Best Sunday roast for my family. They do kids roast and its big portions. My little one has lamb roast and she finished it all. When kids enjoy the food we enjoy it double. Looking forward to our next visit next sunday.

We booked a suprise party for my dads birthday and all we can say is perfect. We hired all the restaurat and everyone enjoyed the food and the service. Everyone said that was the best night out. Highly recommended to everyone.

We were driving to Maldon and looking for a good Sunday roast on google. We chose this one from the good reviews. I have to say that the location isn’t the best, but our meals were superb! One of the best roasts ever -succulent meat, fresh veg, homemade yorkshires and we finished with apple crumbles. Lovely friendly service - we would love to go back.

Sunday Lunch. First impressions; It's a little minimalist rather than homely, but a great welcome from very helpful staff. My wife's Roast Chicken dinner was superb. 'One of the best, with succulent chicken, fluffy roasts and 'just perfect' vegetables', she tells me. My Crab salad was O.K. I would have preferred both the crab and the dressing served separately, rather than all piled in with the salad leaves. The side order of Chips was excellent. Beautifully crisp and fluffy inside.2 soups - 2 mains - bottle of wine = £66 + tipI think they could encourage a greater take up of the wines if they included a greater range of budget wines. These days there are some really good wines which could be offered for less than £15.

Visited on a quiet Tuesday evening for a 3 course dinner purchased from Groupon.The restaurant is located in old pub. The tables are set out with plenty of room.The welcome was very friendly and unpretentious.The menu is small but I think we'll balanced and I felt that the food would be fresh.The four of us had different starters and all were very good. I had meat platter which was large.The mains were again delicious. I had the belly pork with a beautiful gravy.The whole meal had a personality cooked feel about it. The other diner's were making positive statements about their food.All in all a lovely evening and I will certainly be back.

We booked the groupon deal as never been here before. Well it was excellent. The atmosphere was so welcoming, fantastic staff and outstanding food. Will definitely recommend and will definitely return. The best meal out we have had in a long time.

We were staying locally and the New Pavilion was recommended by our hosts. Nice menu selection and not too much, so guaranteeing everything was made to order. The stand out dish for us was the "special" for the evening, which obviously needed a long slow cook, being pork belly. So many places get this so wrong, but this place nailed it!We understood the place was under new ownership and we wish them well. If the keep this standard up, they won't need any luck.

Been recommended from my neighbour and I took my family for a meal here. Everything great. Only wanted a light meal but I couldn’t resist without trying the Fritto Misto starter and Eaton Mess dessert plus the Ribeye steak cooked to perfection. The peppercorn sauce is to die for. Can’t wait to try the Sunday Roast & live music. Definitely recommend to everyone.

We booked the groupon deal as we weren’t sure what the restaurant would be like. All we can say is amazing food, excellent service and a well presented restaurant. Excellent value on a groupon and they also do a set meal lots of choice and probably one of the nicest meals out we have had for a while.

I went with a friend for dinner on Saturday night - there was a singer (the lovely Jessi Cooper) who sang a brilliant variety of songs and the restaurant was busy but not crammed, which created a cosy but lively atmosphere. Often when there is a live singer you cannot hear yourself speak but Jessi was just the right level of sound which meant we could still have a conversation. We were served by Laura who was attentive and friendly and she worked well with the bartender which ensured service was prompt. The bartender did not 'hide' behind the bar as some do and served several tables himself.I had the cod and chips for my main, my friend the tagliatelle and both were served steaming hot (which should be a given but isn't in some restaurants!) and were very tasty. For dessert I had the Eton mess and she the brownie - both were homemade and delicious. This is the first time we had eaten at the restaurant and I would definitely go back, perhaps on a date (if I can find a man!) as this is the perfect location for one. Busy enough that the atmosphere is lively but small enough that the experience feels intimate in a way that bigger restaurants do not.

This place was a groupon deal I brought for my husband and myself. I have to be honest it is the best one I have ever brought. The staff were friendly and made us feel welcome. We sat and had a drink at the bar before being shown to our table. The food was delicious and they offered and did a small cheese and crackers for him as he doesn’t eat puddings. I went to work the next day and told my friends to go

It's a shame that more people aren't aware how great the food and service are at this restaurant.Visited tonight and the food was wonderful... although a slightly limited menu in comparison to some restaurants I found that the choice was perfect and not overwhelming. Definitely quality over quantity and the service to match. Quietly competent without being overbearing.3 courses plus a drink for £25 and a really enjoyable evening. If you are looking for somewhere to eat locally please don't overlook this little gem.

We have passed the cafe/restaurant many times and decided that we would give it a try last night and are we glad that we did.Although it was quiet it still had a nice friendly atmosphere and the manager Ylli made us feel very welcome. The menu is quite basic but has something for everybody, it certainly isnt fine dining, however, the food was excellent and the presentation was an indication that they make an effort and the chef wants his food to looks its best on the plate. We would highly recommend this place as it is great valued, great food and has owners that really do care, they deserve the restaurant to be successful and to get the support of the local and wider community.

