The service and decor was excellent. However the ribeye was over seasoned and the duck was tough. The dessert specifically the sticky toffee was very sodgy.

We had a fantastic meal, what brilliant value for £19.95 a head! We received a warm welcome, had good advice about our wine choice and thoroughly enjoyed the whole meal. Lovely ambience in the restaurant.

Myself and a few friends recently visited The Chophouse for Sunday lunch. We had the most amazing and scrumptious Sunday lunch we've had in years. All washed down by a fine Malbec - at just the right temperature. The service was fantastic too; not rushed and very well looked after. A lovely afternoon was had by all. Thank you to Rob and his team. We can't wait to go back for more culinary delights.

My Sunday starter of mussels were cooked perfectly. Veg really good, although I found having all three meats beef, chicken & pork together a bit strange. Will come back and try mid week menu.

The meal was very good, the food was lovely. But unfortunately, my meal was dropped on the floor as it was being brought to our table. My table had been served theirs already, so it meant that I was awaiting my food whilst they were waiting to eat theirs. (Very polite) there was a delay before we were told and I just feel they could have told us immediately to save any food going cold and they could have offered some kind of gift be this a free drink or some small gesture.

We had the chicken pie, pastry was dreadful, even after complaining my sister wasn't offered an alternative neither was it taken off the bill despite it being obvious that she couldn't eat it. Wasn't impressed with lunchtime menu very disappointed! Also had to ask where our mains were and they weren't busy! Shame as we had a great Sunday lunch in the summer

Good service, limited menu choices which wasn't great when they had run out of starters and puddings, making the menu even smaller. Staff having smoking breaks then serving us wasn't great either.

Fantastic food, great service and lovely cosy but spacious atmosphere and setting. Staff very friendly and efficient, manager took good care of us. Particularly recommend their mid-week set menu, which is fantastic value for money, and had delicious starter, mains and deserts choices on it. No criticisms to offer at all! We'll be back!

Amazing food. Nice décor, modern and quirky Service was patchy, hard to get someone's attention which in a small restaurant feels poor. Awful table, popped under the stairs, not really enough room for it there. I felt in the way the whole evening. I would go back again because the food was so good, will be making sure we are seated somewhere else.

Was ok, very small table food was nice enough but very over priced. If anyone had been to smiths in ongar this is a much nicer restaurant for the same money. I doubt we would go back again. Nice to see places like this trying in Braintree.

The service was excellent and the waitress was very attentive and helpful. It was early and we were the only ones in there at the time. Good food and didn't have to wait too long. The place soon filled up and seemed to be very popular. Seemed very busy for a Wednesday evening in Braintree.
