The best restaurants in East of England

Oh dear- I really wanted to like this restaurant but it was let down by slow service, clearly "warmed -up" dishes and (at least for me) a gloomy atmosphere. There was one waiter on duty, answering calls, serving food and sorting out the buffet; a charming young man but much too much for him to do. Epping is blessed with other Indian restaurants and nothing I've had today will encourage me to go back to Coriander. Sorry!

Love this place the people running it are amazing

Wonderful service as always staff and students very polite and friendly. Food was superb steaks were absolutely amazing. Had a lovely lunch with our daughter. Highly recommend and such great value.

I really love ordering from them. The food is delicious and the prices are really amazing. People should order from them more often. The food makes me feel at home.

I did a hot yoga class with Hakan (instructor) and i found it very unfriendly for new comers, especially beginners. It’s a shame as the classes and studio itself are advertised as friendly for beginners and all levels. There were a lot of movements that cannot be done as a beginner and there were no efforts made to adapt/modify exercises. There were points where l had to just sit there looking around because I couldn't do some of the more advanced poses and the instructor did not offer any modifications. There should be a notice before signing up to the class to indicate it is for advanced students and not for beginners. There was a strange smell coming from the mats in the hot yoga studio. Additionally, the website states they have showers - which they did not have. I’m also disappointed to see how they respond to reviews - very polite in higher reviews and very passive aggressive in lower reviews.

Lovely solo meal here. Incredible food & great staff.

First time visiting today. They had no gluten free bread as it was their first day back from holiday and it had not been delivered. Did this mean I had to go out (as other cafes have done)? No! A member of staff asked me what gf bread I like and went off to Sainsbury's to get it for me. She came back with a selection! Now THAT is customer service! My poached egg on gf toast was lovely. Everything was clean and the staff could not have been more friendly or helpful. Highly recommended

Amazing local family owned business. With great coffee that taste just great. Interesting food and pastries from Brazil and Portugal. With friendly atmosphere that sometimes feel bit overwhelming due to popularity of the place between local people. Definitely worth checking out and visiting. Anndrzej ☺️

Exactly how an old English pub should be

We had a nice time , the food was amazing. We ordered 3 langos and bubble teas. Will definitely come back again. Owners were very friendly and welcoming. Thank you we will come again !

Great place, AMAZING FOOD, nice people good location

Lovely old fashioned pub. Sad ots closed

Tasty lunch with family, shout out to Simon, very helpful, professional & efficient

Toasted sandwich very flat and squashed, thick slices would be better. All ok on a basic, comfortable, and friendly level.

Used to be really good, hence the return custom, but I would never order from here again. For the price of the food, the portions were tiny, husband ordered a large kebab, it came with the sauce plonked on the top, the salad in the same box, which was the majority to make the portion look more like a large as there was a handful of meat, and the pitta was soggy and greasy. The soggy cheesy chips were abysmal, the large was a child’s portion with a tiny amount of rubberised cheese on the top. The garlic chicken wrap was awful, the sauce was sickly I had to throw the wrap away. The customer service was disgusting, the lady on the phone was rude while taking the order (should have took that as a sign). Ordered £50 worth of food for the family, and no one ate it. Waste of time and money. Never again!!! Avoid at all costs!
