The best restaurants serving British food in Waltham Abbey South West Epping Forest East of England

went to my favourite eating place in Waltham Abbey for my 75th Birthday Bash. 12 of us ate mains and desserts. They have alcoholic drinks as well as shakes, coffees and teas, Smoothies and tinned drinks, also ice cream. We had a wonderful time, good food, good service and good friends - what more could you want?

One of the best pubs I have ever been to. The owner was extremely accommodating and lovely. Locals are nice and welcoming! Owner even gave me some wood and kindling as I had run out on my houseboat! Definitely recommend this place and will be back!! Thank you all!

My husband always wanted to try Pie and Mash so yesterday we did. We got there for about 12 noon and was surprised to see it already getting full. Luckily we found a table. for. I went up to order and was surprised at the presentation. It looked like they had scoped the mash using the plate itself and mash was over the plate and hubby said it tasted school dinner mash. The pie ok, the liquor was tasteless. (I didn’t mind it). So why have we given it a four- staff we nice and polite, restaurant was clean. Drinks were at very good price and to be honest so the meal itself. If you are in the neighbourhood and want a cheap meal, then this Might be the place for you. Would not rule Out going back, but not in a hurry to.

Lovely, cosy, local pub, lovely warm atmosphere, great service and food was delicious and a hearty portion.

I know I have put visited in. May 2022 but the last time I visited was back in 90s, & no later dates to put in. was visiting the area with my ex husband family & stop off at phillpotts, not sure if they still bake the scones on premises but they use to make the scones, & jam themselves back then The best cream tea I've ever tasted, shame they don't do a phillpotts in newcastle as I moved back to my hometown It was still owned by one of the phillpotts family back them, a remember a guy with dark hair beard & glasses , but I was in my mid 20s then in the 90s Recommend such a lovely place & I do recommend the cream teas 👌👌👌
