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.
I stopped briefly here to escape the M11.
It's a nice quiet and civilised place to stop. I had a refreshing drink and used the loos which were clean and tidy.
The menu looked good and there were lots of diners which is always a good sign.
Almost don't want to post a review as too many visitors will detract from this gorgeous little pub. We go back to it frequently as it's so consistent. Once the front patio area is finished it'll be an epic summer destination. Both food and drink are of great quality and terrific value for money and the staff are always welcoming and attentive.
Quaint old fashioned styled pub but with a modern menu. The burger of the month was massive and especially liked the deep fried Jalapenos inside. Toilets could have been cleaner.
Lovely pub lunch. Ideal for a Saturday lunch. Only downer was they served hot food on cold plates (again)
Superb lunch. Cute pub. Fabulous staff.
The salt beef sandwich and lush chips were so good.
Pub dog was a bonus.
A very friendly pub. An excellent choice on the menu. ,with good special board!. Sunday's roast excellent!3
Not been for a couple of years but owners are making a lot of improvements lovely pub food and service hopefully won't go down the trendy road like other pubs in area ps dog friendly 👍