Me and my beautiful wife have just finished dinner here and I cannot believe this restaurant is not packed every day! Excellent value for money, the menu caters for all and the service was polite attentive and professional. I would recommend this restaurant for breakfast lunch and dinner. It has only been opened 7 months and deserves to carry on for as many years and more.

Visited this pub restaurant recently. The menu at first glance seems large however it's pretty much the same menu for all day. As a vegetarian I was disappointed to find apart from soup, cheese stuffed mushrooms was the option as a starter, and mushroom risotto was the main option. Baked camembert was also available. So if you like expensive cheese and mushrooms it's the place for you. Unfortunately not for me.

We thoroughly enjoyed our visit. We were greeted warmly and made to feel very welcome. We weren’t hurried and enjoyed a relaxed drink with the host before ordering. The meals we had were very good and it was obvious that fresh produce had been used.It might seem quite difficult to park here but there is parking behind the restaurant so don’t be put off. We would recommend a visit!

A while ago I was lucky enough to be invited along to this lovely restaurant, which has recently been taken under new management. On arrival, the building looks like a pub & is very large, however inside is a cosy little restaurant with an extra seating area to the rear - so definitely not what I was expecting (not a bad thing! I was pleasantly surprised). Onto the absolutely gorgeous food! Personally I thought the menu was quite limited, however sometimes I do prefer this as you can be a bit spoilt for choice. Regardless, there were plenty of dishes on the menu that I would pick. For our starters, my mum & I enjoyed the beef carpaccio (one of my absolute favourite dishes - so glad to see this on the menu as not a lot of places offer this) & the anti-pasti board which included your typical bread, balsamic vinegar, olives, sundried tomatoes, meats & cheese. Both starters were very tasty & generous in size. As mentioned before, I love beef carpaccio so this was a roaring success! For our mains we enjoyed a dish from the specials board which was a chicken & bacon linguine - this was lovely, albeit a little bit rich. Again, this was plentiful & generous in size. For my main, I enjoyed the cod which was served with spring onion mash & spinach in a tomato sauce - beautiful! The dish was nice & light & didn't leave me feeling stuffed. Both mains were more than enough so you could probably get away with not having a starter)... Which leads me on to dessert (of course we had 3 courses!!) We indulged in the lemon tart & eton mess - both desserts were lovely & light, & very fresh in flavour thanks to the fresh fruit. Everything we ate here was lovely, & was really well presented as you can see from the photos. This is not somewhere I would've visited as I'd never heard it of until recently - however I am glad to have found this restaurant! I've also heard they do a fantastic Sunday roast - watch this space! Thank you to the team @new_pavilion for having us & for looking after us, we look forward to seeing you again soon!

Found by accident for Saturday night family meal. Outstanding. New owner and nicely redecorated to traditional friendly standard. Limited menu which I prefer as it means in house cooked meal rather than extensive menu of frozen meals from wholesaler. Had scollops as starter, best i have had for a long time. Rest of the meal did not disappoint with very good in house wines. If in the area give it a try, we will be going back

This amazing gem of a restaurant never fails to deliver. We have become ardent regulars due to the high quality of the food and service. We have experienced breakfast and lunch on numerous occasions and it doesn't matter whether it is 8.30am or 2.00pm the quality remains outstanding.

Me and my boyfriend visit this restaurant frequently. We love the food, always amazing quality and flavours. The presentation of the plates is just what you want when eating out. We have also recommended to friends who have visited and have also taken my family there for a meal and everyone was as pleased as us with the whole meal. My partners favourites dish is the Herb Crusted Lamb and my favourite is the Cod Wrapped In Prosciutto Ham. Although every dish we have tried we have loved. The decor is lovely and the ambiance is perfect. The staff are very friendly and are always making sure you have everything you need. 100% recommend this lovely family run restaurant and will definitely be back again.

Visited The Queens Head last night with my fiancée to try their new carvery all you can eat roast dinner. The food was outstanding, when they say all you can eat they really mean it, and it includes meat unlike any other I’ve been too. The meat was cooked to perfection, the gammon was the best I’ve had and there was 4 meats to choose from. The chef was previously a butcher and knows how to cook and carve, it was so yummy. There was a good selection of potato’s, yorkies and veg, also all really yummy. The potatoes were crispy outside and fluffy inside and the gravy was a good thickness and also very tasty as it’s made from the meat juices. I was hesitant trying an all you can eat carvery, however this blew other roasts I have tried in Essex out the water. It was as good as an expensive roast that you would find in a bistro pub. My fiancée and I are making our way round local pubs trying their roast dinners and this flew straight to the top of our list! Also - the homemade icecream is outstanding and i’d urge that people try it. It’s really creamy and they have lots of options. Thank you for a lovely dinner!

Looked inviting from the outside so decided to give this establishment a try. Spotless interior , big menu with many tempting options. Our coffee was spot on , just how we like it "proper coffee." Wifey had bacon, brie and cranberry panini which she said was delicious. Myself chicken , bacon and pesto sandwich with granary bread. Thick slices of gorgeous bread with a well packed filling , it was very satisfying. Very good service and highly recommend.
