The best restaurants in Witham Chipping Hill and Central Braintree East of England

😎Great pub with friendly staff and punters

Great food highly recommend this place if you are local to Witham

Without a doubt still the best Chinese restaurant for miles. Lovely staff, spotlessly clean and the food just fabulous. We had a set menu and every dish was fantastic. Highly recommended

I Along with my disabled wheelchair bound partner visited this premises last saturday(25th April). We had a couple of drinks and some food. I have no issues at all in regards this however the point of this review is to mention there is no disabled toilet in the premises and I was told that a wheelchair user would not be able to use the ladies toilet due to the narrow entrance. My partner asked about a disabled toilet and was bluntly told no. Why is this in any way acceptable? As a result of no disabled facilities i had to take my partner to a nearby supermarket however had this been later in the evening I'd have had to take my partner home. I find it totally unacceptable that in this day and age there are still places without disabled facilities. Surely as a public house/hotel that is there to service people then why are you discriminating against wheelchair users? Hopefully someone will address this and explain why disabled people are not considered welcome.

It is in my line of work to write reviews and reports. And in this line of work I have never been so stunned and filled with disappointment at having to write this review and subsequently my report regarding Valero Lounge, Witham. My concerns are not about the food which in itself is actually great with plenty of options including gluten-free, vegetarian and vegan. Although with one member of staff you are likely not to receive your exact order. My complaints are with the staff who initially appear extremely polite, nice and friendly on the surface and then with no apparent reason or explanation are completely off and rude. Overall I have found the staff unprofessional and immature. And the whole experience has left me feeling sick, undervalued as a customer and highly unwelcomed.

It was very clean & well stocked, plenty of drink choices, and the staff were very helpful.

Ich trinke hier viel.Sehr gutes Bier und die Leute sind sehr freundluch. Sie haben viele Fernsehen fur Sport auch.

We have been going to Witham Prezzo for years and always find its great experience. It’s definitely the best one in the area both in terms of food quality and level of service. Our fav servers are Liv and Veronica, always so nice and attentive! Until the next time :)

We haven’t been here before & thought we’d give it a go. Glad we did, had tempura prawns with a chilli sauce & for mains Weeping Tiger Steak with egg fried rice & a couple of drinks £52. Steak melted in the mouth, right portion sizes, very satisfied & definitely recommend. Nice atmosphere. We will be back.

This was a brilliant traditional cafe supplying a good selection of reasonably priced English style breakfast and lunches, I was a regular punter. They closed a couple of months ago for a refurb and are now about to re open so I stopped by to check out the new menu. Oh dear, oh dear, it seems they have all gone a bit "Champagne Socialist" while they have been closed. The prices make no sense, instead of, say, £7.20 the menu says it as "7.2" Why? It's hard to find a breakfast without flippin Haloumi included! Why do I want squeaky rubber with my fried egg?? When you find a decent breakfast on the menu it's £11.90!!! (11.9 in their money) and that includes 1 slice of "sourdough toast", no drinks though. So by the time I add a coffee I'm going to be paying upwards of 16 quid for a fried breakfast (16.0 apparently), and I'll still only get one slice of poxy "sourdough" (yuk) I'm sure some of the Wickham Bishops Massiv will pop in from time to time but at these prices you've probably lost your core customers, the oldies, families and workers. And as for Halloumi on a fried breakfast, what's all that about eh?

Use to love Ying- but seriously now- nearly £6 for palin boiled rice?!!!! - satay chicken skewers - Boiled Rice Almost £21 WTF 🤬

Arranged a Takeaway and Sure delivered on Time by Delivery By Lee very nice Chap would recommend Veery Polite and Prompt. Also good Food!

I thought it would consider giving this Chinese takeaway a try. I was thoroughly disappointed. This ranks among the worst Chinese takeaways I have had in my life. The Chow Mein was dry and bland. The Chicken Pad Thai was too sweet and the chicken in it was stale and rubbery. The Sweet corn chicken soup was very bad. It was way too sweet for a chicken soup. The shredded chicken rice and the Chinese style chicken was the only saving grace but again not up to the standard. If I was starving and I had no other choice, I would go here and only order the veg spring rolls as anything else you order here would mean you are setting yourself up for a colossal disappointment.

shocking delivery service from empire house, used this firm before ,no problems, not waiting nearly 2 hours, excuse after excuse, on the plus side the food has always been good

UK fish bar has gone downhill of late, used to be really good here, but prices have shot up, £27.50 for 2 portions of cod & chips!! Will only consider eating here as a special treat in future, no longer viable to eat here very often, same for all chippies in Witham really. NB dont use the food delivery companys, they will charge you an extra £5 at least, even this shops own website gives you 10% off your order, but the prices are up 10% already!
