Wildens Restaurant in Braintree

What a hidden gem !! A wonderful little restaurant, the staff were lovely, attentive and nothing was too much trouble. The choice of food would cater for almost everyone - we both opted for curry which was excellent As for the puddings - the bread and butter pudding & crème brulee were our choices - highly recommended. Lee was polite / friendly answered all our questions. We would definitely recommend this restaurant - 10/10

Fantastic sunday lunch we had turkey roast plenty of vegetables Lovely staff and service Great quality food and portions appropriate

The breakfast was lovely .. and Alison and Lee was very friendly and helpful and so was all the staff that we see.. you will always have a first class meal and service and a lovely welcome at Weavers ...

Excellent Club with good food and very friendly service. Much enjoyed the experience. Clearly a very popular place…understandably so.

A hidden gem. We needed a function room near Braintree to celebrate my parents 60th wedding anniversary, and came across the Weavers restaurant website. We were delighted with the beautifully set up, large room which easily accommodated 19 of us (including 2 wheelchairs). The staff could not have been more friendly, helpful or accommodating and the food was delicious and plentiful. We were allowed access to the room over an hour before the event and had the room until 5.30pm. Our special day was made even more special and exceeded all expectations. Many thanks Lee, Shelley and all your staff.

Great food and great service. Kirsty was very welcoming and gave some great advice about the food! There were so many gluten free options available.

This is an amazing place in Bocking social club, Weavers is open to members of the public. You do not need to be a member to visit. This is an amazing gem; food is delicious, great portions, great flavours. Such excellent value. We visit here regularly, the staff are lovely, great service and really get to know you. Lee and Alison are an asset to Weavers. Cannot fault this restaurant.

This was our first visit to Weavers. We found the restaurant very relaxing and the service provided by Shelley was first class. Shelley was very attentive to all our needs and each time served us with a smile. The food was freshly prepared and cooked and really enjoyable. Will we go back, most definitely.

Excellent service delicious food and more importantly lovely and friendly staff look forward to coming back very soon

Great food and attentive service from Lee. We had considered going for 3 courses but the portions were very generous and a main course and desert easily filled us up. We will definitely be back, in fact we’ve already booked and it was so good we joined the social club next door!!

Last minute decision to have lunch out, the main restaurant was busy there was a large group booked in, but we were seated in the bar area. We all had the small plate meal's, everything was hot, nicely presented and tasted great. Staff were attentive and helpful, drink's reasonable price.

Came for Mother’s Day and the whole family loved it! We all had three courses and the lamb was a big hit with my mum who said it was melt in the mouth! I had the Cajun prawns, sirloin of beef followed by the pavlova! All truly delicious…. Service from the team was great, made us all feel really special and at home. Thank you Weavers we will def be coming again soon!

It was alright, the service was great the people were lovley and the atmosphere was nice. The food however wasn't. The meat was very rare and they didn't even ask how I wanted it. It was very chewy and the brownie I had for dessert was cold and hard. Overall service was great but food wasn't.

14 of us went for a Mother’s Day meal today. Great food, great service and lovely friendly staff. Would recommend and will certainly be going back

Mother's Day Menu - the food was delicious and the service as always outstanding. An excellent restaurant where we are always made to feel very welcome. Highly recommended.

Just had my mums 80th Birthday here - was absolutely great, food and service was top class - special thanks to Shelley and all the staff for making it a special afternoon for us all, they could not do enough for us - mum had a great time as did we all xxx thank you xx

Just go here! We decided to have a “fizz friday” bottle for only £10! To wash down a Seafood platter which they made from one person into a sharer! It was delicious with homemade Tartare Sauce! Shelley was our waitress, she made our visit so welcoming, with great service and chat. Thank you so much. The place was full with Weavers catering for a wake in the bar area but managed to fit us in, in the main restaurant which was quieter but pretty much full as well, thats how popular this place is and all at reasonable prices.

Lovely service by Shelly and the food was delicious! Friendly atmosphere and made to feel very welcome. We came for a late lunch and left full!

Absolutely amazing food & service, lovely atmosphere. Could not fault any part, amazing quality for the price you pay, very polite staff and very efficient! I could go on and on, this restaurant is the best in Braintree all around!

Came here for our Valentine’s Day meal and we could not fault a thing. Such a warm welcome from Alison & Lee which made us feel immediately at home. The food was exceptional, clearly cooked fresh to order and beautifully presented. Overall we could not have wished for more - we will definitely be back!

Lovely meal, great tasty properly cooked food, staff and atmosphere. The hidden gem at Bocking continues to deliver as always

The food was amazing, looked amazing, tasted amazing - definitely recommend the prawn and crayfish salad! Very reasonable prices. Great service and talented chefs. Will definitely be going back there again. Well done.

I visited today with the family, we booked a Sunday lunch four adults, two children. Two vegetarians and one coeliac. On arrival my daughter’s menu was highlighted with what she could have and she was made to feel special. The food was piping hot, plentiful and so tasty. I loved my vegetable pot pie, and the home made Yorkshire puddings were enormous. The desserts well what can I say the fudge cake looked amazing, I had the passion fruit cheesecake it was the perfect combination the best cheesecake I have had in a long time. The staff couldn’t have been more helpful, friendly and kind.

Food was amazing lots of choice on the menu. The service was great and very friendly they made you feel really welcome. definitely be visiting again

A lovely Sunday lunch today, great service food was good and plenty of vegetables. Dessert was really nice I had syrup sponge Definitely go back well done

A group of 34 people who own classic TR cars. We meet up for sunday lunch a few times a year. I think the meal we had on Sunday was one of the best. Food and presentation excellant. Staff efficient and very professional. Looking forward very much to my xmas meal with a group of ladies from my bowls club. Last year was excellant.

Great meal and excellent service. Lovely Sunday roast and all very reasonably priced. Great portions too. Will be back again

Best Sunday Roast ever! Weavers really is a hidden gem… amazing food, great, friendly service…. I really can’t recommend their Sunday roast enough. Really reasonable prices too.

They call this Bocking’s best kept secret, but it’s really time the world knew about Weavers. My son called his rack of ribs “the best meal of my life,” my wife thoroughly enjoyed her risotto, and my fish bouillabaise was superb. The desserts, passion fruit cheesecake and Sticky Toffee Pudding, were first class. It’s lovely. Go along. And don’t keep it to yourself!

Weavers never disappoint. The food was wonderful. The waiter very knowledgeable. I love the fact that there were several Vegan options all very different from the chain restaurants, there was even Vegan Tapas. The vegan dessert was amazing, waffle covered with fresh summer berries and couli served with Vegan strawberry ice cream - very special.

We are regular diners at this gem of a restaurant but the new winter menu is on a different level. My husband and I visited the day the menu was launched and was simply outstanding. I had the liver and bacon and my husband had...

Just enjoyed another fabulous meal at this little gem of a place! Fantastic food and great service. Highly recommend

Absolutely spectacular food and service guaranteed, we are regular visitors of Weavers which is part of Bocking Club but the good thing to remember is “You Don’t Need To Be Members” to dine there.

Went here for lunch recently. 2 prawn and crayfish baguettes and a couple of drinks. Delicious as usual. Had small problem with one of the meals but all sorted out there and then with no hassle. Definitely will return. Thank you so much.

Not the first visit and won’t be the last. Three people had three courses and they were all excellent. Lee served us and was efficient, attentive all with a smile!
