Had a delivery from yourselves tonight and was a bit disappointed with it. The pizza and garlic bread were not very warm, in fact they were a bit cold. The chicken wings on the other hand were very warm???

Beautiful restaurant with absolutely delicious food! Had the goats cheese and pistachio salad to start, and the T bone steak as our main. The staff were amazing with the owner taking a keen interest in our experience. Highly recommend.

Genuinely had a lovely evening here with my family. The venue is modern, clean, full of ambience and they even have a lovely singer / pianist play while you enjoy your meal. The manager is lovely and clearly invested in making sure that everybody’s experience is as good as it can possibly be. The staff are amazing 🥲 very attentive - you were never waiting to get their attention. Rare these days!! The food quality was to a very high standard and not one of our dishes had an issue. I would recommend that everyone comes here! So so so good 😊 5 🌟

We came Friday 13th September for my sons graduation dinner. There was a big group of us, but the restaurant wasn't busy. Before our meal the manager spilt a glass of coke over my 2yr old granddaughter, who cried out of shock with the drink and ice over her. Not once did he say sorry, just said, I got it on my trousers too. Granddaughter was taken to the toilets to get cleaned. The drink also went all over me. Then while I started drinking my bitter lemon, I noticed bits in the glass. Took them out without issue, but then there was another one. I took it out and noticed it was a little black fly. With that we looked at the bottle and the drink was 3months out of date. My daughter took drink, and fly to the manager. They sent someone to a shop to buy a bottle of said drink. Which I had to wait quite a while for. There, was a mix up with the steaks, ending with one of our party not having a main meal, as he couldn't trust the steak would be cooked to his preference. We only got offered one drink, and that was when we arrived, we was there for 2-3 hrs. We was so disgusted with the service (lack of customer service) especially from the manager. We didn't have pudding, we just wanted to go. When we got the bill, I had to pay for my drink. There was also no reduction on the bill to do with the spillage etc. Now if that was me, I would be absolutely mortified and so apologetic. Will not be coming back.

There are some very good restaurants in Bishops Stortford however, there is only one great restaurant, Wood Grill. The food is amazing and not over priced like in other restaurants in the town and surrounding areas. The staff and service are excellent. This is the best restaurant in the area by a long long way.

Only found out this had opened in Stortford by chance. We visit the Stansted branch quite often so was a nice surprise to find the chain locally. We visited on a Sunday night of the Easter bank holiday so a lovely quiet meal which suited our purpose! Staff were friendly and efficient. Food was delicious. Nice selection without being overwhelming. Portion size was just right too. Can't really comment on the atmosphere as was so quiet, but understand they have live music. Restaurant had a nice cosy feel. Will definitely be visiting again.

I came here with my family a few weeks ago and enjoyed the food so much, I convinced my work colleagues to come here for a works night out. If you like steak, then this is a great place to come, because it's cooked to perfection. Some feedback from some of my colleagues is the only reason I can't give 5 stars. One thing that cropped up from several of my colleagues is that many drinks were not available. No Prosecco, no drambuie (which is on the drinks list), no fruit ciders, were all comments that my colleagues made. They were quite surprised that they would run out of drinks on a Friday night. Also another thing that was mentioned, was that a cocktail menu would be a good idea. But I suppose when you go to a restaurant and the thing you are complaining about is "drinks" then it must mean the food is good

We were staying at the Holiday Inn Stanstead, before a very early morning flight the following day. Had 2 small children with us. Ordered pizzas via Deliveroo. After many phone calls with the restaurant, the pizzas arrived two and a half hours later. The children were crying they were so hungry, had to buy them food at the Holiday Inn!! Sent many emails to Deliveroo requesting a refund as well as emailing Dough and Co, Dough & Co, have not even been bothered to respond. Shocking service. I won’t be doing that again!

We came to Butcher & Grill this evening after a wonderful experience on Mother’s Day. Bank holiday Sunday I would have expected it to be busy or at least more than 3 tables of guests (one being us) The service was terrible, we kept having to chase the waiting staff to bring us our drinks, take more drinks orders, they seemed more interested in hanging around in the back bar. The children’s burger and my burger was burnt and tough, pretty much borderline edible. Though those in the party who had steaks said they were good. The sauces for the steaks were wrong. We had to chase up the staff to order desserts and coffees, even then they missed 2 coffees on the table which we had to prompt for. We waited 20-25 minutes for our desserts to come, 2 of which were ice cream for the children. When the deserts finally arrived, the cheese biscuits were soggy and stale. We had to ask for the bill twice and then finally got it. Overall a pretty poor experience as the service and some of the food isn’t up to scratch. Ashame really as the decor is so nice.

