B&D's Cafe & Grill in Basildon

All fresh cooked food it was excellent highly recommended you ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Always enjoy eating at this venue. Food always good. Atmosphere great as Tracey always laughing and joking with customers and you would know her laugh anywhere

Rude staff. They didn’t have chips. Okay, pie and mash then. They don’t have pie. The alternative offered was “there’s a chip shop round the corner.” Like why do you even have a menu?

I ordered from Just Eat, half my order eas missing and as you can see there was mould on my food, im a vulnerable person and this could have put me in hospital, im very disappointed

Didn't eat there, went for concert, staff were very friendly and helpful, atmosphere was amazing. Great place.

We have been here once before after hearing about it from family and friends. We had a breakfast each costing £7:50 hot drinks included. The staff are friendly and cheerful and service is quick. Everything was cooked just right. The sausages are a particular of mine. They are very tasty Cumberland sausages and not the usual catering tasteless ones your usually served. We broke up our bus journey just to get off and have breakfast/lunch here. The menu isn't massive but it's enough to keep us, the large amount of tradesmen and the locals happy 😊.

Disappointed. Normally great, but panini is listed with chips or salad on just eat, no option to select which one but assumed one would be packaged with the product. This did not happen, ended up with the panini by itself. Called to ask where the chips were and was told I should have specified. Not ideal and not great customer service imo, wouldn’t have been hard to deliver the chips separately and admit fault. Will probably avoid from now on.

food was lovely, nice hot and super quick thank you.

Cold and overcooked food. Stale bread. Not normal from here may I add. But today it went in the bin.

Lovely local cafe, good value, good food, good prices!

Popped in today for brekkie. Good sandwich

Nothing wrong with this place. Good food, clean & just a nice place.

Popped in today for lunch with family . Had jacket potato with cheese and beans, and cheese omlet with chips 😋😋🙋‍♂️🙋‍♀️👍

Not a problem being early was less than five minutes

Popped in for lunch.. had the cheese burger and chips with a side of onion rings. Very down to earth and relaxed atmosphere and staff were so friendly, efficient and made as laugh at times. We were served by Tristan who is a lovely young man. Will definitely be back! Thanks guys ❤️❤️

Waited just under 2 hours for the food and it arrived atone cold, I called the restaurant they told me there is nothing they can do and to contact just eat

Order was well over an hour late and by the time it turned up it was freezing cold & inedible - very disappointing to say the least!

First time using this cafe. Food was absolutley amazing. Delivered a little early. Just a shame half of it was missing. (Probably why it was delivered early lol). Tried contacting the restaurant for about 3o minutes but no one answered the phone so gave up and requested a refund. Such a shame as the food was so nice.

This place is awesome,rant to order delivery but ordered collect by mistake, my bad.

Missing 2 portions chips with breakfasts

Had a lovely full English last week, perfectly cooked fried eggs and crispy bacon. Will be back soon.

Fantastic local cafe serving some of the best breakfasts in Essex! A family favourite is their sausage sandwich, you can tell the sausages are proper butchers sausages and the bread is always so fresh! Staff are lovely, would definitely recommend to anyone to visit!

This place used to be nice. Just went for breaky with my family and they forgot half our order! The worst thing was the constant swearing from the staff in the kitchen and front of house, there was not regard for the fact there were children in there. The man who served us though was nice. Will not be returning

Lovely staff food good. Tracey manageress is very helpful.

Food was lovely and hot, cannot be faulted. Only gripe is that the chips were missing from both breakfasts. Shame, but rest of it was lovely.

Lovely people who serve you but I think the breakfast is a bit pricey at £10 especially the veggie one and more options for the smaller/lighter breakfasts would be good. I also didn’t see a kids breakfast so not sure if there is one or not. I like the idea of making your own but i think 1.75 an item is a bit steep. Food was nice though and not too greasy the only thing we weren’t Keen on weren’t the mushrooms. Would also be good to say which sausages they are on the menu (veggie Richmond sausages) in case of allergies :) nice little cafe and free parking too.

Had an amazing breakfast as always from here today Lovely Xxxx

Lovely food, good value & no plastic or polystyrene :) Definitely recommend!!

