The Plough and Harrow in Waltham Forest

We enjoyed the plaice and chips with was as good as could be, faultless, in fact. This was followed by apple crumble and ice cream with was very good. The service was good and friendly.

excellent meal ,big portions. large outdoor dining area.

Would have given five stars if it wasn't for the state of the carpet throughout the pub it was absolutely filthy and disgusting for God's sake get it cleaned or replaced it was horrible the food was very good the service was very good everything else was fantastic but when you walk in and see this disgusting stain ridden carpet it puts people off

The food was excellent with the exception of the dessert. I had the lemon meringue pie which was very heavy - perhaps there was too much gelatin in the lemon layer and the meringue was solid too! Poor quality ice cream.

Enjoyable visit overall and food was good, Paticularly the mushroom starter. We came as a group of four and a baby to celebrate a birthday. There wasn’t much space for the pram - tables quite close together and our table was up a few steps, but we managed. We felt a bit rushed as we had booked for 1pm and were unaware that the carvery closed at 2pm - we were spoken to by a member of staff and it came across a little rude. We had a lovely meal overall - the bar staff were particularly friendly and helpful which made it a lovely experience. Menu items were pricier than expected as our friends had been before and the prices had significantly increased from what they remembered for the same meals. That being said, there was a varied set menu option for a smaller budget. Overall pleased with our visit and would likely visit again for a special occasion.

Most of the meal was very good in our group of 5 however twice my burger came out dry and/or overcooked. Would not recommend the burgers however everything else was lovely.

This was my first visit, had a table booked for 12 noon but on arrival at 11.55 the doors were still locked, when eventually the doors were opened we were met by a rather frosty reception from a member of staff who I later learned was the Duty Manager. Having not been before I wasn’t aware of how the restaurant worked, whether table service or order at the bar. The woman was blunt & unfriendly even when my 7yr old son said “thank you” for his drink she showed no interest but simply ignored him. I said thank you for our drinks but still no smile or warmth from the woman whatsoever, this made me feel very uncomfortable before even ordering food, I even considered going elsewhere. Thankfully the rest of our visit was pleasant, I ordered food with a different member of staff & the waiting staff were friendly. The food was good & plenty of it. This is clearly a very popular place & I would definitely recommend booking! A good place with a varied menu, the Carvery looks very good too, it’s unfortunate that one member of Staff can have such a negative effect on Customers.

We booked a table for three. It was well located in the pub and two of us chose from the menu whilst the third had a carvery. The pub is noted for its carvery which is very good. The menu meals were also very good with large portions. The staff were very pleasant and made the visit enjoyable.

Great carvery. Have eaten here several times before but this time the carvery queue was very long (we queued for nearly 15 minutes). Only one person carving and he wasn't very speedy. By the time we got to the carvery the turkey, beef and pork joints were almost gone so we ended up with the less than perfect bits from the ends of the joints, including very fatty bits (they couldn't be called slices) of turkey. They didn't seem to be replenishing the vegetables quickly enough - many of them were down to the dregs and didn't look at all appetising. Very disappointing because it's usually very good.

We regularly attend the Plough & Harrow and this visit was to the usual high standard in every way. In our opinion, the best Carvery in Worcestershire.

We went for mid week carvery which was really nice and reasonably priced but we had 2 drinks, a pint and a prosecco and the drinks round came to £12.95!

Very much somewhere for a traditional family meal. The food was superb, and plenty of it. We very much enjoyed our trip and were really surprised how little it cost

Very good, clean & tidy, great lunch, nice setting. PERFECT.

Went for lunch and often do. Had carvery which as always was fantastic. Lovely tender beef that melted in the mouth. Spotted a man on a nearby table having a salad... Wow it looked fab. Will definitely try the salad next time. No space for desert on this occasion but they put my choice of strawberry cheesecake in a plastic tub to take away and I had it later... Was absolutely lovely. Would recommend and often do. I have a shop in Upton upon severn and when asked for recommendations for lunch and I always send here if it's carvery they want. Best around.

Usual very excellent carvery, friendly and helpful services and value for money.

