The best restaurants in Bishop's Stortford Central East Hertfordshire East of England

Absolutely fantastic place, food is outstanding

This is the second time we ordered from Ruby's as a takeaway, first time I asked for a medium spice dish in a nice thick sauce NOT tomatoey. It arrived as a really hot spicy dish in a tomato sauce with tomatoes In it, the complete opposite to what we asked for. I called them to express our disappointment and they offered a free main course next time. So we tried again. Last night we asked for saffron chicken which description says a creamy sauce, he said it was mild so I asked if it could be made medium , it arrived and tasted disgusting, like a perfume taste! If I had of paid for it I would have called them . I will not be ordering from them again..would definitely not recommend!

Visited here yesterdayfor Sunday dinner, having heard good things. All four of us chose the medley of roasts, fortunately we declined starters & we were so glad we did, as the dinner was massive & really really tasty, making it such great value at £20.50 per person, as we were also unable to have a desert Would 100% recommend & we will definitely be going back again ! Thank you

I had a horrible experience at this restaurant. I ordered food, but the driver couldn’t find our house, and instead of trying to resolve the issue calmly, the manager started shouting at me. This kind of treatment is completely unacceptable, especially when I was just trying to enjoy a meal. I won’t be coming back here again and highly recommend avoiding this place if you want decent service.

I have been here a few times and the food has been good. I went here with my daughter about a month ago - the staff were very friendly and the cake and drinks were nice. However almost immediately after eating I felt ill and by the time I got home both myself and my daughter were very ill with stomach pains and diarrhoea. I politely contacted this cafe the next day as I thought it was important they knew that there was a problem - maybe the drink machine hadn’t been cleaned correctly or the cake had bad eggs. But they did not respond, I have followed this up twice with no response. This is really bad policy and service. I have been advised to contact the local health dept too and report this establishment - sadly I will NEVER eat here again as food safety has to be the number one concern and it clearly isn’t here.

Connor was fabulous and the food was amazing. 💯 hope this stays in Bishops Stortford. Its something different and great fun with the free retro machines too! Street Fighter after a waffle was great fun with the kids. The choice of toppings was excellent and the range of sweets was excellent. Bubble tea and bubble juice is available too as well as burgers, hot dogs and vegan options too

I agree with the review below the food is nice but poxy little portions I couldn’t believe how small the plates of food that come up but 4 chicken balls between 2 people what a joke also the prices on the menu outside the door are not the same as the menu inside we spent £80 and not a free prawn cracker in sight

Average review based on many visits - on a good day it’s a favourite of ours, particular the candied bacon burger. But last night was really poor. The chips tasted like burnt oil and were a grey/dark yellow colour. The wings were soggy and gross and the burger was really average. Hopefully just a bad day at the office.

Picked Rosey Lea because it has kerb appeal and there was a pretty terrace to enjoy the last of the summer. Had a simple lunch of baked potato and a glass of wine which came to £17.45. The spud was OK and came with a decent amount of salad. However, for that money I want a big, fluffy and really hot potato where the cheese is happily melting in to the mix. The one I had was warmish and smallish. Service was friendly but on the slow side.

Oh my goodness! Stansted overnighters you are in luck! only an 8 minute train ride from the terminal and a 30 second walk….. and you are in for a treat!! just had our second visit in 6 weeks….. GORGEOUS! wonderful warm welcome, attentive and caring team and the food ….. OMG! both me and my husband are very picky…. largely because i also work in the business. BUT!…. honestly….. it is very rare these days to have a 3-course meal and then sit back and say….. MY GOD! EVERY MOUTHFUL WAS A DELIGHT! Well done Team Woods! perfection!!'

How stupid of me that I haven’t been to a Pie and Mash shop yet! I’m happy to say that this one was a great choice. The atmosphere was relaxing, and the staff were very friendly. The pie was very nice. The dough wasn’t as crispy as I expected, but it didn’t spoil the enjoyment. Thank you kindly, F Cooke Pie and Mash!

Decided to give this restaurant a go, wrong decision unfortunately, worse Indian food I’ve ever had, tasted like it wasn’t freshly cooked, dry and mushy, onion bhaji’s were full of grease and not crispy at all. Husband ordered the bhuna and he said it is the worst bhuna he has ever attempted to eat. Most of mine went in the bin, worst dansak. Honestly the worst takeaway we have ever ordered and won’t be back and certainly won’t be recommending it

How this place has gone down hill, the smell of smoke from somewhere was overpowering. The empty table next to us was surrounded by chips on the floor under the high chair, the place was nearly empty and plenty of staff so no excuse there. That's our last visit.

Very friendly staff and good food

Have had many Chinese take aways from Lee's and always enjoyed. Tonight had Chicken Szechuan,and it was delicious.. Had to review as it is always consistently f]good.
