Perfect local. Staff are super friendly, and service is always 10/10. Loving all the changes that have been done to make the pub feel more welcoming. Such a good atmosphere anytime I go! :)

Glad to see Jan is making progress with our local spoons he makes the time to speak to people and makes every effort to ensure you have a good pint and meal and enjoy your visit at the Temeraire. Things have deffinately improved under his leadership. I would like to see a few stronger darker ales and perhaps less golden ales, but thats purely personal.

Very nice Wetherspoons. A generous amount of on street parking close by, great menu, and everything you'd expect. A fairly relaxed-feeling atmosphere on my visit too.

We ordered breakfast It was nearly cold when we started to eat it The mushroom was cold No one came and asked if everything was OK with the food Usually someone asks in other weatherspoons we have been to When the plates were collected they still did not ask if the breakfast was OK Was visiting the town, thought we would have breakfast but would not return again

July 2024, Saturday 2pm visit, a first to tick it off, as that's what I do. The first Wetherspoons ive come across, and sadly not the last, where forming one orderly queue to the bar is considered normal. Not impressed. The pub was not too busy, so I Sat down, and ordered my fish & chip deal via the app. This arrived, with the drink only 45 minutes later. Food was very much OK, but the staff seemed indiffent, unapologetic and just coping I guess. I can only put this low rating visit down to staff issues and/or poor management. That's the way sometimes. 👍🤔

Went here for breakfast after hearing good things about it. Unfortunately the food was ok, but really nothing to shout about. Food was just about warm, bacon on the pancakes was small portioned and quite fatty. We won't be going here again for food because if the breakfast is not really good, the main menu may well be the same.

Absolutely our go to pub in Saffron Walden. Include a large drink in the meal. Good service children friendly as well. If can include football would be amazing!

Food will be sent back multiple times for various reasons, this is after waiting an hour for nachos. The staff are cocky. And the coleslaw will be warmer than your chips... The first time around. 3 stars for atmosphere because of the people I was with. Get your cheap beers but whatever you do, don't order food. I put Naan are the recommended food as its the closest to none.

Comfortable, prices increased tremendously still worth a visit.warm in winter,cool in summer. Sometimes hard to get served at counter but they try hard, management problem .best beer prices ever. Coffee all sorts 1.50p with free refills.sad at weekends no staff to clear the tables.we and others turned away by our own judgement again low staff/managers issue.

The Temeraire looks gorgeous inside, the artwork displayed is great and the information on the places and characters is very interesting and certainly worth a read. There is unfortunately a down side… and that is the food. The food came out lovely and hot, but also with several things missing from the orders. My black pudding was fried so much that it was hard and tasted of just oil it was cooked in, not pleasant. But the beer selection was nice and got to try ones that I haven’t had before. Always an added bonus. 😂

Had lunch here with a few girlfriends. The food was quite nice, but the desserts were very small! Plenty of outside seating as well as inside. The ladies toilets were not the cleanest and didn't smell particularly nice. For a Weatherspoons it wasn't too bad, I've been in worse!
