Milton Cafe in Southend-on-Sea

We have been using the Milton Cafe for around 24 years I guess. Food is always fantastic and recently the lasagne was so good I scrapped every little bit from the plate. Bridget And Joe are such genuine lovely people. The only hard decision is pasta or English breakfast

Lovely small little cafe, with exceptional food.

Attentive staff. I came as part of a group yesterday and overall we were happy. The lasagne was well cooked. Good meal for £8 which kept me going. Cheese was a little chewy but was edible.

Wonderful pizza and very friendly staff

If you would like an authentic italian pasta pizza or a full english this is the place to go

Popped in here about 11.30am for breakfast and had Cala Brese and garlic bread - no regrets 😋 it was so tasty, restaurant quality. Mr had a fry up and was not dissapointed. Do not be fooled by the outdated decor and drab frontage this little cafe is clean and tidy and staffed by lovely people.

My old friend still there after all of these years very nice.

Lovely people and amazing food. Always very friendly owners. I recommended the cafe to everyone locally I know. They couldn’t do any better

Amazing food definitely worth a visit 👌

Lovely lady that served me, very polite and attentive. Will go back. Thanks.

Really really good pasta. Must try and good value. Just a morning and early afternoon place. :) mmm

For the bacon sandwich that reminded me of my mums. Been back twice. Bacon thick and tasty.

Lovely friendly owners and obviously attentive- they remembered my only previous visit from over 6 months previously! Cosy and clean. Great food and excellent value. Home made pizza to die for! Bit of a hidden gem this one due to location. Highly recommended.

Excellent breakfast and nice people

Good basic fare at basic prices!

The best bowl of pasta and the warmest welcome for miles around.

Best pizzas in Southend, Garlic bread second to none. Always a happy and warm welcome from Joe and Bridget.

Caffe' troppo amaro . No parsley for the dishes . Chicken Indiana very nice !!

Very good food, nice family run business, friendly and welcoming definitely 5 stars if not more

amazing, fresh calleloni ! tuna pizza! yum!x

Had a nice breakfast this morning. Good food good service.

Does the best pasta bolognese in the world. Scotland is missing a place like this

Lovely pleace to be, suituated around residential area which made it more ideal.

Small cafe with an excellent Italian biased menu. Food is cooked on the premises, and is of superb quality.

Lovely welcoming owners. Food delicious.

Best food around ask for a milkshake

Excellent food, authentic and fresh and to top it all off great value for money with extremely generous portions! Give the home made chilli oil a try on a fresh plate of pasta......the way Italian food should be!!!

It speaks volumes when actual Italians eat in this cafe. The place is always rammed and when you sit down to eat you can see why. The chef is Italian and very skilled

They say never trust a skinny chef !, Well Giuseppe is fat (fat Joe) and he cooks such good pizzas I come in here 3 times a week and eat, I love the food , all things are cooked to order, you can't go wrong with the mid day Italian lunch

Lovely Italian family owned business cheap home cooked food. Lovely place

Been coming to Jo and Bridgets for nearly 20 years now. We love it!

Calzoni absolutely wonderful. I enjoyed this dish. Great for vegetarians with out ham or chicken. Ask for meat if you want it. At £6.50 one of the more expensive items, but well worth it. Freshly cooked from Farmed Fresh Ingredients.
