Green Cafe in Uttlesford

Lovely little spot on the flitch way. Stopped for lunch with the kids- very accommodating and peaceful!

wonderful Tea, cakes and more+ in a really relaxed and friendly place! Perfect stop off on a flitch walk/ride! A little gem!

A lovely setting. Friendly staff and good food. Thank you.

Great location and great food to kick off an evening at the O2.

I booked a table on sunday evening for me and my partner as a special occasion. I was able to complete the booking and got confirmation that my booking had been accepted. When we arrived at the restaurant we found that it was closed and under renovation which ended up ruining the evening as we were not able to find anywhere else suitable which had tables available! You should not be able to book a table and receive confirmation of the booking when a place is quite clearly closed and being renovated!

We arrived on time for our “confirmed reservation” to discover the place is closed for renovation.

Cute and quiet place with great food with good hearty portions! Glad I went :)

Great, authentic Italian food and really nice atmosphere. We will definitely visit again!

So wholesome and lovey! Genuinely so authentic and the chest where talking in Italian which just made you feel like you was in Italy! One of the best calzones I’ve had!

Super food reasonably priced and super quick and friendly service.

Lovely evening, great food, service and ambience!

Excellent restaurant for pre marathon pasta! Good service from the staff and food was great.

On first impressions the restaurant looks cute, like a small family run place. However the service, food and wine are severely lacking. We were made to feel bad for not liking wine we had asked to try, which made the rest of our experience feel very uncomfortable as our food wasn’t great at all. Our meals were bland and underwhelming. My friend had seafood pasta which was obviously frozen and smelt strongly of fish but with 0 flavour. My calzone had tinned mushrooms in it, and just looked and tasted like a sad old lump of dough on my plate. All in all £90 for a meal for 2 here felt like robbery. We wished we’d gone around the corner to Franco Manca - it would have been delicious, fresh, and a much more relaxing dinning experience.

Amazing restaurant, beautiful food and friendly staff

Excellent food, I wish more interaction from staff.

Got wanted table, nice service, cosy vibes, great food. Enjoyed a lot, and especially wife was very happy! 😊

It was ok. Pizzas were a bit bland and too salty. The fries came between the starter and main course - which vs was t great but we were hungry. Okay service. Fair food but quite expensive for what we got. Wouldn’t go back

We had the best time ever. The food was great, service- stunning and the atmosphere was incredible. I am delighted to say that the owner who is running that place is an incredible man and he has a great spirit 😉🥰😁

Proper tasty Italian pizza with friendly service With a smile

The Service was nice. But They served me pizza bread as Focaccia. Focaccia is meant to be fluffy. Also the mushrooms I had was not fresh! It was from the can. I was very disappointed about the quality of the food. This place is too expensive for the poor quality! I don't recommend this restaurant at all.

The waiter and waitresses were incredible but sadly the food was pretty bad.

Customer services second to none, a great entertainer front of house.

Lovely food and very friendly staff, good atmosphere. Would definitely recommend.

Food was very poor quality the pizza we ordered the Capriciosa all ingredients weren’t fresh and seemed from a tin. I understand times are tough right now but for me that was I credibly poor. And the middle of the pizza was soggy and wet I’m guessing from what seemed the tinned ingredients.

Food was cold as had been heated from the freezer and had to be sent back, the pizza was bland. There were lots of tiny flies around the table. Lots of staff standing around but still have to ask and try and get someone’s attention every time you need something. Cocktails weren’t nice either. Overall I thought this was going to be amazing Italian food but it was very disappointing and wouldn’t go back.

Was very disappointed that there was a different menu for the ‘eat out to help out’ campaign. As I had decided on the mixed grill before I booked. There was hardly any meat choices. Once the restaurant started to get busier it became very noisy. Staff were pleasant and the food we ordered was nice.

