This beautiful small restaurant which has retained all the original features sits in the middle of a small historic town. Its divided into three eating areas downstairs plus there is an upstairs section too that can also be used for private events. The staff were very friendly and knowledgeable. The menu was varied with a specials board in addition. The food top rate.

This is one of the best restaurants in the UK, Kieren is a great chef and will one day get more Michelin stars. Our food was delicious and the service was top draw - definitely worth a visit for the atmosphere and the friendly service alone, and if you like beef try the Wellington...

We booked one of The Falcon's private dining rooms for my dads 60th Birthday. We went during Sunday lunch time and enjoyed several courses of delicious food, cooked to perfection. They were kind enough to also let us arrive prior to our booking in order to decorate the room for my dad (aka balloons and banners everywhere!). The staff were all absolutely lovely and accommodating to all of our needs. I would definitely recommend to anyone, whether you are looking just for a Sunday roast, or would like to hire out the private dining rooms for a special occasion. The pub itself is very classic, the decor perfectly British and it sits in an ideal location in the lovely little town of Buntingford.

Went to the Falcon for a Birthday Celebration lunch on a Sunday - easy parking on High Street and to rear of restaurant , lovely Village High Street location . Very welcoming and friendly staff , cannot speak highly enough of them ...and the food was absolutely spot on ! both in terms of quantity and more importantly quality . Every course hit the mark , although my personal stand out was the roast pork shoulder....the 11 of us who attended all agreed it is a great venue , great food and we will be returning very soon.

Our mains were fine but we all ordered the pie and they had run out! So one of us had to have something else and this is on an early time on a Saturday night! Ordered pear tatin and is was just a sloppy mess of sticky toffee pudding with pears in it. Crazy as there was sticky toffee pudding on the menu? It’s was not nice. Very misleading ad I told the member of staff and her response wasn’t very apologetic to be honest. No return for us!!

I came for lunch at the Falcon on Friday afternoon with my partner and parents and we had the most wonderful experience. The restaurant is absolutely beautiful - so quirky and cosy but really tastefully done. The service we received was fabulous, the lady paid so much attention to us, recommended dishes and drinks that she likes, and made us feel so welcome. The food was 10/10, everything cooked to perfection and the chef Kieran even popped out into the restaurant and thanked us for our compliments. There was an older couple in there who clearly visited regularly and both the chef and one of the waitresses took the time to sit and chat to them which was lovely. We will definitely be returning and thank everyone there for making our experience so lovely.

Been to the Falcon a few times, always had a good experiance. Friendly staff, good selection of quality wine, menu that changes with specials. On my last visit I had the Beef Wellington which is one of the best i've ever had. Great presentation, perfectly cooked fillet of beef, great falvour, crusty pasty, no soggy bottom, creamy mash. Only downside being I was too full for desert! Highly reccomended, best evening restuarent in Buntingford by a country mile.

I recently arranged a special family lunch at The Falcon in Buntingford to celebrate my wife's birthday, and it was truly a fantastic experience. Kieran, the chef, went above and beyond to assist us by providing personalised menu recommendations and ensuring our preferences were met. The restaurant also provided us with a private dining room, allowing us to enjoy our meal in a cozy and intimate setting. The staff members were incredibly friendly, helpful, and engaging, making us feel welcomed and taken care of throughout our visit. The food itself was outstanding, with a diverse range of starters that included delectable options like baked Camembert and whole prawns. The standout dish for me was the beef Wellington, which was prepared to perfection and stands as one of the best I've ever had. To top it all off, the lemon meringue pie we had for dessert was an absolute delight. I want to express my deepest gratitude to Kieran and his amazing team for creating such a memorable and enjoyable birthday lunch.

Came across The Falcon whilst looking at houses in Buntingford. Lovely to see them making the most of the lockdown with a comprehensive take away service. It was only tea, coffee and snacks for us this time but will surely return again for something more substantial. Good quality food at a reasonable price. Given the brisk business they were doing it must be a popular venue, a good sign.

One side acts as a deli and coofee shop during the day with table and chairs outside. Staff very friendly and space between tables and sanitisers to use.

This was a place we had been meaning to visit long before now. Limited menu, grandson went to Sainsburys next door! The soup was lovely but it did not come with any bread which we had to pay an extra £3.50 for. The fish and chips was nice but not worth £17.50. The total bill for three, two people had two courses, one person had one came to just over £90. Staff were very pleasant but overall a disappointing visit, just glad we had the 'eat to save deal.

