The Sandmartin in Thurrock

Absolutely amazing service. Food is great. Lee is such a fantastic bloke, made us very welcome and looked after. Couldn't do more.

Visited here with some friends for the weekly interactive quiz and had a really good time, got very competitive and had a lot of laughs doing it, special shoutout to quizmaster Megan!

Lovely food and calm atmosphere. Staff were polite and helpful and particularly like the Mexican options off the menu.

The sandmartin is a lovely pub and the staff are very welcoming ! We always have great food when we come in. Usually come in for quiz night and it's always a great laugh! Actually one the quiz once! It's free to play and you still get a prize! Not better place to be on a Thursday!

Came in for drinks with friends and the sandmartin is my local, couldn't recommend it more and the staff are brilliant!!

Lee and the team are always on hand to provide you with great service. The food is always delicious and you’re always made to feel welcome…even our dogs like visiting! Food/drink prices are reasonable, the themed nights are always fun and there’s a great community spirit about the pub. We love it there!

Fantastic pub, great for all the family Including dogs. Food is amazing, they do something everyday like quizzes and meet ups, they also have live music. It has the best atmosphere and staff are always helpful.

Family friendly pub with great service and atmosphere. The food is fantastic and the menu is constantly refreshed - try the burgers!

Came in for the bottomless brunch on Saturday and it was great! Very good value for money & Lee couldn't be more helpful!!

Came for dinner with my partner, great beer selection, food was spot on we both had the flatbread I had chicken she has halloumi, definitely will be back, red head guy was really friendly

We were celebrating our wedding anniversary. When we booked we said we like our prosecco extra cold , so when arrived we found it had been specially chilled and on ice. We like tapas, so the small plate menu was perfect. The food was excellent and the staff friendly ,especially Connor, who went out of his way to make our night out very special. Their Friday night bottle of prosecco deal for £9.99 is excellent.

My dog got to have their own roast. Such a lovely pub with a really friendly team. Big gin selection which kept my partner happy

Ah what a lovely and friendly pub! All the staff were so lovely and friendly and made me feel welcome. Especially Lee. Me and my boyfriend Dan ate dinner here also i had the fish & chips and dan had the chicken burger! Was so lovely. Has a lovely pub garden to and suitable for all ages! With loads of parking available to out front.

Great place with wonderful staff, got my order perfect and the food was amazing quality when I recieved it.

Friendly staff and very welcoming. Service excellent, from ordering to food being delivered to our table. Piping hot and very tasty. Will certainly visit again.

The Sunday roast was delicious. I opted for the duo of Turkey and Beef. It arrived quickly and was well presented and hot. I will return.

There aren’t many places we can go now we have a pup and we were celebrating a birthday. So we went for lunch. It was busy but the staff were very friendly and we got served super quick! My husband is vegan and there was quite a bit of choice (surprisingly) so he had no chicken katsu, I had the chicken pie(which was delicious) kids had burgers. Everyone was pleased which was a first😂😂😂😂😂 A few people had dogs which was nice for mine too! The food was great, good value and the atmosphere was lovely too.We will be back! BTW my daughter said the halloumi fries were best she had!

Spent a lovely afternoon here. Such a relaxed friendly atmosphere, the staff are more than helpful and welcoming. We had the roast which was lovely, good portion size too. Lovw that we are local so will be popping in often.

This is a fantastic place for enjoying a meal and drink with family and friends. Food is great Lee and all the staff are very welcoming ….

Brilliant night on a Thursday for Aaron’s quiz night he’s a really good laugh, definitely be going back when working that way again. Love the scousers 💙

We all had beef roast dinner and none of us could cut and chew the beef. Told them and didn't even get an apology!!! The carrots were hard and cold and the broccoli very stringy

Me and my mates come every Thursday without miss, Aaron is honestly the best pub quiz. We always have such a laugh and can’t recommend it enough! Highly recommended!

FANTASTIC!!!!!! I have been going there for years and not once has it ever been a bad experience. Came for dinner with my Mum and Dad and the service was amazing and would definitely return. Would recommend to anyone but mostly for a Sunday dinner...

Thanks to Lee, a brilliant night, had a great evening, we all totally enjoyed ourselves - Lydia and Friends

This pub by far has some of the nicest staff in there. I went with a few friends and didn’t know what to expect as I had never been before. Lee, Kelly and Michael are the politest bar staff I have witnessed in a pub....

Recently popped in with some friends for the first time since the new management took over and it is undoubtedly a massive improvement, to the point where I'd happily say this is the best pub in Essex! The service from Michael was second to none...

So, pub is fine but the menu is generic for the chain so, not all items are available but. You only find that out when you order. Food hit-and-miss. Vacjgriund music is hard-rock and some thrash. Not not my thing, especially for Sunday lunch with...

Visited The Sandmartin for a mid week evening meal, lovely family pub, great food, nice atmosphere. Really enjoyed the 3 plates starter.
