British food has a bad reputation in Europe. This is not entirely justified. Traditional home-cooked British food is as good as European cooking. A good example is the traditional British Sunday lunch, consisting of roast beef, roast potatoes and pudding. There is also a large variety of excellent British cheeses. British people eat a lot of meat but they rarely eat raw ham. Although not many people in Britain eat rice as a first course, they sometimes eat it as a second course. Wine is expensive so not many people drink it with their meals. Mineral water is not very common either. One of the most popular drink with meals in Britain is tea.

The meal for which Britain is most famous is the traditional breakfast, which usually consists of cornflakes with milk, toast with marmalade or honey and tea. Some people also eat sausages, eggs and bacon with their breakfast.

For lunch they usually have soup, fruit juice, cold meat and salad, or fish, or roast meat and vegetables, and then goes an apple tart, or hot milk pudding, cold fruit salad or ice-cream.

From four to six there's a very light meal called afternoon tea. It consists of a cup of tea and a cake. This became a kind of ritual. At this time 'everything stops for tea' in England. The whole nation is at ease drinking tea. Dinner is much like lunch and is in many families the last meal of the day. For supper they have tea or coffee with biscuits. Almost every meal finishes with tea with or without milk, cheese and butter.

The English people like fish and chips. Everybody seems to have a fish and a chip supper at home at least once a week. There are fish and chip shops in the side streets of every English town.

If you want to eat out in a restaurant in Britain, there is an enormous variety of both British and foreign restaurants to choose from.
