The Bath House Public House in Tendring

Went for first time today. Had the roast beef dinner but unfortunately couldn't eat the meat as it was so tough. Could hardly cut let alone eat it. Yorkshire also tough. My partner had same problem. Also we had to share a small portion of veg. Should have realised when we arrived that we were not going to have a good experience as at 1.30pm there was no one else in the restaurant and it was a Sunday. Needless to say will not go again.

Didn't eat here just had a drink. The place could do with updating

Fantastic place staff welcoming would recommend to anyone who comes to Walton on the naze to visit here will come back again

Chips over cooked. Rating only 3 out of 5. Swearing at the bar.

This was our second visit, we had lunch here just over a year ago and it was excellent….however we cannot say the same about our visit today. The menu seems to have shrunk….one of the main dishes…the fish was off. Had a very average burger and scampi. I am sorry to say the standard as gone down . Also no tea or coffee! For the money pretty poor….

Update.... this place as been taken over . It's expensive now .

The staff and drinks were good but that is as far as it goes. We were both very hungry otherwise we would not have eaten there. I ordered macaroni cheese. It was macaroni covered in cheese. No sauce just cheese. My husband had veggie lasagna. This turned up and was dry and small. My husband liked the garlic bread and salad. That was it. Both meals were small and barely edible. Shame as the staff were cheerful and the place was right by the sea.

Sadly our visit did not match up to our visit last year. Food was over cooked and luke warm.

The Bath House is a quintessential British pub in Walton on the Naze. Its close proximity to the beach and pier offers lunch and dinner menus to holiday makers and local residents. Enjoy your meal indoors, or as I did al fresco and take in the British seaside atmosphere.

Lovely food, brilliant service.

Pub right on the sea front, serves hot and cold food. Good food at a reasonable price.

Had a good meal. And the Footie two nights 😁😁🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻

Lovely Sunday dinner. Friendly staff and good service. I wrote this review a few years ago. Nothing has changed. Roast potatoes even better. Highly recommend 👌

First time here. Food was nice, atmosphere was good and the service very good. Toilets and seating outside for food and drinks.

we have been going to the bathhouse for years, the Sunday lunch was always amazing and when my son ask where I wanted to go for Fathers day there was no contest The place has been taken over by new owners and they seem to have either cut costs as the experience was totally different to all the other times we have visited the beef was very below par and so far from how it used to be, my wife and sons meals were ok but seem to be a hell of lot less on the plate for still the same price as before, I know things have gone up but we visited there on mothers day and that was fine they have lost another customer as I will not be returning again

The location is just stunning , the host is so lovely and accommodating. We always come here when we visit here when we come to Walton on the Naze .. and the food is great would highly recommend

After all the good reviews for The Bath house I tried it yesterday. Oh my god it was the worst meal I’ve ever had. I had the roast beef. To be fair the 2 tiny slices of beef weren’t bad. The Yorkshire was so overcooked it turned to dust when I cut it. The potatoes were soggy and tasted like they’d been sat a good while. The vegetables, in a separate bowl, were boiled to death and were swimming in water. My daughter had a cremated chicken burger with crumbling bacon that was so overcooked. The cheese had disintegrated. The onion rings batter tasted of fish so I’m guessing they use the same oil. When asked by the server if all was ok we said no and showed her. Her response was ‘but the chicken nuggets are so good’ (that my granddaughter had) The chips were also ok apparently. There was one salt grinder that was being passed around the tables. There were 2 bottles of mayonnaise with a teaspoon in each and they had no more to refill. Yes we should’ve handed it back and not paid but we ate what we could and left. Never again!

What a find... Didn't expect much as not the most welcoming looking place. The staff were absolutely fantastic, so welcoming and made a fuss of the dog. Food was very good, quality ingredients and reasonably priced. Will definitely be our go to place on our next visit to Walton.

