The best restaurants serving British food in Chelmsford East of England

It is a fantastic hidden countryside pub set for all ages and tastes. Great decor, tasty food, and very friendly staff.

Went to watch football. Only 2 staff on people ordering drinks and food. Could of done with more staff. Had to wait 20 minutes to be served. People who came after me got served first. Drink people shouldn't of been served more drinks. As it did kick off.

Grate place. Lively stuff. Good prices. Im sure we’ll back soon

Luke was great, was very friendly and served me and my date and we had a lovely time under his service.

The breakfast is ok. Don’t know why there is so many set breakfasts with chip? Cheap catering sausages and produce, service is great apart from who I think is the owner who could do with some customers service training. It’s not really value for money unfortunately, just a few extra touches would help

Always a worry visiting a cafe when one of your party is coeliac, but the staff were so knowledgeable, separate prep areas, good range of choice. Highly recommend, especially on a sunny day which we were lucky enough to have. Thank you

Not been to what was a lovely little lunch spot for some time but what a price hike! Prices online did not reflect those on the menu. Lemon cake dry & brick-like despite cream & fruit. Tiramisu very rich & sweet, unable to finish either. Coffees very expensive too. Very disappointed that practically all lunch options £10-£20 at least!!

We have been collecting Fish & Chips from The Bakers Arms since the start of Covid which has always been fantastic. Tonight on the recommendation of my son, we went and ate in and oh my god, I didn’t think it could get any better but it was amazing. Can’t believe that not having to unwrap them would make such a difference. Well done #TeamBakersArms. Sorry no photos as was too hungry.

Ordered the combination kebab deal which is advertised as two full kebabs with breads. Asked for one chicken and one lamb. Got given this with only one bread so seems really light on fillings. Avoid the kebabs from here

Yummy food and incredible waiter (Adam)

I came here to meet a few work colleagues for coffee and cake. The coffee was very nice but we were a bit disappointed by the selection of cakes (where was the Carrot cake which looks so nice on the website?) which were quite limited. The staff were quite friendly but they soon cleared our table once we had finished and they seemed to in a hurry for us to leave which was a shame as we would have stayed longer than an hour. As it was when we left, at 12.10, there were no other customers there - despite it being Lunch-time on a Friday - so it would not have mattered if we had stayed longer. On paying the bill, the prices were quite high for what we had (£7 for a coffee and an average slice of cake) so quite disappointing really and nothing special.

Full marks had my dads wake on Tuesday could not fault the fabulous spread of food they prepared catered for everyone's requirements, the ladies that were working that day were there if we needed anything, also served the best Sunday lunch, thank you .

first time we have visited this harvester as a midway point and had a excellent experience. waitress Dee was very polite and helpful. our food came out quickly, tables kept clear, swept the floor after the kids, the food made by Sam was fantastic. very fast and efficient service and will certainly come back again.

Very nice pretty pub, my favourite pub on the high street i would say

I went with family, and sat inside, the tables need to be be cleaned and old food taken away quicker then they were, there is nothing worse then having to sit with dirty plates in front of you. Once the order was taken food came fairly quickly, I had fish and chips .the fish was lovely, although I did find a bone the chips were plentiful although some were discoloured which was a bit off putting, Overall it wasn’t bad and I’d give it another try. The price I thought was good.
