The New Inn - Epping Forest

Front door was locked, we had to search for around the side for an entrance. A member of the party missed the side entrance and ended up around the back where the doors were also locked. Told not to sit at the table by the bar as Sunday night regulars expected. Selection of beers OK but quite clearly don't encourage custom. Went to order a drink for the 5 of us at 10.10pm and was told that the bar closed at 10pm! Not just poor business practice but sheer bad manners.

Great old fashioned pub with good selection of beers (real and other) and great pub food. Warm welcome, good menu and the chips are outstanding.

Nice country pub short distance from the River Stort. A group of us met up for the OAP lunch. Homemade food at its best. One lunchtime a week they do a very reasonable two course meal. The chips are crispy. The cheesecake yummy. We occupied the restaurant and occupied the room at the back with carefully laid tables sporting pretty pink linen tablecloths. It’s really friendly too. A bonus in this day and age. Everyone commented how nice and hot the food was.

A small village pub that serves a good selection of beers which pleased my husband. I’d booked for a Christmas dinner taking friends that do the “best”. They’d missed this one. A superb very tasty hot Christmas dinner with an excellent selection of vegetables. Mary, the owner served with a smile on her face all the time. Excellent value for money too. 3 courses plus coffee and a mint. Superb. Thank you. I should keep this info to myself in case you all go and “no room at the inn” for us.

You know when you fancy a traditional dinner with fresh veg? Well that’s exactly what we got. I had the lambs liver and bacon served with mash, runner beans, carrots and broccoli and hubby had steak and ale pie with the same veg and chips and gravy. Both served freshly cooked and piping hot, absolutely delicious
