Willow in Harlow - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Good pub, cheap drinks via the sports app and nice staff. Food looks good and cheap too, bene here multiple times now

Different life bands week and weekends also football and sports pleasant atmosphere also have outside seating garden also pool tables and darts

Love this place always welcoming

Great service! Each member of staff always make you feel welcome. Family friendly (and dogs) Food is tasty, great price too Everywhere is clean 10/10

I had booked elsewhere,but with roadworks in area,I walked past the pub this morning walking my dog. Looked on website once home,showed to my friend that I meet up every couple of weeks for a meal,we both agreed try this place. What a find! I'm not a pub fan,which is my reason for atmosphere rating,but spoke to manager (David) and chef (Darren) and both were nice and polite. My friend and I had two mains from part of menu,and it came to £11.49.....both on menu separately would cost £15.98,so two of us,having a meal each,with a drink each....under £20. Have booked again in couple of weeks.

First visit in over 30 years Food was good value. It was clean inc the toilets Service was very good and friendly Atmosphere : on a different day it could have been different. It was about 5:30pm so not late and one table were 'well on their way'. Really loud and every other word was swearing. Not great when you have kids with you.

An amazing turkey roast dinner at such great prices, meal for 2 plus drinks under £20 total is fantastic… would highly recommend this place

Great pub. Friendly atmosphere. Our food was excellent, plentiful and very affordable.

Sports pub with 3large TV screens ,very busy when football is on

Beautfull pub , Nice place for u and your family

Been here a few times, surprisingly nice welcome from the security men at the door, the drinks are well priced the food is good pub grub and the entertainment is always good here as well. The lady with the black hair i think she said her name was Joe, so helpful and a good sense of humour as well. We will.be coming back again.

Great place for a quite drink or food.

I love adore the beautiful staff always polite couldn’t do more please get them a pay green king raise thank you love you all with my heart ❤️ 🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻

Good atmosphere when the sounds up for the Football. Packed for remembrance Sunday.

Watched the football earlier and really good quick service and decent prices

Lovely food tbh bar staff friendly welcoming good atmosphere for the footy

Came here with my 93 year old Mum for lunch midweek and we received some of the best service and good food at great value I've had for a very long time. The landlady was very attentive and super helpful. Looking forward already to our next visit.

This was my first visit and it will not be my last. I was very impressed with the service and the food was fabulous

Landlady absolutely amazing. Food was really good got two massive meals for 11 pound!

Nice cheap food lovely atmosphere good manager

If you want a local friendly pub that's the place for you,plus is dog friendly 😁👍

Appallingly bad service. Asked got salad with no dressing due to allergies, got given dressing. Burger was burnt and chewy. Fajita was absolutely tiny despite server saying that it would be large. Food also took far too long. Do not bother coming here.

We waited an hour for 2 roast dinners and a burger, the burger was burnt so much hubby could only eat the center, beef roast dinner was OK but the turkey one was awful didn't taste anything like turkey with a lot of fatty rind hanging off, pigs in blanket didn't looked properly sausages were white, Yorkshire pudding was soggy hence didn't eat any of it. Definitely won't be going back.

All the staff are lovely. The food was brilliant

We saw a Michael Jackson tribute act and met with some really lovely friends. We had a great afternoon.

Love the staff, lovely range of everything I belive.

Cheap and cheerful . All the footy plus 10% off your drinks during any televised sporting event if you have the app. Food is fantastic. Staff are also really nice. Can't say fairer than that!!

Lovely food at a good price. Will be coming back again, thank you.

I visited for a friend's baby shower, and she had a section reserved. Staff were very friendly, pub clean tidy. Food was also organised by the pub, little buffet. Delicious party food. Prices of drink are reasonable compared to other pubs in Harlow. Will defo visit again. :)

The atmosphere is calming and the food was served to a high standard of quality. Compliments to the chef Darron.

Nice pub, good selection of drinks and food, nice interior and outside space, friendly staff.

Excelente atmosphere!!! Nice staff!!! Fun time

St Patrick's day so was a bit busy but good atmosphere and good food with friendly service

The service was extremely poor, we waited about an hour and half for our food which didn't come out together and arrived to us barely warm. And three of us out of eight got food poisoning from the meals we had. A regular customer told us that the worst cook is on that night and that its one of the owners who was cooking. An investigation is currently ongoing over this

Amazing staff. Order food 45 mins before hand. It will be worth the wait. Always a welcoming atmosphere. Check footie games as a popular venue for watching games.

We come once a month for a get together lunch. Nice place, nice staff but apparently in over 6 months they still havent fixed the coffee machine! Thanks for the reply David, but I've asked for coffee every month since last summer, and the reply has always been sorry it isn't fixed yet, do you want instant ?