My friend and I met here simply because it was a half way point, and reviews seemed good. Lovely little restaurant, absolutely delicious food, exceptional, friendly service. Sadly it isn't somewhere I would return to until the pandemic is over as there were no signs of acknowledging it's existence.. not enough distance, no masks or visors, no sanitizer, staff standing really close over you for a chat. We realised after a while that it was odd but were half way through the meal and decided to stay, but not convinced it was very safe. Perhaps stupid to have stayed really but I'd driven a long way...Shame as any other time is say it was a great find and perfect for a meal and catch up with a good friend.

Booked a dinner here to celebrate my son and husband’s birthdays. The mussel starters were very bland, however my terrine was very tasty but rather a large slab. The steaks were well cooked but presentation would not win any awards. Deserts were good, but nothing special. They ran out of the red wine we were drinking, and overall I couldn’t see us ever returning. Such a shame as the website promised so much.

However, living some 300 feet away, I walk past the Falcon several times a day and the menu hasn’t changed much in some time. My wife says it’s “safe” which is not always the best endorsement for a restaurant. Come on, let’s try something new...

The Falcon’s food and ambience is second to none. It’s the second time my wife and I have visited and has only improved since our last visit (which we also enjoyed very much).

Charming service and lovely old listed building. Unfortunately the mussels in the mussels starter were too small, but the sauce and the bread were very good. The steak and the fish and chips were faultless. Desserts too were spot on. The only real disappointment was the 12.5% discretionary service charge that was automatically added to the bill. I said I would like to pay for the total only and I would leave a cash tip. There was a bit of fuss as they had to go away and create a new bill without the service charge. My recommendation is to remove this please, it took the edge off a very pleasant evening and I would have awarded 5/5 otherwise.

The sitting began with a glass of champagne and was followed by the initial course of Chicken Kievs in a mushroom sauce. The chicken was cooked to perfection and was complemented perfectly with the sauce. We then had a refreshing prawn & crayfish cocktail which was paired with a glass of Picpoul and then feasted on a stunning beef wellington which I must say was divine and went down very well with a glass of red. The service was outstanding and compliments must go to both Natasha & Kieren for looking after us and providing such a memorable evening.

Firstly I would like to say that at the planning stage of this Celebration Lunch absolutely nothing was too much trouble. Natasha and her Partner Kieren (The Chef) were full of good ideas and suggestions. Apart from the fact the food was absolutely delicious, it is quite clear that they have taken the trouble to train their staff properly, as we were a party of sixteen it was important to get the service right.This is a particular bug bear of mine as so often small local establishments employ teenagers who unless properly trained don't really understand good service. Our party included five children and everyone was perfectly catered for. This is the first time I have been moved to write a review. I would love to see this charming couple make a success of their business, which they could with our support. Please try and see for yourself! Definitely the best place to eat locally.

We attended the Falcon in Buntingford for Mother’s Day lunch and were seated on a spacious table on the ground floor of the restaurant. I decided to go for the Crispy Suffolk Ham Hock Terrine, which was perfectly cooked and went down an absolute treat with a glass of Mapmaker Sauvignon Blanc. For my main course I went for the Roast Beef. Compliments must be paid to the Chef for the fine quality of the meat and accoutrements. The beef was tender and delicious and the roast potatoes were the perfect combination of slightly crispy yet also fluffy. The vegetables and cauliflower cheese were also sublime and I must add the portion size was very generous. The sticky toffee pudding was the perfect way to round off the meal and was full of flavour and wasn’t too rich. Service overall was extremely efficient and the staff made us feel right at home. In conclusion, I recommend this restaurant to all food lovers and will be returning very soon for one of the newly announced tasting evenings.

We visited your restaurant last night for a birthday celebration. The food was fantastic and the service excellent and the staff made extra effort to make the birthday special. We are now booking for Sunday lunch.

Food is excellent quality however the menu choice is extremely limited and dishes are served requiring a 'side' order to make a balanced dish. £4 for a few lettuce leaves torn into a dish or 4 small new potatoes is very expensive. The pies are just filling with a pastry top, not a proper pie. We've visited twice since the restaurant opened before Xmas and had hoped the second visit would be an improvement on the first. Service can be a bit hit and miss which doesn't justify the added 12.5% service charge. I understand this charge is discretionary but it's difficult to remove it if not satisfied. It would be much more acceptable to tip as you feel appropriate rather than feeling you're being bullied into the 12.5% charge.

We received a wonderful welcome from Natasha. The food was delicious and we had a really relaxed enjoyable evening. Would definitely recommend The Falcon.