We went for dinner last week with a friend and our daughter after having been twice before. The service is always super friendly and polite. The food is fantastic and cooked to perfection. Just this one time my husband T bone was overdone instead of medium rare, but he mentioned it and in no time he got a different steak cooked as we like it. We weren't treated differently for sending it back, which sometimes makes you feel nervous as no one wants to make the chef feel bad but as we were paying over £30 for a stake we felt it was fair. It was the last T bone so we were offered an alternative that was delicious. We can't recommend this place enough, and we will definitely come back!

My recent visit to Butcher and Grill in Bishops Stortford was simply phenomenal. From the moment we walked in, the warm and inviting ambiance made us feel right at home. But it was the exceptional service and attention to detail that made this experience truly unforgettable. To start, we ordered the scallops which were cooked to perfection, and the flavors were expertly balanced. For our mains, we ordered the fillet steak and ribeye steak, and they were simply divine. Each cut was cooked to perfection and had a unique flavor profile that we absolutely loved. The creamy mash and tenderstem broccoli sides were the perfect accompaniment to our steaks, but the true standout were the Parmesan truffle fries, which were an absolute game-changer. To cap off the meal, we had the pleasure of celebrating my partner's birthday, and the staff went above and beyond to make it special. From the decorated table with balloons and a card to the birthday song sung by the singer that night, everything was perfect. Overall, the entire experience at Butcher and Grill was impeccable. The food was outstanding, the service was exceptional, and the attention to detail was second to none. I highly recommend this restaurant for anyone looking for a top-notch steakhouse experience.

Let me start of with the food presentation,it was very poor. They brought out the steaks on their own and when we finished the steaks they brought out the sides minutes later. Very poor. my family and i were invited and using the other room and it was so cold it was like I was in Iceland even though we were promised heating would be on, we could also smell the gas which is not great Definitely won't go there again and especially for how much it was.

Went there for my parent’s anniversary. They brought our steaks first and the rest of the sides later after l was done eating my steak and the rest of the guests had to eat their meals cold as they were waiting for their sides . Food presentation was horrendous, my mother even tried to explain to the managers how this wasn’t good service, Mandy did try to help but the other manager gave us a silly excuse of how their kitchen was small, but then our problem was that we had booked this event a month in advance. We were told the garden room would have heating but on the day we were told that some heaters weren’t working leaving the guests to freeze.

I went for an anniversary dinner there on 01/04/23 and I have to say I’m was deeply disappointed by the care taken with their food and their lacklustre hosting. Upon sitting down I was struck upon an unpleasant smell that seemed to be gas and was told nothing could be done about this. The room we were in was not adequately heated and as a result half of the guests were almost freezing and coats had to be worn to help stay warm which as you can imagine, ruins the dining experience and tints the occasion with an informal feel. The food service was abysmal especially with the main, my steak was served by itself on a plate without a sense of pride taken into the presentation, no decoration or anything. My side of fries came almost 5 mins after my steak came, by which point my steak had gone stone cold. The hosts of the anniversary even had to individually apologise to every guest about the poor quality of food. After politely complaining we were told that the reason for slow service was the kitchen size and kitchen staff, but then why would they have taken on such an event without the proper personnel? Definitely wouldn’t recommend and be aware if you are thinking of planning an event for more than about 5 people. Below is a photo of my cold steak that I added my hot fries and sauce to… imagine the steak on the plate without anything, no sauce and no fries. £40 for that is appalling, the fries weren’t even fried to golden brown.

Contrary to what most people are saying, I like the pizza - when it gets delivered. Don't use delivery services with these guys, unless you like having your money stolen and your pizza undelivered. Doesn't help that their customer service is awful. After constantly being told they would pay me back and constantly not being payed back, I gave up trying. I'm pretty sure that's a crime. Hope your business shuts down!

Ooops - not great and not a hint of humility how wrong they got it on this occasion …After a 20 minute wait to get an order in for a drink we tracked someone down who helped us out - then having ordered they completely forgot the starters and arrived with the steaks which to be fair looked good but we weren’t ready for them 🙄 - eventually when we got to the steaks the wrong sides arrived ( which later appeared on the bill) but by then we weren’t expecting much else to go right and just enjoyed the food and chat. To be fair the quality of the starter was very good, the steaks were fine. The manager who was doing her rounds asking if guests were enjoying themselves was oblivious to any order issues and seemed content that so long as the food was good that should do it - missing the point that the dining experience matters. Not convinced we will give them a second chance but having said that the choice in Stortford is not that great.

Had a really lovely meal. Tasty starters and steaks cooked as requested, the sides were delicious and generous potions. Too full for deserts! Service was attentive but not overbearing. Definitely recommend and we will return. Thank you.