Great value for money! Nice to see a decent portion size these days that isn’t at a 2 for 1. The carvery was lovely and fresh, not like other places where you could break your tooth on the veg because it’s been sat there too long. Very impressed and often come here

Excellent , food hot and freshly cooked and reasonably priced. Staff very professional and friendly. Lovely atmosphere.will visit again

We were going out to lunch with friends and my neighbour suggested The Plough and Harrow. I looked it up on line and noted the Senior Citizens lunchtime deal which looked extremely good value and indeed it was. We all decided on the carvery, a choice of three meats and so many vegetables to choose from. There was a good display of desserts also. It was a lovely lunch, good surroundings and we will certainly be back.

food was great friendly staff pleasant atmosphere very pleased

Fantastic food, excellent service -as always !

Really enjoyed our meal here, booked on-line and table ready on arrival, not too busy but that was more because there were quite a few people dining outside. Ordered at the bar and food arrived in appropriate time, we both ordered the steak which was cooked to our liking. We would both use this restaurant again & I've got a birthday coming up :)

Food came in good time - portions were very good for the price, perhaps too big for me but can’t complain. Very chilled and had a cosy atmosphere - was not busy when we went but I preferred that to it being heaving! Good range of meals on offer, didn’t feel stuck for choice, would have preferred a dessert menu as we kept having to go back and fourth from the bar but if their desserts change frequently then it’s understandable. Overall would recommend.

Great welcome. Nice atmosphere. Delicious food at great prices. Recommend.

Lovely carvery, best around locally ! Great value for money within an attractive pub/ restaurant.

This restaurant is at an approx midway point for our four friends and myself and husband. We love to meet at the Plough for this reason, the food is excellent, we had a mix of the very good carvery and from the extensive menu. We were seated at a oval table with plenty of leg room. The restaurant was busy but the dining areas are set out in such a way that you do not feel you are ‘on top’ of each other. The service we had was great, car park extensive, drinks varied and served to our exact requirements. The sweets are very good, with ice cream, custard or cream to accompany. Would recommend

The food was first class yet again .only thing I would critique is and this is the first time since I have been going is we had to wait at the carvery for the chef to come and serve the meat and it was more than 5 mins . Not good to keep customers waiting . Obscene been told there isa change of ownship if this is correct then they need to keep the first class service that has always been been delivered at the Plough and Harrow or word will get round and their sales will suffer abd that would be a shame .Otherwise first class in every other aspect

Excellent carvery which provided very good roast beef, very reasonable prices and ample car parking.

Only realised when we got the our meal the table 13) was right by the toilet entrance which somewhat spoiled the ambience but apart from that the main course was good but the pudding was below average

Whenever we eat at the Plough & Harrow, the food, and in particular, the carvery is of a consistently high standard. The staff are always welcoming and friendly. Good food, well served at a good price.

We came for ameal with our daughter, husband & 7 & 5 yr olds. Your carvery is the best we have had, with a huge selection of lovely fresh veg. Your desserts are to die for. Sadly I was too full to order one, but the rest of the family Said they were fab.

Fantastic food, friendly staff and quick service - highly recommended

Eaten hear before and always good. Pleased to see good information on Gluten Free foods , made gluten free gravy especially for me ! Very impressed

Food was first class as usual as I have been many times but it was a first for my friend who said. She would be going again .lovely atmosphere and prices very good.if I had to choose something which to mark down on was it was a touch dark where we were sat could do with some extra lights

Excellent food and friendly service very good value for money will be visiting again soon

Excellent food and service. Good value for money.Wide menu choices, freshly prepared meats, poultry and vegetables.

I have eaten at the Plough and Harrow on many occasions with family and friends. The food has been consistently very good especially the Carvery and excellent value for money. The staff are always attentive and pleasant. It is a good pub.

We frequently dine at the Plough & Harrow and as always , were not disappointed with this visit. The warm welcome, the large choice, the service and the quality of food was excellent. We are booked via Open Table for a party of 6 on Thursday this week and very much looking forward to it. Thank you.

Table reserved and ready. Very helpful staff. Food excellent and in plenty. The bill was very exceptable. Over all a pleasant lunchtime was had by my wife and I. Thank you.

