“Smashing place friendly staff, very pleasant place to be. Ideal location if you want to go for a walk and then get a decent cuppa and a snack before you head for home. Public toilets nearby.”

“Lovely atmosphere from the moment we walked in. Food was delicious and the wait time was very reasonable we didnt even feel like we were waiting. We were served by some really lovely ladies who made us feel very comfortable. There was a live singer while we were there which was exciting. Everything on the menu is halal and they were happy to serve me a mocktail version of any of the drinks on the menu!”

“Unbelievable food! Proper home cooked meal for good value 100% will be back for some winter grub. Good choice of drinks, wine glasses aren’t the best if you’re a wine glass snob like me but other than that can’t complain at all. Really nice pub we will be back. Staff are really friendly but had to ask twice for the bill and still ended up paying at the bar. Only negative to say.”

“Best pub in Loughton. It does great beer, including ales and bitter, and it's not expensive. The location is great next to the forest. Good pub garden. Overall a little classier than most places in the local area.”

“A really nice cosy pub with 2 bars, plenty of outside seating. Efficient, friendly staff. Plenty of parking at front n rear where pots of beautful plants lined the area. Doesnt do food but good place to meet, talk n drink. Will definitely return”

“Google promoted me to review this hobby craft. It's closing down and seems most of stuff has gone. Still a few items for sale between 30 to 70 percents for a few grabbers. Not much else to say!”

“Thai restaurant in the Epping forest with outdoor and indoor seating and lots of parking. With wide range of options in the menu and the taste is really good and authentic. Service was friendly and fast. This is a definitely must try Thai place with family.”

“I stopped by Molens Brasserie in Loughton for lunch recently, and it was a fantastic experience. Located on the High Road, this charming spot has been a local favorite since 1985, and it’s clear why. The vibe is warm, inviting, and effortlessly stylish, blending cozy and upscale perfectly – great for a relaxed midday meal. The menu is packed with options, from hearty sandwiches to fresh salads and comforting classics. I went for the Chicken Escalope sandwich, and it was on point – tender, perfectly cooked chicken in a soft granary roll with crisp lettuce, cucumber, and a zesty lemon mayo that made every bite pop. My buddy chose the lasagna, served piping hot with golden fries and a fresh side salad – classic comfort food done right. Every dish felt thoughtfully prepared, with generous portions and bold flavors. The staff were a real highlight – super friendly, attentive, and full of warmth. Joseph, in particular, stood out, greeting us with a genuine smile and keeping everything running smoothly, even as the place hummed with lunchtime diners. Our drinks arrived quickly, perfectly complementing the meal, and the service was flawless throughout. Molens Brasserie is an awesome spot for lunch, whether you’re dining solo, with friends, or with family. The quality, atmosphere, and stellar team make it a standout in Loughton.”

“Came to the owl yesterday, 5 adults, 2 kids, 1 dog, such a beautiful pub, excellent food and drinks and lovely service too, the staff were so friendly towards the kids, even helping them to get the free dog treats from the bar!! We Will definitely be coming back in the new year, really lovely family pub, great atmosphere.”

“Saturday afternoon pub lunch in the sun with the kids. 2 adult meals and 2 kids meals came to about £40 without drinks, which I felt was really reasonable. I had the tandoori chicken skewers and it was absolutely delicious. Came with fries, hot sauce, tatziki, grains and salad. Couldn't fault it. My partner had the sea bass which she loved and was a nice healthier option too. Also tried the chocolate brownie which was to die for.”

“Went for Sunday lunch. They didn't do food but gave great advice to local places that do. Sat in the spacious garden and enjoyed a lovely cold beer in the sun. Friendly staff and customers.”

“Really nice pizza, and the pork ribs as a starter were decent size, really tasty as well. Lovely and friendly staff. Can't fault it to be honest.”

“Lovely lunch, had a delicious burger and spoke to a new worker called Imogen, she was very energetic and kind! Will definitely be coming back.”

“Itziar was extremely helpful. A real pleasure to deal with. She let me know about the app and potential rewards so saved me a few quid too. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend her or pizza express on loughton. The food was ace.”

“Had a wonderful evening in the standard beautifully decorated, Basia and staff looked after us amazingly! Christmas vibes all round.”

“Just wandered in after a lovely big walk in Epping forest with a good old friend, and I have to say, what a fantastic weatherspoons! Ordered a small freshly battered cod and chips with mushy peas and a leffe blonde to wash it down (lunchtime deals of course! £6.99?! Can’t say fairer than that!) Can confidently say it was the best weatherspoons food I’ve ever had, fish was perfectly cooked, fantastically crispy batter whilst maintaining a juicy succulent cod piece in the middle, and might I say generous portions for a small plate! Perfectly poured crisp pint to top it all off, what more could you ask for? The last post? It’s my FIRST choice in Loughton let me tell you that much :)”

“My daughters 4th birthday was hosted here today! Amazing place and thank you for helping me make my daughters 4th birthday memorable x”
