I have eaten here before and the food was delicious. We booked a table in advance for our anniversary and even pre-booked our roast dinner. When we arrived the staff had no knowledge of our booking and simply said “we have no roasts” no apology or anything. Really disappointing.

If you are looking for a pub that caters for all ages and doesn't feel stuffy, this is the place to go. Plenty of open space, great vibe and the staff are very welcoming and friendly and quick service even when busy! The land Lady Ell is a real diamond, she makes you feel so welcomed be it your first time here or be you a regular, honestly she is one of if not the best landlord/publican I have come across, so hats off to her and her wonderful staff. The food is absolutely lovely and so so yummy with a great choice too! Great choice of beers and ales and bar snacks too! (Cos well beer is what we come to the pub for, mostly lol unless your a wine drinker). And yes they also serve non alcoholic drinks too. They also have plenty of tv's for live sport, as well as plenty of parking. Honestly a fantastic pub and the recent St Paddy's day was brilliant with live Irish dancing followed by a fantastic band and free Irish stew (which was bloody yummy by the way)! So if you are looking for a new pub to call your regular than honestly you can't go wrong with The Queens Head, don't just take my word for it try it for yourself. Oh and pets are welcomed too :). (No this wasn't written by someone who works here but someone who comes here regular both with friends and also when I want a chilled drink on my own).

Our first visit was a Saturday afternoon for family meet up & a meal, food was ok & reasonable price, vast choice of beers What we didn't realise was this was very much a sports orientated meeting place for local football fans etc, With approx 6 large TVs, snooker table etc, All of which generated so much noise it was hard to hear what we were saying! Perhaps we just picked a busy time , but it was obviously designed for a lad's meeting place rather than family get together, nice land lady,2 car parks, would go back but probably not if football or rugby on TV

The worst experience I had , we were a big table , for sure they don’t know how to deal with that , we were waiting long inclusive for the drinks , the staff is not proactive , we waited 1h 30 minutes for a roast dinner , the Yorkshire pudding was frozen ( from the freezer bag straight to the plate) for sure this pub don’t have a proper chef , the pub was busy but no crazy busy a lot of drinkers , short of staff , very bad management, stay away from this place , this pub have a potential but you need to put the right staff and management that can deal to work under pressure

Highly recommend. Make sure you book. Otherwise, the chances are you won't get a table! We will definitely be back!

Held a fabulous 90th birthday party at the Queens Head for 50 family members and friends. From the moment of enquiry right through to the end, Ellie was super helpful and keen to accommodate all our wishes to make the party a great success. Buffet was excellent quality and exactly what we wanted. Had family photos showing on the tv and perfect background music playing. The birthday boy had a great time. Can’t wait for the next occasion to party at the Queens Head!

A youngish crowd for round these parts. Not as rough and ready as Macs and used to have Rivertown IPA on draft. No more however, so no craft beer alternatives at all. I spied some brewdog cans in the fridge and got excited only to be told they were the alcohol free ones? Very dispiriting I must say. I eventually settled down to Large G+T's with angostura bitters after a pint of Madri which were OK but pricey. Staff and service were decent but not standout. I've heard the pizza's are good but never tried them. Last time we came the same round was a different price every time we went to the bar, this seems to have settled down a bit now. There was some karaoke on, but it was easy enough to ignore.

Stumbled upon this pub after needing to go to a greyhound rescue kennel nearby. The staff were very friendly and welcoming and the Yorkshire pudding wrap was great. Had never seen this as an option before and partly ordered it because I was feeling too lazy to eat with a knife and fork but it was the best roast I've had in ages. You miss out on the veg but a fair compromise and it comes with a pot of gravy to dip your wrap into :)

Ellie and the team were very accommodating to all our ideas and really helped make our day stress free, we couldn’t have asked for anything better. We regularly go for lunch too and the food is very reasonable and tastes great. It’s a family favourite of ours. Thank you to all at The Queens Head for always making us feel at home and for all your help to make our wedding day a special one.

Uk visitors with kids spontaneously stopped on a Sunday en route to London. What a find! Bradley managed to find us a table, we had a wicked Yorkshire wrap roast which the manager called a ‘hug’ - she was right! Small sensible menu of classics and riffs on the same nicely executed for a clearly devoted clientele. Cozy, friendly, atmospheric and staffed by some lovely people - wish it were my local I would be in and out constantly. We were totally spoilt and hope to return

The place was clean, staff clearing tables quickly after customers had left and were very friendly and attentive without being overbearing or making us feel rushed.

I have no idea how good or bad Cov's Pie and Mash is, because they decided to cancel their catering booking for my friend's event at 10pm the day before, to go to the Euros final instead. They had booked and paid for pie and mash for 40 people, so Covs had offered to arrange a back-up plan, but had again let my friend down when the driver supposedly had a flat tyre and couldn't make it to the event. Covs did refund my friend (when prompted), but they had to scramble to arrange back-up options for the party, whilst also hosting the party. My friend had also arranged signage for the party which advertised Covs' social media, and ordered specific bowls and plates that Covs had told them to order - so even though Covs had refunded the order, they were still out of pocket. For all I know, the food may be lovely, but the lack of professionalism and customer service shown by Covs was disgraceful. Avoid using them for any sort of catering or delivery service.

RestoBistro is Epping’s best kept secret, nestled at the southern end of the high street. The food is absolutely delicious, all homemade. An independent restaurant with extremely high standards. The chef and management put on various special themed nights which are always fantastic. I particularly like the Sunday Roasts which are the best for miles around.
