The best restaurants serving British food in Braintree East of England

Always welcoming. I'm an outsider visiting local friends for many years

Food is so fresh and amazing im 9rs old and i was going to get my lunch there so friendly 😃 I highly recommend

Food carts in the back are brilliant but it's not a cosy pub and seems a bit "old boys"!

We had the perfect meal here to celebrate our anniversary (26 years, how have we done it, hahaha). We arrived and enjoyed a glass of sparkling wine and the padron peppers (they were amazing) while we considered what to have for dinner. We didn't feel rushed to order, and the service was excellent from the young members of waiting staff. I had the chicken & bacon pot pie with mash and my wife had the Pork dish. Both were exquisite 👌 We were sorry we didn't have dessert because tge option looked amazing. I really enjoyed my visit and i look forward to returning. I reckon this restaurant could offer a monthly Jazz evening with a set menu midweek, if the owners are reading this then please consider some events.

A favourite pub to stop at after we have dropped our caravan off at a nearby storage facility. Staff are pleasant and friendly. Food is mainly cooked to order. My personal favourite meal is lambs liver and bacon. It's always nicely cooked. Their Sunday roasts are good too.

Stayed in the nearby village Feering, got recommended The Angel by a few locals it did not disappoint, very welcoming of us and our dogs, really nice vibe within the pub. Food was incredible, 3 of us had the roast beef and one had the pie (highly recommend) Jack who was our waiter couldn't do enough for us and was polite throughout

It was a pleasure to be at thr re-opening of the Horse & Groom. We attended Friday Saturday and popped back on Sunday too, each time we were greeted warmly each time, served with lovely wine and real ales. The atmosphere was great with some fantastic live entertainment. Can’t wait for them to begin serving food later this year. Great start Matt & Mike, looking forward to seeing you again soon

Had a lovely evening in the Orange Tree yesterday. The staff were friendly and chatty. The pub, despite having been busy during the day, was clean and welcoming. The food was well presented and well cooked and great value for money. Well done!

Had a wonderful meal at Caesars last week; everything was perfect. 6 of us went and all the plates went back clean; an excellent selection of drinks and lovely staff. Highly recommend.

Amazing breakfast bap at an extremely reasonable price. Highly recommend and can’t wait to go back and try the delicious looking cake 🍰

Lovely friendly service from Amy! Beautiful selection of food! Buzzing atmosphere inside with plenty of space between tables

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

The people serving were really helpful , we tried different things that were on the menu. The place inside is spacious and has charm. Will visit again

The coffee and cake are really delcious at this cafe and the farm shop is very good too with a big choice of fresh and frozen food.

Best pie and mash lve had in years. Absolutely gorgeous. Always perfect food, Great service Friendly atmosphere Molly loves it too
