The Windmill in Havering

Great pub been coming in for a while and it’s always a friendly atmosphere and speedy service

We had a lovely family dinner at The Windmill pub. The starters were delicious, especially the crispy calamari. I enjoyed a hearty steak and ale pie, while my partner loved the fantastic burger. Our little one had a nutritious kids’ meal. Paul, the manager, was great, making our experience even better—especially with the warm chocolate brownie dessert to top it off!

Really nice local, very friendly and does really good food at good prices, gets rammed at weekends but is good fun

A lovely pub. Staff were lovely and helpful.

Great service and friendly staff

I had a great time friendly staff and management was nice. also a great atmosphere and good back ground music making it a good experience.

Great atmosphere and efficient service. Little to no wait for our drinks. Have been coming here a lot and it’s really improved of late.

The bar was super busy on Saturday and there was a rock band on which wouldn’t usually be our cup of tea but it was such a fun evening. The bar was extremely busy at times but the service remained efficient and the tables were being cleaned when possible.

Amazing roast dinner and a reasonable price too. Great service and friendly staff make it a lovely atmosphere. Will be back

popped in for lunch, had the halloumi wrap, it was delicious! i also had pink lemonade au vodka which is new here and definitely recommend. i will definitely be back

Great place with great atmosphere and always polite service! Highly recommend

the buffalo fries are delectable. Served by a very nice and polite young man with black hair.

Brilliant pub, always served with a smile.we often have the little plates which are really good with drinks.

Really good food and friendly staff,burgers are really tasty and good value. They do a quiz on Tuesdays which is good fun

Nice little pub. Only had drinks, but pleasant enough

Friendly, welcoming with a really good selection of beers, importantly, fruit ciders and many different spirits. The katsu curry is the best anywhere and to top it all off there is a heated garden. Will definitely recommend and will definitely be back.

Nice pub in an accessible location as underground nearby. Staff friendly and food available if required.

Lovely pub! Great atmosphere, served by Paul, what a hilarious guy! Thanks Paul, we will be back.

Super fun night with karaoke and meeting new people!

Beer garden is lovely, food is great and staff are attentive. Pub seems cleaner and has a great atmosphere!

We popped in for a drink and something to eat, we bought the sharers meals so we could have a selection of different to foods. The food was great and the service was nice and friendly and quiet quick

Lovely food and top notch service! Caitlin was brilliant, well looked after!

Lovely crispy fish and chips, Kirsty was lovely and chatty, and other staff were also very accommodating. All this and good value.

Service with a smile Thank you Kirsty Katsu curry was delicious!

Haven’t been here for a while. Quiet Monday afternoon thought we’d pop in for something to eat. What has happened to this place?! Service was slow. - waited about 30 minutes for our food. 2 tables had dirty plates etc on and nobody cleared them while we were there. They weren’t busy so no excuse. Red wine was awful - possibly watered down or the absolute cheapest they could buy. Glasses and cutlery were stained/dirty. Not cheap either! Definitely won’t be returning.

My son and I came for lunch as a treat for completing his first day at school. My son had the ‘make your own tacos’ which were delicious and a lot of fun for him to construct himself. I had the bacon and blue burger which was great, flame grilled taste and good portion sizes. We enjoyed eating outside in the sun and staff were super friendly and helpful.

Beautiful lunch friendly atmosphere we will be back to sample the rest of the rest of you atmosphere and brilliant menu .

Come here often for a Sunday lunch. Always good value for money. Ordered roast beef but didn’t have horseradish so nick & Paul nipped to the shop to get us some. Definitely above & beyond. Fabulous.

Nick is a star , he made my time at the windmill unreal we have had the best night #nick4life

Only passing by Monday 26/08/2024 and stopped for a beer. Sat outside. Many uncleared tables out and in after probably a busy BH lunch service but no excuse not to have enough staff on duty to deal with it. A branch of Greene King. Not impressed.

The young lady who served me was very nice and polite. I ordered a portion of chips and was served with a very bowl of chips, but was given no condiments, cutlery or paper tissues to wipe my hands . It could be a good pub, but doesn't get my vote.

Absolutely love this pub. But I was here on Wednesday 21st of August and the old man behind the bar was extremely rude and refusing to order us our food especially when the pub was quiet. Shame to see it ruin the pub we grew to love.

Great food for family and good value. Paul and Micki were very helpful and friendly.

Nice pub but it would be even better if staff would kindly ask very noisy customers to respect the weekly quiz night. Seldom see any managers on Tuesday evening which might improve this.

The food here was very nice. Large portions and reasonably priced. The reason I gave it four stars was because we waited for fifty minutes for the food. It was busy but not that busy to wait so long. The staff were lovely , they just needed another pair of hands and it would have been okay.

Decent food and very good service

I came here with some friends who live near by and have always said it’s a lovely local pub, and i can say it definitely is! i had the hot honey chicken burger which was recommended by staff on their new menu and it was absolutely amazing. drinks were reasonably priced with a fizz friday deal, will definitely be returning soon!

Massive choice of beers and ciders which is good news, I had the duo roast which is beef and turkey, really was very good. Will come back in the week for a burger as they looked really good. Staff super friendly and landlord was very good to talk to.

We visited the windmill as a family on a Sunday. We ordered an adult and child’s roast and the burger. All the food was really delicious and reasonably priced. My 4 year old son loved his kids roast and enjoyed the colouring on offer. The service was outstanding, Paul and the team really looked after us. Will be visiting again.

Place used to be a dive but since the new guy has come in, it’s really turned around. Much cleaner and well run. Kudos.

