We went for a fun catch up over lunch . One of the older waitresses said there was no table ... on the way out another waitress asked us if we wanted a table and seated us with ease . The food was not as good as it used to be and staff not as friendly . The younger staff are polite but the older ones are very hit and miss which does affect the enjoyment . This used to be our venue of choice but now apart from the location it has lost its appeal . The smaller restaurants are more personable and professional we will avoid this one and hope it gets back on track .

Head staff were very rude and service terrible .. the main food took forever , sides didn’t come with the main dishes when they did finally arrive . Only one desert came we reminded them two times we was still waiting then the head waiter rudely told us we had to go asap because the table was needed . He still insisted while we politely explained the food had taken forever and we was still waiting on a desert . We ended up rushing and even had our drinks cancelled no finding us somewhere else to finish deserts and drinks absolutely appalling . On a plus the young girl serving was embarrassed and couldn’t understand the behaviour of her superiors , it’s a shame she wasn’t in charge . The only good thing about this place is convenience but there are plenty of better options as it certainly wasn’t a cheap night maybe we should have kept complaining instead of being patient . Avoid .

Went for lunch at the end of November, 9 of us in total, from across Essex, so Shenfield was really convenient to get to by train. From the moment we arrived we were well looked after by the team - drinks in the bar, brought to travel, properly shown through and seated etc Great selection on the menu, something for everyone, and when it turned up - which didn’t take long - it was all really good. Great drinks selection - the Rioja was particularly enjoyable. All in all, a great place for a buzzy informal lunch with friends or family.

Taken over 20 min to even get a waiter to attend. If it wasn’t a Shenfield staple you’d not bother. Spent thousand of £ here over the years. Service is absolutely shocking. Bring back Martino!!! No wonder all the little places around are busy. Will update when I get my food. May be 2024!

I went here with my friend fur lunch. The waitress with the strawberry painted nails (so sorry forgot name) made the whole experience amazing. We weren’t rushed, we were made to feel very welcome. We felt extremely well looked after the whole time we were there. The food and drink was excellent and we would recommend to our friends.

My friend & I booked a table here for dinner as we had been here previously and loved it. When we arrived we asked if we could sit outside however the waitress said this is fine but would require the table back for half 7 (we arrived just gone 6) and that if we sat inside there would be no rush for giving the table back. We sat inside and most of the staff were very attentive and friendly. The food & drinks were great aswell. However when it got to about 10 past 8 we were told that our time had run out on the table and we had to leave now and that when you book it says you have 2 hours - despite a dessert menu being offered to us 10 mins before this. There was no heads up or prior warning given, the waiter then came over with the bill before we could even finish our drinks asking how we’d like to pay before we’d even discussed it. Once the bill had been paid and taken we were finishing our drink when the waiter came over for the third time and said you need to leave now and give us the table back and stood by the table waiting for us to stand up and go. Having been told there would be no rush to give the table back and not given any sort of 15 min warning so we could Atleast finish the drinks and request the bill ourselves the way this was handled completely ruined the nice food and drinks we’d had and rather than going to the bar we chose to go elsewhere because we didn’t feel welcome. Quite honestly it felt like we’d done something wrong and were being ushered out of the building. Really disappointing end to what was a nice meal out.

We all had something different and everyone cleared their plate… we will be making regular visits! Great job The Lot Bar and Restaurant! Thank you 6 brunches, 1 bottle Prosecco, 2 Buck’s Fizz, 4 coffees, 2 teas - £20 per person - excellent value.

Bar person had attitude straight away on asking about the parking outside. Waited about 10 mins for drinks even though it wasn’t busy. Food came within 2 mins of order so knew it was microwaved straight away. Although I ordered a side of chips and they were cold. King prawn linguine and a lasagne were both terrible. Linguine hardly touched but no one asked if the food was ok. Would not vibist again!

I have had a meal in lot which was a very good meal. However our table was booked for 06,30 and we were less than 10 minutes late which was not a problem. Once we had our meal we were asked if we wanted dessert which we declined. At that point they might as well just handed us our coats. We were given the bill without being asked if we wanted anything else as they were already had cleared the tables ready for breakfast tomorrow morning. Quite literally we had had our meal ordered and eaten in less than 2 hours. (So much for an evening out). On the basis that this is a Sunday evening on the last bank holiday of the year and one would think they would want your money, they couldn't get rid of us quick enough.

