The best restaurants in Wickham Bishops and Woodham Maldon East of England

Perfect service and delicious food, we went for afternoon tea and it was one of the best I’ve had so thank you! We will be back for sure.

A lovely little pub off the beaten track. A nice welcome from the landlady and a superbly kept pint of Abbot Ale. Lots of cat memorabilia around the old wooden beamed pub. A great find!

great food and lovely friendly staff, sorry to be disappointed with no seating . I think the website should stress that you need to book I shall not be caught again but midweek there was only a few people in the pub so thought it would be OK as only a few eating. We have been several times before and shall be returning but make sure we book !

Atmospheric pub serving good food

Just back from an excellent lunch after a lovely 6 mile walk starting and ending at The Queen Vic. Wonderful hospitality and the food was really good - very generous portions too.

Over priced hot drinks and food.i had a Bakewell tart in a wrapper after I had eaten it realized it was out of date.why make the seating area bigger but still keep the tiny counter.now letting in dogs isn't about time eating places realize not every one wants the smell of animals while they are eating.

Have wanted to try here for a while. What a beautiful quaint little tradional pub with a great menu and specials. Opted for the liver & bacon as my other half doesn't like it so never make it at home. Wow. Portion huge. Fresh mash. Fresh veggies ( 5 veg!) Soo tasty! Couldn't finish it all but had it boxed up as far too good to waste. Too full for pudding but will definitely be back.

We arrived and we were quickly shown to our table. Our drinks orders were taken, and we were swiftly served. Our meal order was taken after some deliberation over the menu as there was a great choice of many lovely things to eat! Two of the group chose starters, and after a bit of a wait, they arrived. They looked and reported to taste delicious. The serving were large, so, only order if you are really hungry! We had quite a wait for our main courses but they were worth the wait! All of the meals were well presented and again, large portions. Mine was delicious and all the others reported that theirs were tasty too. The seasonal veg were cooked to the bite which makes such a change from some being over cooked. If you have room for a dessert, there is an ample selection of hot traditional puddings through to cold desserts and ice cream. Two of us ventured to have a chocolate brownie with ice cream. Again, the portions were generous but really tasty. The ice cream portion was the biggest on the plate, which was perfect! If you want fast food then this is not for you as the serve 'good food not fast food ' which we all totally agree with!

Went for the first time for early sitting on NYE. On arrival we stood and waited for sometime behind the takeaway order queue. I think maybe there should be a separate area for this. After Asking to be seated we were shown to our table after around 10 mins. The restaurant was pretty empty so that could have been avoided. The food was very good. My chicken pasanda was succulent and the sauce delicious. All the dishes were very well presented Everyone enjoyed their food. Staff were very pleasant and efficient. We live locally and will definitely use all the time.

Service and food excellent. Small pub with garden area. Tends to get a bit noisy when it's busy, but once customers start eating it quietens down considerably. Definitely recommend
