the Sidings is a very pleasant pub with friendly Staff and Chef who is keen to satisfy your needs.the food is out of this world I had Fish and chips and its the best I ever had in a pub, Hotel or restaurant. Talk about Gordon Ramsay he's got nothing on this chef.
This place has faboulous meals not the cheapest but they are wonderful. The Trout was the inspiration that Tolkien needed for the Green Dragon pub in the Lord of the Rings Trilogy. For those unfarmilar with this, it is the hobbits hometown travern. There is a cosy family friendly enviorment. There is outdoor seating if you wanted to enjoy the Isis river. There is also a room with a massive fireplace and lots of rocking chairs and you can sit there and drink and enjoy the wonderful fire. I adore their goat cheese salad! It has a large goat cheese lightly fried with carmalized onions and rosemary. It is just to die for.
We went here with my parents to celebrate our 25th wedding anniversary and had a lovely meal. The people were very friendly , the food was delicious and tasty, there was no loud music so we could chat easily with each other (my dad is a bit deaf which sometimes gives problems).The menu has a good range of dishes. There also a happy hour when meals are cheaper and the dishes are also available as take away.They are being renovated at the moment but we did not have any problems because of that. Koos had Chinese Roast Duck and said it was delicious and I had Cantonese Sweet and Sour King Prawn ..... the best I have ever had !
The Bell, Book and Candle is a Gothic themed restaurant. Like an old church Disney style. But very cool, lively with great foodand good service. I craved that pasta again for days. It is also part of a restaurant chain Eerie Pub Co, so there are other locations, with different names throughout London and the UK. I had pesto penne pasta with mixed peppers, chicken and Brie. Oh and have a specialty drink - Seven Deadly Sins. The Sloth was truly decadent. Amaretto, Baileys Smirnoff Kahlua, Cream and Chocolate sauce. (yes, I asked to keep the menu and he let me).
The first ever truly vegetarian pub/restaurant that I visited. This was a real rarity in those days (1990), and there still aren't many 100% veggie pubs around. Bryn Tyrch's menu was a breath of fresh air and even today offers a different variety of vegetarian food than you'll find in many places (I notice from their recent menus that they now serve fish and a modicum of meat, but their menu remains largely vegetarian).I don't know if it's the same today but the outdoor eating area was strangely "across the road" from the pub (see pic and ignore naff 1990's hairstyles), making meal deliveries interesting at times. Tempura vegatables with spicy dipsBroccoli, Cauliflower & Stilton Nut Crumble
This section isnt so much about one restaurant but more about places in the UK that i think serve the best of typical british food - bacon sarnies, fry ups, chips, chinese (ok not british but popular) etc....-Florence cafe in Hendon, London - does the best bacon and egg bap you can imagine. the rolls are so far soft, the bacon tasty and the egg cooked to perfection-S Cafe - St Albans cafe - a mouth watering bacon roll - thick tasty bacon in a soft crusty roll with a friendly service.-Fishermans Wharf, Alvert street, Fish and chip shop, Stevenage old town - fantastic chips-Peking chinese takeaway in Luton - great chips and a great special show mein-Pre - St Albans - this pub/restaurant does a carvery, something like £4 in the week, £7 at weekends but is just5 fantastic -n the roast potatoes are out of this world
I booked a table at the Anatolian Flame on the website Toptable . The reason I chose it was my first choice, near work, refused to honour a food deal. So I booked this restaurant, very last minute, because it was near my hotel. Wow am I glad I did! Otherwise I would have never discovered this fantastic little eatery. Just look for reviews of this place on many websites. They get top marks 100% of the time for breakfast, lunch and dinner. I cannot recommend them enough.After a long and bad day I was greeted outside by large flames and a nice look exterior. Stepping inside I was warmly greeted by my waitress and made to feel welcome. My starter was hummus with fresh bread. What a delight! The best hummus I have ever had in any restaurant. It tasted great, was not covered in oil and was accompanied with yogurt and a mildly spicy sort of salsa. I ordered extra bread just to enjoy this more....
This restaurant reminded me why I never go to French Restaurants. Pretentious menus that don’t deliver, sky-high prices and strange service. I haven’t eaten in a French Restaurant in 10 years. I took a chance on a 50% off food offer and still felt like I had wasted my money. This restaurant is a massive, non-charismatic venue set above Spitalfields Market. They were already out of the starter I wanted, La soupe du pêcheur, and several others. I ordered my food from one waiter and another arrived later with my bread. I had a duck and pate salad starter that was ok. It is described on theoir menu as: Salade Perigourdine – Foie gras, Gesier and Smoked Magret Salad, Nuts and Xeres Dressing.The waiter then duly arrived and removed the bread off the table which I had paid for! I was speechless. My main course was a ribeye steak. My steak was ok. No seasoning. That would have been fine if they...
The food here is so impossibly delicious that you will want to lick your plate clean. The reason it is called ‘Arran on a Plate’ is due to the fact that the Master Chefs of Great Britain award their Chefs with plates highlighting their achievement. The restaurant is centred around Chef Richard Attkins. Richard began his training in Scotland and progressed into Michelin-starred establishments in France and the UK. Throughout his career he has specialised in sourcing Scottish season produce to create awesome meals. The menu changes and is varied, but its all fantastic. They even serve locally produced beers from the Arran Brewing Company. I also enjoyed THE best ever cheeses board in my life. They use lots of Arran ingredients and this really makes Arran on a Plate special.The restaurant itself has great views over Brodick Bay and has a trendy interior. They have a licensed bar open until...
Flamborough Head is worth a visit for the wonderful views of the high cliffs and the walk you can make there. The cliffs stand 400 feet high; the cliffs are home to one of the largest sites of nesting sea birds in England, including a rare colony of gannets. It really is a wonderful place for birdwatching; visitors to the headland include oystercatchers, gulls, eider ducks, and cormorants. As well as its distinctive white cliffs, there are coves, sea caves and stacks along the coastline. The name is thought to have come from a word meaning “the place of the flame” or from the Saxon “flaen” which means a dart – the shape of the headland.But Flamborough Head is also worth going there to go to the little Cliff End Cafe to have one of their “all day breakfasts”. It really is the best English breakfast we have ever had. OK a traditional English breakfast is not the healthiest meal if you eat...
