The best restaurants in Bocking North Braintree East of England

If the managers reading this can you comment on when you are likely to reopen for the public, particularly for the plants.

Went here again Friday evening. Good ale and good food and good prices. I had the Thai chicken curry and my husband had the liver and bacon. Good potions. We have had the scampi, sausages and the fish and chips. For red meat eaters there are burgers etc. Sunday lunches are legendary. Open Wed to Sat nights and Sunday lunch which is beef or turkey and freshly cooked vegetables. This pub did the wake for my brother in March and the buffet was excellent and enjoyed by all age groups- up to a 97 year old. There is 60s music playing quietly in the background from a juke box. So much nicer than all the gastro pubs. They have their place but we love our local pub.

Completely missed a dish off the order and not for the first time. We order most Sundays but won’t order again. It’s so disappointing to not receive all your dishes. When I called them they said the driver had gone home at 2040hrs and couldn’t deliver. I couldn’t collect as I had had a drink. The food you get is ok though but sadly we will find somewhere else to order next week.
