Great food and staff. About 11 mins drive from Stansted Airport. Real food in a real country pub instead of the expensive hotel or airport option. It is under new management. We had a great lunch yesterday and was the first to use their brand new coffee machine, very nice. The lasagna and burger were perfect. See you next time we use Stansted Airport.
Lovely friendly place with nice staff and regulars alike. Dog friendly, good food and a great pint of Guinness. I highly recommend this place.
Had a voucher for the ash pub as a gift for our anniversary..went yesterday..friendly staff a good choice of food on menu .lovely restaurant room .food chosen was very tasty ..we will be back ..
Went yesterday for a meal with my family. Lovely outdoor setting. Bouncy castle, trampoline and other games are all provided for the children. Lovely food, staff very helpful and accommodating. Inside and out the pub there was a relaxed atmosphere (no blaring music.) very enjoyable afternoon. Excellent for families as well as adults.
Me and my wife absolutely love this place so much so that on the 18th August 2012 we held our wedding party here.
This place definitely has a little special place in our hearts.
The food is always cooked to perfection, and the ingredients are always 100% fresh.
The staff here will always go that extra mile and you always feel welcomed.
Just being out in the sticks with the fields all around especially in the winter when it's cold, frosty or snowy the place just feels absolutely magical.
Lovely meal here before we flew to Edinburgh for the weekend. It's about ten minute drive from Stansted Airport. Lovely staff, fantastic home cooked food and great ales and wines. Will definitely return.
Lovely staff, very friendly accommodating & patient. We had booked our meal for 6:45. Our friend was due to land at stanstead airport at 5.10pm. but sadly our friends flight was delayed by 2 hours. Oh yes, the food was great too
Amazing food , great customer service, dog and children friendly amazing place !!
Brill place to visit. Will deff be back loved my breakfast yesterday
Met my brother and family stansted while they waited for their next flight - 8 of us had fab beers, food extensive menus and tasted fresh and service lovely, highly recommend - one mile from airport ⭐️
Great dinner at The Ash! I got the fish and chips and it was delicious and big. Everyone at my table was satisfied with the food. Price is correct for quality and quantity. Service is great. I highly recommend it!
Very, VERY cozy pub for dinner. The staff was super lovely with sharing stories and history about the place. The food was brought swiftly and was in great amount and of high quality. I had the half rib for around 11£, and i was a bit concerned that the portion size wouldn't compare to the other dishes. Lucky for me the "half rib" was the size of the half the plate with a delightful salad and fries on the side. The atmosphere is cozy and it's a great place to bring children or larger groups of children. This is truly a great place for all to dine and have a smashing time
Lovely thatched pub for lunch, the fish and chips fresh and tasty, the steak pie was a delight enrobed in delicious gravy
The staff were attentive and we enjoyed our lunch, unfortunately no room a pudding and they sounded delicious thank you.

We visited again today, all 6 of us and we had a lovey lunch. Thank you.
We stayed here overnight before our flight at Stansted the next morning. Reasonable price for airport parking for a week and over night stay at only £79. Parking is located to the side of the pub and hotel was situated across the road in a converted barn. Rooms were tidy and clean. Hot water took a very very long time to come through due to the water tank being so far from the rooms. Comfortable stay. Will return.
Stayed for one-night before going to the
Airport. Comfortable and basic amenities in the room. The pub was lovely, lots of choice however, quite expensive. Staff very pleasant and check in and out was easy.
The place is very lovely to have some time to breathe and eat your breakfast or dinner, the food is surprisingly delicious and the staff are 100% making sure you’ll be fully thankfully about everything. Amazing place, will come again.
Visited Jun2021 after a 10 mile walk. Sat outside in the evening sun, gently serenaded by the sounds of Stansted Airport trying to convince the world that it was busy.
This is a Greene King pub, so the quality is controlled, you know what you are going to get. And sure enough, we got a friendly welcome, good service, well-kept beer and good, middle-of-the-road pub grub.
The pub is kitted out for families. In these slightly fake lockdown times, the pub has provided a large marquee for sheltered outside dining, filled with dozens of standard pub benches. There are also tables and chairs on a veranda for those of a middle-class persuasion.
Menu is comprehensive. The prices are typical of Greene King in the East of England.
The pub was fairly quiet on this locked-down Saturday evening, with perhaps 17 adults and 3 children visible from our garden seat during our meal. It is in a quiet village.
Beautiful thatched building, a treat to see. All the grounds were immaculate. Staff very attentive and food was cooked to perfection. I will be very happy to visit here again
Love love love this place. The Chef is absolutely brilliant with crazy generous portions, haven’t had a bad meal here. The old adage that English food is terrible does not apply at The Ash. Staff is a delight and lots of great WWII memorabilia. Highly recommend this place!
A quiet, spacious country pub, there was a small play area that kept the children entertained. Th food was fine though mine was a little tepid when it arrived. There was a very bad wasp infestation and one of my company did get stung. Good family day out had by all.

The best steak and ale pie you will find anywhere in the country (winner for the people who don't like to much pastry as its made in a bigger dish!
So good I had it two nights in a row ! Pictures to prove it.... Hand in shot /size for scale!!!!
Chips are perfect crispy vs soft.
Thanks to paul as a great host.

Lovely setting with lots of parking & just a stones throw away from Stansted Airport. Food & service was excellent. County pub feel with alfresco dining outside (could do with a few umbrellas for shade 😁) but there is two seating areas inside which are equally as nice.
We stayed at The Ash Barn as it's nicer than the local "usual brands of airport hotels". We returned a few days later and stuffed ourselves on the mega BLT they serve.
Traditional Greene King pub with generous and tasty food portions. Stayed in the annexe for 1 night, it was basic, a bit dirty but cheap.
Lovely pub and friendly manager, food was good if not some what on the pricey side, my only worry is that at 8.30 on a Thursday night there is no other customers in the pub
Popped in for a quick lunch, very friendly local welcome.
We were recommended to sit on the sun deck, this was pleasant over looking the garden watching the planes in the distance.
The area was very clean and tidy with new ratan furniture.
A really nice place to sit with a pint.
We opted for the sandwiches hoping they would be nice, we were not let down.
They were freshly made with adequate amount of fillings with a fresh side salad.
I was impressed that you got REAL off cut thick ham and got 3 halves, so pretty much on point with the cost.
We always liked the bean House cafe in the village and the management have taken over here which is reflected in the freshly cooked food and overal cleanliness and friendly staff.
I would recommend this pub to you for food, atmosphere and great place to sit outside.
There is plenty of parking too.
I'd ring them up if you are unsure of kitchen opening times.
The Ash is a nice old pub where you can sit and relax. sports shown on TV. Food is great good portion sizes
Found the gravy a little salty but other than the meal being on the large size no other complaints.