Cannot fault the food at all it was amazing loving the packaging it come in

I thoroughly recommend the smoked salmon and poached egg. It is delicious and a portion is just right for two of us!

Mushrooms were gritty and order notes were ignored 😔

Food is not the best quality left a lot of it due to not being that nice tbh

Went in here for a breakfast yesterday, stay away it was disgusting, the mushrooms on the plate stunk and were swimming in fat , it was all cold and had all been reheated. There was a hair in the hash brown Spend your money elsewhere.

Top quality is all I have to say. Thanks guys!

Not all of the items listed on the menu come with the breakfast (chips,1egg,1sausage missing) Ordered super king breakfast was charged for it and 3 items was missing All over cooked and not very nice Beans and buttered bread was only thing that was ok to eat The bread for the salmon was rock hard and uneatable. Shame as this used to be a really lovely cafe

Nice local cafe good food and service

great food, great staff and great service !!

Everything on full English was cold except hash browns Toast was great

Had breakfast this morning, ate my food and I was immediately sick on the floor due to hairs in my breakfast, staff were happy replace the one with the wig in it but I declined but got 50 percent of my money back so I'm happy!!!!

It is possible to have breakfast and lunch. Instead of a prepared salad, a takeaway option is available. The environment is simple, the service is pleasant.

Was cold didn’t even eat it such a shame I love going here aswell

Nice little cafe. Nice staff too.

Cannot be relied on to be open on the nights advertised

Had breakfast here today. Was given dirty cutlery which I had to ask to be changed. The food was cold. The only nice thing on the plate was the sausage The rest needed to be cooked longer. Could not use the brown sauce on the table as it was blocked, and the bottle had alot of dried sauce which means it hasn't been cleaned for a while. Was very disappointed 😞

Disgusting attitude the staff and other customers had today watched them deny a pregnant woman a seat to eat the staff I even watched them kick a elderly man out of the shop who was trying to get warm from the snow the staff here are disgusting with the way they speak and the attitude needs to change I would not recommend coming here as their is far better places to eat down the road at the town

Definitely my favourite breakfast joint to go to wherever I'm at Basildon 😁

ordered a superking breakfast that is supposed to come with chips they didn't arrive i called and was told it was a mistake on the published menu and they will change it to reflect no chips but they would do nothing else for me, if I knew beforehand i wouldn't have ordered from here, terrible customer service

Used to be good until they started serving rotten fish and old bread. They cant even cook chicken right its deplorable. There is a fish and chip shop next to Spar, they actually know how to cook food. Save your wallet and stomach.

All food was cold when arrived and drink was changed without a call to ask - also pizza was smothered in herbs with was overpowering

delivery driver was to idiot to come to me and I didn't receive any food or money refunded.

I ate in during a mid week evening. What you see is what you get. Wholesome food that won't break the bank. Staff are generally friendly but some times under pressure when the phone orders arrive in batches. They were one member of staff down the night I ate. There were a few issues during my meal, but not so much with the food which was enjoyable. 1) The till froze attracting multiple members of staff to try and sort it out and that put the kitchen behind. 2) Some of the menu descriptions do not match the instructions on the till. For example a boneless chicken platter was shown on the menu including 6 chicken strips, but the till instruction to the kitchen only allows for 4 strips to be cooked. Staff explained the menu is awaiting update but happily coock me the extra strips as advertised. 3) Some items were unavailable such as chicken wings ( sold the last portion during lunch), and Pepperoni for the pizzas so stock control can be better. 4) They run a two shift system ...breakfast/lunch menu and then an evening dinner menu, cooked by different teams. Some times wonder if the hand over from the morning to the evening staff is as efficient as it should be .

Really nice food, will defo be ordering from here again

All very nice. Ordered last week and we needed to reheat as it was a bit cool, but this week was much better.

Walked in to the cafe no queue, staff chatting chewing on a lolly , saw me and carried on talking , said I will be with u in a min, she eventually came over, I asked if she had rolls left ,she said no, so I asked if the baguettes were soft or hard , she put her hands all over it, I said no thanks and left , maybe need a refresher course in food hygiene.

Got breakfast to take away was excellent

Lovely little cafe. Nice food and friendly service

The best all around food and I’d say it’s like having homemade cooking. Made with love and passion …seriously always top notch. Thanks once again

Always great food, good portions, love this place

Food was great, love this place

Best Turkish in town really enjoyed it

Very late! Chips in meal were soft and not many of them! This is the last time we order!

