Orange Tree Pub & Dining in Havering - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

We ate at lunchtime today and there was a long delay with the food as a temporary chef was covering the kitchen and was trying hard to find everything! The food was great when it arrived so was well worth the wait :)

Great pub for a family meal. Lots of parking and plenty of indoor and outdoor seating

Extremely great food, literally next level quality It’s not typical pub food cooking, it’s like restaurant quality. Pricy, yes but your getting what u pay for in this place Photos is chicken roast and dirty burger I’ve had steak and fish and chips and I must say the steak is miller and carter quality and fish and chips is well above standard

I went this Sunday with my sister for lunch lots of room inside good size open and covered/shaded outside space over two levels I had a steak which was excellent rested medium rare with some of the fat cap still on for better flavour unfortunately my sister ordered the rost beef Sunday lunch good portions but oh dear the beef was cut into 10 mm slabs stiff and dry that looked like it had been left under the heat lamps too long or had been microwaved to warm up? I personally would have sent it back and had something different But my sister Miss Don't make a fuss as you can throw any old noise bag on and she will quite happily chow down (dogs liked the doggie bag beef) Had to go elsewhere for real coffee as not sold here and as for dessert much on offer

Popped in for lunch to celebrate my granddaughter’s GCSE results, good was lovely and great service too. Will be back!

A big thank you to Abi and the team at the Orange Tree. We held my Dad's wake there . The buffet was outstanding . Great choices of food. The service was brilliant. Beautiful rooms . It was just perfect. A lovely ending to a long and difficult day. Thank you all so much. Xxx

Loved the Orange Tree. Food was delicious. Staff were lovely and entertainment was great a lovely venue.

Was a fabulous evening! Fab drinks food & service would highly recommend. Tiramisu was the best. I think a summer menu would be a good idea.

Great spot to enjoy a drink in the sunshine! Beautiful flowers and great service

Lovely pub/restaurant and best thing is it's pet friendly.

Accompanied by beautiful green gardens all around the pub features beautiful flowers and decorations, Plenty of parking and both indoor and outdoor seating, this restaurant is worth a night out

Lovely friendly pub with great delicious food

Had a fantastic time, it’s a lovely pub and the food was amazing, prawn cocktail, calamari, sea bass and the chicken were all absolutely outstanding. The staff are very helpful couldn’t be better. Definitely going back again.

After the time of sadness we had experienced locally, we were glad to find this place of welcome.

Lovely little pub just outside Romford! Traditional inexpensive lunch food to suit all tastes, soft drink as driving and great staff, made to feel very welcome.

Fantastic place in a quiet area, outside tables have heating as well for the cooler evenings. Food was of great quality with excellent service and brought out quickly, highly recommend

Fantastic place for lunch with visiting family. Super friendly staff, lovely garden seating. Really enjoyed the visit and will definitely return

Love this pub. Great atmosphere both inside and out. Great range of beers on draft, good range of wine selection, and hard spirits available. Pub is set in a beautiful village and has a friendly, cosy village style setting inside. Food selection is both varied and tasty, and good value.

Excellent food, good service and nice surroundings. 👍

Great pub, with great food. We keep coming back as locals plus it’s dog friendly!

Had an opportunity to visit as it had been recommended several times. Great that it's dog friendly. Good selection of drink and food but Steak Baguettes were awful. Barely cooked bits of meat that were chewy, gristly offcuts. Disappointed to say the least. Would go back but will try something different next time.

Hands down one of the best pub foods I've ever had I ordered the liver and bacon but regret as gf ordered The fish fillet which came on top of mash and a green sauce, and it was perfection Will come here again

Lovely food, great service, very friendly & helpful staff.

Popped in for lunch with the family. Lovely food and great service as always, and best of all dog friendly too and was able to have our furry family member inside with us.

Eaten at the Orange Tree pub on a couple of occasions. The staff are friendly, the service is good and the food is reasonable and good. It was pretty busy when we went which added to the atmosphere, and they accommodated 3 toddlers no problem. I would certainly recommend coming here.

Really lovely food and atmosphere. Pleasantly surprised as I had read previous poor reviews.

Great to eat out with a large german shepherd. Very friendly staff.

Food has always been decent in here. Although for the service isn't great when the pressure is on. As for the soul festival, forget ever going. Terribly run. Over crowded, and the pub was closed early. Because of this. And to charge £17 for a burger on that day was ridiculous. I dont think anyone would say any different.

Stumbled upon the place after a stroll in the woods. Very very nice. Will be going back. The food coming out looked amazing.

Very nice pub with a good early evening food trade, very reasonable menu.

Great place for a Sunday roast dinner. The food was delicious and all the staff were lovely. I can’t recommend this place highly enough.

Enjoyed the cosy atmosphere and scenic garden views, ideal for a tranquil drink. I've added it to my barguide.london site too!

Nice place to visit. Not any seats in the bar area were available when I visited and didn't have any food this time round. Will definitely revisit. But you probably have to book, I don't think this is a drop in kind of pub, especially if you bring your dog.

