Last weekend my wife’s family held a gathering of sorts at the Mulberry Tree in Braintree. The food was possibly the worst I’ve eaten and was as far from being reasonably priced as it could be. All the little locals are now owned by chains and we pay our hard earned for frozen nuggets and chips sat with groupon vouchered benefit family’s glued to their phones whilst their half bred kids run riot and then there’s the staff of whom we are an inconvenience to. So when my sister in law and her boyfriend of whose family supply most of the genuine restaurants in the Essex and Suffolk areas with their meat instead of brake bros, they happened to mention the Vine in Great Bardfield. With my 10 year...
I’ve been to this pub a few times although sadly haven’t been for a couple of months. My husband and I went today to try the Sunday roast in a Yorkshire pudding wrap and we weren’t disappointed. Lovely beef brisket, perfectly cooked veg, a bowl of cauliflower cheese and dipping bowls of horse radish and gravy. My only criticism would be the gravy could be thicker but I realise gravy is subjective! I love the rock vibe here from the decor to the music (tame impala, the cure, panic at the disco), it’s lovely and cosy with an open fire and the clientele seem friendly and a good mix of locals and people who have come for the food. The imaginative burgers here are amazing too and they cater well...
Had lunch with my wife and dog Alfie. The pub is welcoming and the staff are very efficient. I had a burger, my wife the chicken wings and we shared a portion of hand cut fries. All cooked very well and tasty. There’s a range of draught beers on offer and the local IPA I had was very good. Very good decor with contemporary artwork to my taste.
Lovely Pub/Restaurant!! We all had different burgers and Wings and they were all 10/10. We also had the Rosemary Fries and Mac and Cheese Crockets again these were delicious. Would definitely recommend this place whether it’s with your family/friends or date night!! Thank you for such lovely experience. Will be returning!!

Lovely pub. Decor good. Open fire. Service excellent. Food superb. I’m very critical as we don’t eat out a lot. If the service, decor and food aren’t good I won’t go back. I’m definitely going back. Good honest pub food at its best.
Had the most amazing burger at this lovely country pub. Reopened with a new team a year or so ago, this place has great new decor, a covered conservatory area and a great vibe. Most importantly the burgers are out of this world!
Ŵe ate and drank here as a mixed generational group but were frankly disappointed, which was a bit of a surprise! Nonetheless this is a lovely, and friendly village.... and an alternative is not so far away.
One of my favorite spots near the park. It was busy, but there is plenty of out door seating. Plenty of food options, healthy and not. Staff was really nice.