The previous two times I've been there with my partner for brunch - I ordered the smashed avocado with poached eggs both times, and he had the big english breakfast. The food was divine and a great start to our day, along with great coffees/lattes to wash down the food (they have an extensive choice of dairy-free milks:- coconut, soya & almond).

Rocked up tonight as sans kids. We've been here many times but feel compelled to leave a review. Firstly, were not regulars in the context of some but pleasantly surprised to have received the warm welcome we did. The restaurant was surprisingly busy too but that's testament to them serving their market. Food was fab, service was great but then it always is. I've been here for a coffee after a bike ride on a Sunday, great. I've been here (when perhaps I should've left a couple of hours before) on a Friday night, fabulous. It's not 'chavvy' and it's not loud, it's a great local (not a chain) business giving local people what they generally want for 15 hours every day. I love it.

Stopped here for a drink as we only live around the corner. Nice patio.... drinks were extortionate and it was quite chavvy and loud... lots of people were literally screaming. Then a fight broke out that was fairly serious and the clientele were actually egging it on before the drunk guy drove home. Can’t help but think this might happen regularly due to the people that frequent it. Not for me.

My husband and I ate at The Lot last night with four good friends. The food was good and the staff lovely but........there were far to few staff for a full and bustling restaurant. They were completely rushed off their feet. We had to wait to place our food order and then wait an hour between our starters being cleared and the arrival of our main courses. When I commented on this I was told that they only had a small kitchen......yes.....seriously! It was also incredibly noisy; for most of the evening it was only possible to have a shouted conversation with the person sitting right next to me. I have had lunch and breakfast many times here but it was the first, and it will be the last, time we eat at The Lot on a Saturday night.

We've eaten at Lot for breakfast on a few other occasions and have always found the service friendly and welcoming, albeit a little on the slower side. However, today we actually waited close to an hour, with nothing arriving at the table bar the two cappuccinos we ordered. When the food finally arrived it was a little disappointing, our daughter's meal warm rather than hot. I wanted to ask for it to be heated, but by this time she was so hungry, she didn't want to part with the plate.

We've been regular customers since it first opened but there's always been a problem with noise in the eveningp especially at weekends.....however the food is good, a varied menu with a Specials Board, and always very well presented. Service is excellent. Recently the decibel level has increased as people tend to shout to make themselves heard so all in all not an atmosphere for a casual dinner chatting with friends. Perhaps we need to return to midweek visits. Such a shame as there are few restaurants of this calibre locally.

Although it was a Monday evening, the atmosphere was buzzy and friendly and Theo behind the bar was brilliant (as always is Rui who pops in from the restaurant next door). As a local place for over 25's (as I am) to enjoy a few drinks in the evening with friends, where you know you're going to have a good time and be looked after by attentive and professional staff, I couldn't be happier.

The place was quite busy, took a very long time to order drinks. I ordered the seafood salad, which i asked for separate sauce, which came with the sauce all over it and ruined it for me as there was so much. The rest of the food looked good though.

Having visited last month for a light lunch we decided to return early enough in the day to try out their breakfast/brunch. The service is excellent - we had two small children with us and nothing was too much trouble for the staff who were all brilliant with the children; bringing smaller cutlery and chatting to them. I enjoyed the best poached eggs ever and struggled to finish my breakfast as the servings are very generous. There is a good menu choice & soya coffee an option, which pleased my daughter. I'd return here for breakfast whenever possible if I was in the area. So having tried breakfast & lunch I just need to return for an evening visit, when I hear the bar is very lively.

When food arrived we were all very pleased with our choices . I had salad with bacon, sweet potatoes, pine nuts and spinach , wonderful tasting and plentiful. Again we weren't bothered so we had a lovely long catch up, when we asked for the bill pleasantly surprised at the cost, very reasonable for good quality food.

We are totally totally addicted to lot for breakfast. Back when we were childless and first moved to shenfield we used to come to lot for dinner at least once a week. It was 5 star back in those days with quim (now of manuels) running the place. But it declined with food quality when he left. But we have re discovered it with the breakfast.