Great Sunday Roast and the staff are always so welcoming and friendly

Went for the Wednesday quiz....Staff very friendly.

Just had Christmas dinner there, and I can say it was worth every penny. Big plates, lots of food. Happy and friendly staff.

Great festive meal with family and friends, food very good, service and atmosphere great too

The food is amazing, just had double burger, only cost £8.99, was cooked to perfection. The chef Darren even came to our table to make sure we were happy. Excellent customer service throughout. Just found my new local

What a fantastic friendly pub. Great atmosphere for the football, two great bar staff on tonight, Lisa and Sophie, friendly smiles and happy chat. Ate a fantastic burger very reasonably priced with a jolly chef called Darren who obviously enjoys his job! My new favourite pub in Harlow!!!

This place has all the bases covered with restaurant area, 2 pool tables, large selection of draft drinks & cocktails, an outside seating area front & back, & screens for live sport. Green King have it sorted for sure.

Went in early on a Saturday evening. The first four items that I asked for on the menu were not available. Ended up settling for something neither of us wanted and neither dish was anything spectacular. Perhaps we just caught them on a bad day. 🤔

Great nice family pub enjoyed watching the football as well

Amazing food. Cheap drinks. Went above an beyond to make my sisters special occasion perfect.

Had a lovely Sunday roast which was massive!! It was delicious and meat was so tender. Will be bringing my family back again. Chef amazing and waiting staff very helpful. 10 out of 10

Really nice pub.. Good friendly staff..

Very nice pub! For launch our have some drinks with friends! Also the security on weekends top 10, the guys are very professional, and they do they best to avoid any issues. Recommended.

Super friendly staff, great event nights all week. Great atmosphere and a brilliant selection of drinks. The food is really nice as well! Doesn't seem too busy but even if it is, the people are great. Good vibes. Worth it..

Great food although a little slow on service.

Having been to the Willow many times for lunch l have always been happy with both the service and food. Tonight l decided to take my little grandaughter here for dinner and what a dissapointment it was. My grandaughter ordered beef lasagna which came with salad and garlic bread and l ordered fish and chips without peas. The lasagna was overcooked and the portion small while the garlic bread was black, l had to ask for the bread to be changed. My fish was also very overcooked on the outside and oozing oil every time l cut it, it also had peas underneathc (good job l am not allergic to them) There were not many patrons there and l didn't see any other food being served so the kitchen wasn't busy. After waiting well over half an hour for our burnt offerings l will think twice before going back again for dinner. The only plus side to this encounter was the server who was very polite and pleasant.

Really great atmosphere and really friendly staff

I'm new in town, and exploring the local pubs in the area, i found the staff at 'The Willow' to be very welcoming, and professional. This has been one of my top 3 pubs to visit for a few beers after work to help unwind from a busy day. At least it was, until I went there for my first time in the evening, and unfortunately had a different experience from overzealous security men Badgering me while I'm trying to have a quiet pint and reading an article on my phone. They were clearly intent, and successful in creating an uncomfortable atmosphere . I've Never experienced anything quite like this before. I became sufficiently uncomfortable, and soon left. The British guy was ok, but the others guys were like communist border guards, treating me at least, with great suspicion.. I am a fan of Greene king pubs but what happened was ridiculous so unfortunately I won't be going back there. Shame because some of the female bar staff were really nice.

Great staff, cheap drinks , lovely food. Cant fault it.

Came to the willow after visiting friends in harlow, was greeted and welcomed by Rhiannon, her service was brilliant and made us all feel very welcome we sat outside in the garden also food was 🥘 a great value for money and the drinks are so cheap will dofo recommend this pub to all my friends and family!

My favorite pub, staff do an excellent job. Food is good.

The willow at lunch time was good. The bar staff are lovely. The card machine was not working so they set me up a tab. Had plenty of cider as I lost my best friend on the 30 June my dad Albert so had just a few ciders for my dad. He would have been 85 on 31st of this month. The food is very good my wife and I shared the burger stack and the sharer platter. It was very good and tasty and very good value. A few more beers with an old work friend and his lady friend was laughter and tears talking about dad. Both my friends had worked with my dad the same as I had.i popped out and nipped to Sainsbury's about 150 yards away to the cash point then back to The willow to settle my tab. There's disabled parking plus plenty more and no steps into the Willow. Out the back theres plenty of tables and bench seats where children out the back plq1qq1qqw1We had our dog with us and he was really welcomed. This was our 2nd time in The Willow this year with the same friends. I will.being going back many more times to come. Willow I can't wait. Thank you for letting me run up a tab and Your hard work and people skills. ... cu soon Mark

Live sports , decent kichen , cheap drinks

Nice pub but a little expensive. Also had some Saturday live music on today which is an extra treat.

