Beach House in Maldon

A lovely place to eat with grear views. Excellent service, food freshly cooked.

My Mum (91) loves going to the Beach House. All the staff are so helpful and always smiling. The food has been outstanding every time we have been there and the eating areas are always very clean . Well worth a visit

I’ve tried eating here twice, both times have been a disaster, hopeless staff that haven’t got a clue , and are confused about there are menu. Was told that cream tea needs to be ordered 24hrs in advance but it makes no mention of this on the menu. Tried to order a breakfast but refused to make it. Again no mention of timings on the menu. Staff leave you sitting at a dirty table and despite asking for a menu twice they just ignored us. Nice location let down by dire service from staff who simply couldn’t care less. Gave up and left without eating for the 2nd time. Won’t bother to try again.

We were visiting friends and the Beach House is really nice for a few drinks and a beautiful view, friendly staff and good entertainment.

Had the best time.I have lived in Essex for over 45 years and have never been there.It was worth the wait

We had a lovely coffee, sar outside.

Absolutely amazing food,staff are really friendly and accomadating. 1 con is they need umbrellas outside its too hot to sit outside in the sun in front of the glass screen.wouldnt stop me going but its a shame we couldn't sit outside for our meal.

Maybe clean your cleaning cloths once a month whether they need it or not! Proper grim tables

Great simple food and a lovely setting.

We love this gem at mill beach in heybridge

The salmon was delicious, skate was beautiful and seafood platter was perfect. Lovely view. Kieron is a brilliant chef.

Sunday morning, early April. Full English breakfast was perfect.

Nice place to stop after a long walk

Excellent little cafe with good views, staff are all cheerful and helpful.

Needs to become dog friendly inside. In the winter months dog walkers are the main potential clientele but who wants to sit outside with the wind and rain swirling around freezing cold!

Amazing roast dinner delicious huge and in my top 3 best roast ever, friendly service

Only a short drive from home but you feel like you're on holiday with the wonderful view of the river and boats. On a sunny day, nowhere better.

Lovely place to sit out and relax, food very good

Lovely place cannot wait to go back highly recommend

lovely outlook, very busy weekends, good food and service, entertainment, gets a bit noisy though with large groups of people.

Attended the Beach House on Saturday, was served the most amazing fish and chips ever ! Hats off to the chef. Well done 👏

Great food and and amazing views.

Great coffee stop along the Blackwater

Nice clean restaurant, friendly staff and great food. Nice views of the water and boats.

Often pop in for a coffee and cake .. great place and service.. But sitting having a coffee yesterday 9th February after a river walk and some guy starts smoking an E cigarette and puffing clouds of smoke everywhere....inconsiderate or what...but no staff asked him to smoke outside where others do .or leave or put it out ...sorry but not impressed. Is this legal !!

Hi Everyone I really like this place the view over the estuary is fantastic. However when we arrived the kitchen had no cook and as I understand it has trouble keeping its kitchen staff. The beer was good and the staff friendly and helpful but no food past salt and vinegar crisps.

Small pleasant cafe with outdoor verandah and superb view. Friendly staff but small basic menu lunch choice. Great position.

What a great little restaurant. After a lovely walk went in for dinner. Delicious !!

Fantastic breakfast. Clean, warm place with lovely staff. Thank you

Lovely spot, tasty food and pleasant staff. Will be back.

Took my Mum there today for the first time for some lunch. The staff, the food and the view were all absolutely excellent. I can't recommend the place highly enough!!

Food is good, drinks are good and staff are so friendly they really enjoy their jobs

Very pleasant to visit outstanding views

Good food .big portions. Good price what's not to like.

Very welcoming and good choice of drinks, stunning views at sunrise and sunset. Also get to see lots of water activities.

Had a lovely lunch with friends nice food, friendly and very efficient staff.

Very nice place for food and drink, friendly staff, and a fab view, we,ll be returning for sure.

Only had a couple of beers, but the view over the river is excellent

Great views over the Blackwarer

Lovely views and a good cup of tea

Clean and friendly staff and good music. Not very laud but enjoyable. View is always an extra bonus. Highly recommended for a nice chill out afternoon.

Great place to eat , generous portions, good price and a great view.Clean place with lovely friendly staff ... A great gem of a find !

Food was spectacular and 28 people are hard to please ,They were all in awe with the delicious food and all agreed presentation and service was spectacular . 💯💯💯

Second time we have eaten here. Both times exceptional service and food is freshly cooked , plentiful and really tasty. Can’t fault it. Thank you from Mavis and family.

Only had a cup of tea but it was lovely!

Popped in for lunch and a hot drink whilst on a walk. Very good food with generous portions. Home made soup was yummy. Ambience good.

Stopped off for a bit of brunch (at least we had hoped to) whilst walking from Heybridge Basin to Osea. It was a Sunday around 11.20hrs and the sign outside said food served Sunday’s 9am-3pm. Went in to get a menu as we were sitting outside and when went back I. To order I was told that the kitchen has now closed until 12.00hrs to turn around from breakfast to lunch service. We decided to wait the 30 mins and placed our order. Did receive the sandwiches about 5 mins to 12 (were given free mince pies to tide us over the waiting time) but the two glasses of tap water we ordered along with the hot drinks and food never turned up and the fries had also been forgotten but quickly rectified. The food was good and the terrace outside has great views and as it’s slightly elevated and has glass screening feels separated from the Defense wall walk. Please correct your signage outside re food times. Would give them another go though.

Only stopped for coffee but was really impressed with the staff & decor. They seem to have some good food on offer, so will come back for lunch. Great views over the water. We walked from Heybridge Basin. A great 5 mile walk, mostly flat, along the coastal path to Goldhanger. The Beach House is about 2 miles out from Heybridge Basin, so you can break the walk if required. Beware that, unless you want to walk back from Goldhanger as we did, the buses from Goldhanger to Heybridge Basin are infrequent & taxis aren’t always available. It’s an awesome 10 miles round trip walk.
