The best restaurants serving British food in Birch and Winstree Colchester East of England

What a find. The food here is fresh tasting, seasoned well cooked from scratch and really appealed to my palate. This place is slightly set back from the road and was a little difficult to find. A big sign outside would benefit it as the current signage is not quite positioned to see it as you drive. Starter for me was Tolleshunt Knights fresh mushrooms on toast. Before the starter was served we were given complimentary small potato with bacon and maple syrup- delicious ! Main course was salmon and green beans-seasoned excellently and was served hot and fresh Desert was sticky toffee pudding- light & fluffy sponge, very good Our waitress was Abby who was very polite, friendly and professional Thank you Chef and Abby . See you again soon

If you are an Aunt Bessie fan, then this is spot on! The food was edible but I am certain that everything came straight from the freezer and none (or very little) was home made/cooked.

Lovely pub with friendly and helpful staff, great atmosphere and decor, we went with friends and we all had delicious meals. We are looking forward to our next visit!
