At number 37 was Birch in Southville.
Pretty chuffed to be in the list at all? Let alone at number 37. Insane but lovely. pic.twitter.com/d6xuwC4XPY

Votes from 150 industry experts from across the UK, including chefs, restaurateurs, food writers and critics, determine which restaurants make the top 100 list.
Each voter is given seven votes based on their best restaurant experiences from the last 12 months. Votes are listed in order of preference and must be for restaurants both in their ‘home’ region and outside it.
Once all votes are cast, they are added up by Restaurant magazine to create the list. In the event of a tied number of votes, the preference ‘weighting’ comes into play.
