About this restaurant

Neighborhood gem
Good for special occasions
Charming

At our restaurant, we believe that dining is more than just a meal—it's an experience that brings people together. Our ethos is built on the foundation of family, community, and shared moments.
We understand that family doesn't have to be defined by blood; it includes friends, partners, and anyone with whom we share a special bond.

We offer seating across two floors, and you are welcome to request either upstairs or downstairs seating when making your reservation. However, please note that during busy periods, we may not always be able to guarantee your preferred seating choice. If you have any accessibility or mobility concerns, kindly mention them in your booking, and we will do our best to accommodate your needs. Thank you for your understanding!

We had ham & mushroom pizza which was tasty, perhaps a little salty and we would have liked the option of regular pizza dough as well as sourdough. We also had a sea bass dish which was excellent with great tasting mash and perfectly cooked green beans. I would have liked the option for more beans to be available rather than just a mixed veg including potato option. I did not ask for this do it may well be available, just not on the menu. To finish we had vanilla and pistachio ice creams - great taste. Looking forward to returning.

I have been to Trio 3/4 times and the food was amazing! Not sure I’ll go back had really gone down hill. There was only our table of 4 and one table of 2 yet the food took ages to come even pasta with sauce for my 1 year old grandson. Had to send a meal back that my mother had eaten on other visits she said it was so different and didn’t like it at all! The waitress was great an immediately ordered something else but this took a long time and when it came we had all finished. Went there for my birthday for lunch. Previously the restaurant has been really busy. This time no atmosphere. Be a shame for Trio not to get back to ware they were saffron Walden needs a lovely restaurant

Very responsive, helpful and knowledgeable staff. Quick service with well presented food. Food would stay hot longer by using pre heated plates. The special tiramisu seemed rather lacking in flavour to both of us. We will visit again
