The Treacle Mine in Thurrock

Excellent staff and excellent service

Fantastic pub! We came for the pub quiz with the family, we were welcomed and the staff were so friendly with us. The food was great, and reasonably priced and a great pub quiz! One of my favourite local pubs. Can’t recommend enough.

Came for the pub quiz on a Wednesdays, and we had a brilliant time. Food was lovely, staff were brilliant and were now regular attendees! Highly recommend for a midweek evening out!

Excellent service from Kylen and manageress (sorry, I didn't get her name) Excellent venue, clean and comfort, great value for money, excellent food,. Our first visit, definitely won't be our last Thank you

Friendly Staff, food was great, good atmosphere

Was down in the area in the today to see a concert. So because I work for another sizzling I knew what to expect from the food. We all really enjoyed it and was up to the correct spec so thank you. Pub had a lovely fell and atmosphere to it we sat on table 8. The staff were all very nice and friendly. Will visit again when back down in the area

To all the staff at The Treacle Mine yet another lovely visit! Thank you. We have visited many times and have never been disappointed. Lovely place to visit. We will be back very soon no doubt.

Arrived before lunch didn't fancy a breakfast so asked for something on lunchtime menu wasn't an issue no problem they said and knocked me up skewers chips and veg it was lovely

Nice friendly place food is lovely staff are very welcoming

Very welcoming friendly staff.. Great food... Karoke was great... Great atmosphere definitely visiting more often

Food was lovely and fresh piping hot greatly presented and a good size portion for the price

Nice place , nice staff , BBQ Ve was tasty ,chicken curry was a bit tastless. Unfortunately the Guinness was not poured the Guinneess. Some training for staff on how to pour Guinness would be recommended. Thanks

Sean is the best ever , he offers the world’s best service ever. Probably deserves a raise if you can me

Nice pub, good food, but long wait for it to be served.

Good quiz night, shame about the £60 car parking fine. WARNING: IF YOU PARK IN THE CAR PARK, MAKE SURE YOU ENTER YOUR REG NO WHEN YOU GO INTO THE BAR. I complained via their website and got a an email reply back saying they could cancel it. This was 2 weeks ago and I've heard nothing since. I don't really understand why they need the parking system given that there is nothing but houses nearby. Why would anyone park there unless they were going to the pub. It's a shame, as It spoiled a good night. I doubt I'll go back there.

Visited Treacle Mine to order some food. Shaun was excellent in advising me of a 40% off offer if I downloaded the app which I wasn’t aware of and was very much appreciated. Excellent service.

Shaun was really helpful tonight, made our night complete

Great meal well done chef was lovely 🤤😋 Front of house polite and friendly 👍🏻 Well done Ben and Kim Only problem was the skin on Fry's I'm not a lover 😞 bring back sweet potato Fry's please

Looking for something to eat after IKEA & wanted something better than fast food. Stumbled across the Treacle Mine & even though they were busy & said food was gonna be up to an hour it was only 20 mins for food & it was red hot & really tasty. Also ideal was that they brought the little uns food out first, always a good idea. Good food at a good price with good service too. Will come back again when next in the area & can't be bothered to queue for IKEA cafe

So me and my family went there for a birthday meal for my brother inlaw . We ordered our food using the APP and we was not seen for quite some time book at 5.30 did not have food till after 7pm . My wife went to ask whats taking so long they said their machine froze . And some one had to look at our order . There seemed to be quite a few staff members but it seemed to take a long time for our food to come. The food was fantastic best thing about the place. The service needs a bit of a shake up tbh . I was waiting to order a drink and they all seemed to be More interested in watching the football ok the TV. It won't be my next place to visit for my family meal . But when I do eventually go back I may change my mind .

Good steak but they forgot our drinks. Apart from that would be 5 stars

Always enjoy coming to the treacle whenever I'm in the area, the staff are friendly, the food is nice and the drinks are cold. Everything is affordable and there's plenty of entertainment. Bingo, a quiz, karaoke and a DJ/ live music depending on which day you go.

