    It is the best place i have ever been to for food the service is amazing as i went on my birthday they sang happy birthday, the perople in the resturant are very friendly can always help you if you aheva problem with the food. There id no bad points about the food its very tasty and is also very filling.
    They could have a bit more of a choice of food.
    The prices are a bit over pricesd but that still hasnt stop me from going there i would recommend that you go there and try it for yourself ...

    The Ancora is a dated, wanaby classy restaurant with food to match. Staff friendly but food overpriced and overated. If you've dined at a classy restaurant - the differences are obvious. Won't be paying a second visit.

    Ancora Restaurant, Hadleigh, has superb food, warm welcome, nothing too much trouble, Consistency. Great Value. We eat out regularly, both on our own and often with a group of friends, so dine in lots of various restaurants across Essex. The Ancora is "our favourite". Always guaranteed a great dining experience. Nothing is too much trouble for any of the staff, who welcome you as if you were their most treasured customer. It is like home from home. Great home cooked food at very affordable p ...

    Would recommend Ancora Restaurant, Hadleigh to anyone. There is a very good choice , particularly if you are veggie. The food is fresh and hot and the service is excellent. Excellent Food, huge choice, Good portion sizes and value for money. Service is excellent. Decor slightly tired but , the food more than makes up for this.

    Had a warm welcome at Ancora, Hadleigh, good food and not rushed. But I thought it was a bit dated and worn in the back room especially. Needs some redecoration and softer lighting. Good points were quality and portions. Good value too.

    Like some other comments made, the Ancora in Hadleighit is a good family restaurant, where the staff appear genuinely to care for their customers. I for instance requested to purchase one of their pint glasses, and asked for it to be added to the bill, but they supplied it free, and when the glass got broken, they supplied another free as well. Great sense of humour all round.

    A great restaurant with excellent menu and trained staff. Everything fresh - no pre packaged food here. Sunday lunch is under 17 pound for three courses and coffee!! Better value than all the local pubs. Well worth a visit if you appreciate good food properly served.

    Ancora is my favourite restaurant where I go with friends, family and work colleagues. Good food is guaranteed as are friendly welcoming staff. Its a pleasure to be treated properly, have linen tablecloths and fresh food that is silver served to you at the table (none of that mass produced rubbish that so many other restaurants palm you off with). A real treat of a restaurant. Nothing is too much trouble, one of my friends is coeliac and another is a veggie and they have been accommodated w ...

    We read all the glowing reviews and booked 2 weeks ago as we understood tables are difficult to book. Firsly we were shocked at how old the decor is. It was like an old persons living room. Even the toilet had a drip rug! Euwww!. The menu was varied and well written, maybe a bit flowered up? The food itself was nothing special. I wouldn't say it was bad but i have had better and paid much less for it. 2 starters, 2 bottles of house wine, 2 main courses + 1 portion of cheese board (a very small s ...

    Ancora is a lovely restaurant, good atmosphere at the weekend when a guitarist plays in the restaurant. The music is just in the background though, it does not stop you talking to each other. The staff are very attentative and food is wonderful, I would recommend.

    overall I'd rate it a 9 half/10 as everything was perfect except the stuffiness which could be sorted by turning the air con on colder!

    My general comment is that I would recommend this restaurant. However, it is pricy and I would suggest that they would lower the prices slightly and also serve the vegetables with the main course inclusive of the main course price.

    The staff and the owner all work very hard and make you feel very welcome.

    Ancora Italian Restaurant: This is the best italian restaurant in the area. The food is fantastic, and service is better. All staff are knowledgeable and friendly. A background singer/acoustic guitarist plays at weekends which gives the restaurant a wonderful atmosphere. A little pricey but worth every penny.

    The service at Hadleigh Italian Ancora was too prompt here, it felt a bit rushed. However, the quality of the food made up for it. It tasted wonderful and was cooked perfectly. The staff are friendly and helpful too.