Firstly I was not given a clean menu (provided to every guest), I was simply sat at the table and the big dude who showed me to my table did not explain that it's a QR code menu (where you take a picture of the code, and get the menu on your Smart Phone). I arrived before my friend, and not once was I asked if I wanted to order a drink first, even when I waved for the waitress's attention - she just nodded her head but didn't come over until minutes later. One waitress did not understand much English, my friend had to ask for ice twice which we didn't get, and on the third asking - the waitress apologised for not understanding. The big dude who I suspect is the boss / manager wasn't pleasant when we were deciding which bottle of wine to settle for, we of course wanted to taste first which he obviously didn't like, and even said 'the more you taste, the less you will be able to taste the flavour' however, we had only tested 2 different wines at that point so personally I felt he was rude. This was a COVID-19 lockdown ease dinner which we were really looking forward to however, felt that it wasn't a hygienic experience. Our temperatures were not taken before entry (like other restaurants do), there was no hand sanitiser either upon entry or at the table, not even in the toilet (note that there is only 1 ladies toilet which was blocked, but customers were still allowed to use it), tables were wiped down between each seating but not the chairs, aircon was not great, or even on for most of the evening, we were sat upstairs next to the Gents / outside staircase, and could constantly smell cigarette smoke. I felt grubby by the end of the meal, on top of all of that the head waitress decided to put a tip on top of the bill without us realising,I said to divide the bill equally-she rounded it up before dividing so made 0.75p tip from each of us (which isn't much but that is not the point), I thought it was cheeky, but only realised when I looked at the receipt properly.

Really lovely waiting staff. Starters awesome, 2 out of 3 mains were not good at all. One cold and one covered in oil. Resturant dealt with it well and didn't charge for the dishes and added a discount. It was a shame but we assumed it was due to a staffing issue in the kitchen.

We had a small issue with our drinks order, which was rectified promptly and efficiently. Excellent service and delicious food. Thanks for a lovely evening!

Excellent food with the best service! Thank you

A little disappointed this time, as they didn't have the wine we like, but on the whole, an enjoyable evening.

I live nearby and have been here several times, would definitely recommend this place for really nice Italian food

Incredibly friendly staff - always making us smile. Food is delicious and proper authentic Italian. Highly recommend the Tiramisu! Only negative is the tables are a little close together.. but it would depend on who’s sitting on the table next you?

Lovely food and amazing service. Went to Bianco43 for our birthdays/Valentine's day and we were amazed with our experience, can't believe we haven't been here before.

I live locally and really like Bianco43, I've been a number of times now, it's certainly one of the nicest Italian's locally

Can’t say enough good things about this place! So fun, great service, small place but very cozy and you feel like you’re a part of the place.

Having pre-booked a week in advance, with a request to be seated downstairs due to us bringing a toddler, I arrived to the surprise of the the staff member sounding bemused or surprised that I had a booking at the time of arrival. This meant a table wasn’t ready for us, nor was a high chair prepared for a reserved table. We had to wait a bit for one to be prepared downstairs for us, but then again I had to request a high chair, even though it was obvious I was with a toddler. Unfortunately however, the one and only high chair available at the time couldn’t be locked, which meant I had no choice but to sit my kid in it unsecured. Overall, I wouldn’t recommend the space for families with kids as the downstairs area is very small and congested, with no or little space for buggies, unless you chose to Cary your kids and buggies upstairs via the stairs - the only way up. I had been here a few times and highly enjoyed going there but my last visit was a turn off. It was a bit chaotic and a bit loud at times.

It used to be my fav italian restaurant in the area. Now the quality of food is the poorest, near catering level. The risotto rice was watery, and it looked more like a rice soup than a risotto, complete lack of creamy texture and cheese. The burrata salad was not great either. Presentation was poor and the tomatoes were big tomatoes cut small rather than proper piccolo tomatoes. The mushroom toasties same, bad presentation and it was cold. Would def not recommend

Pizzas were absolutely delicious and the service was very good. Will 100% be back.

Very Authentic Italian supper, trattoria-style. Filled with Italian friends and family of the Branco 43 team - a far, and well welcomed, departure from the ubiquitous Faux-Italian chains up and down the high street, this cosy dining experience will appeal to those who have explored the off the beaten track treasures of Rome’s delightful casual dining scene...

We went to this restaurant for our new year eve, we waited 20 mins for our table and then an hour for our starters. Was very unimpressed, the waiter felt bad so gave us a discount but will not be returning.

We loved it! Great atmosphere. Amazing food, like being back in Italy

Tasty food, friendly and delightful server. Space is a little tight and they forgot to bring me a side dish I ordered, but I didn&#039;t need it in the end, as the vegan calzone I had was extremely tasty and filling.<br /><br />Will go back.

