prawn cocktail, garlic mushrooms, soup, pate, and fruit salad (usually melon) are good ones.

deserts- cheescake, gateau, fudge cake, ice-cream, fruit salad (again) profiterolls always go down well.

Starter?  In the winter, no doubt whatsoever, a plate of good really home made soup - provided it passes the test "Is the last spoonful still hot?".  In the summer something light, prawn cocktail, dressed egg, a salad concoction or what have you.

Desert?  Whatever takes your fancy.  If you have already eaten well then all that is needed is something light - BUT NOT ice cream, please.

I am not English (French) but I have lived in England for a few years now and I am always interested in food.

Well it depends on the Restaurant and its Chef obviously. Since you ask for popular choices, as a French person I always find it odd that the English can have a nice soup for starters which cuts the appetite, or cheese after coffee, but never mind, this is England, and as the saying goes, "in Rome, do as the Romans do".
