The best restaurants in Halstead St Andrew's Braintree East of England

Recommended by a local wool shop, we chanced a walk up to get a table, understanding that the place is often booked up. What a lovely recommendation!! Coffee perfectly made, menu varied, food fresh and attractively served by friendly staff. Perfect little bolt hole, full of character and value for money - absolute winner.

Amazing place, the food was incredible and the owners are so lovely! They allowed me to hire the venue for an afternoon tea party for a surprise baby shower and they truly went above and beyond with it! Everyone was commenting on how incredible the food was (there wasn’t much left!) and how friendly but professional the staff were! Will definitely be in touch again for future events and family outings as they also provide high chairs for babies/toddlers which is so helpful as I have twin toddlers so it’s great to know they can be safe while we all enjoy a drink and some cake! Thank you Torsbeanie!

What a fantastic evening hosted by darraline Tasting german wines with fantastic food and firends. Darraline are such good entertainers and hospitality experts everything they provide is theater. Food was FANTASTIC one hell of a spread they put on for sure and totally unexpected. I would highly recommend booking darraline to host your private events you will not be disappointed. Left feeling full content and looking foward to the next one. Thanks guys

Nick served us a great bap!! Chelsea cooked, and both served us with smiles and courtesy, despite being on the verge of closing. Would definitely stop here for pleasant service and good tasting breakfast!! Thank you 😊

We had a takeaway meal for a total of 13 people. The food was excellent, delivered on time and the service was brilliant. Would thoroughly recommend the Shish for top rate service.

Delicious food, great service and really lovely friendly staff. I would highly recommend

We had an amazing meal here and will definitely be back. The staff are extremely friendly, the service is quick, and the food is delicious.

I just adore this bakery. The staff are so very friendly, you feel welcome as soon as you walk in the door. The cakes/scones are fabulous, tea is in a little pot with a cozie, such a great touch. The prices are so very reasonable, you cannot beat this bakery/tearoom. I love it.

A quick drink in the afternoon. Good atmosphere and free roast potatoes at the bar. Delicious

Superb food! So lucky to have this in Halstead!

Nice pub has its own brewery staff friendly beer, ok it's worth a visit
