The best restaurants in Waltham Abbey South West Epping Forest East of England

I spent well about £40 on 3 pizzas and sides. The thin crust pizzas was like eating a biscuit. So hard ans crispy it was definitely the worst pizzas I have ever had. I didn't call a complain.

we were missing the hot chocolate and no syrup or butter was supplied for the 2 pancake meals!!

4 dishes were cold. 1 dish was missing. will not be ordering again

Since I can remember in the 70's, this used to be the best Chinese takeaway for miles, unfortunately, now it's one of the worst! We ordered a takeaway for 3 of us for my husbands birthday, new year's eve. We placed the order at 8.30pm and received it shortly before 11pm! We appreciate they were busy but when the food arrived it was luke warm, the chips were dry and cold and the satay chicken looked like 4 turds in a foil tray... they didn't even taste like satay! The chilli beef was lovely though. That's about the only positive I can honestly give for this food on this occasion!

.went to de mangos to try one more time as our first time it wasn’t very good to our surprise new people had just taken over and boy where they excellent if you are visiting or live in the abbey you got to try it if they carry on like this they will smash all the other Asian restaurants/takeaways the food the staff all above excellent they even have a vegan menu running alongside the traditional one also they have a section in which they have their own dishes it remains de mangos for now but it will have a name change soon so watch out we highly recommend

I went here to get my self some food after school it came so late £8.50 for one meal the food was dry the chicken burger was just not it

I know I have put visited in. May 2022 but the last time I visited was back in 90s, & no later dates to put in. was visiting the area with my ex husband family & stop off at phillpotts, not sure if they still bake the scones on premises but they use to make the scones, & jam themselves back then The best cream tea I've ever tasted, shame they don't do a phillpotts in newcastle as I moved back to my hometown It was still owned by one of the phillpotts family back them, a remember a guy with dark hair beard & glasses , but I was in my mid 20s then in the 90s Recommend such a lovely place & I do recommend the cream teas 👌👌👌

Possibly the worst Thai curry I have had the misfortune to eat, it was uneatable, the chicken was hard and not fresh , the rice was hard, the curry was watery, Will not order from them again, avoid.

We waited over 1.5hours for our food and when it arrived it wasn’t worth the wait. The appetiser starters were soft and chewy (spring rolls, prawn toast etc). The crispy chicken was also soft and not crispy - very disappointing. We will not be returning