Called in lunchtime ordered 3 coffees waited 20 minutes to arrive only 1 person serving. Terrible customer service will not call again. Lady serving did admit only one working. Owners should ensure have sufficient staff on duty.

We went for steak night( 12 people) , I have had steaks in many establishments but the 2 steak dinners with a bottle of wine was an absolute bargain . The steaks were cooked to perfection and is the best steak I have ever had despite spending vastly more for allegedly superior cuts elsewhere. I live 1H30m from this pub and would consider driving this far just for their steak night.

We had the roast beef and roast lamb for Sunday lunch today. Best pub roast, served by friendly, hardworking bar staff. Well done to the chef and thank you ladies for a very enjoyable experience. Look forward to going back 😊

This place looks a little tired from the outside but is nice on the inside. The staff were pleasant and the food was lovely. I would recommend for a bite to eat.

This was my first visit to The Bath House despite living fairly locally to Walton. Having read the reviews and listening to word of mouth I decided to give it a go. In a nutshell the Sunday roast the three of us had was simply sublime. The roast potatoes were crispy and fluffy. Portion sizes generous. Meat cooked to perfection. Beef was tender as was the pork and the cracking was done beautifully. The interior of this establishment is reminiscent of a man’s working pub but it’s relatively easy to oversee this when observing everybody having such a nice time. The staff were attentive and welcoming and as it was Mother’s Day I was offered a free glass of Prosecco which was an added bonus. I would definitely return as in my opinion. The Sunday roast is far superior than other establishments locally including the fine dining experiences in nearby local towns. Thankyou and well done to The Bath House x

First visit, this place has massive potential. Landlady bubbly, kind and a friendly face...we will go back and try the food at some point which looks amazing, the pub deserves to be more busier, get yourselves down there....

Highly recommend Freshly cooked food

Best Sunday roast, service and relaxed atmosphere. Couldn’t recommend more.

The food and service here was excellent, seems like a locals pub but very welcoming to tourists. There was a few of us and a dog but they had a table set up for us and everyone really enjoyed their meal. The deal of 2 steaks or fish and chips and a bottle of wine was a bargain! Would definitely go back!

Excellent Steak Night last night. 2 really tasty tender steaks all the trimmings and bottle of wine £34.99. Great Value for money.

Very pleasant eatery, staff very pleasant.

Visited here at the tail end of the summer season when the children went back to school. The lady serving was very helpful and obliging so we were very optimistic....then a group of colourful locals dropped in, effin' and jeffin' and very loud. Sadly it was all downhill from there, the spare ribs were just that, all rib and precious little meat, an unpleasant taste and "falling off the bone" would have been impossible. The chips were fine so I ate those and we made our escape. It could have been an off night as I see lots of goods reviews on Google but unfortunately ours was a very poor experience.

First time in a long time I decided not to eat in a place due to concerns about hygiene.

Always friendly, food generous , to much, even small dinner, large. Staff 5 star. Go every Sunday for lunch.

Very good service would go there again

We went in for a drink and stayed for the football the atmosphere is fantastic and the staff are very friendly and good at their job all in all a great experience

1st class service from all bar staff and waitresses. Landlady accomodated us for a quick sunday lunch whilst visiting Walton and they did not disappoint. Really welcoming. I had steak pie and daughter had something with lashings of gravy 🤣 Absolitely gorgeous mash - from a Yorkshire lass that's saying summat haha! Both had lovely puddings. Mine was apple crumble but ate before realising I hadn't got a picture 🤣 All home made 💜 top marks to chefs 👏 Served everything exactly as daughter needed. Thank you for listening waitresses and chefs 💜 They turned lots away whilst there so definitely book in advance. Locals really welcoming to us too- had a chat and told me to try belly pork next time. They sell out of sunday dinners but our choices off menu were spot on. Thanks all of you!

My family has been visiting this pub for the past 20 years or so, the staff are friendly and chatty, they sell a good range of beverages hot and cold. I do not think we have ever eaten here though, so I can not comment on the food, but when I have seen other people's food come out to them, it does look well presented, not really sure why we have never tried it, maybe on our next visit.

