Harry's Bar in Basildon

Just had Sunday lunch for 6 food was amazing service excellent atmosphere perfect! Excellent value for money 2 courses £26! Highly recommended

Dom the security man was so kind and made us feel so safe and secure !!! Thanks again!

Excellent food, drinks and service, will definitely visit again.

First visit to Harry’s Bar. Staff were attentive and friendly, especially Hannah!! Good food, good atmosphere- what’s not to like! Will definitely be back.

Very dingy dull and not particularly clean with over priced drinks

Closed when it says open. Was hoping for a few cocktails!!

Really good food and service considering the size of the table every dish came out correct and hot & delicious I believe. Noisy bar but if that’s what you’re into then great (it was jam Packed so I’m guessing it’s known for loud liveliness) I’m just over that now but was a great night out with good food & friends.

Best accolade it's not a carvery It's a quality Sunday roast served in style by very attentive staff, great selection of drinks even if you don't like veg the way they cook veg is a game changer, proper gravy and to die for Yorkshires, Cauliflower cheese is a must have side, pigs in blankets if sharing as you will be stuffed, Gary

Good night out 👍🏻 didn’t eat just drinks

Fantastic service and yummy food. After food we went through to the bar, great dj and atmosphere. Will definitely be returning

Pleasantly surprised. Good food, good atmosphere. Added bonus of live music with awesome singers!

Went here last minute due to another venue we'd booked being a disappointment. Booked at 11th hour. They had availability and did not disappoint. Superb menu, splendid food and great service.

It's a good starting place to vet you going for the evening. Bar is always a bit sti by though and ends up with a wet sleeve. I always go back so that as to be a good thing

Had a fantastic Sunday lunch this week. 3 meat option which was HUGE ! Had to take some home for next days lunch! Xx

celebrated wife's birthday,food was good and great music by the dj plus live singers..Great atmosphere and well recommended..plus the wife mislaid her handbag but was found by one of the security staff think hes name was Danny? so he deserves a pat on the back

celebrated my wife's 60th birthday what a great night with family and friends,great food and music...

Original plan was to dine at French Martini's but i vetoed this; and what a good decision that was! had a marvelous lunch at Harry's & i'm so glad we changed our minds. Delicious Tapas provided, a generous seafood platter of chilli garlic prawns, salt & chilli squid, salmon & dill fishcakes, whitebait, grilled ciabatta, Asian pork belly, parmesan arancini, grilled halloumi, patatas bravas, truffle fries.... delicious food, beautiful company.. a great evening

The Tapas was excellent, hot ( heat wise) and timely served. Service attentive and professional. The restaurant was full so wise to book.

Lots of variety of tapas dishes, we had 3 each and that was plenty. No room for dessert! Cocktails were freshly made and absolutely lovely. Attentive staff, very friendly.

We had a great night celebrating a friend’s birthday. We had the tapas and it was lovely with a great choice of dishes. Friendly staff and great service.

Really happy atmosphere. Had good service with good food. Service was good and the cocktails had. A good range and were tasty!

Had our local juiceplus event here a really nice place. we enjoyed it so much we have booked it for our events in the near future which anyone can come to

Loved it our server didn't get her name was fantastic Food was great.

Came here for a celebration night out, service was great the whole way through. Tapas was nice, not entirely authentic but everything was really tasty and cooked well. Particularly the Garlic Prawns and the Battered Halloumi, both of which are so easy to get wrong. We then moved into the bar, cocktails were really good and the live singers really made the evening

Had a meeting with approximately 40 people on Monday night. Service was exceptional. Staff friendly and everything spotless. We had scrumptious fish pie. Followed by sticky toffee pudding and ice cream. Overall we all agreed it’s a great venue for our meetings thanks mainly to the super efficient servers and bar staff. Definitely plan on a revisit with my wife.

Staff were very attentive and friendly, food was lovely and music was really good

Few of the tapas wasn’t available which was disappointing as not a lot on menu anyway .

Wonderful. Lovely staff. Thank you. We had the fish platter. Amazing!!

