The best classic British foods.

Let’s hear it for the Sunday classic, a roast dinner with all the trimmings! The UK has a love affair with this supremely satisfying dish, and we can see why. An intoxicating yet plate-challenging combo of roasted meat, potatoes, and Yorkshire pudding is the perfect way to end the weekend.
Whilst some prefer their roasts homemade, others feel just as at home in the comfort of a pub. British restaurants cook up a whole variety of dishes, but they know exactly how to get a Sunday roast just right. The Bird’s Nest Pub, in London, is not only a great gastropub with live music, but a must-try roast dinner - so there’s no need to sing for your supper, here! Visit from Sunday to Thursday to enjoy 2 for 1 discounts with tastecard.

You just can’t beat a full English. With its button-busting combination of eggs, bacon, sausages, baked beans, tomatoes, mushrooms, and fried bread, it’s a breakfast fit for kings! There are few ways better to start your morning, so let us tell you where you can find some of the best fry-ups! 

We’ve all rushed to the supermarket early in the morning to try and beat the busy queues and hectic rushing between aisles, but sometimes the appetising scent of the cafe is just too tempting. We’re talking about Morrisons’ Cafe, of course - the prime spot to enjoy 25% off your full English breakfast. 

If you’re looking for something a little more high-end, however, we’re big fans of Bocca Lounge. This glamorous London restaurant is just as Instagrammable as it is tasty.

When thinking about classic British foods, we have to return to base. We said it at the start, and we’ll say it again: fish and chips! From the coast to countryside pubs, fish and chips continues to be a popular choice. Doused in salt and vinegar and served with mushy peas and tartar sauce, this combination delivers an ocean of flavour. 

If you’re looking to catch the best fish and chips for less with tastecard’s British restaurant deals, we’d recommend visiting the Mayfair Chippy. This contemporary spot is about as chic as a fish and chip shop can get. But interiors aside, their food won’t disappoint either. Neither will our discounts, for that matter!  You can enjoy 2 for 1 deals here from Monday to Thursday, and on Fridays and Saturday daytimes. 

Britain is home to a broad range of cuisines, each bursting with flavour, history, and heritage. Some days call for Indian restaurants, whilst others are Italian restaurant kind of days. Other times, however, there is just no beating the homely warmth of a pub and tucking into classic British food.
