The best restaurants in Hedingham and Maplestead Braintree East of England

Enjoyed our first visit to the Pheasant at Gestingthorpe. Food was excellent and staff were friendly and attentive. Will definitely return. Thanks to all for a great Sunday lunch.

We are locals and frankly we’re delighted with the recent changes made to the pub. We went out with a group of friends for an evening meal, it was absolutely delicious. The staff are friendly, the drink is far superior to what used to be on offer. Highly recommend.

Just been ripped off for collection price of take away. Current menu shows 10% off for collection. They do not honour this discount. Staff attitude when queried this is abysmal.
