Super dinner at the Bakers Arms very recently. Great food & service will certainly come again and recommend to others.

One of the best places in Colchester for breakfast. Staff are really friendly and helpful, food is great and the bubble and squeak is delicious. Have been here several times, including lunch where as a group of 20, we celebrated a significant birthday, the food and welcome never disappoints.

Met friends for breakfast.They chose the barn breakfast which was well presented very tasty & value for money. My friend & I had scone & cake & they were excellent. The only downside I feel is the vegetarian options are somewhat limited at lunch time

A lovely atmosphere. The food came out very hot and the staff were very pleasant, helpful and they came back to check on us after our food arrived.

Absolutely fantastic experience. Service was absolutely fantastic. Very friendly staff and always happy to help. Plenty of space for kids to play with open land and kids playground. Very friendly people around also which is great. Drinks were good, like most decent pubs. Foods was good. Not amazing but good for the price. Good value. If food was better they would have to charge more .

A slightly disappointing meal. My husband and I both chose to eat the coronation chicken wrap. I asked for mine without coriander and was told it was already made up. I assumed they meant the coronation chicken mixture was already made up. I said it was fine, I’d just pick it out! My husband asked for his wrap without lettuce and once again was told it was already made up. We then realised they meant the actual wraps were already made. In which case, £12 is quite a lot of money for essentially a pre-made cold sandwich that isn’t made fresh. It came with ‘dressed leaves’ and nothing else. For the price, again you’d expect a few crisps or chips to be included. Everything tasted fine, just surprising they don’t make the wraps up fresh for each order.

Had a lovely lunch with my husband, for his birthday. Food very nice, as was everything else. Staff lovely too.

Good food present service and timely. Checked all was well but no left to our own privacy. My friend had limited choice because of an dairy intolerance, perhaps more choice for her on the desserts.

Lovely food and friendly staff. The pub is beautiful inside, very warm and welcoming

Great Sunday roast, friendly staff, good atmosphere, not too noisy.

Great staff, delicious food and a brilliant atmosphere. I would highly recommend!

Was made to very welcome and accommodated our requirements regarding comfort in the restaurant. Food was amazing and such generous portions! Service was top notch! Thoroughly recommend to eat here.

We had dinner at The Bakers Arms, for a birthday celebration. The service was amazing, the staff couldn’t do enough for us and our meals were lovely. We both agreed we should return again very soon.

Great restaurant. We went for a birthday celebration . One of the most underrated places in the village. The food is really good and the staff exceptional and its good value for money.

One of my favourite places to meet up with friends and share some lovely food. Relaxed environment, friendly service, just perfect!

We have been coming here for lunch for several years and always been happy with the food, Unfortunately on our last visit we noticed a difference, My friend is vegetarian which has never been a problem before. The selection now is very different, she was told she could have cheese on toast salad or chips !

My “Go To” place. This is such a lovely welcoming place. Whatever the day or weather. My husband and I come here. I come here with friends and family. I have even been here with my friends from a choir I belong to. Whatever the reason - you are always made to feel welcome. The selection of food is very good. Whatever your taste or budget. I would highly recommend.
