  “Decent for a chain pub. Disappointed they participated in the pretence that the government is doing anything meaningful for hospitality, though. Presumably they feel a chain business will benefit when the current government’s policies drives out every individually-owned pub.”

  “We booked the Snug bar at the Hare for the wake of our Mum following her funeral. It was an ideal, cozy setting for our relatively small group of mourners. Thank you so much to Jason and his team, not only on the day, but for the help in selecting the buffet options etc. When we arrived, the buffet table was aplenty and beautifully laid out. The choice was great and tasty. The room had been ideally arranged. There were teas and coffees waiting for those who did not want an alcoholic beverage. The service we received on the day was speedy and all the staff were very attentive and amazing. We chose this venue as we often frequented it with our Mum, so we had fond memories as she always enjoyed the food, drinks and setting there. Great food and beer always, plus their Sunday roasts are generous and gorgeous! Would thoroughly recommend not only for an event such as ours, but for a visit in general. We will visiting again soon. Thank you Jason and your team for making such a sad day a fitting and wonderful send off for our Mum.”

  “Really nice pub, very friendly staff and the food is genuinely very good and reasonable prices too. I like their steak and ale pie. One of the best pubs in Harlow. Nice outside seating too for the summer.”

  “Overall, great pub. The team where friendly and the food prices are really good especially for what you get on the plate. The food was nice enough and I enjoyed what I had but it wasnt a wow factor. Still plesent. I would definatly say that if your going for the roast, upgrade to the large as seen in the photos Ioved the atmosphere, the decor especially the doors at first I thought we had the wrong place due to the location was was wonderfully surprised.”

  “Our first visit for Sunday lunch. Who knew that such a beautiful old pub could be found in the middle of a housing estate. I couldn't help noticing that it was a little dark in some areas, but then it is a quaint old traditional pub.”

  “⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ | The Hare, Harlow: Great Food, Lovely Atmosphere… But Let’s Talk About That Bathroom The Hare - a charming old pub just outside Harlow’s centre, where history meets hearty food (and where the bathrooms just about meet expectations). Came here for dinner, and let’s start with the star of the show, the jacket potato. This was exactly how a jacket potato should be: thick, well-baked, crispy skin, and topped with a generous portion of tuna mayo (because nobody wants to go digging for the filling). The salad dressing? Let’s just say it won’t be winning any awards, but the food overall was spot on. I also enjoyed a peppermint tea (in a BIG mug, thankfully) and a black coffee, both of which hit the spot. The restaurant area itself is beautifully decorated, with olde-world charm and lovely historic photos of Harlow’s past - a really thoughtful touch that gives it a warm, nostalgic feel. Now, about the bathroom, functional, but definitely in need of a little TLC. Nothing disastrous, but let’s just say the pub’s historic charm shouldn’t extend to the facilities. Would I come back? Absolutely, for the food, the atmosphere, and the crispy jacket potatoes done right. Just maybe with slightly lowered bathroom expectations.”

  “We had steak and burgers and the stack burger was amazing. The steaks were cooked exactly as we asked for and the pepper sauce was very good. I particularly liked the onion basket. I went for the steak with scampi as a plus. A really great place that was busy with the locals.”
