One of Loughton's late night spots, it's open from Thursday to Sunday and attracts a glamorous Essex crowd.

Great for a family meal or a get together with friends. Traditional Indian curries and sides, all for a reasonable price.

This is by far my favourite restaurant in Loughton! Their Mediterranean and Greek food is delicious and it has such a great atmosphere too. It's the perfect place for a get-together or celebration.

It may be part of a chain of restaurants, but they definitely don't compromise on quality. The pizzas are really tasty and even the salads are too!

This has to be the prettiest pub in Essex! It's in a lovely quiet spot near Epping Forest and the large garden is fantastic in the summer.

The staff and teachers are amazing, the place is buzzing with the sound of music.

I love this pub because of it's hilltop position. The views towards London are beautiful and Epping Forest is just round the corner. It has a cosy, traditional atmosphere and it's dog friendly too!

Traditional food and a cosy atmosphere, this family-run pub is in a fantastic position on the edge of Epping Forest.

Great Middle Eastern-style food, stunning venue and a fantastic atmosphere. Will certainly be going back! You can spend your whole evening here, as there's a cocktail bar with live music for pre or post-dinner drinks.
