Just outside Saffron Walden. More young families and cyclists than bikers but didn’t feel like a leper etc.. https://www.compasscourtyard.co.uk/
Ells Kitchen Cafe on the A420 just before the Cold Ashton Roundabout (A46 junction). Proper old school cafe with proper mugs of tea and proper sausage sandwiches. https://www.google.com/maps/place/E...try=ttu&g_ep=EgoyMDI1MDcxNS4xIKXMDSoASAFQAw==
