. Cosy atmosphere and staff friendly and helpful it's definitely worth a visit.

A friendly, welcoming place that is VERY dog friendly. I love the quirkiness of the tea room. We sat upstairs, which we thought was very charming, with a view out to the main road. The service was excellent and the food was exceptional. They cater well for vegan, veggies and Gluten free. We joined their loyalty scheme and will definitely be returning. It seems very popular, so I would recommend booking to avoid disappointment.

Simply the best fish and chips in the North East! We came here for the first time a couple of months ago and we came back again today (April 12th 2025). The food is fabulous. Fish and chips so nice and the service was 1st class. The young chap who served us was great. Helped with our requirements, down to sourcing a can of diet coke because I don’t like Pepsi with my rum. Will definitely come again but next time will bring more family members. Thank you

First time having Wimpys got the Wimpy Wednesday meal. Absolutely disgusting!! I don’t know what type of meat they use for their burgers, but it was foul.

Menu was varied and food was delicious with massive portions. We visited twice during our stay to Rothbury. Weather was glorious when we visited so we were also able to enjoy a drink in the beer garden which had lovely views of the Rothbury countryside. Staff were also very friendly. Would highly recommend!

Lovely fresh fish and chips served by friendly attentive staff. We travel quite some distance to come here for food. Good that they also have skate and plaice available, as well as crab salad. Closed in Mondays, which is a shame, but they need a day off! Car park is fairly small but there's free parking nearby. Disabled access through the takeaway door. Most tables are in the nice and light conservatory. Seating is basic but very comfy. Easy to accommodate a wheelchair. Also worth visiting the antiques centre across the road while you're there.

Sunday Roasts are amazing! Make sure you book in advance
