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

What a hidden gem !! A wonderful little restaurant, the staff were lovely, attentive and nothing was too much trouble. The choice of food would cater for almost everyone - we both opted for curry which was excellent As for the puddings - the bread and butter pudding & crème brulee were our choices - highly recommended. Lee was polite / friendly answered all our questions. We would definitely recommend this restaurant - 10/10

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

Im a regular here, have been going for years, their food tastes good, place is kept clean and the staff are friendly and provide excellent service. It's not expensive, which also makes it a bargin

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.

Stopped by the other day for a few drinks after work, team were really friendly and the drink section was really good. I didn’t eat but the food I saw looked great. I will have to visit again some time!

I think about this place so often. I went with my parents a while ago and I forgot to write a review! The best food I have ever eaten. I see a lot of people say this place is over priced, I think the price reflects the great quality of the food. It’s so homey too. I will definitely be back. regards, an extremely happy customer. 😁

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.

This is essentially our local, we visit most weekends, usually for some breakfast and and a pint of ale. The food is generally ok, but tends to be very hit and miss. Some days, it's great. Other days, it's sliding towards awful. The service is the same, depending on who is working. There are some lovely lads and lasses there, but conversely, some seem to need an attitude readjustment, you aren't doing us a favour by serving us, it's your job. All round, great value for money and on the whole, good service.
