The best restaurants in Upper Colne Braintree East of England

Proper pub and proper grub !! What gem !! Keep it up Colin!!

We had a wonderful Sunday lunch yesterday, thank you to Jan and Kevin. Fantastic food and a warm and friendly pub

Going to Tarka's is a delight. The cakes are delicious, the coffee is excellent, and the sausage rolls are second to none. You are always sure of a welcome.

My go to place on the island for Sunday lunch. Well cooked, reasonable price . Friendly staff. Nice cosy log fire .

Great pub. Superb atmosphere. Really good food. Wide range of Beers. Can’t fault it as a pub! Will be visiting regularly.

After leaving another public house due to their "policies", we decided to stop at the White Horse Ridgewell for a family meal. We were treated with smiles, given a nice spacious table in the bar area. Didn't have to wait long for our drinks order to be taken. My teenage daughter really enjoys "mocktails", they didn't have any on the menu but the lady behind the bar agreed to make one up. My daughter loved it so much she had another. This was truly going the extra mile for us. 4 of us had their burger and my son had the fish and chips. We didn't notice any wait for the food as we were playing on the pubs pool table. The food was hot and delicious. We had such a great time. So much so that we want to return soon for their Sunday lunch. Thanks for being so great !