Nice pub, great location and beer garden

Food was amazing, staff was so friendly and welcoming. Just an overall great experience 💜

Enjoyed the food and service was great

Great pub on the sea front. Friendly attentive staff, good range of drinks, and good food. Lots of live entertainment!

Great Guinness and nice friendly staff. Dog friendly, We sat in the beer garden watching the kite surfer's. I will definitely be going back next time I visit the beach

Sat in the sun and had half a lager

went here today with a friend of mine, we had never been to Walton-on the naze before and we decided to go for a roast it was an amazing experience. amazing service, amazing roast dinner and very friendly staff, not to forget to mention very good prices as well. very impressed with the cleanliness of the pub and the beer very nice. i will defiantly attend this pub again. thankyou for making my first experience to Walton-On-The-naze an unforgettable one. please thank the chiefs for the food. had a very lovely table right by the window looking out at the sea. couldn't have asked for a better meal.

The best Sunday roast I have ever eaten A+ Only negative, poor toilets...

A little breezy, but our family had a gorgeous lunch in the sunshine, with so much choice of dishes. Very reasonable prices for the quality of food. A+

Had Sunday lunch. So yummy. Will be back in a few weeks. Compliments to the chef. The leeks in cheese sauce were divine

A great Sunday lunch at a reasonable lrice

Can sit with friends for drinks inside or outside, very pleasant staff good location.

Lovely friendly pub on sea front. Food lovely too and not expensive.

Lovely dog friendly pub with great beer 🍻 🍻 🍻

Very welcoming. Great service, great beer 🍺.Family and dog friendly and great sea views

Loved the ambiance, good sea views. Warm staff, good grub and a decent semi-decent pool table.

Lush ploughman's.....more than enough on my plate. Good price. Sunny so sat outside too.....

Amazing and friendly staff and the food was soooo good. Can't wait to return again :)

We where told by a friend that the bath house does a good Sunday dinner so we thought we would try it out, they do a small, medium, or large dinner. So we had 2 medium beef, one medium lamb, and one small roast pork, all where fantastic, I can honestly say it was one of the best pub roast dinners we have had in a long time, the staff where well organised and very attentive and we will be back.

Not one of the best pubs I've frequented. A choice of 2 beers. Neither of which is worth mentioning. It's OK for a seafront Summer pint, but not too welcoming in the Winter.

A really great pub with excellent food & drinks at amazing prices. With great customer service

very nice.& lovely friendly bar staff too 10/10

Great food great people great weather, the best beach & west ham fans xx

very lovely and friendly staff. Love their fish and chips! Fresh, delicious, nice view, great service

Freindly staff great food will definitely be going back

Lovely pub that shows the footie

The food was great but the place needs some TLC, which it may get as the business is being sold. We had the chicken burger, steak burger and vegetables lasagna, all were delicious. The chicken burger was massive, felt like half a chicken. Sorry no photos. They sometimes have outdoor shows with bands playing on the rooftop. *If I have to point out one negative, is that we asked for some spare vegetables for our little ones and was told that was not possible, everything they had was for the food they served. Compared to the Dog & Pheasant on Mersea Island which did go above and beyond, they are nowhere near. Whoever takes over the business, a word of advice, try and create a proper kids menu. Whilst I was there I saw a lot of toddlers and children with parents.

We went back here for Sunday lunch after a long while due to covid and other things. We remembered the Sunday lunches always being of a high standard and reasonably priced. And I have to say I think the quality of the food has improved. Fantastic Sunday lunch piping hot and cooked to a high standard. Despite it being very busy (we prebooked) we were served drinks promptly and the food arrived within 15 minutes. The staff were also very attentive. We are definitely going back. We parked up at Frinton and walked along the promenade to Walton which was also a lovely experience.

