Restaurants in Loughton

Been coming here for about ten years, probably 1/2 dozen times a year. Always enjoyed our visit. Last time there was in Jan or Feb. Felt a difference this time. Different vibe, different menu, indifferent response from my wife and I. Menu change, the roast dinner (which we usually go for) had changed. Not as good as usual and when we realised the pub was half empty and wasn’t going to get any busier, as it usually does, we wondered if it was just us, who were disappointed. We’ll go again, just to check if it was a one off. Come on The Owl, why change a winning formula?

We enjoyed an excellent pizza at this country pub. The service was great and the garden is a great setting to while away a summer afternoon.
