The best restaurants serving British food in Uttlesford East of England

Seriously top quality food here , only ever had a breakfast last year here , was staying local again so had the cod loin, wife had pork belly . All so flavoursome, plentiful and succulent. All homemade and it shows , best meal eaten in a long time

First time I have been here. We went for a family birthday lunch, 14 of us. We were the only customers! (Presumably they have most customers at night?). I must say I was impressed with the venue, everything covered in white, looked ready for a wedding reception. The staff were very attentive, the food was excellent - and plenty of it. For what we got it was reasonably priced, and we all agreed we will certainly go here for lunch again.

Excellent food, service and welcome. The salads are wonderful. Fresh and good quality ingredients. I’m a healthy eating freak and don’t go for toasties and paninis so a delicious and healthy salad is a rare and welcome option that isn’t offered at a lot of eating places. Their menu is varied catering to different tastes. Oh and their cakes are to die for when you fancy a sweet treat. Book to avoid disappointment as this place is very popular!

Honestly quite shocked how the cook talks to people, shouting at someone in full view and hearing of everyone telling them to use old potatoes, swearing away at his staff and calling them idiots. Table was absolutely filthy, really gone downhill.

Milkshakes were brilliant, ordered the chocolog pancakes which on the menu states it comes with some chocolate log unfortunately neither turned up with any on the plate, when I mentioned it at the till got a half bothered apology and was still charged full price, which is a shame because if they had run out I would have like to have being told but to not even discount the puddings due to missing item seems poor customer service to me, was going to go for breakfast there tomorrow but think I will give it a miss now, which is a shame cos the menu does look great.

Walked all the way from Great Easton expecting to get lunch. Only to be told they haven't been doing food since January. Pity they can't update their website so everyone knows. Have been here several times before but won't be going again.

The best pie and mash by far, me and pie and mash have been life long friends ,I admit I have strayed from Mazies but always return as this is and has always been the mutts knuts .God bless you Tim .

I have to let it be known that this little gem of a pub is not only one of the prettiest interiors of any (of many!) pubs that we go to - it's beautifully decorated, it is also one of the cleanest, with staff being super quick to clean tables and seating areas as people come and go, which is no mean feat given that they are very welcoming of canine companions and that they are pub surrounded by many beautiful walkways. I've never seen it look for one moment anything short of spotless. I've been taking my weim pup to this pub since last Summer and they've seen her go through the stages of too cute to 'complete and utter 'two and a half handful' where I've had to put all my efforts in to managing her (she is 100% typical of her breed!), they might they have been so patient, calm and lovely to her and us. Thank you for being a lovely place to go, team F&H

This place is amazing, food was super

We had an amazing Sunday roast today at the Dog and Duck, 1 beef and 1 pork. Huge portions, loads of veg, and a great cauliflower cheese thrown in as a bonus, the roast potatoes were spot on too, always a good measure on a roast dinner out! Food and plates were piping hot, bonus points for that too service was great, lovely girls, and a really nice chilled atmosphere. We shared a chocolate fudge cake desert, which was to die for, definitely food coma inducing. The best roast I've had out in a long time, well done ✔️

Went as a family of four on a Friday early evening. Wasn't greeted before others arriving after us. Sat at table and drinks and meal orders were fine. Food was good and everybody happy. Then after plates cleared away we were left alone for quite some time hoping to see a dessert menu or get more drinks but after half an hour decided to leave and had to go to the bar to get the bill paid. Then generally ignored on way out. Don't know if this is a locals only pub but service was lacking.

Lovely staff- welcoming and the food is amazing!! Would defo stay again

Found this gem of a pub after scouring through trip advisor. Lovely cosy pub vibe . 5 star home cooked food, kids meals were large and kids were extremely happy. The roast was amazing and the deserts were delicious. The staff were unbelievable friendly and so helpful.

Great food and well presented. Only issue was stale cheese biscuits. Professional, friendly and accommodating staff. Good value. We shall return.

Very friendly welcome. Good choice for Sunday Roast. Homemade Scotch Egg very enjoyable. Generous portions for roast which we all enjoyed. Nice atmosphere.
