Nice old pub with a real wood fireplace, making it very atmospheric in winter. It also has outdoor seatings during summer. Food is decent and reasonably priced, service friendly. We have been using it regularly. Collection of photos from multiple visits
Dropped in here for lunch after visiting garden centre just down the road and seeing M11 was stopped with traffic. Smallish pub but with outside space also with lots of character serving amazing food, got a warm welcome when stepping through the door and seated quickly. Interesting menu and also a specials board with some great options. I had steak and kidney pie which was lovely with large pieces of beef and a rich gravy. The chips were lovely and crispy on the outside but soft on the inside and the peas still had great flavour and colour so not standing in water for ages. Shame it is not really local for us but would visit again if we are in the area and looking for grub.
Fabulous lunch for five. Grilled Sea Bass was perfection and my Slow Cooked Belly Pork was melt in the mouth and absolutely scrumptious, crackling crispy and a real delight, beautiful cider gravy and fresh green beans, carrots and new potatoes.
All the chips were crunchy on the outside and molten in the middle.
Wine fresh and crisp, the Pacific? IPA excellent.
Our hosts were loveliness itself, kind and considerate specially as two of us can hardly walk!
All in all a 92nd Birthday lunch we’ll remember forever.
Thanks to everyone at the Rainbow and Dove.
