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 .

Went for Sunday carvery. Food was excellent. Server Debbie/Fruitcake was very helpful and welcoming. Will definitely be returning.

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

I must say it is a lovely venue and booked after the great reviews and at short notice The service lacked a bit 3 people seemed to be waiting on several tables and had a long wait between courses Great atmosphere but my partner was a bit miffed when my glass of wine was topped up and his wasn’t Oppps TBH my beef dish was a bit chewy and our sides were delivered after we had eaten most of our mains The fish dish was amazing said partner so 50/50 review

Pretty mixed experience - between two of us we had six of the tapas options. A couple of them were very nice (Cauliflower especially good and also enjoyed the Patatas Bravas) but most were somewhere between poor and mediocre. The squid was pretty obviously frozen and the prawns were fairly tasteless in a very anaemic sauce. Also took around 45 minutes to arrive (although granted it was a saturday evening). Place felt somewhat short staffed as well and found the decor a bit odd, as though someone had been to a car boot sale/charity shop and purchased every cheap painting they could find and put it up in any old random order. Very weird. Overall not the best and probably won't be back, but there were some decent dishes and it wasn't inedible just not great.

Early doors and empty so difficult to rate atmosphere, but nice enviroment.

I've stayed at The Green Man several times for work trips. The rooms are clean and comfortable, and the team is always helpful and friendly. Last time, I accidentally booked the room for the wrong week, but Laura and Emily were incredibly helpful and kind. They quickly sorted everything out, and I was able to stay in a room that night! Thank you, ladies—you’re the best! I’ll definitely be back soon!"

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.

Had an absolutely lovely dinner for my birthday with my husband, even got a free Prosecco. Amy our waitress was fabulous, nothing was too much trouble at all. A fantastic experience

Lovely little pub, great food and the bar staff are all really friendly

The lady we had serving us was lovely we didn’t get her name but it was 2:30pm on Wednesday 5th march definitely deserves a pay rise always working hard whenever we come in here!

If you’re looking for good food and good service, look somewhere else, they seem to have misplaced both. Young lady behind the bar completely disinterested, other bar lady just irritated, drinks put straight into a puddle of some drink not mopped up, had to request a tray which, when provided was too small for the drinks purchased. Nachos made with pizza sauce, not salsa and topped with fresh coriander 🤢, chicken undercooked, sweetcorn in a green salad and when served, the ramekin of sauce was IN the salad. Coleslaw was watery and tasted horrible. Coffee was awful. Very understaffed for a Saturday afternoon with good weather. Absolutely ridiculous excuse for a disabled toilet.

Easy place for people to .wet up have a drink and some food.. can't be too loud of security start walking around near you as if your about to start a brawl well that was from my last experience.. can see staff are under pressure sometimes.. service with a smile never goes a miss.. oh and should highlight what side is the smoking side outside for people that do not know

Went for breakfast. Dry food. Dirty plates. No tea bags Visited for a breakfast before flying out of Stansted. Was about 10 am. We thought as it’s TC we knew what we were getting hence the choice. The staff were less than welcoming. We felt more of an inconvenience. The plates were dirty . Lots of them in the piles left for us by the servery. Presume a problem with the dishwasher. When and many others mentioned it they seemed irritated they needed to get clean ones. The food was ok. But a bit overcooked. Which was a shame as there were lots of customers in there so not sure why things were left out for a long time. They had also run out of tea bags. They had to borrow some from The hotel next door. They arrived after about 20 mins and we had finished our breakfast. All in all, a disappointing experience.