We had a wonderful Sunday lunch. Both the meat and vegetables were cooked perfectly. There was a warm welcome on arrival. Small menu but but perfectly balanced. Delicious desserts. We will return Thank you for the experience

What a wonderful find! The building has been faultlessly and sympathetically restored with the most amazing stained glass featuring as dividers, allowing for more privacy between tables. We went for a family lunch to the Falcon to celebrate my birthday, and I wasn’t expecting such fabulous food and such a lovely atmosphere. We shared starters so I was able to sample many wonderful flavours. The goat’s cheese starter was my favourite - absolutely delicious. I had the sausage for my main course, and rhubarb for dessert, both of which were full of wonderful flavours. The service was thoughtful and warm but unrushed. Highly recommended. We will definitely be back.

Evening achieved what we had been looking forward too. Cosy setting,helpful staff.(bit quick serving each course). Food tasty, Cote de bouef succulent & tasty, sauce worked well. Could do with some veg sides to colour the plate.

This is a beautifully presented restaurant- however the food did not meet our expectations . On our first visit we put it down to it only being open a short time but on our second visit it had not changed . The food is alright but it does not make you want to return and for what we had it was expensive .The meal was forgettable which is a shame - it all needs more flavour .

My husband and I recently had dinner at The Falcon and had a thoroughly lovely evening. The building has been decorated and re-designed beautifully, with sectioned off areas with beautiful glass panelled wood that makes dining quiet and personal. We started with mussels and the largest starter of smoked salmon we have ever had. Followed by beef bourguignon and duck cottage pie - both were epic. The mash potato I think was made by an angel - it was that good :) We stupidly ordered dessert even though we were stuffed and had the cheese board (hope you are getting your cheese from Toby at the Cheese plate?!) and sticky toffee pudding, both beautiful but we were stuffed at this point. We will be returning lots :)

We had a great evening meal at this restaurant which has recently been taken over by husband and wife team Kieren and Natasha Steinborn-Busse as chef and front of house.

I was really disappointed with my meal here. The menu was limited with only 4 options for the main course. My starter had too much oil on the top which ruined it. My main of pork belly had a lot of gristle on it, which I do not expect when I am paying £18 for just a piece of pork and some lentils. I ordered some new potatoes on the side and they were not cooked properly and the portion size was minuscule. My partner’s dish was a half-filled pie dish with a lid of pastry which again did not warrant the £17 price tags.

My husband and I had a delicious meal on our first visit to The Falcon on Valentines Day. The staff were charming and we enjoyed the atmosphere in the restaurant, although we did think the tables were very close together - maybe this was just because it was Valentines evening and high demand?

Really cosy from the outside, stepped in to a beautifully and tastefully decorated restaurant. Staff friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. Chocolate fondant simply exquisite.I hope that the vegetarian option changes (roasted cauliflower) as we would love to return

We had an excellent lunch here yesterday, front of house staff charming, welcoming and very attentive. Great choice of dishes, I had one of the vegetarian options for my main which was outstanding and the best chocolate fondant I've ever eaten. Highly recommend dining here, you won't be disappointed!

We had Sunday lunch whish was sublime. We started with the Suffolk Mussels - Yum oh so fresh, followed by the "to die for" Roast beef and trimmings. Nothing was too much trouble and service good. Minor gripe and a bit of bug bear of mine, when 12.5% service charge is added to your bill. Service is discretionary and a gratuity. But this did not overshadow a truly wonderful experience with fabulous food. Finally the coffee is amazing. I rarely drink coffee out and about because it always disappoints (unless you're in Italy), but not at the Falcon. Lovely. Thank you The Falcon.

It was our first visit and will certainly not be our last. The food was first class. The staff attentive and definitely on the ball. Gary and his team are worthy of gold stars.

Whenever we go, this place is always busy no matter what day or time. This is simply because of the quality of the service and products. today, we had a sandwich. Mine, chicken salad with onion marmalade was simply delicious (who would think of marmalade in a chicken salad sandwich)? The other sandwich was prawn salad which I'm told was also delicious. Both sandwiches were at least an inch thick and no, that was not mostly salad, but chicken and prawn. My cappuccino was simply lovely. Add to this the staff are always friendly and accommodating, what else can anyone want?

6 of us ladies of leisure had breakfast in here this morning. Have been here a few times and they never disappoint. Food and service is consistently good. Run by a lovely friendly family. We all opted for omelettes ( different fillings) and they were perfect. Good coffee as well. Will be making this a more regular haunt . Can’t recommend enough

Poor. Used to be a lovely Pub to have a Roast Dinner in, especially on the Sundays the Classic Cars turned up! Today's Roast Beef was frankly nothing of the sort, tough, stringy and tasteless - I suspect it wasn't the days Roast at all, but some pre-packaged 'Roast Beef' slices. Apart from that, it's a nice, friendly, local Pub.