I always liked your pizzas but a 4 hour delivery malarkey tonight just pushed me to the edge…. I get it is Xmas times but I run my own pub and fundamentally we do not take bookings we cannot fully service. We do not say we can serve you in 75 minutes and 4 hours later still no pizza… If you cannot service you shouldn’t take the booking. Historically I was very happy with both quality of food and pizza but tonight You may have just lost a customer. I very rarely leave negative reviews, I focus on the positives and support businesses (considering I am a fellow caterer). I also messaged your head office, as I believe management let this store down tonight. Revenue is vital these days, I get it, but not at this cost…

Had a delivery from them 29/11/22 it wasn’t at the time the app said it was going to be at my house which was Uber eats. Called the restaurant twice to track it down, they said it was doing drops before my house which is fine. Anyway my order came the pizza was cold. The dough was undercooked, the pepperoni was clearly cheap packet pepperoni thrown on it. It was quite honestly the worst pizza I have ever eaten. I wish I chose either Franca manca in bishops stortford or petrucci pizza in bishops stortford even wood grill in stansted pizza is miles better. I do not suggest this place to eat at all. It was horrendous! The thing learnt definitely order from where you know and you know it’s going to get taste good! Overpriced for basic pizza

Great meal - worth a visit! We were looking for something close to the Bishop Stratford service area for a decent meal and this didn’t disappoint. Picked from Google maps. Excellent pizzas which were clearly freshly prepared and cooked. Would definitely visit again if nearby (flying from Stansted).

We have just visited and we have never had such a good pizza! We went for my sons 16th birthday and he loved every detail. The food was sublime and the staff were very attentive and cordial. Perfect end to a perfect evening! Thank you

My family and I had a lovely meal at Dough&Co. We are vegetarians and vegans and they were very accommodating about changing menu items to fit our needs. The food is delicious and there are some delightful cocktails (I had the Hugo Spritz). The restaurant is in the centre of town on a little plaza and is decorated in a light and airy style. Best of all was our server who was very friendly and attentive. All in all a really good experience.

We had a yummy meal in here last night. We had the buffalo mozzarella salad and the dough triangles with garlic butter to start which was a great combination. For main course I had the pepperoni pizza and my partner had the cheesy penne pasta. Both were delicious. Usually I find pizza stodgy but the Dough & Co pizzas are really light and crispy. Service was excellent as well from the guy who served us. If you want pizza this is definitely the best place to go in Stortford and a great, central location too.

It’s really nice here - maybe doesn’t have the profile of other pizza places in BS? The building looks great, nice pizzas, nice doughnuts. Well worth supporting this one!

Such a mixed bag of a night… 8 of us booked a table at 630pm on a Saturday night. staff where friendly and quickly got us seated and our drinks bought over, unfortunately this is where the speedy service ended.. Half an hour wait for 4 shared starters of bruschetta, garlic bread and dough triangles Over at least an hours wait for 8 pizzas A further half an hour for 4 desserts Terrible service, it was bought to the managers attention who in fairness apologised and gave us 25% off and free desserts. It would appear that priority is given to the steady stream of delivery drivers?!? The only saving grace for the night is that the food was good! I would possibly go again, just not over a weekend!!

A LOT of people are reviewing the wrong establishment here. If you think you dined here in the evening - you did not. You went to Il Vino's RESTAURANT on St Andrew's Street towards Hertford North Station. This is a café that closes at 5pmon Fore Street in the town centre Been here numerous times, nice spot for lunch after a stroll round Folly Island and Hartham Common Park, they do excellent medium size pizzas (amongst many other things), and the prices are reasonable. Good service, piping hot food, tables outside for the vapers and smokers, and a room at the back for additional space.

The evening was okay. Service was good although felt a bit unfriendly, perhaps they were busy. Our starters and desserts were nice. We had Melanzane Alla Parmigiana and Funghi Fritti to start and for desserts we had the Pear Cheesecake and a Chocolate Fondant with ice cream. We had x 2 prawn pasta mains that were very bland - one of which was Tagliolini al nero di seppia con gamberi (black pasta with prawns and a cherry tomato sauce) and the other which was the Tagliatelle con gameri spinaci (prawn and spinach pasta) and believe me it was just that - no seasoning, nothing. Two very ronseal mains with nothing extra - I was expecting more. We were quite disappointed after hearing such great reviews so not sure I'd visit again and if I did I wouldn't have a pasta dish.

We have been here before and thought it was great. However, this time we got there to find the restaurant was shut? We had pre-booked our table via their website?? Google said open. Their website opening hours said open. Completely threw us and wasted our time walking there. No signs saying it was shut or anything lights completely off, no one inside and couldn't open the door. This was on 19/07/2024.
