Had a lovely lunch of proper homemade soup and a filled sandwich. Very good, beer excellent. Very good value for money. Staff very friendly too. It also has it's own car park which we found after we had paid for the car park near the rear of the pub!

There are some negative reviews on here about the time food takes to come. Iâd say waiting 35 minutes while you chat to your loved ones waiting for a delicious roast dinner is actually all part of the experience and not really a wait at all. Weâve been here 3 times in the past 2 months and the food is absolutely lovely. Iâm not someone that goes too crazy about food in general but my wife and I both think the chips here are probably the nicest weâve had anywhere ever! High praise indeed.I highly recommend this place!

visited this restaurant today and was not impressed. The chef clearly had enough of people questioning the menu as prior to my order, another diner was questioning the contents of diary and soya for her young child. I then questioned regarding gluten as I am coeliac. Despite me telling the waitress of my condition, the chef made comments regarding allergies. 1. Whatâs wrong with people and2. We should give people laxatives This establishment clearly does not take dietary requirements seriously to joke in such a way. I will never trust this restaurant again which is a shame as I am local and was a frequent diner prior to today.Dear Jemma,Thank you for visiting The Angel. We are sorry to hear of your experience and have investigated with the kitchen regarding what was said. The chefs have assured me that nothing was said in this way regarding customers but that on that same day there were comments that were being made amongst themselves which could have been construed as negative towards people with allergies. We take allergies very seriously as a company and do all we can to accommodate people who suffer from them. I hope this can explain a little and that you may return to see us again. Should you like to discuss this more please e-mail [email protected].

This historic coaching inn dates back to the 1700s and has been a traveller's retreat and local favourite ever since. The Saracen's Head was newly refurbished in May 2012 and is now thriving as the heart of Great Dunmow. With cozy spots near the open fire

We go here fairly regulary. Why? For several reasons. (1) It is a lovely venue, both the bar and the restaurant are inviting and well furbished. (2) The staff are brilliant! Very efficient and welcoming but friendly and chatty at the same time. (3) They currently have a very good chef. The menu is not huge and varies from time to time and if you are lucky the choice is sometimes more 'interesting' than others. I say if you are lucky because what we have seen as the more interesting items can be replaced by more run of the mill choices. That said everything that comes out of the kitchen is superb and nicely presented. The fish and the chips are the best we have ever tasted.Lunchtimes, which is when we prefer to eat out, are surprisingly quiet (except Thursdays which is Rotarians lunch) for the quality of the venue and the food and drink, not forgetting the quite reasonable prices for it all. This to my mind should be one of the most popular and humming places in Dunmow to eat or drink or both - and of course it probably is in the evenings when we have yet to visit. There are several themed evenings advertised in the bar.

I feel quite sad that we have been so many times to eat here and was looking forward to the âgin and jazz evening â Iâm not sure if they were short of staff or just disorganised but I honestly felt it was not worth the money this visit. If you advertise a âgin eveningâ you have to step up to what you offer and the gins certainly did not match what it said on the menu. No additions to the gin not even lemon - I had to ask. We had to wait 40 minutes for starters, ask for cutlery for main and dessert and for a drink that wasnât brought to the table out of 4 drinks ordered. Also repeatedly asked for table water. We then had an additional wait of 30 minutes for mains and when we decided to have ice cream for dessert the âscoopsâ were tiny for the money.The music was ok not really jazz and we came away really disappointed as we have had such positive meals here before.

Why is it when we find a great pub it's a few miles away from home? I would love a local like this as we would spend a lot of time there. The landlord and landlady are very welcoming and friendly. After our meal we had coffee in the bar and they and the locals chatted to us. This place is half an hour away from us but we will make the effort to go when we can. Apparently the Sunday roast is very good so that will be our next visit. Our first visit was the Saturday before mothers day for lunch. We really enjoyed the food which was well cooked and plentiful. One course was enough really but the puddings are to nice to miss. I had the steak and kidney pud with lemon sorbet to finish and hubby had the steak with fruit crumble to finish. All were excellent and very filling. Di, the waitress, deserves a mention as she was helpful, enthusiastic and enhanced the pubs atmosphere

We are a cozy country pub. We serve good home cooked food. We have a cosy, warm bar with real ale and an open fire, a lovely dining room and a large beer garden. We also have B&B rooms available.

Beautiful old pub, full of charm and character. Laid back service, which can make for a relaxed and unhurried visit. Staff are friendly. Food was delicious. Pan fried salmon was perfectly done, goats cheese salad was refreshing and light, and the sausage and mash were full of flavour. I can imagine this pub to be unbelievably cozy in the winter. Definitely a regular now! Great to hear weâre now a âregularâ. Look forward to seeing you again. Thanks for your comments.