Great experience. Service was great and they kept the carvery open a bit longer for us as we arrived just as they were about to close. They even brought out some fresh veg. Two of us had carvery,one fish and chips,one pie and chips and one gammon and chips. All the food was fabulous. Would thoroughly recommend and great value.

Booked table on line.. easy Very good menu also a specials board.. we both opted for starters which were both excellent and served very timely ... my partner opted for the carvery which was incredible and i opted for steak with the surf and turf option ... perfectly cooked and pleny of it. Definitely will return again ... standards are always high and staff very pleasant .

Once again excellent meal. Had a change from the carvery this time and the steak was superb.

Never had a bad meal here...although we always have a carvery. One of the best!!!

I treated my Nan and Grandad to a meal for their anniversary. The food was outstanding, along with the friendly service of all your staff. Atmosphere is always lively, and a nice layout all around.

Very good food with excellent service good value and pleasant to visit.

We love the Plough and Harrow. Very good food and very good service. Would highly recommend. Don't think you will be disappointed.

Lovely meal ,lovely staff , great location, I will be returning to the plough and Harrow

Excellent as usual have never been disappointed yet! One small criticism tho when waiting staff drop cutlery on the floor it should be removed or cleaned before going back on the table

First class service lovely food plenty of choice good value set meals as well as a last Carte. The best vegetables for a carvery that we have ever eaten consistently excellent .

Been a few times now, however the carvery meal has definitely gone up a major level.<br />Would definitely say &#039;best carvery in Worcs&#039; is 100% accurate.<br />Well done to all at Plough &amp; Harrow.

Superb,food was excellent as usual. Great value carvery, thoroughly recommend but you must book

First class carvery with an amazing array of vegetables

Very good as usual, unfortunately some of the veg wasn&#039;t up to your usual standard, with over burnt parsnips and undercooked broccoli. We will still be going back tho.

In my families opinion the Plough and Harrow does the best carvery around! Food is always lovely and hot and plenty of choice too!

A popular pub restaurant serving generous portions of carvery or al a carte food. Helpful friendly staff and comfortable surroundings.

Ideal to meet friends and family who live within a 10 to 15 mike radius. Plenty of parking, clean toilets and bar. Restaurant has a couple of areas with steps, just one or two steps, but several tables for anyone with mobility issues, or have a wheelchair or walking aid.<br /><br />The carvery is gorgeous, usually beef and turkey available, peas, carrots, broccoli, leeks, cabbage, roasties, cauli cheese, swede mash, potatoes in skins, red cabbage, garlic pots, all these or variations, but never less of a choice.<br /><br />Staff very accommodating, pleasant and hard working. <br /><br />Ran out of straws on Monday when we were there! More straws needed please

Served quite promptly but service was a little peremptory-nobody came to ask if everything was OK (which it happened to be).Beef was beautifully tender but not very flavoursome No room left for dessert-which we know from past experience that they&#039;re happy to &#039;box up&#039; to take home. Chef helpful in that he gave us scraps for the dog to take home (which she thoroughly enjoyed).

Lovely welcome when we arrived.<br />Friendly smiley staff.<br />Carvery was superb, they even catered for my fussy eater son, nothing was to much trouble.<br />As a family we all had a wonder Saturday get together and we will be returning.<br />Thank you to all that was on duty Saturday

Once again a very good extremely reasonably priced meal. Staff were efficient and friendly and served with a smile.

Very good as usual, staff were friendly and very proficient.

Was recommended but was quite disappointed, staff quite rude and oap had smaller plates and limited to deserts

We went here for a ladies&#039; get together on a Saturday evening and really enjoyed the food. The vegetable selection at the car very was excellent and we were given plenty of meat. Our only caveat was that the Yorkshire puddings were a little small and a little tough. We would go again.

The meal itself was nice but the staff let the place down the service was not the best with one of the side dishes and sauces coming at least 5 mins after and no apologies and when we went there was no atmosphere in the place.

Have been on many occasions, with family and friends. We normally have the carvery which is outstanding 3-4 meats and no end of vegetables. If you have room they do a very good selection of sweets.

