Three Horseshoes in Braintree

Staff are friendly. A real family atmosphere.

Never a disappointment; always a joy and in awe of what the kitchen can turn out. Looking forward to girlie's lunch later this week.

Absolutely beautiful pub. Staff were very friendly and helpful. The food was well cooked and plentiful. Best meal I have had in a pub for years. Pub is used by locals who are all very friendly and welcoming.

Well , what can I say,,,,FABULOUS...

What a lovely pub, the food was delicious and the staff were brilliant, will definitely be back.

Lovely community run village pub. Lunch was excellent

Such a lovely pub, great atmosphere, quality food and excellent staff. I would highly recommend to everyone and do.

Lovely pub, nice landlady great staff.

Absolutely superb food! Well worth a try! Best to book in advance.

Great food. Definitely recommend

Great little pub, fantastic roast and very friendly staff. Music was a touch loud under the speakers but had a lovely time.

Good food, pleasant staff and environment.

Excellent meal. My wife said the lamb was the best she had ever had. Very friendly staff. All of our dietary needs were met.

We always go to the Three Horseshoes when we are in the area. Had lunch rather than dinner and the fish goujon sandwich was excellent. Service was great as usual.

A very special hidden gem on the Essex,Suffolk border. The food is fantastic.

Just so perfect. We use restaurant for family meals when visiting uk from our home in Spain.

Such an amazing place to eat. The Christmas menu was so good, and everything we had was cooked to perfection. The staff are so friendly and made us feel so welcome. You cannot go wrong with this place.

We had a wonderful meal in this lovely pub, we had food from the Christmas menu. Staff were attentive and remembered what we all were drinking. Lovely to see a great example of a community pub.

Great place,but needs more lights in the car park

Fantastic pub. Go there or be square.

What a lovely find. Have been to this cosy pub a few times and haven't been disappointed so far. The food is exceptional for a pub, the ambience is cosy and welcoming and the staff friendly and efficient. Can't wait to try out their Sunday lunch.

Pretty pub. Beautiful gardens at the back.

I remember when it was one horseshoe!

Just a fabulous place to eat or just have a beer

Excellently cooked fish and chips, with excellent service and choice of drinks, enjoyed by my hubby and I this evening. A traditional pub run by the community - well done and thank you

Fantastic meal on a Saturday evening. I had lamb and my wife had hake - both were cooked perfectly and the scallops we had for starters were also excellent. Really good for pub grub and excellent value. Beer and wine choices also very good. Thoroughly recommend

There was nice spot for Morris Dancing to dance there

Very limited menu .. Fish and chips very disappointing ... Fish batter was soggy and oily ... Chips were limp and not crispy. Burger and fries very good. If you only have a small selection you have to be able to cook all dishes well .. and not being able to do a passable fish and chips is not good :( Friendly staff :)

Lovely food! I had the mushroom and onion tart tatin, followed by Summer pudding. Perfect! There was just the one dish above for vegetarians, which suited me fine.

My son's 21st birthday meal. Best lamb I've ever had! Very friendly and extremely accomodating. Beautiful setting. We had the best night. Thank you.

First time in here since it reopened as a community run pub (attended a small beer festival not long before it closed about 10 years ago I think) lovely little pub in and out, decent beer (had a couple of Mighty Oaks Kings) didn’t eat but will do in the future, just sat in their pleasant garden and enjoyed a little bit of late afternoon sunshine.

Once again a warm welcome at the Three Horseshoes..we had a pre dinner drink relaxing in the beautiful gardens...followed by a delicious meal. we opted for the asparagus and tempura prawns....omg. amazing ..then for main we chose the burger and vegetarian dish..again very tasty and we finally shared a sticky toffee pudding..excellent....all served by a very nice waitress called Megan..thank u all...we had a truly wonderful evening

Lovely pub, very friendly atmosphere, extremely attentive staff, good choice of beers and the food is amazing! I had a steak and it was cooked to perfection 👌 (Vegans catered for too) If you are in the area definitely worth a visit, you won't be disappointed.

A warm welcome and really good food.

Excellent light lunch and very clean. Very friendly bar and kitchen staff.

One of the best village pubs around, amazing food excellent service, would recommend!

Food was more than amazing, best food out for a long time, location great, fantastic staff.

Lovely village community pub with beams throughout. Warm, cosy atmosphere with an intimate restaurant area. The food was exceptional. I had the 8oz rib eye steak which was cooked to perfection while my partner had the hake. Well worth a visit but make sure you book in advance!

