The best restaurants serving Other european-cuisines food in South East

Sitting in New Bradwell this is a lovely pub on the Grand Union Canal. A small car park at the rear, a huge beer garden, two bar areas and a reasonable menu. I look forward to going back.

Bloody lovely. We had wings to start. Two had burgers. One had ribs and I had a steak. Two portions of brownie. They made custards which isn't on the menu. I had a cheesecake. Also made us Cocktails that weren't on the menu. Served by Sam and Bella. Sam was chatty but not intrusive. Both fitted in with our sense of humour. Both affable and welcoming. We will visit again. Thank you

This was an off-the-cuff chance eat. A very warm evening, and the restaurant had opened the patio doors allowing a gentle breeze in. The view across the fairway matched the food - very good. Food well cooked and presented at a reasonable price.

Beautiful long driveway leading up to an impressive looking place ,you can not fault the food or the service it was lovely

Left Hayling Island 8 years ago but returned today for a walk down memory lane and it lead me to Mike's Kitchen. Wonderful people, perfect food and beautiful crockery at a very reasonable price. I forgot to mention the location is great and the choice of seating areas are outstanding.

We came in a group of friends for an afternoon tea. Upon booking we were not given the choice of booking either a sweet or savoury afternoon tea. A call was made (but on a Sunday evening at 7pm) the night before to ask our preference. We missed the call and no message was left to call back. When coming in we were told only sweet had been made, despite both being printed on the menu making it seem as if we had a choice. Food was average and scones were overcooked. Service was very abrupt, when we stated that the water for the tea was lukewarm the waitress decided to argue back! Most unusual! Service should be optional without being made to feel awkward for an average experience. It is a shame because the decoration and building is nice. Let down by poor management.

Best whole meal bread - fresh and lovely flavour. The also make the best jam doughnuts on the planet / with a trip just for a doughnut. Been buying bread n cakes n having coffe n brunch there for past 40 years n just as good now as it was 40 yrs ago.

Elegimos este restaurante porque aparecía como dog friendly y queriamos probar el tradicional Sunday Roast.Primera decepción: nos dicen que en el restaurante no, que tiene que ser en la terraza de un bonito jardín. Como hace buen día no nos importa (aunque no nos gusta comer en terrazas).El servicio es lento, pero no tenemos prisa. Por fin llegan los primeros platos y con ellos empiezan a merodear las avispas. Uno de los comensales es alérgico a sus picaduras. Lo comentamos. Ninguna solución. A duras penas acabamos los primeros (que no son como para tirar cohetes) y comentamos si podemos trasladarnos al interior. Nos dicen que si, pero que tenemos que dejar a la perrita fuera a pesar de que la sala está prácticamente vacía. Les decimos que para nada y no nos dan ninguna solución. Comentamos que eso no es ser un restaurante dog friendly, pero como si oigo llover.Decidimos irnos y todo el detalle y la disculpa que tienes con nosotros es presentarnos una cuenta de aproximadamente la mitad del importe de los menús de 3 platos que habíamos pedido.Una vergüenza y una decepción enorme.

Even though breakfast and dinner was part of our plan for an extended business stay, after dinning a few times and trying numerous items, we chose to go into town and pay to dine elsewhere. We are very budget consequence, to not eat a free meal and purchase food elsewhere says a lot about how disappointed we were with the food. The quality of ingredients was poor and there was a holistic lack of flavor. At times the food at dinner was presented well, picture perfect; however, the meat would be over cooked, the food was poorly seasoned, the soups were literally the worst soups I have ever eaten in my life. That says a lot as I do not think I have ever had a soup I did not like before trying the soups here. Breakfast consisted of traditional English breakfast using poor quality ingredients, runny yogurt, fruit from tins and lots of processed breads and cheap baked items. They did have a few small containers of nuts that you could use as a topping for the yogurt or your cereal. Service was slow, our tea/coffee would come out after we had finished our meal. The one strong positive thing that I can write is that they genuinely seemed to care if people had allergies to any ingredients on their menu. The staff tried but they were mostly young and poorly trained.

First impressions from the outside are really off putting. The front carpark is partially blocked by an old estate car and the back carpark almost full of scrap delapidated vehicles of all types. There are fridge and washing machine and kegs scattered about the grounds as well. This may have something to do with storm damage that’s mentioned but it should be cleared away completely not left to walk past on way to restaurant. Why the owners would want this as a reflection of their business beggars belief. Inside it’s supposed to be in the process of renovation but from the front entrance onwards the decor is very tatty and once again sets a poor impresssion. The food is ok but as someone else has mentioned the green veg is a mishmash of sorts and left a pool of water at bottom of plate. It’s needs bringing up to date fast and the carpark cleared to become a venue that you would like to return to.

We had read previous reviews about service so we’re prepared.. we were sat straight down and given menus, quite a few bookings came at the same time. Food order was taken quickly and drinks brought. The waitress was very busy but dealt with it well although there was a young waiter passing the floor but no interaction with the customers not actually sure what he was doing. We didn’t get offered the dessert menu but had enjoyed our meal so didn’t need one. Excellent food and good portion size.

My sister and I had a beautiful high tea at the Brasserie. Sandwiches and cakes were amazing served with excellent coffee, my sister said her pot of tea was good too. The staff were extremely friendly and efficient. Nice surroundings, we will certainly go again when my sister comes to stay.

Lovely setting and great food. Very reasonably priced..the steam train passed by several times staff were great and very attentive.

Very good food, nice ambience, lovely setting, excellent staff. We could not fault it. Happily recommend

If you want a quick bite to eat this is a pretty decent place. The staff are quick to take your order, and in my experience even in the busy period your food is usually done within 5-10 minutes. The price isn't ridiculous, and the burgers are good. My only disappointment was the chips, I found them to be a bit overcooked but other than that, I was happy with my experience.
