A group of 15 walkers went to the Axe Compasses for a mid-week lunch. Everybody enjoyed their lunch and the cozy wood burner, which made for a rewarding finish to our walk. The interior of the pub is rustic and charming, the service was excellent, and I heard several positive comments about the quality of the food and the choice of beers. The two-course lunchtime menu is very reasonably priced. In addition, most dishes on the a la carte menu include the choice of a smaller portion. The pub is tucked away in the historic heart of the lovely village of Braughing, opposite the Church Green, yet close to the A10 and the A120.
We went there for lunch and ordered paninis which came either with chips or salad. In my opinion it doesn't cost much to put a bit of salad on a plate so should have been served with both. In other local pubs I have been to you would normally get chips and salad and maybe coleslaw with your sandwich or panini . At £8 each for cheese and tomato panini I definitely think it should have come chips and salad. The chips were quite hard, just about edible and as we were starving we did eat most of them but they were all undercooked. Shame as I have had lunch there before a while ago but it was nice.
We had a meal as a family earlier this month and it was extremely disappointing. The service was very, very slow. The food was mediocre and in my opinion overpriced. We paid £8 for cheesecake and it was the smallest slice of cheesecake I have ever seen! Absolute rip-off in terms of value. I’m guessing the vegetables were intended to be al dente, but there is a difference between al dente and raw! All in all I would not go back as the food is too overpriced for what is offered and the service is too slow. The menu is also very limited. Disappointing I’m afraid.
My 93 yr old disabled father had just come out of hospital and we were hoping to find a nice place for lunch so we came off the main road and came across the Axe and Compass. They couldn’t have been more helpful and patient in accommodating us, enabling my father to easily gain access when walking with crutches and assisting wherever they could. The meal was delicious and the service we received was top class. Although the axe and compass is quite a distance from where we live we do intend to try to go there again. Reserva una mesa ahora
Absolutely stunning country pub, very welcoming and accommodating. Staff very professional and friendly. Varied food menu. They were busy on arrival with food orders but took our order and advised it would be started in 15 minutes, which it was and served very much quicker than expected. Piping hot absolutely delicious, I cannot fault it. Will definitely eat there again. 10/10
Friday lunch with some friends lovely setting, friendly barmaid, pleasant decor but oh dear ... food was dire. £18 for a 'grass fed ' 8 oz rib eye steak. 'Steel wool fed ' might have been a better description. It was so tough we really struggled to cut through the meat. Fries were ok but veg cooked to death. Might just have a pint and bag of crisps next time.