The atmosphere was good and the place was clean. Staff were friendly and accommodating. Food was a let down and the member of staff that took our food order was poor. He clearly couldn't hear us properly and didn't repeat the order back~ hence it was wrong. We weren't offered a receipt so we're unable to see if what was missing had actually been ordered. One of out party had food poisoning from the Tandori chicken dish which wasn't cooked properly.

Very noisy, didn't help with karaoke starting, service was bad,x7 people booked in 7.30 told it was 45 min for food! All served at different times,to our table,no tia Maria!no tea ,coffee machine broke!! Waitress was polite n pleasant, good luck for Sunday am going for breakfast with no tea or coffee..

We had a surprise Hen Brunch for my niece. The food was great! Plenty of coffee! And most importantly great service! There was a large group of us and nothing was too much trouble. Thank you

Sean and Tara are always pleasant to us

Visited today and Shaun was extremely helpful and very knowledgeable of the menu, I will be coming back

absolutely disgusted in the professionalism within this pub! myself and 3 friends went for a drink at 10pm this evening and we waited around 20 minutes to get our drinks to the table.. around 10 past 10 a member of staff came over to ask for our ID and we was all prepared; whilst I mentioned we have been waiting a while, the guy shrugged it off in quite a rude manner. He then decides to take my friend’s ID aside, and we assumed that he wants better lighting which makes sense. He then POINTED and wiggled his finger at my friend to step aside and make the accusation that my friend’s ID is fake! Although it being real, we was very confused at the fact that the guy refused to give it back just because his assumption. There is a small crack within the ID which made him believe this; however we have been to other bars where the ID has to be scanned and have for in with no issue. He then said to go home and grab another form of ID to get his other one back. We then come back with his passport and they took ages to make a decision, despite the fact it is very clear it is real. Cowardly, the guy never came out to apologise, we just got given the ID back from somebody else and we never got an apology for the inconvenience. Personally, we believe that this could be racially motivated due to the fact that my friend isn’t white British. However, we will never be able to know if that is the case or not. We also asked to her a refund for our drinks and the guy said “yeah just ask the bar” in quite a rude manner. We will not be returning. We are usually quite loyal to The Treacle Mine but the professionalism and the service provided this evening was absolutely atrocious.

Very friendly staff and great service from Tara Enjoyed a good meal while attending the weekly quiz.

Came here with my kids over the holidays, good variety of food and the staff were very friendly. Food tasted great! Hats of to the chefs 👨‍🍳 !! Highly recommend going here! Hope to come back soon😀

went here today with my friends and family and the waitress and bartender mayson was absolutely smashing it like always made our drinks and got our food order out as soon as it was ready didn’t have to wait even tho was busy

Myself my Fiancée and our children had a lovely meal out at the treacle mine. The value was great and food was good quality pub food. The waitress Willow Gibson went above and beyond to make our visit pleasurable and was great with the children. Her natural friendly manner didn’t go in noticed. Thank you

The service was lovely all the staff was respectful quick service bartender and waitresses willow was very polite made sure our food was correct and we had a great time would definitely recommend and will be definitely coming back!

Amazing staff and amazing food. Ben is incredible and was very helpful with everything. Fully recommend!

The food was really nice the waitress and bartender Willow was exceptional she got us everything we needed and made sure food was out on time definitely will be coming again

Food was great. My family had a lovely time getting together for a pub dinner! Will definitely come again and recommend friends. Service was great, especially from Sophie who served our food. Jay and Ian were in charge of the kitchen. Frfr the greatest cooks in all the lands, from West Thurrock to Tilbury town. 🥳

The worker was so nice wonderful service I even happened to get the workers name (willow) honestly so lovely and even gave her a tip for her amazing service!!

willow was absolutely amazing putting correct food through and getting everything we needed after food was delivered

The garden is perfect for young children and babies as it is enclosed and gated. Food was lovely and friendly staff

Had a great family meal. The staff member Willow was exceptional and very friendly and helpful to us.

Food was great. Took a long time to be delivered given that the restaurant was almost ready Fire alarm went off twice. It was a false alarm but we had little confidence that staff were trained in what to do.

I had steak well done and after I scraped the welded bits off there was enough to fit on a dessert spoon. Fries were nearly non existing and only 2 small onion rings. Value for money was too much for what I had, would avoid this place and go for somewhere like a Harvester you're bound to get more value for money.

