Sat in the bar area which is dog friendly - staff were very friendly and offered a bowl of water and treats for our dog. I had the steak and ale pie the first evening with chunky chips and veg. It was so nice the next evening I was joined by my partner and we had food again - she had pan fried chicken and I had lasagne. Everything came out hot, was well cooked and very tasty! We had pudding on the 2nd night too. Also they have Heineken zero on draught - which was excellent (only had it in bottles before).

I highly recommend the Halfway House. From the moment I booked it for my 70th birthday meal with family and friends the help and support I received from all the staff was exceptional. The lovely restaurant manager, Deanne was brilliant with advice and, on the day made everything go smoothly. All my family and friends agreed the food was exceptional and the service from the staff who worked tirelessly to provide food and drinks was amazing. I can't praise this venue enough and will definately be back for my next get together. I also want to thank the chef who worked magic on my cake which arrived damaged.

I was staying next door at the Travelodge so the Halfway was the only restaurant nearby. I wanted something simple so I had sausage and mash. I don't know how the sausages were cooked but the skins were very tough, it wasn't much fun eating them. The gravy was described as 'onion gravy'. It was thick and dark brown and there was probably more than I needed, there were onions. However it was nothing like any real onion gravy I've ever had, the large pale pieces of onion might have been just dumped in there and allowed to cook a bit. The point of onion gravy is to caramelise the onions, preferably red onions, so the gravy takes on the sweet caramelised flavour. This gravy was just Bisto as far as I could see. The mashed potato was fine, but I had no wish to double or quits with a pudding so I went back to the hotel for a cup of tea and chocolate bar from the vending machine, at least I got what I expected.

Well it’s been a few years since we ventured to try the Halfway House at Brentwood and back then it wasn’t a place I thought I would return until today. My fully electric car died on me so as I waited I thought I would venture into the Halfway House once more. I’m glad my car failed! Excellent staff (always a good sign) I had the humble steak and ale pie and it was one of the best I have had in a very long time. Turn into The Halffway House off the A127 and enjoy good English food served with a smile.

Great food mostly, only the dessert was falsely advertised on specials menu as pear and almond tart with cream - the “cream” was some godawful substitute called Kerrymaid, tastes like liquid plastic - but they didn’t understand the difference when I asked. Pity I had to actually swallow some to find out.

I know in these trying times it’s wrong to criticise.. but I’m sorry I’m going to. Shown to a table and then forgot about. When I did get served I had the most dreadful pint of ipa I’ve ever had. Totally flat and lifeless it was so bad I gave it the flowers and walked away. £4.50 for something that tasted like they’d washed the plates in it. I was asked if I’d like a menu, which thankfully never arrived.

Popped in for lunch with the family at the weekend - was very busy as the sun was out. We were greeted at the front entrance and taken to our table out in the garden it was a little too hot for my youngest son so a lovely member of staff moved us onto the decking area with some shade. Food was amazing can’t wait to return next weekend!

No complaints on the food but the staff are so miserable and rude in our experience, after we had paid the bill and took our time to finish our drinks the manager woman asked how much longer were we going to be because we were taking up a space in the car park (which was pretty much empty) and informed us that we were pushing our luck, which is a strange attitude - you would think pubs and bars would be doing their best post lockdown but definitely not here.

This was my first visit despite living nearby for a number of years. Obviously COVID was amongst us and that must be taken into account. I phoned ahead to book a table and on arrival myself and my partner were offered two tables to choose from. There were a few occupied tables in the room. I believe this was normally the bar area and not the actual restaurant. It did lack some atmosphere but was set up well to deal with the pandemic. Our server was cheerful and helpful offering the menu and the specials menu too. My partner chose sausage and mash along with me. It was good and filling. Overall I will return if only to sample the main restaurant.

Have been here several times in the past but met some friends here last week for a post lock-down lunch. I must say that the HWH team have done a fantastic job in preparing the bar / restaurant for covid measures. We sat in the garden which is immaculate - the HWH team have spent a lot of time here during lock-down painting and refurbing the whole garden area and it looks great! The quality and standard of food and service from Shaun, Sue, Courtney was excellent as always. Thank you HWH team, see you again soon.

