Mac's Bar and Cafe in Basildon

Went for a morning breakfast with the family and my youngest ordered beans on toast; however, they had ran out of beans and just gave him toast! Lazy staff didn't even butter it! Thanks now I have a crying 6 year old! However, I had a full English and changed my beans for extra mushrooms full recommend! Made better by the stripper who came to collect her money wearing an inappropriate uniform love this place!

great bar we all. Had a great night and very friendly staff so if you looking for a good night please stop for a drink as its a great place very basic down to earth

Been to macs a few times for a drink on my lunch break and the staff are always friendly and polite it has had a refurb in recent months and they do paninis which was nice when I tried and the beer was nice too.a lovely tidy little place with nice comfortable leather sofas to relax on in my break.look forward to going back soon.

It's a truckers cafe, so don't expect much. The food is adequate if not over cooked and sometimes over priced. The drinks seem to be quite dull, almost as if they've been watered down. The cutlery has dirty marks and the glasses had bits of egg on the rim, the toilets seem as if they have been stuck in the 1950's, and haven't been cleaned since then. The only thing that I appreciate about this place is the staff. I believe that the owners are husband and wife, the husband doesn't seem to do much and the wife is always rushed off her feet. Despite that, they were polite and kind and gave me a warm welcome. If you go here for a meal, don't expect much, but do stay open minded.

The service was ok. The price was a bit expensive for a full english but it looks like either the grill wasn't cleaning in between cooking meals or my food was burnt. I'm sorry to say there were black bits on my bacon and in my mushrooms and tomatoes?