Very Very Very goood meal......like home!

I have been in this pub a few times over the years and it’s always been a great service, and their cocktail pitchers are amazing. I’ve been in recently and was served by a lovely lady called Lisa she was so helpful and made us feel right at home. We also tried a few bits from the food menu and everything was just incredible!

The chicken-less katsu curry was amazing. Service was very attentive. Will definitely be going back again.

Popped in for quick beer was ok

Took almost an hour just to get 2 burgers and a portion of chips. There was hardly anyone else in the pub! The burger was nice though, but that doesn't detract from the huge wait.

After being pushed on by the 2 pubs in town, the willow was welcome relief on proceeding on edge through the under pass and lonely lane, well after dark. The efficient and hospitable landlady hooked up the generous chef Darren to come on board with a last minute meal. Hats off and on here for a nicely timed rump and trimmings. Keen to return for a less hurried experience and enjoy their garden, with a drop or two.

Most enjoyable lunchtime with David & Maddi. Food hot and great value.

Busy local pub, good for TV sports, friendly enough and good Guinness

Maddy made me lunch it was delicious and she served it with a smile and warm friendly nature 😊

Maddy served me and my wife lunch it was hot and tasty. She’s a lovely friendly girl really made our experience great

Had the senior meal. Great value for money.

Friendly place staff friendly the choice of food is excellent they are even dog friendly

Thank you to Lisa sophie Sean for a fantastic evening, the team are so friendly and treated me like I’m the only customer. I will be back very soon Thank you George

Good atmosphere friendly staff!

Lively and friendly pub, great atmosphere.

Great food and lovely staff, we had a roast. Huge plate of food and was delicious. Only down side was that we waited an hour and 15 minutes for our food. Wasn't much gravy on plate but they were more than happy to bring us more.

We popped into The Willow to take advantage of their Pensioners' £3.99 two course lunch. The potions were of a good size and nicely presented. My husband enjoyed steak and kidney pie which was very tasty although he perhaps would have liked a little more gravy. I opted for egg, ham and chips. The egg was clearly free range which was really good. Staff were very friendly and welcoming. An enjoyable lunchtime venue.

We've been regulars at the Willow for a number of years. We have been really impressed with the new food menu, great choices and value for money. Mark and team are welcoming, thanks especially to Dan, Jo, Lisa, Sophie, Darren and Sam. Hope I haven't forgotten anyone

Great little pub, very friendly staff and customers, lovely food. X

Lovely fresh food. Loads of choice and staff are lovely

Try and get some decent ciders on tap...Real cider, Aspall or something better than what you sell now.

The Willow is a Greene King pub located in a residential area of Harlow not far from Harlow station. There is ample parking with an extensive menu of favourite pub style foods served by friendly staff and prepared in short order time, it's not really a destination pub but if you're in the area it serves very well as a comfortable place to sit and eat. A good array of beers are available, ample seating inside and outside eating areas to the front and garden at the rear. The burger and chips are good value at £5.59 including lovely chips and onion rings.

Good food, pleasant atmosphere. Friendly helpful staff.

Staff friendly. Good atmosphere

Great staff and service good place to wait for my wife while she shops

Excellent customer service ! Lovely staff !🙂🥳😏

Service slow and they don't have half the food on menu always say waiting for delivery

Very acceptable prices, nice meal. Friendly enough. Virtual riot in the place between two groups avoided only by the door staff on hand Nearly had front row tickets to boxing match.

Food good and staff always helpful and friendly.

Lively sports bar with good choice of drinks and food

Great food Great staff and a lovely little place definitely will eat there again

Very we'll organised and felt safe

Would have given 4 stars if they were doing food during our visit

Good pub and there have Stella on draft

First impressions from outside wasnt to glamorous however soon as you step inside you receive a earm welcome. We found the drink and food prices exceptionally lower than normal places and with a good delivery time. All staff have been great to cater for our needs and made our evening here as pleasurable as possible..There were ninevof us eating and drinking here and all of us couldnt say anything negative about the place....oh except that they had run out if banoffee pie....gutted but the ultimate sundaes hit the spot anyway...

Too loud, too cold and no atmosphere

First time I've been back in since it was done up. Nice pub but I never ate so cant comment on the food but the staff are friendly and reasonable price for a pint.

It was really noisy didn't have cod on the menu. Didn't have Gordon's gin. Asked for Gordon's gin. Got Baboo gin what ever it is.

Great atmosphere and crowd,lovely welcoming pub

Lovely hot food really reasonable price great service too
