The best restaurants serving British food in South East

Rather off the beaten track but worth a visit if you're after a tasty sausage or bacon (or both) sandwich or baguette. Actually make that bacon, sausage AND egg which will set you up for the whole day. Takeaway only, cooked to order so be prepared to wait 5-10 minutes.

On 24/08/24 we had an 80th Birthday Party at our house for 40 people. We used Roostys bakery for the buffet. The food was excellent we couldn't fault anything. There was a good selection with delicious fillings in sandwiches and wraps. Savouries were tasty and cakes went down a treat. 100% would use them again. Thank you Roostys Norma

Fantastic Sunday lunch with my family. Beautifully served, lovely staff and great chef. Highly recommend

I absolutely love this little place. I come to Southampton every week (live in Gloucestershire) and always try to get a coffee at The Nest. It is quite simply the best cup of coffee ever! The staff are the loveliest people you can ever imagine too. Nothing is too much trouble, always kind, always smiling, always working too. They do a loyalty card too so every 10th cup is free. Extremely good prices too, for the best service and coffee = Just wonderful. Thank you.

Having visited on a whim with our 5yo, due to wet weather on our holiday, I cannot recommend highly enough. They are operating the Soft Play on a booking only basis but let my son go in for 45 minutes before the bookings arrived. The facilities look really clean and new and my son had a blast. My partner wanted a chicken baguette which they cooked from fresh. We couldn’t have asked for a warmer reception, such a welcoming and lovely atmosphere and the food is great, as well as affordable.

A really good cafe. Very nice staff. Very high-quality produce. Cooked from scratch and cooked really well. The price is very reasonable. It is much larger inside, so if it looks packed, don't walk away, go and have a look. It extends right back and they have a garden area. The building is cursed with what appears to be tinted glass and this makes the place look dark, but it is not. Once you get inside it is really bright and well presented. Well-styled decor. It is tucked away a bit, a couple of doors down from Corals, the bookmakers. I visited 9/10/23. Give it a go.

Been here few times. Reasonable price and tasty drinks l! Bubble waffle is amazing. Store also looks trendy!

Great London pie n mash but closed during the pandemic sadly there is is the cathedral pie House in Rochester but the pies are very dry ,no juice ,which it's meant to have

Really rude waitress slammed our plates in front of my children, rolled her eyes at us horrible service and burger was really soft Such a shame there has been new people taken over it.

Seafood was to die for so fresh highly recommended if you visit the Isle of Sheppey Kent friendly owner made me feel welcome

Visited the Stones pie hut for a bit of grub before football kicked off. Opted for the limited edition steak and cheddar pie they were running on the day with chips and gravy. A small detour through the bar, spinning in a squadron of Spitfires to provide valuable air support to the pie. When the pie and pig's ear went down the gregory peck, it was spot on. A good alternative to the Nelson Mandelas or Twin Carburettis on the firm that I would normally opt for. Spin em in son! Up the Stones!

The food was superb and 1st class polite service we couldn’t fault anything would highly recommend, a little hidden gem

The pub has had a refurb during lockdown and Donna has worked hard on improving and expanding the menu. I've eaten here twice this week and it has been excellent both times. There are spacious eating areas both inside the pub and outside (and no smoking in the outside garden eating as that is reserved for another area). On Thursday evening I had prawns with garlic and my partner had prawns with lime and chilli - both fab. We went with my son for Sunday lunch today and there was chicken, gammon and beef on offer as a Sunday roast which you could mix if you wanted to. Between us we had the full range and it was superb with a great selection of vegetables including cauliflower cheese. We all cleared our plates. Absolutely delicious. Then a good selection of desserts. This is a great choice if you want a day by the river and great food with a nice atmosphere.

This is amazing little Cafe but unfortunately we only get to go when we are on holiday 🥲 The owner is so friendly and nothing is too much trouble. And the food is extremely good and always fresh. We always have a chat and are made to feel most welcome. Love it ❤️

Worth visiting this coffee shop/cafe. It's clean and the food is freshly prepared and very reasonably priced. Tea and coffee great too. Give it a try !