If I could give this pub 0 stars I would have, it's only because I had to rate it to proceed with the review that I am giving it one star! I have no doubt it is a lovely pub had me and my partner been permitted to step over the threshold, unfortunately we was told over the phone that this "dog friendly " pub will not allow us to enter with our Xl bully as they have to think about their other customers. Whilst I appreciate that they have to take their other customers into consideration I also think this is highly discriminating as we have an exemption certificate and our sweet gentle giant is muzzled as required by law. I would not recommend this pub as being dog friendly and I think it's completely unacceptable that this ignorant attitude exists amongst supposed dog lovers. Its this kind of ignorance that gives this beautiful breed a bad name and responsible owners that follow the rules

Nice pub. Had beer after nearby country walk. Sat in beer garden. Very busy. Food looked good.

Lovely pub great food and service.

Found this little place driving back from a kids sporting event. Really really nice place, roasts were amazing.

Great atmosphere and friendly staff.

First time visit. Had Liver & Bacon, cooked perfectly. Lots of Liver ony two rashers of Bacon.

Steak and ale pie was lovely, quick service and friendly staff :) the pub had a lovely atmosphere.

We popped in after visiting the family. The four of us had a fantastic meal. Good job.

My sirloin was amazing one of the best I've ever had staff polite courteous locals were very nice too give it a go !!!!!

Food was top notch, service & staff lovely & on point, made a lovely celebration for a family members 90th!

Probably the best pub meal I've ever had at a very reasonable price. The service was very friendly and attentive.

I honestly think this was the best pub lunch I've ever had. The nachos sharer was fantastic freshly made corn chips. Liver and bacon that was even better than my mum's (sorry mum). Bread and butter pudding. Fabulous. Everyone agrees that we need to go back again.

Beautiful southern fried chicken wrap, moretti and amazing onion rings

Found this place on a country walk. Lovely cozy atmosphere. We only stopped for a latte so I can't comment on the food.

The restaurant was very warm and welcoming on a cold, crisp day. We had a very relaxing family lunch and we were all very happy with our meals.

Rude staff. Noone is serving behind the bar. You wait for 20 mins to be told there is no food service outside, even though before ordering I checked if they serve food and was told they do. Worst service ever.

rude staff. no service behind the bar

Lugar agradable y ambiente familiar

Fantastic service, great food and a lovely atmosphere

Always enjoy our evenings at the Orange Tree. The service was great, the waitress/barmaid this evening was lovely and very helpful. Defo going back!!

Great little pub. Not our usual type of location as we don't drive on holiday. Most impressed

Pretty good pub, though I was hoping for a more interesting menu, rather than typical pub food. It was cranking when we arrived

Sadly not a good experience, waited 90 minutes for our food. No one asked if we wanted drinks while waiting. Several food requests were unavailable and we had pre ordered. One meal was delayed 20 minutes after everyone else had theirs. Under cooked burger and cheesecake missing its sauce. All in all a disaster.

Always loved it here, good food and friendly staff

Beautiful place and delicious Sunday roast

Lovely Sunday Roast Friendly welcoming staff certainly will go back again.

Good beer. Friendly. Good atmosphere.

Quaint pub with a delectable Sunday roast. Highly recommended for a lazy Sunday afternoon.

Great food. Great staff friendly place

Super pub with a great atmosphere and tasty food, what's not to like.

Good food friendly staff. Well done

We had the sunday roast it was lovely.

I live in Romford and I have tried many many different gastro pubs all over the country and restaurants for Sunday Roast dinner and the orange Tree is without a doubt my favourite Beef Roast destination every Sunday. Excellent crispy garlic golden roast potatoes Tasty, beef cooked to how you like it Braised warm red cabbage Beef dripping gravy Honey glazed carrots Crunchy Parsnip Peas, shredded cabbage And lastly, big Yorkshire puddings All I can say is, thank you to the chef and the staff at the Orange tree and as long as the quality of the food doesn’t alter, I will keep coming back each week :)

Had a roast beef, disgusting the beef couldn’t even cut through. server asked if he wanted horseradish (she missed heard us we said yes she thought we said no )and then we overheard her moaning to staff that she had to come back again.

Celebration for a dear friends 90th birthday. A perfect day out. Lovely, welcoming place. Flower displays were lovely. Food n drink good!

Nice lunch fabulous garden area would recommend 👌

Been coming here for years and the food has always been really nice. Unfortunately this time everyone said that the food wasn't up to the normal standard which is a shame

Really lovely pub, friendly staff and delicious food! The garden is also so lovely!

Me and my family occasionally/ normally go to the orange tree pub because we love the food options and most of all the atmosphere it is a beautifully designed pub , parking space is good and the people / services is like you are the main priority

Dog friendly inside and outside. Beer garden is lovely. Very accomodating to dogs, babies, and vegetarians.

Good time staff really welcome nice inside and out would definitely go back used to live up the green years ago good to visit the orange tree again

Great Sunday roast. Outside space and parking. Good local pub.

