The best restaurants serving British food in Epping Forest East of England

A wonderful evening of Game foods. Great wines with each dish, Amanda has a great knowledge of wines. Each dish is so well presented and the tastes are fabulous. The staff's attention to detail and friendliness is perfect. This is a restaurant you should try.

Popped in whilst on a central line pub crawl and found this hidden gem! Coffee and beers available and their menu looked delicious but we didn’t eat

Ah, qué noche, en nuestros amigos fiesta de cumpleaños. Antiguo auténticos lugar campo de golf, una buena opción y servicio de bar. Servicio de catering era buena, con un buffet de primera calidad "estándar", y agradable bar. Huevos escoceses para morirse. Sería un buen lugar para visitar sin tener que jugar al golf, el menú de comida muy buena pinta.

Attended a private function ... Great space, staff were lovely.

Another fabulous lunch very good food great service always made to feel special.

Gaynes Park is my favourite barn wedding venue in Essex! Quite the statement, I know, but it is simply amazing! I have had the absolute pleasure of photographing many beautiful weddings at Gaynes Park, and every time it blows me away just how picturesque it is, no matter the season. I truly believe it is the most personal and inviting place where you feel like the venue is yours to make unique! Couples can make the most of the stunning surroundings, while their guests enjoy the relaxed atmosphere and plenty of space to mingle. As a venue, Gaynes Park is completely accommodating, offering beautiful preparation areas, a lovely outdoor ceremony space, a timeless Orangery for the ceremony, and the barn for the wedding breakfast and party. From a photography perspective, it doesn’t get more beautiful than this. Whether it’s the iconic gardens, the picturesque Orangery, or the scenic countryside views, every detail adds charm! The team here are so lovely, and I am always super excited to return. Kindest regards, Sam Rundle Photography

We just wanted to say thank you to Ellie and her amazing team for helping us organise my darling mums wake. Ellie, Emily and the whole Queens Head family treated us with such kindness and we had a beautiful celebration of mum on the day. With love and thanks from Peter, Judy and Bryan x

You have to try the Yorkshire pudding wrap! One of us had beef, the other turkey. It arrived cut in half so we were able to have a beef and turkey each. Yum!!

RestoBistro is Epping’s best kept secret, nestled at the southern end of the high street. The food is absolutely delicious, all homemade. An independent restaurant with extremely high standards. The chef and management put on various special themed nights which are always fantastic. I particularly like the Sunday Roasts which are the best for miles around.

A very unusual menu. My crêpe with mushrooms, spinach and mozzarella was delicious, and the mug of tea stayed hot to the end. Good service. Music a bit loud.

We popped into 8 Rocks for breakfast after a Parkrun. We are pleased we did. The place was clean, staff clearing tables quickly after customers had left and were very friendly and attentive without being overbearing or making us feel rushed. The menu was expansive - we had eggs royale and a salt beef bagel - both of which were lovely. Definitely worth a visit if you are in the area.

Had a lovely Sunday Roast here today to celebrate Mother's Day, It was our first visit to this traditional local pub and we wouldn't hesitate to return. We had a delicious meal and were made to feel very welcome by the landlady Karen and barmaid Emily. We will definitely be back and will recommend to family and friends.

Very nice breakfast in a comfortable cafe ,good service with a choice of items so you can build your own breakfast nice coffee to .

Rude obnoxious little bald man nearly got a punch in the face over my parking outside the car park, will not be going back, tea is piss water as well.