I visited The Halfway House today with my family. We were met at main entrance by a very friendly member of staff who asked us to use handsanitiser before seeing us to our table. All staff wore the required PPE. Menu choices were excellent and our food was delicious and of a very high standard. My daughter is vegan and the options were excellent - the vegetable curry was a knockout she said! I ordered fish cakes, and apple crumble for dessert. Highly recommend. Had the weather been better we would have had lunch in the gorgeous garden. Lots of signs to direct guests to Toilets and Enter and Exits. The HH team are exceptional. So looking forward to returning.

Website stated that it opened at 11:00am, in fact, it was midday. However, we were in the Travelodge next door so it wasn’t a problem. My friend and I spent most of the afternoon in the bar area. We had a few beers, of which the choice was very good. Later, we had a meal each which was great. I had the pork belly with dauphinois potatoes and my friend had the fish and chips. Both meals were of a good standard and very tasty. The staff were very attentive and made our boozy afternoon a very enjoyable one. Jo (one of the bar staff), made us feel very welcome. Highly recommend A+++

I visited last Saturday with friends from Southend on the way back from France, our visit for food and some drinks was sadly spoilt when I read the receipt this morning to find out that we were over-charged for some drinks that we did not have during our visit.

This is such a little gem of a wedding venue. The team (4th oct) were so friendly and really set the tone for a great day. From remembering our names and likes/dislikes, accommodating requests to recommending drinks they really went above and beyond. Kaz's gin cocktails were so good!

We haven’t been to this pub/restaurant for years. The restaurant is separated from the pub with its own bar. Went as a party of 10 and not one of us had any complaints with the food, the service or surroundings. Kudos to the chef - all food was excellent and arrived hot. Me and my brother in law had the lamb with potato rosti and sweet potato which was delicious. My mother in law and sister had the Sunday roast (Pork/Turkey and all trimmings) my husband enjoyed home made pie, chips and gravy whilst the kids had burgers, ribs & wings combo and Caesar salad. Starters and pudding were also spot on - the apple crumble had an oat topping which was delicious. Staff were really friendly, chilled atmosphere, can imagine the garden would be nice to sit in the summer. We will definitely go back again.

Been visiting the HWH now for over 20 years, love the car meets especially and the bar staff have always been great! However!!! Friday 31st May was simply shocking! I stood at the bar for 10 minutes (note there were no other people being served), I was ignored by 2 staff and the 3rd jut continued her jolly with the drunkards at the end of the bar. When I was finally acknowledged I asked for a coffee and was told the machine had just been cleaned (8:55pm), I asked for a tea instead and was told they can’t do that either, add to that that the restaurant was already closed (albeit only 5 mins early) and it pretty much stopped me from having anything there, so off I went. You can wave goodbye to this customer of 20 years! There’s plenty better places that deserve my custom

We just recently has a christening for my daughter in a church nearby the half way house. We asked the halfway house if they could do us a buffet for ten people in a section of the pub as we didn't really want to hire a venue. They gave us a a seated section next to the bar and the buffet that came out was massive we actually took some home despite having over 20 people there! The food was really delicious and the bar staff served the party quicky.

I went with family to the Half Way house for a lunchtime meal. The food, as usual, was delicious. I had the beef pie but I have to say a couple of people had the Cottage Pie which apparently was lovely. We had deserts, and I had the apple crumble which was first class. The staff are always fantastic, and Sue is just wonderful. We have always had a very warm welcome from this pub, I love it!

Visited The Halfway House earlier this week. We arrived there just before lunch and having ordered first in our group, I was one of the last to receive my main meal when my colleagues were either finished with their mains or close to.

Located in the middle of the A127 this pub looks simply like a quick stop off however there is much more to this, food is very nice and the prices are very reasonable I would recommend going for an evening meal here.

First time at this lovely Inn. Freezing cold day, so roaring fire and lovely surroundings immediately made us feel welcome. They even made a special effort to change our table to one nearer the fire - much appreciated. Food delicious, house wine most enjoyable, prices very reasonable. Would definitely visit again.

Four of us had lunch today, with a variety of starters, steak pies and lasagne mains and apple crumbles were all excellent. Helpings were exceptional, staff excellent and helpful, prices, in my opinion, are reasonable, altogether a good experience that will be repeated very soon, I hope.

Lovely pub. First time at the weekend for Sunday lunch family of 4 adults and 3 kids. Staff super friendly (thank you Harry and co for taking such good care of us). Beautifully refurbed with old and new meeting nicely. We’ll be coming back. Food was delicious and portion sizes great. This is how service should be. Still not hungry!!
