The best restaurants serving British food in England

I visited here with my family for cream tea and it was lovely- fresh handmade scones and friendly staff - I would recommend a visit .

Went for Sunday lunch with friends before we move back to NZ. Excellent service and food. Would definitely be back if we were staying.

Absolutely brilliant night stay, all the staff from the owner to the chefs and bar staff so polite and courteous, food freshly cooked to order and first class (brilliant wood fired pizza oven) such a comfortable little bar area whilst waiting to go into restaurant. The room we had(twin bedroom due to a mix up with booking but not a problem) was comfortable with a great power shower and lovely views out over the countryside for the sunsets, definitely recommend this little gem of a place for anyone visiting the surrounding area ( great for Ripon race course) and we will definitely return. Keep up the good work Seamus and all your staff.

I haven't been to Dunwich for about 15 years. I remember there used to be a great tea room back then that my mother recommended! This must have long since gone! We had walked cross country from Southwold forgetting what a long walk it is We discovered dingle tea rooms at the end of the walk in a rural setting. It's a lovely setting with extensive barns and tables. Having frequented similar establishments in other parts of the country I thought we were in for a treat Nothing was wrong with the food it was just a little uninspiring. Very plain cakes and prawn sandwiches made from those tiny prawns you buy trozen. All nicely served by attentive waiting staff it just lacked that lush factor that you sometimes find in these sort of places. Maybe my expectations were too high.....

This has become our go to pub when travelling home to the Netherlands via Harwich. Just a short detour from the main road will bring you to this lovely spot. The garden is pretty and usually we eat outside. Weather was a bit nippy this time so we found a spot indoors. Very charming and quirky. The food arrived quickly and was piping hot. We've sampled most things on the menu over the last few years but I have to say my steak and ale pie was particularly good this time. Such a shame that we can never fit in a dessert.

Came on Sunday with my girlfriend for a roast, and it was amazing. One of the best Sunday lunch’s we’ve had; definitely will be returning. Staff were lovely and service was brilliant.

We sadly lost a family member and contacted the Black Horse to host the wake. From point of contact with Josh to the actual event, was dealt with professionally and with sympathy. On the day it went smoothly and we were welcomed warmly. We were taken care of the entire time and the buffet that was laid out for us was beyond expectations. Even with a late add on of numbers, which was despite the lateness not a problem. The supply of constant tea and coffee was welcomed by our guests. Cannot fault or thank the team enough for their attention and care of our family in a difficult time.

It’s a job to put into words this little gem. Beautifully prepared home made food, even the sandwiches are superb. We travel around and have lunches in many places, but always, say let’s go back to Ruby’s. Lovely friendly staff also.

Had a great walk to the pub along the Gloucester Way walk, and despite getting a bit lost and arriving later than anticipated, and the kitchen had just closed a few minutes before, they were more than happy to do us some food. We sat outside in their lovely garden and our food came promptly and was absolutely delicious. Great friendly service, and would recommend. Thank you so much!

never been before but will make a return, very easy to see why the court house were winners of the 4 in a bed show, got chatting to the very friendly owner and we were made to feel very welcome.

We’re here for the week, came to the Woodmans for dinner on Saturday night and ended up coming back again on Tuesday. Some of the best pub food we have had, the Cajun chicken burger is to die for, as is the steak and frites and the pork belly starter. Just absolutely delicious, fresh, generous portions and great service. Highly recommended.

Popped in for Tea and cake on a lovely day, usually visit about 8 times a year on nice days and weekdays only, Parking is Free, but only about 7 spaces connected to the Tea Room, don't be confused by the field parking next door which is £5 and is not affiliated with the Tea room, register your vehicle number when ordering food, toilets available for Customers, so a Tea and cake and 1 Hour stroll along the river, always good service here,we have seen some demanding members of the public getting mixed up and thinking its all one thing then getting it all wrong and throwing toys out of their prams when they are clearly wrong but can't see it, So you can park free for limited time, pay for food and drinks and use the garden seating (or inside) and use their toilet facilitys, can't say fairer than that and if you want a cheap lunch go to Tesco for a meal deal at £3.50

Last minute decision to have lunch and opted for The New Inn. Wonderful choice. The food was excellent and enjoyed the repartee with the lady serving and taking orders. Will definitely be back. Thank you

Best place in the City for Brunch & Deli ! Sourdough 10/10 - Unreal

Walked in at 14.56, told young girl order, she then said sorry we are not serving coffee now because we close in 4 minutes. If you are open until 15.00 then should be served takeaway hot drinks up until then. No sign to say they stop serving takeaway coffee before they close.
