The Layer Fox - Colchester

We dropped in for lunch without a reservation and were seated immediately. The food was excellent, and we will definitely be coming back again.

We absolutely adore having our weekly drinks and weekend meals at this lovely restaurant. The staff is friendly, the food is fantastic, and the added bonus of seeing dogs everywhere just adds to the charm. We truly love this place.

This restaurant is a cozy and inviting pub with charming old oak beams. The food and service were excellent, making for a very enjoyable evening.

Visited recently on a recommendation, specifically for a Sunday lunch. We were not disappointed. Service was warm and very friendly. The wait to take orders, serve food and drink was minimal. The Sunday lunch was wonderful. My wife had beef and I chose the pork we added a side of cauliflower cheese. Every element of the meal was cooked perfectly. Roasties tasted like they had been cooked in beef dripping, crispy and fluffy inside. Vegetables cooked to perfection and the cauliflower cheese so creamy. The gravy clearly made from the juices in the roasting tin. My wife’s guidelines for a perfect Sunday lunch are if the food is a good as mine (I am a retired Maitre Chef de Cuisine) it definitely was. We will be back this is our ‘new’ favourite place for Sunday lunch.

Popped by for lunch and was served a very tasty burger with a lovely fresh side salad. If you're feeling peckish, I would definitely recommend stopping by here.
