The best restaurants serving Other cuisines food in South East

What a good find! Cafe with a difference! No prices, pay what you think it's worth. Great staff, friendly, courteous, efficient and...... good food.

From the outside, the Swan Inn might appear to be a simple village pub, but step inside, and you’re in for an extraordinary experience. Upon entering, we were immediately impressed by the open view of the professional kitchen, where chefs could be seen meticulously preparing dishes. It was clear right away that this was not just another gastro pub. We were warmly welcomed and seated, and our waiter, Joe, guided us through the menu with care and clarity. His thoughtful explanations made choosing our dishes an enjoyable experience. Before our starters arrived, we were treated to freshly baked bread served with two types of butter: honey and malt. The combination was sensational and set the tone for what was to come. For starters, I had the venison, which was incredibly tender – it melted with a single fork stroke. The flavours were perfectly balanced, allowing the venison to truly shine. A delightful surprise was the inclusion of two mini onion rings, lightly battered and utterly delicious. My wife opted for the burrata, complemented by a delicate candied orange peel. It was a brilliant pairing, and we’ve already decided to replicate it at home. For mains, I had the rib-eye steak, cooked to a flawless medium-rare. The quality was outstanding – a well-hung steak that true steak lovers will immediately recognize as exceptional. My wife chose the Thai curry, which was a masterclass in balance. Unlike many other curries, this one wasn’t overwhelmed by cream; instead, the fresh, fragrant ingredients took centre stage. If The Swan Inn were located in a more densely populated area, I have no doubt it would be booked out weeks in advance. It’s a hidden gem that delivers in every way. We loved every second and will absolutely be returning. Five stars, without a doubt.

Looking somewhere for lunch came across this tearooms . What a lovely find the staff were lovely and welcoming . I had a jacket potato with coronation chicken and salad it was delicious

We were cycling on a busy, sunny Saturday and came across this delightful cafe. The staff were warm and welcoming and offered us a secure place to park the bikes so that we could go inside to escape the sun (although there is also outside seating.) There is a good range of all day breakfast and lunch items, all of which are cooked fresh and our avocado, feta and egg on toast was perfect. Lovely coffee and cakes too!

Amazing, the food and drinks were delicious. The service was great, definitely my new favourite place. Small but beautiful what more could you ask for

Booked Afternoon Tea as a treat for my sister. Had to order sandwich fillings in advance from a really good selection. Perfect Afternoon Tea, had so much food had to have a doggy bag. Service was great, really friendly and checking if anything needed. Would definitely recommend and will definitely be back. Place was really busy for an afternoon during the week as well.

The Wee Bookshop and Cafe closed down permanently last year. It will reopen on 11th July 2022 as Cob Cottage Cafe. Also offering crafts. Hope this is helpful

Was looking for a nice lunch pre-theatre trip and The Pantry was excellent. Nice atmosphere, good food and nice service - Highly recommended.

This is my favourite cafe in Reading. They do fantastic large portions of cake and lovely coffee. It's brilliant having a high quality cafe that's also 100% suitable for Coeliacs.

6 months on and I’m compelled to reiterate just how much this place is a no-brainer, destination stop for anyone who appreciates the very best food, served with the very best engagement, in an environment that is relaxed, friendly and welcoming. I’ve extolled the virtues of this cafe to every visitor that’s stayed with me since my first discovery of the culinary magic that is Kostas, Gino & Co. No pun, but I’ve risked serious egg on my face, such are my oft deployed superlatives ! Yesterday the Veggie Breakfast was added to the long list of offerings that just don’t disappoint. Cooked perfectly, it was the freshest doorstep toast that simply sealed the deal - ‘it costs a bit more, but it adds so much’ is Kostas’s philosophy. ‘Worth it !’ was our clear sentiment & endorsement. And the Greek yoghurt - extraordinaire - which I’d wanged on about, was apparently even better on the tastebuds than even I had given it credit for. I’ve since discovered that this yogurt is imported from Greece and maddeningly, cannot be bought retail ! The usual cafe suspects of the High Street have their place but nothing can better a proposition that has true heart. With Eaten cafe, there’s nothing fancy, nothing overtly commercial. Just authentic, home made cooking, created & served with love, passion and a commitment to we the Diners. Quality @ value, every which way !

We arrived late so could only grab a quick drink but the drinks were great, prices ok and staff efficient and friendly. Parking can be tricky.