A very nice cocktail bar but its best to book in advance if you want a space as it gets quite busy

Went for lunch with friends on a quiet day (sometimes it’s quite busy outside). Service received was excellent and friendly and we were there a while but not rushed to leave. Their lunchtime tapas menu was outstanding. Definitely recommend and we will be back

As always another great evening at Harry’s bar & restaurant. A warm welcome, great value food & drink. A firm favourite for a great night out.

Food was fab service good, not very busy though so atmosphere was lacking

Lovely dining area, attentive service and the food was tasty. A very enjoyable night.

Great atmosphere, excellent music - Danny Talbot was DJ ing there every 4th Friday of month. Other DJs are good too. Nice people, not clicky. Would like to try food oneday, restaurant looks very good.

Exceptional Hospitality, we attended as a party of three and was treated with the upmost respect and dignity. The staff were fantastic to catering to all of our parties needs. They were attentive and proactive on ensuring our evening ran smoothly. It's for this reason, that I would highly recommend Harry's Bar to provide an exceptional evening out!

Great venue, reasonably priced and great service. Particuarly enjoyed the terrace, a lovely touch.

Only popped in for one drink pre-dinner at another restaurant but no complaints. It was early so there wasn’t much atmosphere but staff were friendly, service was decent, so no complaints.

The roast lunch was really good but the carpet & glasses on the table were filthy. Carpet had bit of food left from night/day before & lipstick on a lot of the water glasses. We were the first customers that day so no excuse for dirty things. The staff were very polite & attentive.

What a pretentious place. Half empty but bouncers refused my wife and I entry. First IDing us?! (we're in our 40s) then moaning about trainers despite people inside already wearing them. Ended up going next door to a busy Chequers pub and had a great night. Friendly, welcoming staff there. When we left the still busy Chequers, we saw that Harry's bar was completely empty. No surprise really.

Popped in with my wife on Friday afternoon Had a couple of aperol spritz and the fish platter in the rear seating area. Comfortable seating nice atmosphere. Food was delicious and nicely presented, staff great Overall a lovely experience

Lovely evening at Harry’s Bar. We were sat at the back in the conservatory for drinks then sat down to eat. Good value tapas, really nice atmosphere. Will definitely return.

Great service for my birthday drinks gathering and lovely sharing platters and tapas. Thanks for making my day special!

Ifci could give minus 10 I would ! The worst place in Essex, probably the world. Drinks that tasted nothing like they should, infact like nothing i have ever tasted. Bar staff who couldn't give a hoot about customer service. Old, dirty toilets. I couldn't wait to leave

Service was excellent. The menu was disappointing and extremely limited. Either tapas, or a choice of about 3 main courses, some of which were restricted due to availability. Additionally, it’s very noisy so don’t expect to have easy conversations with your fellow diners! I wouldn’t go back.

Been to the restaurant a few times and always get great service. The tapas style food is lovely and the staff are all so friendly and helpful.

Was looking for somewhere on the High Street to grab a quick bite for lunch with my 17 year son and his girlfriend. We were left standing at the door for some time …….. after approaching staff at the bar we asked if they had a table for 3 for lunch . There were many empty tables at the back of the restaurant but we were told they had nothing available. The waiter then proceeded to tell us that he wouldn’t serve us anyway even if they did have a table as my son was wearing a tracksuit ! Being in hospitality myself I completely understand this in the evening but this was 2.30 in the afternoon in a normal bar on the high street ! It was a smart tracksuit , not gym wear . Know your place , I will not be returning.

Awesome tapas with interesting sauces. Very attentive staff and excellent cocktails.

Very disappointed, security asked my husband to leave the bar just because he was wearing a smart plain black Gucci trainer. But in the meantime security let in the guy with the balenciaga trainer with a white sole. When I challenged security with the question why-he said because he’s trainers are expensive. Without arguing We just walked a way. I think rules should be the same for everyone. End of the day it’s their loss as we spend 800£ in other bar. Tip off the day: plain shoes most of the time cost much more than flashing labels. Good luck 🤞🏻

Had Sunday Lunch & it was the without doubt the best I have had in the area. The beef was cooked to perfection.