Having travelled from Shropshire to meet friends you came highly recommend and we were not disappointed, although there was only 1 person serving at the bar and there was a coach load of people just arrived,so we had a long wait.Food excellent and plenty of it .

Brilliant as always, food very good, hot and plentiful

Excellent value for your money and the vegetables are very well presented 😉

The food was fresh, tasty, plentiful and really good value for money.

Very friendly man who greeted us and went out of his way to be helpful to myself and my elderly parents. Cheerful greeting at the buffet, lovely food , well cooked and presented . Good choice of puddings even for seniors menu 😀

Having visited The Plough &amp; Harrow on numerous occasions we always found it 1st class.<br />But our visit on Thursday the 27th for the carvery was very disappointing. The beef and the pork was very Dry and not very warm. The parsnips were hard and dried up, this applied to the roast potatoes as well. Overall it was not up to your usual standard.<br />Let&#039;s hope the next time we visit things will be back to normal.

Carvery was excellent, except that I forgot to order a kids meal for my 10 year old daughter so food was wasted

Excellent carvery best beef had in ages nom nom nom

Excellent Carvery, I came with my daughter who enjoyed the garden too. Will definitely come again, and soon!

we came this time because it was my birthday and it was everything I expected of the Plough and Harrow the food was delicious as usual and the staff are always friendly we have been coming here for over two years now and it beat everywhere we have been highly recommend it to everyone whatever the occasion

I took my 89 year old Mum here just for a few hours out. She had Brie starter and Salmon in Dill Sauce and she thoroughly enjoyed it. Easy to get to, plenty of parking and very friendly staff.

Met up with friends for a Saturday night meal, the pub was busy but the atmosphere was relaxed and although we waited for a while, I&#039;m sure we could have got quicker service had we asked. The food as ever was exceptional, we all had exactly what we wanted, the food was cooked to perfection, plenty of choice from the carvery and couldn&#039;t fault anything. A superb night, easily my favourite venue for a meal out. Shame it&#039;s nearly an hour to get too, i would be there twice a week if I lived close by!

We have been before and it was very good. Thought we&#039;d try it again for lunch . There was a good choice of roasts and in my opinion many more out of the ordinary veg than you would normally see on other buffets. Just one small criticism was that the roadies were a bit hard and dry. Well worth the 40 minute drive and will go again.

As always staff very friendly and quick. Best pub in the district.

The Meal up the expected very high standard and served by very friendly and attentive staff.

My self and my wife decided have a meal out, bare in mind that wife is a professional chef. We had the garlic prawns for starters, a little pricey for what it was but very nice. We both chose the rump steak, 16oz and 8oz medium rare. Mine the 16oz was perfect with all the timings and good value 11/10 !. My wife&#039;s was not so good, was not sealed and in her opinion had been defrosted in a microwave so not so good, 7/10. We will give it another go. Did not try the puddings, next time😊. Hope to make it 5 stars next time ?

Something&#039;s gone wrong here!<br />I&#039;ve always rated this the best carvery in the Worcester area, so when we had friends coming for the weekend this is where I took them, never again!<br /><br />I know it was an extremely hot day, all the doors were open but it was so uncomfortable!<br />Needed fans.<br /><br />First, got a drink wrong, no buggy on its own, but then Coke was flat, no one to change gas.<br />Brought renewed Coke to table, still flat!<br />The till wouldn&#039;t work to print carvery tickets, eventually wrote them out.<br /><br />The meat was nice, the roast potatoes were awful! Couldn&#039;t cut through them, very hard leathery outside . Really hard to chew, tasted horrible. I would say they were the days before, reheated/fried, frozen oven potatoes. Not all fresh veg like it used to be.<br />The roast parsnips, also oven ready, were actually black &amp; burnt to a crisp! Some were a little better, not black all over, but they didn&#039;t even bother to pick out the badly burnt ones.<br />The food at best was warm!<br />I wouldn&#039;t serve this at home! Let alone charge for it!!!<br /><br />The food was fine a couple of months ago, goodness knows what&#039;s happened to it!<br />They did give us our money back, we hardly ate it.<br /><br />Also, when I looked on line the next day, they were closed on Sunday???<br />Whose ever heard of a carvery being closed on a Sunday???

