The best restaurants in Epping Forest East of England

Used to be a firm favourite as there's a playground and you can watch the small planes / helicopters taxiing and taking off. Great for kids. However, they've recently put their prices up a lot, to proper restaurant prices (Website prices are out of date, add about £3 on) Sadly the quality has remained at greasy spoon level and not increased to match. Also didn't give us part of our meals because they had run out, but didn't offer anything alternative, or money off, so we paid for things we never received. Barely an apology. Sadly probably will not be back. Maybe come for coffees and cake rather than proper lunch.

Arrived to find it not open on Monday at 21.00. They need to update their socials.

I always use this restaurant but never had any problems . I’ve been up all night throwing up and going to the toilet . I knew the food didn’t taste like normal and certainly am counting the cost of it. Definitely something wrong with the food and now I’ve no doubt got food poisoning . 🤬

Delicious food won't go anywhere else for take away pizza!

Website said open. Took money didn’t confirm and don’t answer phone!

Absolutely disgusting food there was hair in my food couldn’t eat my food phoned up to have it replaced the customer care was disgraceful didn’t even offer to deliver and make a replacement paid £40 and it was disgusting got told they will deal with the complaint tomorrow DO NOT ORDER FROM HERE YOULL BE VERY DISSATISFIED ABSOLUTELY DISGUSTING !!!!!!!!!!!!!

Went to Costa today with my husband I do regularly seen everything dirty and rubbish at the same time sofas and tables i was shocked I never seen before any costa branch! Disappointed

Great service from Giovanna. Lovely food, excellent value.

Food is amazing, great variety to choose from. Service is very nice. Parking is easy.

Lovely Sunday lunch with pleasant staff

This review is NOT about the Sultan, however it is about the seafood stall attached to the pub. I bought a large bowl of jellied eels. Which were quite nice, but at £9 a bowl I would have thought that they wouldn’t have put quite so many tails in the bowl five in total. The price of other items on the stall was quite shocking. I enquired as to whether they were busy. The rotund lady replied that they were not. Well it’s no surprise and very easy to see why. This is not a place I would recommend to others nor will I be returning.

My wife went and brought me a piece of cod half of it was dry and it was so small I could get more fish out of a pack of fish fingers there is no value for money

Excellent for takeaway or delivery. Friendly service and the best chicken you can have in Loughton. It really is the Perfect Choice!

Had a brilliant Sunday roast, will definitely be visiting again! Very good service too.

Sheesh Chigwell was fantastic from start to finish. The only thing that stands out as an issue is the upstairs bar area having no air conditioning. It’s a sweaty dance floor!