We love the place and the ambience but the food was really disappointing. The lasagne was very tomatoey....and it hardly had any meat. The sea bass had a very odd crust and the fish was therefore tasteless.<br />Service however was good.

Lovely, proper Italian food and the wine in particular, was excellent (a Pinot Grigio and organic Nero D&#039;avola) .<br />The only reason this place doesn&#039;t get an Excellent across the board is that we booked for 12:00 Noon and they weren&#039;t able to let us in &#039;til 5 past and then seemed a bit confused as to why we&#039;d possibly want to - timings are important when you have a hungry toddler and restless new born!<br /><br />The maitre&#039;d also seemed pretty disinterested and only warmed up at the end of our meal - although the waitress we had was lovely.<br /><br />Generally speaking though a lovely Italian and I would recommend to anyone in the area.

The food was great but the service although friendly was terrible. Had to ask on multiple occasions for everything. The meal in total took 2.5hrs! The only thing that did come quickly was the bill of which we resented paying the 12.5% service charge they automatically added. One starter was still frozen inside. The additonals asked for never came. In short nice food but be prepared to ask a thousand times for things like water and cutlery!

Disappointing food - very expensive for the (poor) quality

I&#039;m a regular client and as always the experience was perfect!

Great food, great service. One of our favourite italians in the area

Well, I have booked a table for 7 people and have added my comment that we are coming with new born baby and there will be a baby buggy, so we need space for buggy next to the table.<br />First arrived me and my hubby, staff was surprised when I said about my comment and baby buggy. <br />Finally we were placed on the first floor where is not really lot of space so we had to moved tables but in the same time we have blocked entrance to gents toilet so each time if someone was going to toilet I had to move my chair. <br />We have made order with hubby for a drinks as we arrived first before our guests. My husband drink came after half an hour without my drink. In the same time our guests arrived with baby buggy. Guys took a buggy up the stairs. I have asked waiter where is my drink as I ordered beer for hubby and wine for myself and only beer was brought. I was told it will come when my guests place drink order. I said no, I am waiting half an hour and I want my drink now, not later with other orders. Also music was very laud, we couldn&#039;t speak, we were screaming to each other, so we have asked a waiter to turn it a bit as a speaker was just straight above our table. <br /><br />We choose this restaurant because they had risotto in menu. When we were placing the food order we were told there is no risotto any longer but is not removed from menu. I was very disappointed.<br />Finally we had to order pizzas, our order was mixed a bit, my sister was waiting the longest as ingredients on her pizza were wrong .<br />So, I don&#039;t recommend this restaurant.

A lively fun evening in Great environment. Pizza much more superior than elsewhere. Worth the money.

Food was super, everyone very pleased. The decor is also very tasteful. The concierge - unsure of exact position - was quite irritating and did not recognise that we were not enjoying his attitude and humour, though that would be the only negative

Delicious pizzas and really good service. Definitely will be visiting again.

Service was good all staff very nice, food was good but far too small portions for the price. Very cold where we were sat at top of the stairs would have prefered an obviously better table that were visibly free as we were seated. Would definitely try again but would not recommend to a friend.

Excellent food and service. Not cheap but worth it. This was our first visit to the Greenwich branch. We have been to the branch in Blackheath many times in the past and glad to say Greenwich lived up to the same reputation we remember from 6 years ago when we used to live in Blackheath

We were a group of 8 and arrived on time at 7:30. We had literally just finished eating that they had brought the bill to the table, without even asking! We were then told they had another group of 8 coming and we had to leave. We asked for the dessert but they told us it was too late and only managed to order 1 and eat it in a rush (less than 3 minutes). They did offer a limoncello free for each one of us trying to be nice, but we felt really uncomfortable and annoyed about being kicked out after about 1 hour and 15mins! They actually made us a deal “we’ll give you free limoncello if you leave in less than 10mins” TRULY DISAPPOINTING! The same happened to a table close to us. Guys, next time plan the number of customers better: Better have few happy customers than lots of annoyed ones just to make more money!

Absolutely perfect! Thank you so much for all making this a superb experience; amazing food and the best team in Greenwich!

The manager was fantastic and full of life. Such a lovely atmosphere and it felt really authentic - will definitely go back!