I was disappointed with this visit on Father's Day. The food of one of our party of 5 was great. The rest was really below par, which was a surprise to us as we've often had nice food here. The staff were nice but the service wasn't as good as it could be. Maybe because they were very busy, but it resulted in them forgetting to bring things over to us, and an item ordered didn't arrive. The atmosphere was affected by overly loud music, so we couldn't hear each other or make ourselves heard by staff who were very busy. It did quieten down eventually. Sad to give a disappointing review.

The food was so good and delicious 🤤 the environment was perfect, with accents of British interior design decor. The staff was amazing, very attentive and friendly at all times. The portion are average size I believe, and you can eat one portion until satisfied perfectly. If you order some starters, maybe the main dish will be too much if you aren't sharing with anyone. Overall experience was great, and I would for sure come back next time I visit London! Thanks for the hospitality!

If i could leave half a star i would. We took my father in law to lunch for his birthday, there were 6 adults and a one year old. Our waiter got most of the order wrong, including giving a full priced sunday roast to the one year old and seemed surprised that we said he'd never be able to eat all that. We ordered 3 lamb roasts, all came up raw, one of our guests didn't want a new meal so had nothing. When the 2 new lamb dinners returned, there was some cooked lamb and some raw but it was all mostly fat. Everything was completely overseasoned. We were charged for 7 adult meals even though we ordered 6 but one was returned without a replacement. It was absolutely awful and I'm very disappointed that we were asked to pay full price for everything considering the dreadful experience we had. A ruined birthday lunch. I would steer clear of this place and perhaps go to either The Rabbits or Top Oak, both far superior.

A solid 3 out of 5 A decent meal at a standard price. It's not anything special, impressive or noteworthy but it's all right. If you come here you'll have a nice enough time.

Lovely friendly staff. Food was a but disappointing 8.5 for a tuna sandwich, wasn't worth the money

Appalling and very lazy service. Food mediocre at best. It took over 52 minutes for a simple roast lamb to arrive with no apologies. And that’s the main issue. Avoid at all cost.

Had a meal here for my birthday with the family yesterday, 8 of us. Food was excellent, only gripe was the wait for the food. Over an hour wait for mains, which would be acceptable if it was adults but as we had kids with us, tainted the experience a bit.

God this place has really gone down hill, waiting staff as nice as she normally is and that's the only thing good to say about tonights experience. You have your starter and then wait over an hour for your main course, being told " sorry the chef is on his own" and when it does come the standard is really poor The fish tasted like it had come from Icland and then covered in extra thick batter. Don't bother wasting your money.

Sunday roast? Booked in advance? What could go wrong? The kitchen had a 'mare. First warm sunny Sunday of the year, and the pub was packed inside and out. Starters took 50 minutes to arrive. Main courses another 50, then returned as the potatoes weren't cooked. The food itself was decent - the starters were very good. After almost 3 hours we passed on pudding. Shame that prior bookings didn't take precedence over walk-ins when the kitchen was clearly stressed. I'm looking forward to returning for dinner another time.

Food was good, atmosphere was good and friendly and is well situated.

Nice food friendly staff. Well priced. Would recommend

I dined here with a large party midweek, a range of ages including young children. The service was friendly and the staff did all they could meet our needs. The food was good and fairly priced. I would recommend and return to the Orange Tree.

Left a little disappointed after having some nice meals there in the past. Staff took their time to attend our table to take our order despite it not being that busy. Roasts were tasty but the roast potatoes were undercooked...hard inside and not crispy - the exact opposite you want in a roastie IMO.

Had a lovely meal there ( Cod & Chips ). Beautifully cooked, succulent cod, and lovely crispy chips. Lovely pint to wash if down with. Great service, didn't have to wait too long for our food. Definitely recommend and go back again 👍

EDIT: Pub responded to this review asking me to email them about my experience so they could put it right. I did and they never responded. Even more of a reason to not return. Another star dropped for lack of customer service. Food is lovely. Roast is great, however I paid £80 to reserve a table for 8 a week before booking and was not told you could pre order meals. When we attended, pretty much all roasts and sides were sold out, so not much to choose from. None of what we ordered was our first choice. This is a miss and poor service from the restaurant and staff (lack of training?), especially when we've paid so much of a deposit for 4 adults, 3 children and a baby. Had to really get staff attention to take drink orders and then food orders. Requested a table with high chair, not present when we attended. This was our first visit but unfortunately didn't blow us away. Dining at a restaurant is about the full package, not just the meal. Finally we paid with one waitress and another came over after asking if we'd paid, almost insinuating that we hadn't. How dare you. Check with your colleagues to see if we've paid, don't harass customers. Disappointing experience. My own fault. I'd meant to book The Rabbits and got mixed up. Had hoped this would be a refreshing experience but it was not.

Lovely food polite, friendly service and good value for money

Lovely lunch after a morning shopping

It's an absolutely amazing place, but it doesn't sell orange trees.

What a amazing Sunday afternoon dinner, me and my family had such a wonderful dinner, the food was delicious and the staff were amazing, we are a family of 9 , the staff were wonderful, the whole pub was amazing.. thank you so much Orange Tree staff,see you again soon 🙏🏽🙏🏽❤️❤️
