The best restaurants serving Other cuisines food in East of England

Simply asked for a table for two, was ignored by 5 members of staff as we walked in and waited. One waiter who came out the kitchen kindly acknowledged us and said he’d check with the manager behind the bar if they had availability.. the manager simply looked up and sarcastically said ‘no walk-ins’ after we were standing in his view for more than 5 minutes. Awful attitude and customer service, will not return.

Really quick service with amazing quality highky recommend

Very picturesque, popped in with my partner and had a couple of Guinness's

Food looks good but is far too expensive. Service is usually good from the regular staff but can be hit & miss with newer staff members. However, recently there have been incidences of cash only or card only service and a couple of occasions where the dishwasher is broken and coffee is only available in takeaway cups. My objection to this is that the takeaway cups are larger than the china cups and most servers want to top up the drink with extra water - weakening the brew! Finally, the atmosphere in the cafe is ruined by the incessant noise from the coffee and ice-making equipment. This is bad enough for the customers but must be very stressful for the staff, who have to spend all day there. I have no complaint with the staff as the regular girls are working hard in difficult conditions.

Called in here after a nice walk in Rochford. It was all amazing.. top quality food and service, they were very dog friendly in the bar too. Will come back and would definitely recommend.

The staff are absolutely amazing, food wise the Japanese styled karaage chicken was absolutely beautiful. I would highly recommend.

Dined here with friends, hadn’t been for 2 years, will be a long time before I return. Meal & drink for 4 was over £250!!, frankly not worth it. The Camembert was ok, but not great, very basic. I had their special Waggu burger, but for £19, was very disappointed. Never been served such a small burger, it got lost in the bun, doubt it weighed 4 oz 🙈. It had a bit of cheese on, came with a view skinny fries & a little pot of dip, again very basic, not much effort or skill in serving this. 2 of our party had the sea bass, and this looked slightly overdone as the fish was stuck solid to the skin in places. Dessert was disappointing too. Overall, had a lovely evening thanks to the company, but the meal was minimal, over priced and not very exciting.

Not good, I'm afraid. My roast chicken was dry. I had to send it back. The crackling on the pork didn't crackle - it was soggy. The batter on the squid was not good. Not quite the meal I wanted forbmy birthday celebrations. A very disappointing main meal although the puddings were good. Staff attentive and helpful. Think I'll try somewhere else next time

Shame that the female manager is not very nice to her customers , think she needs a lesson in customer service. Lots of people have stopped going there because of her attitude.

Luke was our server for a bottomless brunch and he was absolutely brilliant! He made sure we were served every time our drinks run out! He was attentive to each of us and made the experience our best bottomless ever. We will definitely be back

We meet up with friends at Red Lion pub restaurant every other month, the food is great, beer is a bit on the pricy side, but I dont mind that when the place is good. Its in a good location, my only criticism is Saturday we were there for a few hours, we were going to get another drink when a female staff came and put a reserved sign on the table, she never said anything to us, we then felt that we had to leave as we didn't know what time the table was needed for. We hadn't planned on leaving then until the reserved sign was put on the table.

We took the kids for Sunday lunch, the food was great, the service was great, an all round great day. The service really did stand out and it was a pleasure to eat and spend time there. We'll always pop in for food and drinks from now onwards

Great hotel to stay. Close to city center easy access. Breakfast and lunch is great. All stuff very kind and great customers service. Specifically Maria she is one of the best. Thanks

Having read some of reviews little disappointed but what a surprise sat 29 March 2025 son in law and partner took us out for lunch lovely very good service lovely food efficient and friendly staff would deffo recommend it very good

Service is lovely, pleasant, professional baristas. The non-stop T-Swizzle is grating though, not gonna lie. Unfortunately, it’s one of the few half-decent cafés in Luton for Wi-Fi and matcha, so I suppose I’ll endure. Lastly, management might consider installing plug sockets at the benches that haven’t got any installed. (There are empty slots on the benches where they should have be installed) the wall with the bench gets crowded.