As I said, the food is good but we have had this problem so many times before and I know I could go somewhere else and not come to this restaurant but all the management needs to do is not cram so many people into the restaurant and give the staff in the tiny kitchen a chance to keep up with the high demand put on them. The waiters were of course extremely busy and I did feel sorry for them as its not their fault and I could see several people close by to us who were getting very cross at the long wait also. Every time I go I hope that the service will improve. Its not too bad during the day but on a Saturday night the wait time is terrible, but if you're happy to wait a couple of hours before getting your dinner then you won't have a problem.

I come here quite often and I have to say despite the occasion it never disappoints! From a Sunday meal with family to a Thursday evening for after work drinks it really is an all rounder! Food is always on point...the many times I've been here the food has always been exceptional! The staff are friendly, accommodating and adds to whole experience! For anyone who is looking for a great night out, quality food and an atmosphere to match this is certainly the place to be!

Nine of us for a family Sunday lunch. Most of our party had the Roast Lamb and everybody enjoyed, but I had the prawn linguini and it was truly the best pasta dish I have ever had in my life. The flavours were intense and the background sauce was creamy and perfect, king prawns soft and plump.Yum, yum.... will be back as soon as possible.Kids were also catered for and they enjoyed their hand made pizzas. Seldom have I seen the whole family so content.

2 of us went in on a Saturday evening for a meal and a chat. The food was delicious and reasonably priced and the waiters was lovely. We were sat at a table in the centre of the room and the air conditioning unit which was right on us was blowing out such hot air I was praying for people to leave so that some fresh air came in. I asked the waiter if he could turn it down and he said he would try but I don't know if he did, it didn't get any more bearable. The restaurant is quite small and with so many people packed in there the noise was so loud it was difficult to talk to my friend. I would go back again but not on a Saturday evening.

I live in the area. Sometimes for a treat I go there for my study breaks. Food always good and the specials are always intresting choises of food from all over the world. I recommend it highly. Clean, awesome service and good food! When I bring my kids its great. They have an icecream area and the kids get to choose freely.

We come here for Sunday lunch and are never disappointed! The food is fresh and delicious and always more than plenty. The staff are accommodating and very friendly. One waiter in particular called Chin goes above and beyond!He's always happy and nothing is too much trouble. We've had a lot of Sunday roasts and this place is by far the best in the area !

A really cool bar just a short walk from Sheffield station. Really buzzy and busy, even at 16.30 tonight. Good atmosphere, nice staff and free popcorn. Will definitely go again.

I visited this Lot a few weeks ago with my friends and really enjoyed it. The atmosphere was great and the food and drinks were even better. I enjoyed the friendly, young and vibrant feel and would recommend to anyone for a place to catch up with friends. The outdoor area is perfect for a sunny day watching the world go by and the inside is modern with tv screens for further entertainment. All round perfect location and bite to eat, definitely would like to try this venue on a weekend evening out.

I love coming here with friends and family. Such a nice vibe for a nice lunch catch up. I always order the sweet potato fries as they are the best I've ever tasted. The Cajun chicken is great and so is the new BBQ pulled pork wrap that is currently on. Staff are quick and friendly and always happy to help. Love this place.

My father and I visited Lot for lunch I a sunny day. We booked via the website but the restaurant didn't seem to have the booking. Luckily they had a table outside anyway My dad had the prawn and avocado salad I had the prawn wrap with sweet potato fries. Both were delicious. It was busy in the restaurant and service was a little slow but overall this did not detract from our enjoyment.

Lot75 is a south Essex wine bar that is always a good fun place to be. I had many a great night in there and whenever i'm in the area I always pop in to see some old faces.

Easy to book for a Friday night. Being Brentwood born and bred I'm a Toby Carvery man where you get a massive meal for good price. Yet again these type of places charge sky high prices for little food which was tasty having the lamb but food not in quantity. Having nearly a £100 bill I was still hungry. A bottle of prosseco for £25 which can be bought for £6.50 from tesco was extortionate. Worth a visit tho.

Not eaten there for a main meal (or joined the hoards of people outside for a Friday early evening drink), but a great place to go for a late breakfast or just a coffee and catch up. Lovely atmosphere. Pleasant staff.
