Our award-winning country pub with 10 rooms is in the picturesque village of Rickling Green, Essex. Found between the market towns of Bishops Stortford and Saffron Walden, and just a 10-15 minute drive from Stansted Airport, so close enough for a quick get-away but far enough away to just hear the birds, not the planes! Some might say, we’re perfectly located for business and leisure stays alike.

We proudly serve seasonal menus, crafted by our talented Head Chef and Owner, Harry Kodagoda, featuring local ingredients, real ales, and a brilliant little wine list. We invite you to enjoy breakfast, lunch, or dinner with us every day, and we’re delighted to have been awarded 1 AA Rosette for culinary excellence. You can book your table with us here.

In the summer months, you can dine al fresco overlooking the picturesque cricket green or settle inside our stylish, traditional restaurant. We welcome families, children of all ages, and even those with muddy paws! Our pub is also available for private functions, including wedding receptions, wakes, and parties. Want to host a special occasion here? Get in touch and our team will be in touch to make your special day more than just a day to remember.
