The best restaurants in The Chesterfords Uttlesford East of England

In the centre of a pretty village, this homely bakery is a true find. Delicious pastries and sausage rolls (yum) and a couple of tables outside- for when it’s not raining!! Also some high quality Fieldgood ready meals in the freezer. Love it!

Top notch Thai food with so much flavour and great presentation. Also offer a great range of pizzas which are fantastic too. The atmosphere in the pub is always great with really friendly, competent staff and landlord who always make you feel so welcome. Nothing is too much trouble. Great place to take your friends and family and also dog friendly too!

We had a lovely stay at this beautiful hotel. Our room was incredibly spacious and featured a stunning four-poster bed – the mattress and pillows were so comfortable, we both slept brilliantly! The whole place has a very homely feel, with cosy seating areas in the bar/lounge that made it easy to relax and unwind. The gardens are absolutely beautiful – full of colour and bustling with wildlife, which added something really special to our stay. A perfect mix of comfort, character, and peaceful surroundings. Would definitely stay again!

Hands down the best pub experience I’ve ever had. The new chef at The Plough has absolutely transformed the menu every dish is bursting with flavour, beautifully presented, and cooked to perfection. From the steak to the specials, everything we tried was next-level this is not your average pub grub. It’s elevated, creative, and utterly delicious. The service was warm, welcoming, and attentive – you can really feel the passion and care from the whole team. The atmosphere? Unreal. There’s a genuine vibe here, something you don’t come across often it’s lively, cozy, and full of character. You can tell people want to be here. It honestly felt like discovering a hidden gem. This place has soul, flavour, and energy easily the best pub I’ve ever been to. Can’t wait to come back – 10/10 all round

Had my wedding here, love this quaint hotel with its attentive lovely staff. It has a wonderful atmosphere with good food. A lovely old hotel with lots of character. Good parking and very clean and reasonable

As English Heritage members we call in at Audley sometimes for a snack on the way past. After our last visit in August I wrote to English Heritage to complain about the café but have not had any response so I decided to leave this review. My concerns were several - young staff with no supervision and rushed off their feet ( not their fault ). Food uncovered on a counter extremely close to where people were queuing and walking past. This is a serious hygiene matter. ( E.H. need to take a look at National Trust cafes ). Tables dirty full of used crockery and leftover food. There was a trolley for customers to use but tucked in a corner. Take a picnic, there are beautiful grounds to sit in and tables near the house which I might add is magnificent.
