I had a three course lunch in this fantastic homely chic and stylist restaurant. The atmosphere in the historic property is relaxed but the standards are star worthy from the table settings, to the art for sale on the walls and the immaculate impeccable service. Abby served us and was friendly informative and timed everything perfectly. Without exception each plate was perfectly presented and portions balanced, they could not have done better. Sadly the street scene could be improved with the removal of the burger sign for the cafe next door and perhaps a better sign for the restaurant closer to the road as the present one is nailed to the roof fascia above the entrance. Parking is in the cafe car park next door with big warning signs saying you cant park, but you can and it’s confusing. Anyway once you are in and seated theres plenty of space and it’s just excellent and worth the mid range price they charge, which is good value for the experience they have created.

We were made very welcome at the Layer Fox Pub. Our party of 10 had people with various dietary needs and the pub catered for all of us. Family friendly and old school hospitality with superb service. Would recommend. Food was v good including a super Fish and Chips. Perfect after a day at Colchester Zoo.

We walked to this pub whilst stopping at the local campsite. It’s a great little place, nice and warm with a good selection of beers and lagers on tap. We had a lovely warm welcome and felt right at home from the moment we stepped in. The menu was quite basic but don’t be put off. I enjoyed one of the best lasagna’s I’ve ever had with a fresh salad to boot. We’ll definitely be back.

We visited the Donkey for Sunday dinner. Both had a fantastic home cooked dinner with tender meat, crispy roast potatoes, very generous portions and the staff were so welcoming and friendly. Cannot recommend it highly enough. We will definitely return for more. Thank you 🤩
