Came in for a family meal on Sunday and the atmosphere and food was amazing and the staff couldn’t have been more helpful and friendlier. I had a beef roast dinner, the meat was perfect and someone else on the table had a cheese and bacon burger and that looked just as good. We dealt with staff called Ell and James and they made the time in the pub the most relaxing and comfortable experience. We all couldn’t have asked for a better experience, will definitely be back for more family meals, was all so quick and effortless. Thankyou so much

I love this pub..... Sandmartin restaurant comes highly recommended for its exceptional value, with guests consistently lauding the quality and price of the food alongside the service, despite a few hiccups. The atmosphere is often described as friendly and welcoming, offering a fun vibe amplified by live music and its neat decoration. The cuisine receives praise for its delicious flavors and the restaurant's attention to dietary requirements, though some guests have pointed out occasional inconsistencies. Service at Sandmartin stands out, with staff members earning recognition for their accommodating and attentive approach, making the experience memorable for families, pet owners, and all patrons. Highly recommend, 5 stars 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Over the past 12–14 months, we’ve discovered Chafford’s hidden gem, and it’s become a regular part of our week. We’re now proud weekly visitors, and honestly, we can’t believe we didn’t try it sooner! The food is fantastic—great variety and amazing quality. The drink selection is just as impressive. But what truly makes this place special is the incredible team. They’re so welcoming, friendly, and create an atmosphere that’s second to none. Our son is always made to feel at home, and even our young dog gets a warm welcome. It’s a place that truly goes above and beyond. Thank you to the entire team for all your hard work—it doesn’t go unnoticed. Wishing you all a very happy new year!

Visited this pub recently and unfortunately, the experience was a bit of a letdown. Ordered the sirloin steak, which was disappointing—2/10 at best. The meat didn’t seem fresh and had an odd side smell, making it quite unappetising. On the other hand, the hunter’s chicken was alright, but nothing outstanding. The atmosphere was lively but overly loud, making it hard to relax or have a proper conversation. Wouldn’t rush back anytime soon.

As regular patron of The Sandmartin it saddens me that I have to post a negative review, it was only 2 days ago I posted a positive review for Megan's fantastic quiz night! Let me explain... Myself and friends have booked a table for the final of Euro 2024, this was booked in good faith with the bar staff and we were assured we were booked on the same table we had previously booked for the other games, table 17, which is under or adjacent to the main TV. Today whilst in the pub we asked the bar staff to confirm our booking, only to be told our booked table has been moved to the back of the pub, which has limited to no view of the screens on game night! When bar staff were questioned regarding this change, no straight answer could be provided, and management was no where to be seen! This is not the way you should treat regular customers that spend a fair amount of money in your establishment!

We go to the sandmartin every week , and by far the best night in there is karaoke night by HPE and the lovely James.

The Sandmartin is in the corner where I live and I have give one star because me and my partner recently went and we’ve thought was a good idea to give it a go and so we went inside and we were looking to have a sit outside in the garden because it was a lovely day, not even been served we were about to seat the owner asked us the “ID” completely understandable but personally I found it pretty much rude on my opinion not knowing if we were having alcool or not, also we are not so young and pretty loudly I said we were going to another pub and never come back again. There’s plenty of pub in Chafford and Grays that are better than this.

The food is always very tasty, good variety to choose from. Friendly staff. However, the worst chopsticks I have ever seen. They're not bamboo, they're cheap wood. When you separate the pair they're not straight and quite often have splinters! Spoke to manager, he's aware of the poor quality but keeps ordering and using same rubbish chopsticks. If not for chopsticks, I'd give this place full 5 stars.