Staff were friendly and helpful. Food great value

The face was terrible absolutely vile my mum had Hair in her food, garlic bread was hard

Had a nice picky lunch with a friend ....

Haven't been here in a few years, so thought we'd give it a try. Food amazing steak & rib perfectly done. Service was great, especially from the two managers. The only reason for not giving 5 stars was that there was bit of a wait on food coming out. It wasn't that busy either. Overall definitely be back again soon

Great food at great prices, really enjoyed ourselves

Shaun was very helpful today when I visited rhe premises

Food was very good and price also very good. On the whole great value. Had a slight hiccup with ordering but can confidently say I'm sure it's not the norm. In any event the staff went out of their way to make up for it.

Wonderful atmosphere and very good food quality! Big fan of the battered mushrooms!

Lovely food, breakfast strawberry waffle is beautiful and the deserts are to die for, Nacho’s with the cheese and spring onions are refreshing.

It was amazing food was incredible, staff were very welcoming and the service was great definitely an experience I’d want to be around again

Hi I came across this place in a area I am not familiar with, I noticed the billboards, serving breakfast, I love a fry up but tend not make a habit to eat them often, I am very fussy with food, as I Train and like to keep in shape, but have weakness in food, this was one of the best breakfast I had Eaten, compliments to the chef is very clued up on preparing food, the bacon was grilled and still delicious, the FRESH mushrooms was grilled, Tomatoes, Eggs, hash browns with toast and beans, it was amazing and even more amazing the price: five pound something I paid. Forget the greasy cafes. As well as breakfast they serve Lunch and dinner the menu is extensive and something for everyone at very reasonable price, the offer at mo is 2 lots of cod and chips £12.50, these places are rare, even better they have music and Karaoke on Saturdays, definitely looking forward to going back there, on a Saturday as I know the food will be scrumptious, will enjoy it thoroughly, and a bonus the beautiful surrounding’s outside in the garden. I would highly recommend this place, please try it and give your feed back to the place that truly deserve a five star from me. A reminder do not do what I done, as it was my first visit I was totally oblivious to the signs to Register your car until I received a notification to my dismay one week later for a parking fine, so I called the Treacle mine direct and spoke to Emma, she had great customer service skills, very attentive, immediately took my details to cancel my fine and confirmed by email. Register your car upon arrival ! And Enjoy your evening and meal at the Treacle mine in Grays

We've given this venue a couple of chances but we have now consistently seen issues with the service. The 1st time with a party there was a huge delay with most dishes and a couple were incorrect. This last visit we ordered 3 starters and a chicken sharer platter to be served together. After waiting an hour 2 of the smaller dishes arrived and the waitress advised they had run out of chicken so couldn't provide the sharer platter. How on earth does it take an hour to decide a menu item wasn't available? I'm also amazed on realising this they failed to check with us if we wanted to proceed with the order in it's entirety. The quality of the dishes we did receive were not really on a par to the price so I'm afraid that's the last of the chances this restaurant gets. The pub element of the venue is OK with a variety of events taking place but they don't have enough staff to cope with the drinks. All in all not great.

Shaun is amazing and fantastic. Lovely to speak to. Asset to the team. Asset to the whole company. He is the best.

I put this note because of the staff, I have an application from this restaurant and I tell the bartender that I have 1 free drink but he tries to explain that I need another code, I understand that he is trying to pretend to be something else but that's why you have received such a note.

The food was spot on but the service provided by a lovely girl called Kelsie really made our experience ten time better, she was so attentive and really helpful!

I thought it was amazing! All of the staff were really friendly and the food was delicious, the Cadbury lovers sundae in particular was amazing and the presentation was perfect.

The staff are extremely welcoming and friendly. I had the Mac and Cheese and I have to say it was the best I've ever tasted.

Food was delicious. I recommend the chicken and mushroom pie. The service was great. The waiters were kind!

Shaun was fab, thank you for helping us, lovely dinner too

As always the food was tasty just as described. As it was a Monday the pub was quiet but the staff were friendly and helpful.

Nice place to eat will be going back soon

Food was excellent and the staff are very friendly lovey evening ..

