About this restaurant

Good for special occasions
Romantic
Good for groups

Dax and the foodie team have taken the already well-regarded food served at Crofters to a superior level. Building on this success they decided to take the venue back to it’s wine bar roots, with a revised menu, even more variety drink-wise and a look that is relaxing as it is well considered. The team are huge fans of the old English wine bar concept and as such have employed good old-fashioned values of great quality food and excellent service.

A really enjoyable meal. Properly could do with an extra vegetarian Sunday roast but good all round.

As ever Crofters delivered. Service was very good and the food also excellent. A good vibe the night we went also added to the experience. If you want excellent brasserie food in Witham it's the place to go.

Although pre-booking in advance we were shocked to discover that majority of the food in the restaurant was unavailable. When we did receive our food we were provided with no cutlery, condiments or napkins. We were halfway through eating until we were able to ask a waitress who was serving another table. The drinks were overpriced and flat and the food was average at best.

We visited after being recommended from a friend. Unfortunately the food did not measure to expectations. Starters were lovely but our roast had broccoli which we could not cut with a knife and was rubbery. The roast potatoes were a little too well done. And the one carrot was not hot. Had rave reviews from friends and one visited on Saturday and he was also disappointed.

We visited Friday 10th November as you had singer Nola Jane singing we had never been before. We had food beforehand and can honestly say it’s the best meal we had had in a very long time everything was spot on hats off to that chef ! Great staff and servers also very friendly and nothing was too much trouble. Thank you will be coming back.

First time here. Food absolutely smashing (veggie gyoza to start then duck confit on a balsamic salad). Very nice serving staff. Couple of mix ups but everything turned out fine. Very pleasant evening and I would visit again to try the rest of the menu based on how good my food was. No complaints from my guest either (tempura prawns then fish and chips). Worth a visit, recommended.

Food was spectacular! It was a shame the restaurant wasn't busier on a Thursday evening (we were the only people there for our first two courses) however that didnt effect our experience. We loved it so much we have booked to return next week. A fabulous find!
