A traditional restaurant complete with low ceilings, beams, real fires and a cosy bar still frequented by the locals, it’s the pride of place pizza oven that makes Caesar @ Dolphin stand out from many village inns. That and the seasonal menu of big-flavoured dishes underpinned by strong technical skill
We've been serving the people of Braintree and beyond since 2015 and in that time have humbly become ‘one of Essex’s best restaurants.’ We have received recognition from the AA, having been awarded an AA Rosette for ‘culinary excellence’ for five consecutive years, and then in 2023 we received our second rosette, putting the restaurant amongst the top 10 restaurants in Essex. Our food is of course one of our main focuses, but we don’t just stop there. Attentive, relaxed and friendly service is as important as the food and our objective is to make your visit an enjoyably memorable one. Our exceptional wine supplier, Peter Watts Wines (based up the road in Coggeshall) allows us to offer you delicious wines of an exceptional quality. Then add some cocktails, jazz, personality, creativity, a few hidden quirks and we like to think this all culminates to create a truly wonderful experience. Life is about memories; we want to be part of your best ones.
Le Bouchon Brasserie and Hotel est un monument classé de grade II de style géorgien vieux de 300 ans, entièrement rénové afin de lui rendre sa gloire passée. La période de rénovation a permis d'allier certaines des caractéristiques d'antan de l'édifice à des meubles et à un décor de style classique qui complètent le style original de la maison. Le Bouchon Brasserie propose un mélange de cuisines française et britannique servies dans un cadre relaxant et intime. Dégustez un repas du menu à la carte ou choisissez dans la grande sélection de formules disponibles à différents moments au cours de la semaine. À côté du Bouchon, vous pourrez admirer le superbe canal de navigation Chelmer and Blackwater ouvert en 1797, qui s'étend sur 22 km depuis le bassin de Springfield de Chelmsford à l'écluse du bassin d'Heybridge, à proximité de Maldon. Profitez d'une croisière fluviale relaxante après le dîner ou avant le souper en été.
