The Plough in Uttlesford

Cosy, warm, comfortable, friendly pub and a fantastic Sunday lunch today

The food is amazing here, one of the best meals I had in a while. Everything tastes freshly made. The service was also brilliant.

Excellent food and service. Very clean. We will be going back

Family visit for Sunday lunch. Very good service. Would use it again.

Lovely village setting, had it been open Monday and Tuesday we would have probably been in three day's in a row? Will definitely return when back in the area.

Lovely traditional pub. We enjoyed a quick refreshing pint after an afternoon walk

We had an excellent meal yesterday.Beautifully presented and delicious. The plat du jour of scampi whitebait etc was exceedingly generous. Way above the normal run of pub food. Thank you.

Good variety of well kept beers and superb food combined with a friendly atmosphere.

I haven't tried the food yet so I can't comment. Liz is very welcoming & very friendly, as are the locals.

Just had a delicious Sunday lunch at The Plough. Food was freshly cooked, piping hot and served by really friendly staff. Thank you.

Absolutely superb roast (possibly the best I’ve had in London to date?) the pork was cooked to absolute perfection. The Bloody Mary was also one of the best I’ve had in a while. Was also impressed by the well poured Guinness.

Visited here with a large group on New Years Eve whilst staying in a local air BnB. Fantastic service, and real hearty home cooked food. The deserts were lovely, and very generous portion sizes. Definitely recommend!

You can be assured you will be welcomed by warm and kind hosts here. The atmosphere is wonderful and the food is exceptional. Jam nights each month are an absolute pleasure to go to and fill me with joy for the coming week.Thanks again

The was a fantastic find for us on way to a funeral, and this place cheered us up!!!! Staff were great, venue was so nice and the food, well speaks for itself but I’ll say it anyway, fantastic!!!

This is such a lovely pub. So welcoming, friendly staff and a great selection of cask ales. They sell local eggs and honey at the bar. The food is also superb.

Great village pub do good food and also have some good beers on draft

Great food, came quickly, lots of outside space for kids.

Glorious evening sitting outside. Delicious food and the service was great bearing in mind it was much busier than expected. They did a great job . Really lovely.

Nice village pub with good food and a relaxing atmosphere

Love this pub . It's probably my favourite and I've been to a few!!! Delicious food lovely garden. Great atmosphere. Friendly helpful staff.

Didn't eat here so can't comment on the food. The beer is great, and the local larger is really good. Great beer garden, friendly Staff, lovely Pub.

Great service and food a must visit for foodies.

Lovely, family-friendly and welcoming community pub. Great for real ales!

Absolutely brilliant. The manager made us very welcome. The food was the best pub grub I’ve had in ages and fine selection of ales. Forget Birchanger Services. Take 20 mins extra and go here instead 😀

Good beer at a good price. Friendly staff and locals too.

Just wow! Everything from start finish was amazing. My fish and chips was cooked to perfection, and the size of it! Chris was more than happy to cater for certain dietary requirements. All the food was incredible, the lady who served us all evening was amazing, and nothing was to much trouble. We enjoyed the garden while the sun was still out, perfect for everyone to enjoy, whether it is for a drink or food. We did wat inside though. Love the decor and the place itself. Will definitely be returning. Very reasonable prices too. Thanks for a lovely evening.

2nd meal here & we weren't disappointed again. Lovely homemade burger & chips & a delicious steak. Large portions too.

Just moved to Newport (from Reading). Been here twice so far. Top food, good ales and great service. Will be coming more often!

Really nice place bit dated but great staff really nice

Lovely food friendly staff quick service.

Really superb! And not expensive for that quality. Most impressed, I'll be back.... Well done!

Superb Sunday roast. Tasty and well presented. Staff welcoming, helpful, efficient. Was a real pleasure to eat here.

Had been told ,was a good place to eat .looked at the menu thought it looked a bit basic and vegetarian. We had 6 different meals. . What a great find . 6 empty plates, 7 satisfied people. Top chef ,excellent staff. Thanks for a lovely meal . Thanks for the candle. Will be back.

The food is outstanding and I have honestly never had better service. Happy to provide vegan options and dealt brilliantly with my son's allergies.

Beautiful traditional pub, with smashing food. One of the staff even managed to do a handstand! absolutely bonkers night.

Came for a Sunday Roast, wow! Lovely food, generous portions plus an expansive wine list and well kept local ales.