Lovely roast as ever (although please do a gluten free cauliflower cheese soon!!) , great drinks, good service. Lovely atmosphere.

Harry’s Bar is fantastic. The food was superb, beautifully presented and delicious. The staff were so attentive - our glasses were regularly topped up with the best rosè wine. The music they play really adds to the happy atmosphere. A good time is always had by all. 10/10.

Manager was really rude!! Very abrupt and an awful host. Music kept cutting out after DJ but manager unhappy to help.

We had a lovely time the food was amazing as well as the staff friendly and made our visit a lovely time Shall definitely recommend and be back soon

Amazing lunch for me and the family today great food and service would recommend if GF needed All the staff were friendly and helpful a great birthday treat for mum

Another great evening of lovely food, well mixed cocktails and friendly staff. Very reasonably priced as always & even more value with the current midweek deal. Thank you Jay & Ingrid.

There are lots of places to go for a drink in Billericay high street but here is by far the best service. Friendly staff and great atmosphere. It’s a chilled vibe during the week and gets busy on a weekend evenings. We love it here!

I booked to go for my 24th birthday with my boyfriend. Nowhere on the website did it say that it was over 25s but this wasn’t the reason we got turned away. It was because my boyfriend had paired his smart trousers with smart trainers. I understand if we’d turned up without a booking for a drink but you just lost a dining customer not only for tonight but for the future too.

Never again me and my partner Saturday night 2 double vodka and cokes £19.40 it's billericay not the west end ..sorry but not being tight but come on liberty taking

Ordered Sunday lunch , meat was gristle and rare difficult to cut . Dinner was Luke warm . Drink was not chilled as requested. Money was not charged for meal . Staff were inexperienced. Will not go back again . It’s a shame because it used to be nice .

Amazing food and service, vibe was good defo recommended

Booked last minute for Valentine’s Day and received an amazing service from the staff and the food was second to none. Will definitely be making this a regular haunt

If you want to be treated like absolute scum after spending ALOT of money this place then by all means go. if not maybe try anywhere else. ANYWHERE ELSE!!

Lovely food and drinks, good music to dance to after.

Food very good and a half decent pint of Guinness. Reasonable prices. Tasteful decor and great service.

The food is absolutely amazing! Best meal I've had in a long time! Lovely staff too!

Was quite chilly in there and not much atmosphere. No music even. We were the only two people in there.

Great place for meeting my future x wife lol

Had a great night out for my birthday Friday! Food was very tasty , staff was lovely! we danced the night away me and my girls had a great time!! will return definitely 😁

Just passing through the area. Walked in on a rainy Sunday afternoon. Staff were amazingly friendly and soon sorted us a table for four, and highchair. Was advised about the waiting time and then updated so we were able to order and eat within a very reasonable time. Food was very tasty, plentiful and hot. Customer service excellent. Will definitely visit again.

Have only had wine or cocktails here and always excellent drinks (but please don't skimp on the lime slices in G'nT's and you need to squeeze the fruit in as you add it!) at reassuringly expensive prices... You get what you pay for. Friendly efficient staff.

Ingrid was our waitress and she was amazing. The service from her was great, nothing was too much. She defo made our experience much more entertaining. The whole night was fun, food was amazing and the cocktails were yum! Thank you for a great night 😊

Service and food was sublime, my brother and I love it. Especially the party vibe afterwards as we can dance the food off 🤣

Really a great place for Saturday night, tapas was delicious and hot. Music while we was eating. Staff very helpful & friendly.

Nice decor, extensive menu with some great tapas and cocktail options for a Saturday night

Food was lovely. Staff very friendly good place to meet up with friends.

Really great food. Friendly, attentive service and fab entertainment!

We had a fabulous time at Harry’s Bar. The servers were amazing and attentive, the food lovely and enjoyed a dance afterwards.

