Welcome to the Star Inn.
Sometimes there is nothing better than popping to the village pub to relax, unwind and be yourself, which is exactly what you can do here. We are located in the pretty village of Ingatestone in the High Street next to the church and opposite Pellinis Boutique.
This lovely pub has oodles of history and some say its even haunted (although we personally have no evidence of that!!). You will find a welcoming atmosphere with a roaring log fire on chilly days, candle lit tables in the evenings which is complimented by contemporary service. The food is amazing with some reworked English classics with creative and tasty touches.

Food was good but dining experience was let down by the service on our table which is a shame as we were looking forward to dining here having had a previously good experience. The waiter seemed disinclined to take half our tables drink order, the specials were rambled off without a pause / clarity, our food orders were not noted down which resulted in one coming back incorrect to which the waiter tried to argue the mixup being our fault (requesting chips rather than mash is fairly clear) and to top it off the toffee pudding dessert was found to have a date stone hidden inside which nearly cracked a tooth…on highlighting this to the waiter we received no further communication on the matter and a bill for the full amount. Service could have been a lot better.
Wow, this place packs a punch! Service presentation of food but most importantly flavoursome ! Hubs and I went for a lunch date and both sat smiling, we enjoyed every single course and every bite. Usually we’d prefer the starter or main but it was honestly all equally awesome! We’ve already planned to revisit with the rest of the family for our daughter’s birthday. Thank you Djamel for looking after us today :-)
Walking into The Star Inn, you feel right at home. The place has a cozy British vibe, complete with a wooden fire, making you feel welcomed right away. It’s a comfy spot for any group, big or small. They’re great with kids too, offering a flexible menu and making sure everyone’s comfy. The staff are friendly and know their stuff, adding to the relaxed atmosphere. The food is the highlight – always good, which is impressive considering how often we’ve eaten here. It’s the kind of place you can bring friends and know they’ll leave happy. The Star Inn is our go-to in the village, perfect for a laid-back dinner or catching up with friends.
Amazing Sunday roast! Appetiser, mains and puddings were gorgeous. Staff were friendly and very welcoming, although a bit stretched. Interior design was beautiful. Overall a lovely Sunday dinner.
Great place to eat in a pretty Essex village, decor, atmosphere and food was amazing although the service was a little slow, hence 4*