Best cafe in town. Tge people are always so happy

I am one of the customer who complained now they improved well done good service value for the money. Tasty. It's our local shop. We'll done. Sorry for the past complained

Likely will not order again as the chips were stale, there was no sauce in the burger yet when ordering said there would be. I asked for an apple juice and got a orange juice. Spicy rice was also cold. Service was quick but shame about the food quality

Was really disappointed with the delivery charge 3:99 when it was supposed to be free ,food wasn’t great and cold

Good food as always, love the herb and lemon wings yummy

Ordered a portion of fudge cake with ice cream and the ice cream was missing. This was at 4.30 in the afternoon so with such a small order should not have been missed, not the first time the order has been wrong with missing items . Disappointing!

£2.50 for a corn on the cob a bit expensive, chicken looked like it was yesterday's chips not nice at all. Maybe I should have sent it back won't be buying fried chicken again

Perfect breakfast for a hangover cure

We had the chicken tonight could not eat it It was so dry I Threw it away very disappointed

Best sandwich I’ve had in a long time

Food was delicious couldn't eat it all so much food I recommend this place

Got a coffee instead of tea I ordered and didn’t get chips with order

Love it. Lovely staff and good food

Absolutely terrible, took 3 bites of the baguette then threw them in the bin sausage was horrible and bacon might as well of not been cooked at all. Shocking

Good chicken, good ribs, yummy x

In the app the butterfly burger comes with salad and cheese, however, none of the stated was delivered. When called, the lady accepted that the mess up was on their side but failed to offer anything but a good luck for the next time. So good luck to you if ordering.

Good ribs, good chicken, yummy!

Pizza wasn't cut up and was warm, but not hot. Average food; thus average rating

The best grilled chicken around.. beats Nando’s!

One of the shakes had spilt and half of it was in the bag. Other than that it is really nice

The restaurant was amazing as always unfortunately the just eat driver failed to deliver my drink which the restaurant gave him and with no way of contacting just eat directly I cannot complain

my box meal was missing fries, got wrong drink food was cold was last chance for this restaurant absolute rubbish will never use it again

Excellent ribs and chicken wings with lebanese flavour, recommended 100%

Not bad at all for a small cafe.

Wow, delicious hot and filling breakfast! Highly recommended, lovely staff too.

Worst takeaway I’ve ever had from B&D! Ordered two southern fried chicken burgers, got stale buns with three small pieces of what must have been sitting around for hours as it was dry tough chicken pieces which were hard to eat. The cheese burger meal was perfectly fine. We left the burgers and ate the fries and side of wings. Don’t know what has happened to this takeaway as it used to be soo good but of late the quality of food coming out of the shop has gone down. Sorry won’t be back ! We won’t be expecting a reply to justify the standard of food. Foxes will eat it I’m sure !

the delivery was the wrong house

First time ı have order. Food was excellent ı dont know why ı did not try sooner

Food is nice Staff are friendly

Kids chicken strips and chicken burger meal sooo spicey my kids screamed. Burger was pink , gutted tbh requested refund and denied I never complain but this was unacceptable.had it once before and was lovely however after this experience never again truely gutted 100% not for kids my 6 and 7 year old was screaming and it was spicey I tried myself.

Really pleased with my meal very nice delivery man !

Awful responsibility for there own drivers and when the driver gets lost for 45 minutes after asking you to walk around and look for them.and they still don't turn up and then they refuse to give you a refund or even replace the food you've ordered with hot food....absolute shambles.....

Lovely friendly staff, fresh food and the coffee is the best 😊

Just had a peri chicken hot sauce and peri chips, all credit to the young chef poppy (name was on her chef jacket) it was cooked perfectly and hot, would now definitely recommend

Fresh high quality food. Best burgers in Basildon. High recommend

This order was never received, money taken and the driver turned back without dropping order. No word from Just Eat even after sending a message

Rang immediately when realised what I had ordered was sold out. Very helpful and offered a good replacement

Fantastic cafe, top notch food and staff, spotlessly clean also.

Beautiful moist chicken and ribs, full of flavour. Better than Nando’s
