Bean Away in Basildon

Friendly welcoming staff and amazing food including unique foods separating them from other quick food cafes.

Very good fish and chips thanks to the oil used. Strange opening times at lunch time.Limited access.

The ‘Coach’ was by local during my formative years nearly 50 years ago and I still pop in now and again. Good beer and food, and always friendly service.

Huge outside area at the back with a small bar. Inside it's as cosy as ever with a great atmosphere and friendly staff. Would recommend

We have been here a few times and returned for their new years eve dinner which was spectacular. It was a set menu which included dishes I wouldnt usually order but was delicious and plates were clean after every course! Usually mass catering leads to cold food and differences in serving but not here. The well organised kitchen and team work of the staff was obvious, every dish was warm and they came out within seconds of eachother. The staff couldnt have done enough for us, from serving canapés to topping up our drinks, discretely and politely. It's clear that the staff enjoy their job, they joined in with us customers to celebrate at midnight which was lovely. The disco , saxophone lady and roulette were very welcome fun touches to the night. Thankyou magic mushroom for an unforgettable evening. We can't wait to return next year
