The Aviary Bar & Brasserie

My favourite place to eat the staff are really friendly the food is magnificent lovely atmosphere

The Sunday roasts were delicious. Service was excellent. Will definitely visit again

Had a great time amazing food personified cocktail and great chat

Lovely restaurant, done up really nicely, the roast was amazing! Will definitely be back again.

Great staff, great atmosphere, fantastic drinks selection. Majority of the food was brilliant apart from one dish. Although this dish not being satisfactory this did not ruin the evening at all. Really do recommend this venue highly

The roast was lovely, it was faultless, staff were very helpful Great restaurant to go and have a lovely meal Thank-you aviary will definitely recommend

Been here before and it was brilliant this time not so good. Service has gone down, food was just OK and they now had overly loud music. Still fine but more like average pub meal out

Food presentation was great and tasted amazing! All the staff members we encountered were polite, courteous, professional and a delight to deal with! Can't wait to come back.

This was a fabulous place. The service was absolutely amazing. Lovely food and presentation was first class. We were not disappointed and can’t wait to visit again. Highly recommend the Aviary.

We went on Tuesday steak night and the deal was excellent. We shared a scallop starter, then both had the 900grm ribeye medium rare. One of us had the red wine jus and the other the peppercorn sauce. The steak was perfect served with crisp fries and we ordered a green salad on the side. This was washed down with a reasonably priced Malbec from Argentina. The steaks are normally £30 each but on steak night only £20 a pop. Will definitely be returning as the service was also excellent.

A truly amazing experience, the food was fantastic and of the highest quality. Service was friendly, polite and efficient. Personally I would highly recommend this restaurant for something to eat.

Best and freshest Sunday roast in South East and attentive service

Delicious food. Served by lovely staff. A fantastic meal had by all

Gorgeous food - fab atmosphere lovely restaurant great staff excellent

Food was excellent although only 3 prawns as a starter was a bit miserly, would have expected 4/5 really for £12. Main of fish of the day was ex relent but again overpriced at £30 for fish and potato albeit with a very good sauce. If it was £8 and £25 I’d have been happier to even add some veg! My hubby’s calves lived was very good. Overall lovely ambience although not very busy for 8pm on a Saturday. Good background music and the restaurant has been refurbished very well. Give it a go if you’re not ‘with kids’.

The restaurant was nice with a great selection of background music, the food and cocktails were amazing and the waiter service was 10 out of 10

The food is absolutely delicious, highly recommend this place for everyone

Food is lovely, always is. Best food in the area. Good chef. Service however is terrible. From sitting down to being served it took 1hr 45 mins. We had children with us too. The staff so friendly but obv not enough of them on a busy day. Restaurant was full for Sunday. Also, they had a DJ. Why do restaurants presume playing loud music on a Sunday gets people in ? Good food & good service gets people in. Obviously I can’t recommend this place to anyone & thats a shame. Great potential

Lovely food, good and friendly service. Decor is really lovely.

Very nice food and wine selection Good service Recommended for good dining

Fantastic food and atmosphere - great service - just lovely

First visit , really enjoyed everything, the d j was a nice surprise too , was able to sit in the lovely outside terrace .

Ambiance, food was great. Very friendly staff only complaint is there was no other customers just 5 of us but it took a long time for them to serve our food.

Attentive staff, delicious food and cocktails. We will come back!

Got shown to our seats very promptly starters mains will probably one of the best in Essex. I’ve eaten definitely highly recommend the pork belly to start with.

Great food, lovely atmosphere, super friendly owner and his wife, very friendly and helpful and went above and beyond to make sure we had a lovely evening, made us drinks that was not in the menu, and we would definitely go back to try the roast on a Sunday, Hopefully more people go to support small local businesses as u can see they are trying super hard

Friendly staff and lovely food. Happy to recommend. Will Visit again😊

Third visit now and as before the food, atmosphere and service is exceptional. Loughton really needs this place. It’s stylish, the menu is interesting, individually owned rather than being a part of a chain. Lucien the owner is passionate and very knowledgeable about food. Altogether another excellent experience. We will be back for more.

Amazing food and service, great value for the quality of food. Amazing decor, must try, we’ve booked to come again Saturday.

Beautiful food and relaxing atmosphere and background music. Exceptional service from Roxy and a great chat with owner. We will be back very soon in the near future without a doubt. Highly recommended for quality, food and service.

Very enjoyable, very good food and service. A perfect place for a Friday evening with the girls, DJ was excellent and there is plenty of room for a little dance.

10/10. Excellent food and service. I hope more locals support it as was not busy and it deserves to do well.

First time I’ve used this restaurant and wasn’t disappointed. Portions are great and the food tasted fantastic. Will be using this restaurant again

Very good Sunday Lunch with generous portion size absolutely no complaints with the food, however did find it a little dark in there and a couple of things weren’t available , but on the whole a good experience, with very pleasant staff .

Great place. Food was really good. Only wish the truffle fries had more truffle!

Excellent in every way, beautifully decorated, low key elegance, food was delicious and not over priced, the service was impeccable. We were looking for an up market restaurant to celebrate our ruby wedding anniversary with our family and thought we would have to travel to the west end to get what we wanted, but now we will definitely be celebrating at Aviary!

Okay meal. super long wait for starters….main similar wait, underwhelmed all round !!

Beautiful setting, amazing food and great to have a DJ playing background music. A perfect evening.

Lovely restaurant, comfortable and the food and service were fabulous! Will be returning!

Lovely food. Lovely staff. No complaints at all. I'd recommend it to anyone

Food and ambiance were lovely and the staff were friendly

Really Nice food and Nice staff would 100% recommended .

We had an amazing night. There was a live singer and a caricature artist. The decor is amazing and the food was lovely. Thank you

Excellent food and service. The only criticism was how loud the music became - we were seated nearest the speaker and decided to have dessert at home as we couldn’t hear all our conversation ( we were a party of 4). We will definitely go again but will ask for table nearest the door next time!

my second visit the staff are amazing really lovely atmosphere food absolutely delicious I will be back soon love it!

The decor is tasteful but unusual. Staff were welcoming and very efficient. Good choice on the menu but not too much to choose some. Food was great with two exceptions, the chunky chips my husband ordered to accompany his steak were soggy and the champagne sauce on my halibut was far too salty. Fortunately there was not enough of it to spoil the whole meal. Overall though, a lovely evening

Very enjoyable evening. Food was good. Staff very attentive. Atmosphere was good but I’m sure with support from locals that will only get better.

Food was very nice, service excellent we went for an early dinner so it wasn’t busy but I would definitely go back - I think due to the prices it would be on special occasions but worth the money - just not somewhere we would go on a weekly/monthly basis

Service was slow. Took quite some time between starters and mains. Mains food portions weren’t huge although starters were a good size. Cocktails were very good. Needs some tweaking but still a new restaurant so hopefully it gets there.

good food good service, good music nice place to go
