Just enjoyed a wonderful birthday lunch for my partner in this fab restaurant, Square 1. Fantastic service from three girls who were watching, unobtrusively, all around the restaurant to make sure nothing was amiss for the diners. Nicely laid tables, albeit minimalistic, but it worked against the dark wood background. We ordered three different roasts and they arrived together, Plates laden with succulent meats and al dente veggies, accompanied by a wonderful Yorkshire. Roast potatoes followed in ample quantity. Little pots of various sauces were put on the table. All of it delicious which was proven by the empty plates that were returned. Sweets followed of the chosen strawberry Eton Mess and waffles. All delicious. My choice was cheese board with, I will say, a home made relish to die for.The whole meal was fantastic. Service was second to none. A lovely family atmosphere as the restaurant gradually filled with families and small, well behaved, children. Nice to see.

We are an independant coffee shop and eatery located at Thremhall park. Surrounded by 12 acres of parkland with free parking the coffee shop has a very relaxed atmosphere. Hatfield Forest can be accessed from here so why not come in for coffee and cake or

The location is wonderful and this Sunday we counted 23 bikes parked up. Due to such a massive influx of riders the service was slow as the staff numbers were somewhat limited.However, this doesn't excuse the same disappointment that we had a few visits ago that when the coffee was served up it was not hot enough. This really isn't good enough and it was only because they were so busy we didn't complain. Chatting to other cyclists who are regular visitors, they also thought the coffee was often a hit or miss affair.Hi Paul, Thank you for taking the time to leave a review, we welcome all the feedback we receive as it helps us to see what we are doing well, and what we could be doing better. We're sorry to hear that on this occasion the service we gave you wasn't to our usual high standards, we would welcome the opportunity to make it up to you on your next visit. Kind regards,The Coffee Shop team

It might be after closure while I am writing this but they are probably too polite to tell me. I've had the swordfish which is extremely good (I've never had swordfish before but if this is the reference level I dare people too come close). The hosts are very friendly and like too strike up a conversation. If you want to go to an English pub go here

If thereâs time before your flight or business meeting, why not explore this lovely part of Essex? After a delicious meal at Thyme, we recommend a trip to Stansted Mountfitchet Castle or a stroll through Hatfield Forest. The historic market town of Bishop

Reviewed By Ann P
This is not the most welcoming of pubs - no welcome, no smile from the publican nor the waiting staff. Not cosy at all. Food (a beef roast) was awful, tough beef, (you could have soled your boots) soggy veg, undercooked roasties, bland mash and sacrilege a soggy Yorkshire pud. The steak apparently was better but the battered onion rings needed onion and the pepper sauce needed less pepper. The gov could not wait to get rid of us. I wonât be visiting again.

Decided to eat out locally rather than have airport hotel dinner and we were not disappointed. Last minute decision so lucky to get a table as we did not book. Sampled the 2 course menu and enjoyed a crispy duck salad and mini cod bites with homemade tartare on crested peas. Followed with pan fried sea bass which was excellent.Affagato desert shared was an indulgence!Thank you ever so much for this wonderful review. We are happy we could provide you with the food and service you expected. Please do let us know what we could have done to obtain a 5* review. We hope to see you again soon.

We have been here once before - and the food and service was more than enough to make us come back.I would definitely recommend the food here - and the location is spot on if youâre flying from Stansted. We had pie and burger - both were homemade and cooked to perfection.We will be back!Glad you enjoyed your food.... see you next time you're flying from Stansted