Simply amazing food, great ambience but would prefer a more adequate music at a lower volume. Wonderful experience overall, I already knew the place and this visit confirmed the great impression I had. Highly recommended!!

I had a great meal here. The menu is quite extensive with a lot of choice of various pasta dishes, pizza as well as meat/fish mains. Food came out in good time although the restaurant wasn’t overly busy as it was early evening. The nduja/mozzarella/aubergine ravioli that my sister had was delicious. I had the speck and Gorgonzola gnocchi which again had a tasty sauce and the gnocchi was cooked perfectly. We shared the profiteroles for dessert which are 2 large ones with a gorgeous, not too sweet, thick chocolate sauce. I read some of the other reviews and disagree with the comments about the music being too loud and about the service. There was a lovely waitress who’s name I unfortunately didn’t catch - a blonde Scottish lady who was very friendly and attentive. I would definitely return.

Amazing food, incredible service, Alessandro true soul of the place. Best pizzeria in town

Second time here and the food is really great, the pizzas are superb, the dough is as good as I’ve had anywhere, bread awesome. The calzone pizzas not your Usual calzone, but all the better for that. Staff are great, the main man is a legend in his own lunchtime. Only minor niggle, please turn music down it’s over loud and it’s just a bit odd very American, better suited to US Diner environment.

Very good food and a great ambience. Staff very attentive especially as we had a three year old with us.<br />Would recommend Bianco to anybody wanting Italian food in Greenwich.

this was my second visit and we loved it so much we came back and brought a few friends who loved it too! the food is amazing, best Tiramisu ever! Great relaxed and friendly local atmosphere in a cute town house, feels like you are eating in your own living room! Staff are attentive, friendly and lovely, superb little local restaurant, we will return many more times for sure!!!

I&#039;ve been twice and both times the experience was execellent! Really nice staff and food. 100% recommendable!

One of my favourite Italian restaurant in London! Alessandro is the best. <br />Definitely recommended!

Marvellous food, the spaghetti al fruto del mare (with clams, prawns, and squids) ysasted like being at holidays by the sea!

We visited this restaurant on a Friday evening and it was an excellent experience. We were greeted by a very friendly staff and we shown to a lovely table upstairs. It was a warm evening but the windows were open and we could see outside and Greenwich being busy . We ordered a range of starters which were delicious. The menu has something for everyone which was good . We loved our evening and the food spoke for itself

Great Italian with lovely waiting staff. Definitely recommend!!

Amazing food, great atmosphere, brilliant service, a wonderful authentic Italian restaurant! I thought was in Italy during the dinner!! Definitely recommended!!

Excellent food and wonderful service. Absolutely perfect for family, date, etc.

This is such a cute little place and has a really nice individual feel inside. However I was quite disappointed with the lack of attentive or personal service. We were seated right next to the bar where staff were always present yet 20 minutes after being seated I had to flag someone down to request to order some drinks. We also had to prompt staff to clear our plates once finished as they were just left sitting there. Everything else was nice, good food and a good atmosphere.

Romantic and rustic Italian micro restaurant. Loved the ambiance. For couples, I’d say go after 7:30pm to enjoy a more date night feel. The staff are Italian and the feeling there was transportative... felt like we left London for the evening. Very reasonable prices and great food. The bruschetta with mozzarella and meat spread was out of this world.

Perfect atmosphere and amazing staff. I&#039;ll be back soon!!

Delicious food and great service. The server sat down with us when ordering, making recommendations. He was also very helpful regarding customising items on the menu to make them vegan. Can be a little noisy, especially if you&#039;re sat near the door with people coming and going, but I found this pleasantly bustling rather than annoying. The pizza is amazing and the vegan cheese is definitely one of the better ones on the market!

Very friendly staff. Food was good as well. Would definitely recommend.

Lovely family run restaurant with great food and lovely service.

My husband received the wrong order and when we made the staff aware of that we have been told that his choice was not available and they prepared an alternative dish. <br /><br />I believe they should have advised before taking that decision as the ingredients were different and they could have not been in line with his taste. The dish was removed from the bill but we would have preferred to be advised before the choice was made. He would have had time to change his order.

Poor food quality, I think this restaurant only services perhaps due to transient tourists.

Lovely food. Very warm in there, especially upstairs. Slow service to the table in the first instance but the mains arrived as the starters were taken away!

