The Woodbine - Waltham Abbey

Absolutely delicious food and a great selection of beer. The fish and chips was delightful and the chips were nicely fried. The homemade ice cream was one of the best ice creams I’ve had as well.
The outer garden space was lovely and away from the main road. The staff was friendly as well. I’ve thoroughly enjoyed my visit here.

The owner was very friendly and accommodating as we didn’t book a table but he managed to find one for us. (Note: it was extremely busy on Sunday around 1 pm. Reservation is recommended.)

He made sure the table was clean and told us a bit about the locally sourced ingredients and their home made ice cream.

I had chicken Sunday roast (£17) which was nice. I give it 4/5 for flavours. Portion for fish n chips was large (£16).

A nice find.

Wonderful little pub with absolutely fantastic food. I highly recommend the bar dogs, so good I could have one every day.
All the food is great hand made pizzas to succulent burgers and so much more.
Staff are very friendly and have a no nonsense approach.
Oh and regular live music nights, it gets busy during these but well worth it as the vibe is electric.

Basically whatever you want from a quick pint to a full blown slap up meal you cannot go wrong.

So quirky and the food is just delish. All homemade and you can really tell. The staff can’t do enough for you. Really is service with a smile. Had a Sunday roast, date and walnut cake with ice cream (homemade) for dessert. Would highly recommended, especially over a chain, the Woodbine Inn had really charm 🥰

You won’t find a better hotdog.
What a brilliant place food is superb and the people who run it are so friendly as is the big black dog who is gorgeous.
Visited a few times now and had a selection of their menu. Can’t fault anything. They also have regular specials on a board oh the ice cream is to die for too.

Go there have fun and feel great.

Got the Groupon deal three-course meal for £28 for two. The food was lovely, decent portions and the lady that served us greeted us with a big smile and was happy, friendly and helpful. With the deal we had there was a £7 surcharge for the steak and £3 for a Stilton or peppercorn sauce. My partner had the steak which he couldn't stop raving about for days afterwards and he would quite happily pay £40plus for a steak of that quality. He was a very Happy customer. I had the chicken katsu and rice which they very kindly changed from chicken to quorn for me, it was delicious. Our starters and deserts were equally delicious 😋 We sat in the conservatory section of the pub, I thought it was going to be cold in there but it wasn't it was nice and cosy. We will definitely visit again as we have read so many good things about the roast dinners here, can't wait to try it!

Found the pub by accident and it was a great mistake! 🤣

Friendly staff and welcoming atmosphere. A good selection of food and drinks including vegetarian food! I had a Guinness and the Mushroom burger with chips. The burger was fully loaded with cheese and sweet peppers 🫑 😋.

There is lots of car parking space at the front of the road, but be careful pulling out as there are fast cars going either direction.

The best part was I was supporting a small business 🥳

Attended here as part of a group on deal and what an experience, when we first attended from the outside didn't think it was going to be that great, the pub was on the high road which didn't really give it the best look, but was i wrong, as soon as we got in we was greeted with a smile and the service was amazing throughout, the inside was very cosy, now lest talk about the food, as a starter i got whitebait which was so nice my partner got the stuffed mushroom which was equally lovely, as a meal i went for the steak which had a £7 surcharge, what an amazing steak it was, so tender and delicious, it was cooked exactly as i asked, the mushrooms, the chips and tomatoes was amazing, as a desert went for a brownie and home made ice cream which was soo soo nice, as a whole, the meal was a 10 out of 10 and i would have gladly paid double what i paid for that meal, so anyone thinking about going please dont think and do it, you wont be disappointed, I've reviewed a lot of places around the world and this place is in my top 10 easily.
