The best restaurants in East Hertfordshire East of England

Arranged an afternoon tea for a special aunt on the occasion of her 90th birthday and what a wonderful time we all had. The staff were simply amazing, greeting my aunt when we arrived, but then just being there when required. Loved the tea selection especially the Lapsang and the sandwiches and cakes were lovely and definitely moreish. All in all it was the perfect afternoon and we couldn't have asked for me. Thank you all.

Having lazily searched the High Street and failed to find a McDonalds I was so glad I did. I had the vegetable omelette which comes with a small salad and pita bread. It was probably the best omelette I have ever eaten! I washed it all down with a small pot of tea, which also hit the mark. Lovely, friendly staff / owners/ chef. Very good value for money. Highly recommended.

I booked in the entire space for my husband’s 40th surprise party and I can’t tell you how happy I am with how everything went! I had been looking for a venue for a while and when I saw Paisá it was perfect! Lorenzo and his staff were so helpful in helping me to plan the evening! The food and drinks were spectacular and I couldn’t recommend this place more! They were super accommodating on the day as well and everything went to plan and all executed smoothly. I highly highly highly recommend and would definitely rebook for future events!!

Superb in every way. From entering to leaving was an absolute joy. The service was speedy and superb. Even the small things like a proper cup of tea not tea bags make a big difference. The food was outstanding and the top quality ingredients shone through as was cooked to perfection. I highly recommend the scrambled egg OMG it's the best ever. It's not cheap but worth every penny and in all good value for money. I can't recommend this place highly enough, very well done to all staff and management involved.

I had bought a wheel of tete de moine last Christmas, which The Cheese Plate had posted to me. It was great and I wanted another one this Christmas but this time I thought I'd drive up to Buntingford and see what else they have. Fortunately I was able to buy their last wheel of tete de moine, which, surprisingly, was the same price as last year! But they had some lovely other cheeses too - a spread of English, French, Swiss, Italian and Spanish I believe. The highlight was the creamy/gooey gorgonzola but I also bought a small pot of garlic jelly - something I hadn't seen before and an excellent morbier, far better than what's on offer in supermarkets.

5 Amazing quality sourdough toasties, premium delicious homebaked treats Lovely attentive staff Perfect coffee We sat upstairs which is beautifully cosy and you can admire the “listed” historical features of this Sawbridgeworth gem

Yummy, great freshly made pizza, good value

I've worked with Tig at various street food events. He's a lovely bloke but more importantly his food is a staple for me at food events never let down, always fresh good portions sizes. Amazing!

Thank you for helping to make our family celebration a great event. The service was excellent and the hog roast was delicious. We will be booking again!

Used for corporate event last week. General consensus from attendees was best events pizza ever tasted!

Fabulous find. Lovely food all fresh and no additives. Great coffee Smashing staff and service . Perhaps some would say expensive but you get what you pay for . Rather pay extra for good service and ambience and lovely artisan food. Third visit and will certainly return

The best food. Freshly cooked to order. Best sausages for miles. Best bubble. Fresh Doorstep bread. Friendly fast effecient sevice. Value for money beats all other cafes. Always nice and clean.

Great couples bar - landlady is very friendly does great tricks with beer mats and corkscrew - never seen anything like it

We call in quite often for breakfast, usually on the weekend. So nice to be able to get a seat in comfortable friendly surroundings when other places can be heaving. The food is excellent, always freshly prepared and arrives hot and well presented at the table. We rarely go anywhere else now as so simple and convenient. So far have only had their excellent breakfasts, but will soon go in for lunch as the menu looks scrummy. Would highly recommend.

Having eaten at the George a few times I thought it was time to right a review. The food we have had on every visit is exceptional, last night we had the scotch egg and grilled king prawns followed by the sirloin steak for 2, the chefs obviously are passionate about what they do and it shows in the food. The service is unassuming but very efficient the perfect combination. We will definitely be back again.