Steak night Monday. Great value steak with red wine. Huge portions. Good vegetarian option which is always good for a blood lover married to a vegetarian. Couldn't fault it .

1st time eating in here. Was pleased with service and food. Good size portions. Will go back again when I'm in Walton

Very good food friendly staff and good service

Myself and my family had a wonderful dinner here on Wednesday whilst on holiday, the food was brilliant and there was a lovely atmosphere suitable for young children and it was very dog friendly! We will be back this week!!

Our first visit to this fab pub today. Great staff (friendly + accomodating) & amazing food (freshly cooked + very generous), plus we got to sit right by the TV to watch the footie! Can totally recommend + great food options for veggies. We will be back.👌 😋 🙌

WOW, a little gem of a pub. The food was hot, plentiful and delicious! The staff are all happy, inviting and courteous. Definitely a place to visit if you are in the town!

Great Sunday roast an Steak night is well worth the only, football season is great at the pub

Shocked at so much foul language is used by customers Found out that one of them actually works behind the bar!! Not a nice place to visit in the evening 😕

Lovely food and excellent friendly service as always

Great food and nice selection of gins

Fish an chips so fresh👍and the waiter so helpful,thanks Bath house,will be back in September 🤞

Great service friendly atmosphere.back tonight for some supper

I didn't get what I needed but staff and people so friendly.

Nice location, really nice food and lovely staff, popular place to go for food and drink!

A pleasant enough pub/restaurant with plenty of tables inside and out. Service very slow on the day we visited but the freshly cooked fish and chips lunch for three of us was great when it finally arrived.

Was lucky enough to get a table on what looked like a busy Sunday service. The food was really good and the staff and locals were friendly. It may not look the best from outside, but don't let that fool you as it's well worth a visit. I had a chicken burger and it was just amazing! Really crispy chicken tenders, as the "burger", with fresh salad and huge onion rings. My only dissatisfaction were the oven chips served with it. I do regret not having the Sunday lunch as that looked absolutely amazing, I'm not surprised it was so busy on a Sunday afternoon.

Lovely place. And really nice staff!

Staff friendly and polite, food was good, overall would go back if we was up that way again.

Visited for a lunch time meal with my young family, the value for money, food and service were all excellent. My son had probably the best chicken nuggets he's ever had - the cod and chips was lovely too and good portion sizes. Highly recommend!

Traditional pub with great staff and beers, didn't eat but menu looked interesting. Right on the seafront but a little away from the town centre

I was really impressed! First visit and I've always felt that it looked a bit run down but no, great food, friendly but professional staff and good prices

Found this place on the seafront at Walton on the naze excellent hom cooked Sunday lunch very reasonably priced

Lovely food and excellent friendly service

Amazing food and staff is very welcoming. We will definitely go there again

We had heard locally that the bath house was a good place to eat I have not been there in many years and personally found it not very inviting. We went on a Monday night my mum and I and we're rather shocked at the very small menu. We'd gone on their steak night. The alternative menu was very small and not a lot of options but I thought this would be the case. But overall we had a burger chips and onion rings and it was ok. I would probably go here for a drink but not for the food unless there are better options

Great service, catered for a party of 17 no problem. Food was good and plentiful we will most definitely be back.

4 of us had Sunday roast dinner which was fantastic, I had the medium sized Pork that was lovely, I will definately be back, we had a dessert each which was expertly presented, this pub obviously has a great chef and a good team all round and the pub was very friendly.

Used to drink in here when I visited Walton in my younger days and it was always the place to be. Only popped in for a beer but it was still very busy so seems nothing has changed

Came today with family, we had fish and chips, large is huge , mum and aunt had ploughman’s. Really great food at a good price right on the seafront. Will definitely return.

Family friendly pub with great atmosphere

Fab afternoon on 12th March. Food was amazing and staff really helpful. Cant wait to re visit soon

Good venue for the family and friends of the family

Good Stella lovely chips Great view of the sea
