London has a pretty good restaurant scene, but I find once I am out of London there are few decent restaurants about. In the average small Spanish/Italian/French town there are several terrific restaurants, yet imost small English towns here eg in the home counties Chelmesford, Bedford, Northampton, Milton Keynes, Hemel Hempstead etc etc - are all pretty much culinery deserts - unless you count a scattering of decent ethnic restaurants.
Where are all the good Restaurants out of London
There are plenty of decent restaurants outside London. Do a search for Michelin Stars near you, there are more Michelin starred places outside London than inside.

There aren't many Michelin restaurants when you compare the number per million people, when compared with other European countries.

Look out for AA rosette restaurants, they are normally fairly good.

You have to hunt around the areas and try different places. There are some hidden gems around, often just excellent pubs that have taken their food up a notch, often due to getting themselves a decent chef, no AA rosettes or anything, but damn fine food.
Get out and about, I'm sure you'll find some great places, just as I have done.
