The Axe and Compasses in Uttlesford

We visited you a week ago and left a review here, and heard yesterday about the dreadful fire. Our best wishes to you all. I hope you can rebuild if that is what you want. Kindest regards. Keith and Jane

Lovely pub in a lovely village. Friendly welcome, super food with some great Greek dishes. Highly recommended.

Lovely building and should be perfect stop on a Sunday walk. But sadly under ridiculously unfriendly pretentious management. Best avoided - especially if you are a walker, cyclist, dog owner or in damp or dirty footwear!

This was my first visit to the Axe and Compasses and will definitely be recommending this beautiful pub to everyone. The food was amazing. Honestly the best meal I have had in a very long time.The staff were lovely and friendly and the pub itself was amazing.Will definitely be returning.

Nice little village pub not far from Stansted. The village around it is really pretty and photogenic! The food was great - a bit more upmarket than standard pub food, I had trout with brown butter and capers which was delicious!

A rare find these days, a proper decent pub and restaurant. Great food, impeccable service and lovely atmosphere. Will definitely be back.

Great spot for a drink or dinner, been there a few times and always enjoyed the friendly service provided for all staff. Food is always good and fabulous atmosphere that gives you perfection for a nice and delicious meal with your friends. Highly recommended.

Polite attentive staff, excellent meal with the BEST CHIPS i have ever eaten. Small menu so each dish properly prepared with the best local ingredients. Prices going up everywhere but this was excellent value for money. Tip optional, not forced on you! - given freely!

Nice pub nestled away in a very pretty location. Ample parking or park for free at the front. Friendly staff and good food. Good portions but don't expect it to be too cheap £16.99 for a burger and chips but very nice quality.

Excellent meal with friendly service. Unexpected and unusual to find Greek food in a very old traditional country pub in a pretty Essex village. We all loved the dessert trolley and will return again soon
