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 stopped overnight at Novotel, Stansted, 27 April, before our flight to Krakow the following day. The food and service was excellent. A big shout out to our waiter, Matt (a fan of dancing)! Thanks for all your help.

Have visited before when there has been a car show so was really busy then and had promised ourselves to come back. We were not disappointed. Lovely clean and tidy little place with a great well priced menu and charming friendly staff. We both opted for omelettes with three fillings which were delicious. The breakfasts looked great as well. We will certainly visit again. There is ample parking on site, just make sure you enter your registration details on the screen.

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

Nice Chinese food with affordable prices!

Very traditional pub, with substantial WWII USAF aircrew historical interest. The dining room is quite modern (white furniture etc), and we felt a bit out of character with the rest of the pub. Traditional menu (home made pie, fish & chips and so on), and could (perhaps) benefit from one or two additional more adventurous dishes. But overall, excellent food, large portions. Sensible prices, no automatic service charge. Nice pub/food, very good, just not "excellent".

Average, not much options, coffee was mediocre. Could be better

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.

The good wasn't great, the burgers were overcooked, and the chips were far too salty for us to eat. We had to ask to order, and throughout the meal, we weren't asked if we wanted more drinks, nor was we asked if everything was okay, until the end of the meal.

I found myself at Stansted airport last Friday with an unexpected four-hour layover in the middle of the day, courtesy of delayed Ryanair flights. I couldn’t bear the thought of spending that time loitering in the International Arrivals or Check-In areas prior to being able to check-in my hold luggage two hours before my rescheduled flight. Thankfully, I remembered that the Radisson Hotel is just a brisk two-minute walk from the terminal building and knew that their lobby bar / lounge would make for a more pleasant option to pass the time and have some lunch. Although the Wine Tower Bar is not the cosiest of places due to the extremely high ceiling and echoey atmosphere, seating is plentiful and comfortable, and the bar was extremely quiet at the time of my visit. The short Daytime Bar Menu offers good quality food and decent portions, though at admittedly high prices, but, in my opinion, at much better value for money than at the airport, where my “restaurant” choices would’ve been Burger King and Costa Coffee. My very tasty Chicken Caesar Salad cost £19.50 plus £1.95 service charge. Other guests nearby ate Fish & Chips, and the size of the battered fish was generous. There is an extensive beverages menu including cocktails and mocktails, Guinness on tap and, of course, the contents of that famous wine tower. A very good Americano and a Virgin Mojito came in at around £14, but were worth it for the sake of being able to spend my wait in the bar area and avoid the airport terminal chaos until it was time for my check-in. Kudos to Loveline at the bar who looked after me well once we got over our language problems – her accent and mine didn’t gel well.

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.

Came in with my friends for breakfast before our flight, horrible service. The tall male waiter was very rude to my friend when she asked a question and took far too long to get us our meals. He had concerning red splotches across his hands which would be appropriate to be covered from food. Would not recommend and will not be returning.