Este es el segundo año consecutivo que he estado cerca de este pub cuando trabajaba en el local Olimpia.

very good as usual. Puts a lot of other eateries to shame. Its&#039; nice to take family and friends out to eat and know you can guarantee everything about the place.

Excellent Carvery as always. Huge selection of vegetables to compliment excellently cooked meats.

Having visited before we knew what to expect. An excellent carvery and a La Carte menu to suit everyone&#039;s taste plus a specials board.<br />We were celebrating a friends birthday and thought of this place first. It was their first visit and I think they were impressed. We have visited the Royal Oak at Broadwas (your sister establishment on many occasions) so we know that the quality will be top notch.<br />We really enjoyed our lunch and look forward to visiting again soon

Could not fault the cavery plenty of meat plenty of choice with potatoes and veg. Chef and bar staff very pleasant. Highly recommend plus nice place to sit outside and a good play area if you have children

Good food, Friendly staff, relaxed atmosphere. A great meal out with the family.

Booked to take my Grandad for a birthday meal. Very impressed with the burger I ordered and my Grandad was very happy with his steak. I&#039;ve never had an issue with the food and the staff are friendly and helpful.

We took two young friends out for a meal and they recommended the Plough and Harrow at Drakes Broughton. It was a good recommendation. I gather that there is a lot of competition in the area between carvers, and this place excels.<br />We mostly had beef. The young lady had pork and she ate every scrap! My wife and I did not manage anything like all, which showed how big the portions were. Everything was cooked all with a great selection of vegetables.<br />The price was quite reasonable too.

Always great food. Love the roast. warm and cosy pub. Staff always friendly and welcoming.

The Plough and Harrow is what I would describe as a &quot;food factory&quot;. It&#039;s target customer seems to be those people looking for an inexpensive, no frills, plate full of food. It&#039;s a &quot;find your own table and order at the bar&quot; type country pub. The staff were friendly but clearly too busy to provide any form of personal service. The food was tasty but far to much of it on my plate. ( a good complaint for some). As a one off visit it was ok but my experience gave me no reason for a return visit.

un pub grande y grande, a pesar de su decoración sencilla en comparación con otros brunchs de cuchara húmeda, está sirviendo en su mayoría locales que lo convierte en un lugar especial para las personas que no son del Reino Unido.

Tuve que esperar demasiado, incluso un lunes por la noche, aunque era el club del lunes para ser atendido, después de hablar con los lugareños dijeron que nunca había suficiente personal del bar, las mesas se dejaron demasiado tiempo antes de que se limpiaran las copas y no vimos Alguien limpie una mesa, la comida estaba bien, pero hemos tenido mejores en otros pubs wetherspoon.

good friendly service, excellent food at affordable prices . Well worth the visit as always

The Plough and Harrow is a very successful Carvery, boasting the ultimate Carvery, with many choices of Vegetable and Meats, all freshly prepared they also have a none carvery menu.

lovely meal, felt welcome, staff polite, food fabulous

I have visited The Plough &amp; Arrow on a few different occasions and have always recieved sutable service. As for the food that has always been tasty &amp; good value for money

excellent food quick service would recommend for a good meal

we had a very good meal at this local pub with our friends, only one observations was that the carvery food was not very hot, and went cold very quickly, even so we all felt it was a good menu for any future get together of us all, apart from this one minor point we had a good time, the staff were excellent and attentive to our requirements through out our lunch, hope fully we will visit again later in the year

We didn&#039;t opt for the carvery and chose off the menu. My husband had fish and chips good portion size. I chose rib eye steak which was cooked to my liking and very tasty however the onion rings were stone cold and I did tell the waiter and fresh ones were brought but by then I had finished my meal. Overall the meal was good. What lets the place down is they seem more interested in ramming as many people in as they can and the tables are very close together expecially at the open fire side of the restaurant. I think they could have done with a couple more staff too.

Excellent value, carvery is one of the best I have been to, hard to beat.<br /><br />Good for a mid week dinner , family friendly .