My brother and I had the fish pie special which was beautifully presented in a skillet Pie was covered in lovely mash potato pie had lovely delicately smoked fish and king prawns in a creamy white wine sauce which was delicious, served with side of tender stem broccoli, green beans and peas which had a lovely light crunch. Which we had with a lovely chilean sauvignon blanc. Service was excellent all members of the team were warm and friendly. A fabulous dining experience.

Great 👍 Sunday roast look forward to going back Would highly recommend

I use to have a night out in Billericay before lockdown and enjoyed a night in Harrys Bar and it was a classy place but on this recent visit it's gone down hill. Very drunk loud typical Essex type just out to get off their face ( At 9pm mist already loud and staggering around)and I imagine the bar needs two security on the door because I bet things kick off as it gets past midnight. The female toilets had no loo roll and dirty Taps barely worked so plumbing needs to be sorted, and trying to get up the stairs past those that could barely walk up them. The staff was mixed, I had two cocktails that a young male bartender made which was nice but the girls working the bar very unfriendly with a resting B face which gives off the impression they would rather not be working, Mind you maybe that's due to the lot that choose to drink in the bar. After a few drinks I left with my friend to a close by pub that was great and we enjoyed the rest of our night there. Think Harry's is now more a meat market clubby get off your face place and dress as tarty as you can lol Think that the daytime would be better because I have heard the food is nice so will do lunch in the future.

Lovely place, the food was good.

Delicious food and drink, gorgeous decor, spotlessly clean, buzzy atmosphere, excellent service and fun place to go!

Had a lovely time with friends at Harry's Bar. Great service and tasty food. The decor was very nice too. Will definitely be going back.

Even though one other group of two in the entire place I had to ask for service after waiting 42 minutes to order food. 5 staff were chattng at the bar but to engrossed to notice we were waiting. Place has lovely decor but let down by poor service. Wouldn't recommend based on our experience

Good service, quick to serve, however we all agreed the cocktails were too sweet

Just popped on for a gin and tonic. Good service and very helpful bar staff. Really pleasant experience, thankyou

Good service and reasonable selection of beers. Friendly locals who kindly gave up their seats for our large group.

Great food and good value, only 4 stars as the service was quite slow

Really nice atmosphere, great staff, no discriminations what so ever. Food was hot, even though we didn't get our Yorkshire pudding lol, we did get extra stuffing. Although it was made with pork and I'm allergic to pork. Thankfully I only ate two little bits. But yeah great place!

Great venue, clean and service was good. Points lost for telling my friend and I they called last orders at 1 to then have called them early and refuse to serve us at 12.40. Barman explained when it isn't that busy they call it early...

Quite a disappointing visit for Mothers Day dinner with my daughters, booked a reservation in the restaurant, only to be sat in the bar area, although the food was good, the service was slow & inattentive, I’m assuming because we was tucked away in the bar away, we were kind of forgotten about Wouldn’t rush back

Great lively venue. Friendly staff. Fantastic food. Our new go to place.

Had a Sunday lunch here. Give food and service 7 out of 10 quite good. Had the 3 course for £26 service there were 9 of us. Not sure if I'd go back especially at £6.50 a pint of Beaverton beer

Very nice place with a mix of sit down dinner places and dance floor.

I've been to this bar more times than I can count. I went there tonight with friends from university and the bouncer refused entry to a friend of mine for wearing trainers. They still wouldn't let us in after a change of footwear for no good reason. Avoid at all costs. French martini far more accommodating.

Had the best Xmas lunch, totally recommend, fantastic food and service, definitely going back, it’s a little gem well worth a visit 👍🏻

Attended an evening Soul music event on a Friday night, bar staff reasonably rapid on service, security friendly and on the case 👍

We have just had a delicious Sunday roast at Harry’s Bar. 6 of us ate a 2 course meal and we all said it was the best roast we had had out in ages! It was also really good value for money. The staff were...

Went to go for a few drinks with friends. Arrived just after 11 and whilst the website says it’s open till 1pm they wouldn’t let us in, saying that they close the doors at 11. However could see people were still in there and being...
