A customer at the Scarbrough Hotel, Bishopgate Street, said: "The Scarbrough Hotel remains a firm favourite for monthly lunch gatherings. There's a good range of draught ales and stout, plus a varied menu from starters to full main courses and desserts (-never had room for one after a main course!). Staff are friendly and obliging, and the place is kept clean and tidy at all times. Food and bar service is always outstanding."

A customer at the Brunswick, North Street, said: "We visited for a Sunday Roast with friends based on a recommendation and we were not disappointed. The pub is small and rustic nothing pretentious to see here just good service, food and drinks. We ordered two beef and two chicken roast with sides of cheesy creamed leeks and pigs in blankets. All plates were cleared the produce was clearly good quality and the cooking excellent."
