Planning a visit to a café, pub or restaurant

An independent venue can change its menu, kitchen hours and booking arrangements. Use the business website or contact number for current details. A directory opening time is not necessarily the time food is served.

Questions to ask before you choose

  • Are bookings needed, and when is the kitchen open?
  • Can the venue discuss your dietary requirements and allergens directly?
  • What accessibility, parking and family facilities are available?

Read our listing standards and report outdated details. Confirm important information with the business before booking or travelling.

Frequently Asked Questions

British Business Directory Guide & Verification FAQ

How are British businesses verified before being listed?

Every business listed on Britain Direct must satisfy strict verification criteria: valid UK Companies House registration or registered sole-trader status, verified physical premises in the United Kingdom, active phone and customer support, and evidence of authentic operations.

Does Britain Direct charge referral fees or booking commission?

Zero. Unlike lead aggregators that take 15% to 25% commissions or charge local trades for every phone lead, Britain Direct connects consumers and business owners directly. All phone numbers, emails, and physical addresses are listed freely for direct contact.

What types of businesses can join the national directory?

We accept all genuine British independent enterprises: local building trades, electricians, plumbers, hair and beauty salons, independent pubs, cafes and restaurants, independent high-street retailers, MOT garages and mechanics, and professional services.

How can I register my UK business on Britain Direct?

You can apply through our 'List Your Business' page. Submit your company registration, physical trading address, contact details, and proof of operations. Our desk verification team completes audits within 48 hours.