What a lovely village community run pub. The food was excellent. Staff friendly, polite, and helpful. Would definitely recommend a visit.

Just had the best meal here..my wife reminded me that I said this last time. Food was just perfect. Duck perfectly cooked. Dauphinoise potato was delicious. Ambience, service perfect!

Community owned pub , I went when restaurant was shut As Chef on holiday, shame people say usually busy ! So left after 2 as quite !! But I love community PUBS ! Xx

Lovely old pub and the food is amazing.

Brilliant food for the birthday party we went to. Plus they do a lovely Sunday Lunch.

A lovely meal in a great pub. I had to post this quirky photo. It is not edited, just a random reflection in the glass 🍷

Lovely pub! Cosy environment with log burners and nice furnishings. Fantastic food with good menu choices. We will be back!

Friendly, good cask ales and a cosy old building. What more could you want?

Only one vegan thing on the menu (a starter) but they made it main sized for me on request and offered to make sauteed potatoes instead of the chips which were cooked in animal fat, and a (very nice) off menu vegan desert without me having to ask. Very pleasant surprise to have a full two course vegan meal at a country pub. The food was very good, and the staff were really friendly and helpful, highly recommended

Lovely and friendly village pub with great food and a beautiful big garden.

Great food, friendly staff: highly recommended!

Food and drinks were lovely and the prices were reasonable. The garden outside sitting area is well shaded and plenty of sits. Lovely friendly staff.

Really friendly and great selection of drinks on offer. Can't wait to try the food too!!

What a fantastic recommendation (Thanks Doug) great location and a beautifully kept premises and garden not to mention great beer and food. I had the Hake and crayfish chowder. I can recommend this as a great place to stop 🍺😎

Excellent roast lamb, nice atmosphere.

Very nice indeed. Food was delicious. Staff were welcoming and very friendly. Clean and tidy, worth a visit Thoroughly recommend.

Lovely friendly pub. Had very nice Sunday lunch then sat in very nice gardens

Stopped for a couple of pint mid bike ride. Nice place and fairly busy for a Wednesday evening. Menu looked interesting and planning to return. Drinks tasted well kept.

Went for lunch on a hot Friday. The welcome, the beers, burgers, coffee and service were great. We sat outside in the garden, loads of room and shade (34º). The place is spotlessly clean. Highly recommend!

Lovely pub, friendly staff and the best chips we’ve ever tasted!!

Nice quiet drink. Food smelt amazing!

After walking about 5 miles until reach half-way through muddy farmlands. Taste of bacon, brie and cranberry on white with coleslaw, small garnish of salad and bit of crisps. Taste perfect no problem and staffs seem friendly. Think will re-visit one day for lunch or dinner. 10/10

Superb food, great ales, friendly reception and service. Highly recommended.

Community pub, well presented, absolutely spotless. Superb fish and chips and good beer. Cannot fault it. Please support them as they open during the week when others are closed! Recommend.

Fabulous hospitality and scrumptious Easter Sunday lunch. Sunny day and gardens were lovely for pre lunch drink. Would definitely recommend

Cosy village pub. Glad to be able to go there again

Lovely Rani always makes you feel welcome. Beer is always of great selection and kept very well. Yet to sample a meal. Lovely place to visit . Would recommend.

Great food and a stunning landlady

Now a community owned pub. And a pub the local community can be very proud of. Excellent menu. I'd challenge anyone not to find something that tickles the taste buds. Staff welcoming. Decor, fresh and relaxing. Plentiful outside space too. Do give it a visit.

Great ambient atmosphere in lovely surroundings. Staff very efficient and friendly. Food is beyond excellent and very reasonable priced

Fantastic food in a lovely environment and very attentive and friendly staff

Even at such an early time of having opened, just 3 weeks ago, this pub has the makings of a total success. The village has waited, patiently for over 6 years, to see the return of this pub. It has come together through the sheer determination and tireless work of Alison and Richard Russell. Many village volunteers have fulfilled every expectation, under the guidance of the aforesaid. Faultless, The food is super, the staff are extremely friendly, encompassed by an ambient surround. ENJOY!!

Recently re opened under new management. We only visited for drinks and nibbles after a 2 hour footpath wakj. It was very welcoming to see the entrance door was OPEN! Friendly staff and a good selection of drinks and snacks. The food menu looked very tempting
