The best restaurants serving British food in Harlow East of England

This is my local coffee shop , all the staff are friendly and a real community feel . Great coffee and great cakes .

Really friendly and helpful staff. Very good meal.

Wonderful service as always staff and students very polite and friendly. Food was superb steaks were absolutely amazing. Had a lovely lunch with our daughter. Highly recommend and such great value.

Went here for a breakfast no salt or pepper or any thing on tables paid £9 for a breakfast no tea or coffee inc was very basic food and not much of it. I have had many breakfast.s all over and this was the worst so far

Lovely relaxed meal. Menu had lots of choices, everything ass beautifully cooked and service impeccable. A really enjoyable evening.

Beautiful restaurant, and the food was amazing!! Everything was cooked perfectly and service was outstanding!! Will definitely be back 👌🏻

Friendy staff welcoming really warm cosy pub

I would highly recommend a visit to the Green Man Old Harlow. Lovely food, lovely atmosphere and a lovely waitress (Sophia). Couldn’t fault it.

Asked for a large chips with no salt. Got a regular chips if that with salt. Won't be going there again. £3.85 for nothing, you get double the amount in most places.

We had a lovely waitress named Amy and she made our night absolutely lovely, she was so attentive and kind, she made our experience even better! The food was also absolutely amazing!

Picked the cookhouse + pub as a pit stop during a long drive (France to Yorkshire) on 04.01.25 - Reasonably close to the M11 and had Tesco next door for fuel. Warm welcome on entrance and were advised immediately they were having some supply issues and the menu wasn’t fully available, still a variety to choose from. We were asked about allergies, I have recently discovered issues with gluten and whilst I can tolerate smaller amounts it’s easier to eat GF, I was given a printed allergen list to help me order. I asked if it was possible to amend another menu item and after a quick check with the kitchen it was agreed. Only 2 staff working the restaurant, it wasn’t busy but they were both working tirelessly. Food was served fresh and promptly and can’t fault the service at all. Will bear this place in mind for future was worth the short detour from the motorway to get a proper meal and not fast food from the services.

Great local pub, food pretty good but some areas not so good for tall people

Great staff, bland food. I ordered the festive burger and although it was packed and stacked with food, it was all very tasteless. Oddly only one strange of onion in the burger. My wife ordered the veggie burger, she said it was to moist and again completely tasteless. And again a single strand of onion! Is there an onion shortage that we didn’t know about? Overall nice location close to some nice walks, but we won’t be returning.

Lovely pub at the town centre with lots of space

Had Joe/ the grinch he was very welcoming and provided good service. Was funny and a lot of help and checking on us throughout the evening
