"Having visited nearby Hedingham Castle we were looking for somewhere to have lunch and luckily stumbled upon The Old Moot House. What a lovely venue. It was light and airy and we loved sitting in there on a sunny February day. We both ordered the prawn, smoked salmon and avocado salad which was just prefect with fresh, good quality ingredients. It had a lovely dressing on it too. The avocado was in perfect condition and very tasty not always easy to find. The service was friendly and helpful. The people at the table next to us were celebrating a wedding so we felt a little under dressed but could understand why they had chosen The Old Moot House restaurant for their special meal."

Recently enjoyed an evening meal with a friend at the lovely Moothouse. The interior is contemporary but retains it's old charm. The waiter was friendly and we were not rushed. We had two courses which were delicious and beautifully presented and the wine was good. We will definitely recommend to friends and look forward to returning soon.

We dined at the restaurant about 3 years ago whilst holidaying in the area. We visited again last night had an excellent meal, starters, mains 2 lovely puddings. We can see that the chef the owners have put the menu together using in season produce. The time between courses was not rushed, we were told to take our time. The staff member was friendly chatty. We will visit again. View menu

Stopped here around lunch time Easter Saturday, after a long walk in the surrounding countryside. Only had tea and cake, but when I say 'only ' I have to say that the Victoria Sponge was just gorgeous. Lovely and light, the jam was great (I suspect home made) and the cream filling just yummy. It was gone so quickly, I think I inhaled it rather than ate it. My mother would not be proud.

Sarah and her staff are so accommodating and friendly, we were given the menus and were spoilt for choice. I had the scampi and chips which was delicious triple fried chips and a generous helping of scampi, the food was cooked to perfection. There was a good choice of sweets and as I was quite full I decided on the ice cream, honeycomb ! Lovely, a generous cup of coffee completed my meal. A very pleasant and delicious meal and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this restaurant.

"We recently moved into the area and have slowly started to visit local eateries and pubs, The Tripadvisor reviews for The White Lion made it sound lovely. Oh, how first impressions can be wrong! Firstly the site says the pub is in Castle Headingham, it’s not! It’s in Sible Headingham. Very frustrating when you have walked and it takes you completely in the opposite direction! How has the owner not noticed the site is wrong? So back to the visit. We walked in the front door to be told “oh good you’re here, the chef wants to close the kitchen as he needs to clean down to do the burgers for the football” there was no offer of a menu, starters etc, just beef or turkey, oh and chefs “special” cauliflower cheese. All of this in the first 30 seconds of walking through the door! We both ordered the beef, this was a disgrace to the culinary profession. The vegetables looked grey, like they had been cooked for ever and maybe even microwaved, the roast potatoes I’m sure were mass produced Aunt Bessie efforts as they were all uniformly shaped and sized, the Yorkshire Puds were definitely frozen ones. The cauliflower cheese (the chef makes the sauce himself you know! was flavourless and covered in cheap mild cheese that tasted of nothing. The worst part of the meal was the beef, it was wafer thin, commercially produced, grissle, I would not be surprised if it was reheated Tesco sandwich beef out of a packet. All this for £15 a head!!!!! Whoever cooked that meal should be ashamed of themselves and should not have the privilege to be called a chef if that’s all they can produce out of a professional commercial kitchen. We will definitely not be visiting again!"
