The best restaurants in Uttlesford East of England

Found by chance when looking for a better alternative to airport food. Excellent food at good value; very good service and a nice pub vibe.

Our first visit. Greeted warmly on arrival and given a complimentary drink and appetiser. Our host talked us through the choice of food on the menu and also the specials of the day. We elected to share the starters and left it to our host to choose a suitable selection. The four of us then selected our main course and side dishes where appropriate. The food was served on hot plates and arrived piping hot. All four of us enjoyed the meal. Whilst none of us were vegans we noticed that there was a good selection for those who are. We will certainly visit again.

This is a village country traditional pub retaining all of its original features which still offers the opportunity locals to prop up the bar with your dog for just a chat and pint but there are three eating areas with the menu being 100% Italian. Outside to the front there are benches and tables and the pub offers parking too. The menu prices are very reasonable and food is very good. The service was good with helpful friendly staff.

Really disappointed, we ordered 4 pizzas online and they were listed as 2 for £25, when we paid we were charged £56. The pizza was late and not very nice, plastic cheese, did ring up and left a message for a call back to explain why we were overcharged but no response. Would not return

This is an unusual cafe/ cum restaurant. It is on the ground-floor of a residential home and is open to the public. It also trains young people with learning disabilities to enable them to find employment in catering. There were a large number of us, from the Rotary Club in the town. We had a three course set-menu of salmon roulade, beef pie and vegetables and a giant chocolate brownie with cream. There is also a good drinks menu with good value wines and a range of beers and other drinks. The service was very good.

What a great little place this is - a real asset to the high street with an interesting menu and wine list. We were there on a very busy Friday evening and staff were working hard to serve everyone with drinks and food orders. We had a bit of a wait for our food but, in the meantime, we enjoyed a bottle of wine and we got chatting to a couple of ladies on the next table - it's that type of place, friendly and informal. Our sharing platter was fabulous, I love this idea of a bit of everything on a plate! All in all, a great evening and experience. Our only disappointment is that we don't live nearer to De la Terre - we'd be frequent diners if we did!

We go here every time we visit the area! The food (Bacon rolls / breakfasts) and coffees (Latte / Americano) are great and the ladies working there are very friendly. Highly recommended!

We would highly recommend this little cafe/bistro in ther heart of Saffron Walden. It has friendly, welcoming staff with a varied menu supplying a good food of food at very good prices. It is very nicely decorated and the music is a bonus. We are not local, but we will definately call again whenever we are in the area.

Honestly the best Pizza I’ve had in the area and I’d go so far to say since I visited Naples. Beautiful taste, and freshness with Caprese side. Found my go to Pizza now

This has to be the best cafe (apart from Pav's stand in Bishop's Stortford) in the area. The quiche is to die for best I have ever eaten and all Pav's baked fare is so delicious. The cafe is quirky, food and drink amazing and service outstanding.

We have always walked past Jolie's but decided to give it a go. This will now be our go to place for a nice cuppa in Saffron Walden. Very quaint and quiet and the staff were very nice. I ordered a sausage roll and it came served on a slate platter with a nice side-salad and home-made chutney. Totally unexpected and a very nice touch. My wife has an almond croissant and said it was the best she had ever tasted. It is also made locally. Well done

Awaiting a flight and by chance fell upon this place Best fish and best steak I’ve ever eaten Dreams are made of this xxxxxx

Before lock down, we used to eat out every now and again. Now, that's not an option, but Prepped seems like a great alternative. We ordered the beef chop for two with a bottle of wine. That was a salad starter, huge beef chop with chips, sauce, spinach etc and chocolate brownies. We checked that everything was gluten free because I am a coeliac and that was no problem. It was delivered to our door as described and it was easy to cook. Absolutely delicious. I didn't take any photos because we were too busy eating and enjoying it!

Love the dishes here everything is fresh and delicious. So nice to have somewhere to get a nice healthy take away breakfast/ lunch on the go or to eat in when I have a bit of extra time after my work out 🤗 Or even grabbing a healthy dinner after work when I just want a takeaway as they serve hot food till 7pm 👍 Open to non members and ample parking !! Currently loving the amazing smoothies with added protein powder after my workout for breakfast simple and easy on the go with all the nutrients and protein needed. Even the juice plan I had here for a post holiday detox was perfect. And Sandra explained and guided me through the process and how to go forward with my meal plans after. Definitely recommend this gorgeous deli and it lovely staff / service and atmosphere Note to SB : address is still showing high st and not leisure centre 🙂