Gorgeous place chips are amazing!!! Highly recommend

I very rarely leave reviews but I have just had the tastiest pub meal I’ve had in years Seafood linguini was awesome So tasty Very friendly staff , great atmosphere, efficient and so tasty Thanks so much from the Mcleod’s

Wonderful food. Excellent prices, rather noisy due to a large birthday party. That aside we will certainly visit again

Really lovely pub. The staff are welcoming and helpful. We will visit again when we are next in Debden

Lovely pub with great food and friendly staff

A wonderful country pub. Always welcoming and as a bonus super food. Not to be missed.

First class food, Chris and Liz and the staff are always welcoming

First time there, excellent staff, food and beer

Chris and Liz are fantastic and know exactly how to bring together the community! They’re so passionate about providing top restaurant service and local produce for delicious meals. I’m a very difficult eater with medical conditions leaving me gluten and dairy free, we popped in and the meals didn’t even need adjusting to make them suitable. It’s the first time I’ve eaten out and had a GF DF meal which was full of FLAVOUR & COLOUR! Oh wow I was lucky to have such an amazing meal. The atmosphere from staff makes it cosy village pub, I advise you to drive by a pop in ASAP. Thank you Chris, Liz and the friendly team at the Plough- can’t wait to visit again soon!

Excellent food & drinks. The owners are lovely. 5 Stars.

The food was as good as it could possibly be, first class. The attention to covid safety was second to none.

Food wise one of the best pubs in the area, Chris is an excellent chef and Liz and the other bar staff are always friendly and welcoming. I notice some people have moaned about needing to reserve tables, but they do only have limited space being in a small pub so it is just common sense to book ahead! Also top marks for the takeaway service during the lockdown, food was still great and nice to see you still going in a difficult time

Really great food. Felt safe and staff were excellent, made you feel welcome . Although eating outside a nice atmosphere. Thank you.

Always good and worth a visit for really well kept beers by Liz and fabulous food by Chris

Takeout food and drink available. Always good food and beer.

Excellent meal, friendly staff.

Fantastic food service and beer with a lovely friendly atmosphere

Great atmosphere great staff and fantastic food

Not impressed, arrived for Sunday lunch to meet friends already sitting, refused a meal as too busy and refused a ham sandwich

A warm and friendly welcome. The best steak and ale pie I've ever had and the bread and butter pudding was as light as air. A great night and we will definitely be back. Thank you

Good food and excellent service

One day I'll get there early enough to get a steak!!!!!

Nice country pub great food friendly staff

Great pub with character. Good atmosphere. Well worth a visit.

Service was very friendly but they had no kids menu and nothing basic on the menu it was like looking at a fancy restaurant in a tiny run down pub it just didn't feel right and the prices were a bit high for what they offered in my opinion

Friendly village pub with great atmosphere

Amazing little pub in a rural location. Food is excellent and really Good value. Staff are both welcoming and friendly.

Good food, reasonable prices, great service.

Lovely Sunday lunch, excellent food, great quality home cooked potatoes, puddings, tender meat, home made gravy. Couldn't fault it, and warm friendly and attentive service.

Called in on off chance. Made welcome. Food superb. Will return.

Small, super friendly English pub. A great place for a family lunch - the staff and chef clearly are working hard to please their customers. Good honest food, done well.

Nice traditional pub and friendly with quality grub....

Lovely pub. Great food and beer.

Excellent varied menu featuring tasty, home cooked food at reasonable prices. The staff are very friendly and the outdoor seating area is great in the Summer. The building itself is old and historic and has a lovely feel to it. Would definitely recommend!

Un vrai pub anglais de village, vivant, hyper convivial, cuisine british très convenable.

Sat in their lovely garden with two glasses of coke all afternoon. Fantastic.

Wonderful little pub that serves delicious food amongst a very friendly atmosphere

Friendly service, great food, nice environment. Highly recommended

Excellent local village pub with good service

Fantastic pub for Sunday lunch. The quality of the food, the size of the portions and the quality are all exemplary. The staff are also charming and incredibly helpful. Finally, being a free house, there are some excellent local beers available.

Excellent food, great service and an utterly fantastic atmosphere.

Visited at 7.10 on a January, Saturday evening as a party of three. The tables set for dining were all marked as reserved, but we found a table in the bar area, bought some drinks and sat down. Shortly afterwards I went to the bar and asked for a menu. We were then told that they couldn't serve us food as they were fully booked. Despite us having a small table in the bar area that we could easily eat at. In addition the place was incredibly quiet at that time, not one of the food tables was occupied, so the kitchen cannot have been too busy to prepare some simple meals. Shocking treatment of customers. If you are foolish enough to consider eating here, book ahead, thought personally, pigs will fly before I return.

Great Food, lovely atmosphere, well worth a visit

Fantastic food & friendly, that's all you need to know.