I love Bianco 43. I&#039;m a regular client and always aim to go there in any situation which involves Italian food. Love the pizza, love the staff. Thanks!

Very disappointed to have booked for a relaxing special wedding anniversary dinner that lasted 45mins due to our main courses being brought to the table before we had finished our Starters because &#039;your pasta is ready&#039;! Really? Were they in a hurry for us to leave a half empty restaurant. A very expensive bill for a ruined evening as I could not eat most of my main dish straight on top of a filling Starter. Will not return.

A really friendly, rustic restaurant with a lovely atmosphere

Visited after a day out in Greenwich park. We arrived there super hungry and left very disappointed. We ordered a simple Margherita and a chicken roulade rolled in bacon. It’s a common belief that anything covered in bacon should taste good - but this theory did not hold good here. The chicken was dry and under seasoned. The Margherita was nothing to write home about. Not a fan- overpriced and subpar food. The wait staff were nice though.

My favourite local restaurant. Real italian place. Excellent food and great friendly service always.

Family lunch following a visit to Greenwich Theatre. We had two small grandchildren with us aged 4 and 7 who enjoyed the kiddies menu. The food was authentic Italian and we enjoyed excellent pizza and pasta. The Arancini deserves a special mention!

The burrata starter was the best one I had outside Puglia.<br />Pizza bases were excellent and on a par with any you can get in Italy. <br />Bread selection side plate was delicious too.<br /><br />We will definitely visit again next time we’re in Greenwich.

Great and authentic pizza. Mine was a bit burned and I would have expected at least an apology for that but maybe that is part of the authenticity. The non-burnt part of the pizza was absolutely delicious though and the staff was very friendly. I would go again in any case.

For those prices it wasn&#039;t that special. Staff could have been friendlier.. great location though and cute restaurant

In short - weird loud Euro-disco clubbing music, the linguine had no flavour the calzone my brother had had no tomato sauce in and was crazy salty; and the prices were just that little bit above Pizza Express though I don&#039;t feel the food was that little bit above quality. Other than that, the staff were perfectly nice and the venue was clean.

I booked this restaurant as it was close to our hotel and we were down for the London Marathon. I was so glad I was organised and booked because it was manic!!<br />This restaurant was a hive of activity and with it being such a small place it felt even busier. I cannot fault the food, probably the best garlic bread I have ever had and the pizza was just as good 🤤<br />My only criticism is we had to remind them of our drinks order even though we already had our starters. I can’t complain too much as they were rushed off their feet.<br />Great little restaurant with friendly staff.

On way to o2. Have used Bianco a few times always great . Good menu and reasonably priced . Perfectly place for a walk round Greenwich before a concert or event

Excellent food, excellent pizza, one of the best, if not the best one, restaurants in this area.

Amazing food. Cool atmosphere.

Lovely, bright and friendly place.<br />Positives:<br />Food quality was great, fresh pasta and a good drinks wine list.<br />Staff exceptionally friendly and very attentive. Dealt with a small complaint decisively, professionally and with discretion. It&#039;s not the compaint...It&#039;s how it is handled and remedied. 10/10<br />Two courses, two glasses of wine, one Prosecco and two beers = £63. Great value.<br />Negatives:<br />NONE<br />Would recommend this place.

Was good. Pasta bit disappointing as only one prawn. They said they had no mussels so quite a lot of squid. When we arrived they weren’t that welcoming. Overall good food and good value.

I took my family for lunch here to celebrate my mums birthday. The food was very good and the waitresses were so lovely and helpful. I would recommend this place and will visit again, when in the area. <br /><br />I had the arancine to start and burrata e nduya pizza for main. Both gorgeous!!

Small, but perfectly formed. Making a booking is absolutely essential at this restaurant as it is right in the heart of Greenwich.<br /><br />The staff are friendly and efficient. The food is fantastic. Even though we went during a busy Sunday lunchtime we didn&#039;t have to wait long for our food at all.<br /><br />A delightful restaurant, all in all.

Beautiful food, really helpful staff, and a lovely atmosphere. Took a friend visiting London here and he&#039;s not stopped ranting about how great it is since.

Food was ok, one of the starters was cold in stead of hot, but was deducted from the bill.
