Beauvoir Arms - Chelmsford

Good service, good food and wine, we were all very happy with everything, we all had something different, and we all enjoyed what we had, there is also plenty of parking.

The venue was almost empty when we arrived at 1300 on a Sunday. Huge restaurant took a while to order. Though waiter gave us about 15 seconds before asking for drinks order! My starter of fried calamari felt like it came out about 30 seconds too early. My main was a veal Daltimbovca, the Italian ham used was too salty and massively impacted upon the flavour. The potatoes and veg were very nice. My partner did enjoy her main and starter. For dessert I had exceptionally good pancakes!

Not the best experience or food if I am totally honest. As I entered the bar area i didn't quite know where the restaurant was, there were no signs.. I walked further down and could see the restaurant. I waited at the front to be seen to but no-one approached me, so i made my way back to the bar and explained i had a booking. I was told to take a seat at the bar. As i was waiting I could see guests were leaving after a wake. I did wait a good few minutes for our table, after asking if we can be seen to our table.. the restaurant area was still in a mess after the wake.. no tables were set up. So my friend and i went back to the bar and waited. When we finally sat down we were served. Food did arrive quickly.. Food was ok, not the best flavour or presentation.. especially the ravioli which was the most disappointing dish. There was no ambience in the restaurant.. no gentle background music or anything. The service was very good, all waiters seemed friendly and helpful. Pub itself looked quite nice once tidied and with candles lite during the evening.

Had a lovely meal here yesterday. Food was well cooked, delicious and plentiful. Excellent service and value. Will be back soon.

Ate here two weeks in a row, lovely food and very clean dining area. Staff very good and prices very reasonable too. Will definitely visit again soon
