Strawberries

We all have to eat and today this can be a very diverse and exciting experience in England. Our dining out scene has changed beyond all recognition in recent years with thousands of restaurants, pubs, gastropubs and hotels catering more and more for every pocket, taste and need. Also watch out for many restaurants offering fixed priced menus. These often run at lunchtimes and can help you get even better value for your money.

London is viewed as a culinary capital with its many award winning restaurants but we are also seeing British cities and towns like Birmingham, Manchester and Leeds  making their mark and attracting many more visitors for their exciting culinary offerings. 

England is also known for some great food traditions including afternoon tea, fish and chips and, of course, the great English breakfast. There are many different versions of the English breakfast that make it all the more fun as you travel around the country.