Amazing place, Shaun was an amazing host, service couldn’t of been any better

Amazing atmosphere staff was very polite and friendly specially Shawn the assistant manager!!! High recommended

Great pub. Team fantastic, especially Emma who went the extra mile for me today whilst I was there . Necessary due to my ability to not see things directly in front of my face 😂 Thank you for a level of customer service that sadly isn’t common everywhere . Ian

Shaun and mark was amazing cooked food to perfection

It is a restaurant with tasty food and a pleasant atmosphere

No food just a drink with friends.

Would like to thank a staff member sean for helping me in a situation with a table for the football game phoned me back twice to sort it out appreciated it.

The food was excellent staff friendly. Would definitely go there again

Just wanted to say a massive thank you for the great service and food . Sam greeted us and showed us to our table. We had breakfast for 10 on Father’s Day . Although they were short staffed you wouldn’t have known MJ and Jason were in the kitchen. We had a wonderful time as we always do at the treacle mine. Thanks again Darren aka Gary

Service was brilliant. We went I on the spur of the moment when england was playing .the bar staff was so professional. Will return

They've messed up the first order after waiting over half an hour then had to wait half an hour more to bring the right order. The second order didn't even come and when we asked the lady manager after over 2 hours of waiting she said they couldn't find us and got refunded . They could find us the first time but not the second time? We were in the garden at the same table. Definitely didn't deserve the £15 tip we left after placing the first order. What a joke!

Had breakfast here a couple of times and really tasty and great value

Very good pub and good food just a shame that the beer pump seems to cause problem and beer is taken off.

Really good athmosphere!! totally recommend ❤️

Great place on a Sunday, lovely food , service, good atmosphere, large beer garden , always busy in hot weather .

The menu has recently changed a little, some options for the better, others not. Waited nearly 45mins for food which is not acceptable. The chip portions are tiny and my daughters chips were horrible and hard, they'd obviosuly been sitting around for ages. Not a great experience

shaun was amazing so helpful Ben was amazing too

Came in for a few drinks and a meal with my family and was greeted served by a lovely woman lacey, she was so polite charming and my little girl loved her, thank you so much for youre amazing service you are a diamond woman

Went here for a meal with a few friends and had the best time! Our food was absolutely delicious and our night was 100% made up by Lacey who had us non stop laughing, smiling and looked after all night. Thankyou so much! Will definitely be returning!

Great service welcoming vibe and great food

Amazing experience Decent food Good price Lovely staff

Had a lovely meal today at lunch time food was amazing and was served by Lacey nothing was to much hassle for her will definitely will be back

Unfortunately was not a pleasant experience. Food was bland, took over 45 minutes to arrive and wasn’t overally busy. Communication was poor and items were missing from order. Not the restauranta fault but kids running left, right and centre which little parenting so was a nightmare of a dining experience! My hunters chicken was not great. Such a shame because the waitress did seem stressed and was lovely.

Great customer service from Shaun, couldn’t have been more helpful :)

We went on a Friday night, was busy, nice atmosphere, lovely staff, great music thanks to DJ Marky B, we had a good night 👍💯🙂

The staff were extremely welcoming and accommodating. They couldn’t do enough to make us feel more welcome. The food was great and price very reasonable.

Food was excellent, staff friendly, polite and efficient

Emma was extremely helpful aswell as kind even though we delivered food to the pub which we weren’t allowed she was completely fine aswell as took our rubbish away. 10/10 customer service thank you Emma so much

Had a great time here, staff especially helpful! Emma was a wonderful server and very attentive and helpful! Would love to cone again! Thank you emma! Oxo

Fantastic breakfast, great service from lovely staff and very reasonably priced too! What more can you ask for????

Average food, average service, average all round!

Lovely breakfast, great prices. The lady behind the bar remembers our order, and we are so very awkward, my bestie and I. Uncut toast, egg on separate plates, etcetera. Best in the area by a mile.

come more then one time so can say i love this pleace and thanks for your kindly and all ways friendly thanks again x

Great food, very welcoming by bar staff, great entertainment and good crowd of people and atmosphere

Friendly staff, great food and loved the karaoke. Food could be slightly cheaper would love blue light to be 20% not 10

Staff, service, very welcoming will defo come back. Entertainment was amazing
