The best restaurants serving British food in Braintree Central Braintree East of England

Excellent lunch, could only manage two courses, there was so much on the plate, the staff, Shelley and Ali, make this a warm friendly place to come and enjoy your meal. Looking forward to my next visit, this is indeed a hidden gem.

My friend and I could not find anywhere in the town centre for lunch and came across The Glass House by accident so decided to pop in. We were pleasantly surprised by the comfortable seating and privacy as we sat left of the door. Staff are polite and attentative. Food was freshly made, very reasonably priced and tasted fantastic!! A bottle of fizzy water cost £1.. Yes I know I was shocked too!! 2 x luxury panini, 3 huge slices of coffee & walnut cake, 1 slab of chocolate cake, pot of tea, hot chocolate and a 500ml bottle of fizzy water came to £18 Absolutely excellent place to eat and will be returning!! P.S we didn't eat all the cake, took some home for the boys

This is the best cocktail bar EVER, the cocktails are the best I have ever tasted, the staff are lovely and welcoming each time we go. This is my favourite place …a proper little gem ❤️❤️

generally the worst food i’ve ever eaten there was hair in our food and has made us all be extremely ill and can’t get off the toilet

Disappointing all round really. Cod didn't taste or look particularly fresh, and the batter was overly salty and drenched in grease. Chips were cooked okay, but had a stale taste, as if the oil had been used a few too many times. It's cheaper than other fish and chip options in the town, but you get what you pay for. In fact, there's no reason to go here whilst Oysters and Mick's exist - I'd pay a bit extra and go to one of those two instead.

Sadly this shop has nothing to do with MANZE of London. So don’t be fooled this is MANZE’S the Original is MANZE.

Fresh & hot fish and chips. Had it delivered and the portion size was massive. Fish was fresh and all very hot. Compliments were due definitely be ordering again.

Food was nice, properly cooked and served hot but portions are childrens sizes. Not good value for money at all. And they tried to take my glass before I finished my drink. No happy as its not cheap in here!

Excellent meal last night and great service.Had scotch egg starter that was amazing then s steak main also very good. Nice decor also would thoroughly recommend

Best Kebab House in Braintree! Lovely fish & chips too! Staff are very nice and polite.

Popped in for some lunch. Really really busy and cramped - tables are far too close together so people are falling into you to get past. Food ok - staff a bit disorganised and didnt get the orders quite right. Steak bake I had a bit average -- wasnt all that. Needs improvements.

On such a hot Saturday afternoon whilst walking around the green after lunch at The Fox we needed an ice cream! The coffee ice cream is highly recommend.

Spoooons! What do you expect...
