The best restaurants in Stansted South Uttlesford East of England

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

Lovely, relaxing place to have a drink while waiting on our delayed flight. Livingstone was serving us and was absolutely great; very professional while friendly and welcoming at the same time. We’ll definitely return again

We stayed at this hotel the day of returning to the UK. On arrival at the hotel, again we were greeted from a lovely young lady and Otis was there and remembered us. The lady booked us a table in the restaurant. As dinner was booked for 7.45pm, we decided to have our usual starters on arrival in the bar. Again the prawns were amazing. On arrival at 7.45 for our table, we were greeted by a lovely lady (we found out later that her name was Zara) The man who took our order had served us two years ago and we knew his service was good. I was a bit dubious in ordering because the last two years there was a problem with my meal ( the first visit lasgane was cold, last year my steak come up with balsamic vinegar all over the plate). But, we were hungry and wanted to finish our holiday with a nice meal. A young man (later found out he was called Tom) and a young girl brought over our food. My husband had burger, which looked really good. My lasgane was absolutely covered in parmesan cheese, which is an extra that you are usually offered in restaurants. I refused to eat it as I do not like parmesan cheese and it should have been offered. Tom and the young girl didn't know what to do and said that they would take it back to kitchen to see what could be done. Also, i refused to eat my fries as they were to accompany my lasgane. The first waiter came over to see what problem was, he went away and returned to say they were cooking a fresh lasgane with fries. My husband ate on his own. Zara came over. She was very apologetic and told us that Tom had told her i was refusing to eat it. She said that the meal and drinks were on the management as a mark of apology. She was nice. We thought she was a manager because of the way she handled the situation. She said she was a supervisor. She came over to check on us a couple of times with more apologies. As she had solved the issue, we were ok. But still very unhappy that something had gone wring for third year on the trot. And yet again, my husband had to eat on his own. We were never offered anything for the previous mistakes. Apart from Zara this time, which we thank her. We advised Zara that for our first night at the hotel (25th September) poor Tom was the only one running food in the bar. We said how well he had done and felt sorry for him. She said she would look into that as he shouldn't have been on his own. We are travelling the same time next year and always like to stay in an airport hotel. We want to stay here again, but we are worried that the food will go wrong again.

I’ve been coming here on and off for some time. Everything you’d want from a coffee shop. It’s very clean, the staff are friendly and the food is great.

I don't leave bad reviews, I am always as fair as I can be and give businesses every opportunity to make things right, but Bombay Butler wasn't interested once they had my money. My Bombay Byriani arrived with no lamb inside and 3 tiny pieces of chicken. It was also cold. I rang them and explained calmly that I didn't receive what I ordered. They said, no worries, come in and we'll sort it out. I explained I was at the airport with no means to get to them. They said, well there is nothing we can do and hung up. Here's a little tip. You could have delivered me a lamb skewer. I was 2 miles away. It would have cost your business £10 to put right. You already had £17 of my money. If you want a successful business, it is moments like that which make the difference. Karma is real. You might also want to improve the quality of your mango chutney, it looked the colour of something that came out of Chernobyl. However, I doubt you will do that because the boss is obviously more interested in short term bean-counting than long term profitability. Good luck Bombay Butler, with that guy at the helm you are gonna need it

Fabulous little independent place, serving great home cooked food with a smile and a warm atmosphere. Lovely to look out at the river while we ate and enjoyed our stews! Kombucha goes well with stew... Who knew?!

Our go to for a nice chow mein! Also, the salt and chilli king prawns are delicious!

Food was delicious and staff were polite and friendly

Undergoing refurbishment It needs it so badly

Must try No.1 appetizers, they are mixture of popular asian food. The atmosphere and service is amazing. Thank you so much.

Pre Ordered Earlier Tonight. Order was cancelled 5 mins before Collection. Absolutely Disgraceful. STAY AWAY. The place was closed when I went to complain.

Brilliant food and honestly these best service. Would highly recommend 👌

Order placed at 530pm to avoid the rush, delivery said 50 minutes after an hour tried to call multiple times with no answer. At 8pm I spoke with the service team livechat who said the restaurant apologies and says it will be there in 30 minutes. At 830 I tried to call again, no response, back on livechat who couldn't get hold of them and said to wait 15 minutes and if I never got my food to email them for a refund! I have a 2 week old baby and a 7 year old who by this point is starving, I had a cesarean so can't drive hense the delivery and my partner is back at work from today. I managed to get a family member to come and collect me to take me to the restaurant where they said "there has been a fight in the restaurant and we had no way to do your order or contact you" as they were saying this a delivery driver was packing a bag with food to deliver to somebody. They did offer to cook the food (a pizza and a kebab) bit said it would take 25 minutes! Whilst I was in there there was no sign of there having been a fight inside but the place was disgusting. Needless to say I will never ever order with them again.

This restaurant was simply fabulous from start to finish. From the moment you arrive your greeter with a warm friendly reception and all staff are so super helpful. The food and drinks were excellent- hot and promptly served with a very authentic Italian feel to the whole environment. The chicken Milanese was superb! I highly recommend this restaurant at Stansted for its warmth and authenticity and of course for the wonderful service and fantastic food… I’ll be back !

Excellent service, amazing place!