Had my dads wake here and the bar staff were lovely. They gave us the area at back which had its own private courtyard garden. Food was amazing and homemade. Lovely portion cuts on quiche. Lovely wraps chips. Everyone went back for seconds.

What a lovely pub. It was my first time and for sure not the last. Great service. Couldn't ask for more

Lovely pub with really good food and service, staff were all really friendly and helpful. Will definitely recommend and will definitely be back soon 😊

Had a great evening at The Windmill. Food was good and plenty of choice for drinks.

Nice pub it's a shame the new manager is so miserable 🤥

Great service friendly staff especially Tash, always makes us feel welcome and goes above and beyond

Always have a great time in the Windmill, friendly staff and relaxed atmosphere. It is always lovely to be welcomed by Tash who goes above and beyond for the customers. Highly recommend 🥳✨

Lovely pub. On a main road but fenced in garden so safe for kids. There is some parking, but you have to put your numberplate in at the bar. There is street parking available nearby, and Upminster bridge station is on the district line and literally over the road and under the bridge. Havent eaten in there for a while but when I did the food was yummy!

Insufficient bar staff. Barely 2 people serving on a Saturday eve

Had a lovely evening at the Windmill! Will definitely be returning.

lovely atmosphere and great service , especially from the bartender Caitlin who served me , who was incredibly nice and helpful with my queries.

Great food and good service from Caitlin, with a nice friendly atmosphere, definitely would recommend the pub

The food was really nice. However, they were short staffed. They didn't know there was an event going on near them and they would have a larger volume of customers. Ordered online. Luckily they picked up the ticket and waited about 20-30mins for our food and drink. Suggestion that the communicate with business/colleges in the area to see what's on and staff accordingly

We went to the Windmill pub to watch the England football game on Saturday. The pub was busy and had a lovely atmosphere, the staff were working hard but all very friendly. We had already eaten, but the food being served looks delicious. It was a really nice afternoon/evening and we'll definitely be back again soon.

Allways a great service from the staff especially catlin 👌

Amazing pub with brilliant staff and food,Paul the new GM is good fun and good to talk too. Great vibes at the england game tonight

Ordered & paid for food to be told they weren't doing meals,? Absolute shambles when every table had menus plus meal deal offers inside & out. There are plenty of other pubs that do sell food so not too upset not to be visiting the Windmill Pub in the future

Visited for our first quiz night and it was a brilliant experience. The quiz master was great and comical. The bar staff were brilliant considering the amount of people who were in attendance. Cant wait for the next quiz night

Enjoyed the dog-friendly pub garden, perfect for relaxing with my pup. I've added it to my barguide.london site too!

Lovely setting, lovely staff and lovely food, will definitely recommend and will definitely be back. Outside garden is huge and there is a secret garden with heaters!!

I have been coming here for years, a lovely local pub, especially when Caitlin and Natasha is working who is always helpful and kind

Very friendly staff and atmosphere, Tash was extremely helpful explaining menu items.

Meet here regularly with my friend. It’s always very welcoming , Kirsty particularly is always attentive and great at what she does. A credit to the pub . The food is always good pub fare , the macaroni cheese particularly is very good . Clean throughout with comfortable seating . Only gave 4 star instead of 5 due to plastic glasses being used due to euro football . On a Wednesday lunchtime with family and more senior customers dining it seemed a bit unnecessary!

Because they choose to put the Football on, no sound, just Subtitles, we are now subjected to Horrible plastic Glasses, all day long. Apparently down to its License, which is based on events that happened nearly 20 years ago. Sort it out Greene King, you have been running this pub into the ground for years now.

The Bar Staff were really nice. If you’re thinking of going here for food I wouldn’t bother as it took 1 hour and 9 minutes to come out and a few people asked why it’s taking so long, there was only around 15 people in the pub and not all were eating. When the food finally came out it looked nice but all tasteless. The bill was £47 pound and was not worth it.

Had a great time here, good food in good company, and the team were so friendly too!

Had a fantastic lunch at The Windmill in Upminster. The food was delicious and the service we received from Kirsty was second to none. Look forward to returning again soon.

I was served by seb and he was delightful behind the bar, I enjoyed a cheese and bacon burger which was cooked to perfection with fresh crispy onions, paired with the sea salted fries it was a wonderful experience, would defo come again and would recommend to anybody wanting to visit

Nice relaxed atmosphere for Sunday lunch. Pie is great and staff friendly with good service. Food service a little bit slow, but wasn’t a problem for us!

Went for a meal with my Dad and had a lovely time. The Manger (Seb) help us pick out a new burger, which I must say is 10/10 everything was well cooked the pub had a sence of family. My Dad enjoyed the cider Inches so he had 2 of them and I had a Coca-Cola with a lemon that you again Seb

Ordered food at 13:10. Did not get it till 14:05 so was late coming back from lunch. It was not even that busy so the reason for the slowness is difficult to understand.

Lovely local pub, served by Lilly and Caitlin majority of the night who were amazing

Lovely pub, quick service especially from caitlin

Caitlin has a heart of gold she serves with pride 🍻

Been coming here for 10 years through all the staff changes. Seb and the current team are amazing. Really friendly and welcoming.

Went to the windmill on a moderately empty Thursday, served by tash and caitlin, brilliant service and will be returning

Exquisite food and lovely range of Ales and other Alcoholic drinks. Caitlin, Kirsty and the team are all very kind, helpful and efficient. Absolutely recommend.

I visited the windmill in Upminster for a drink on a Thursday night, although the pub wasn’t busy there was still a nice atmosphere all round. I was served by both Caitlin and Tash and they were lovely throughout the whole evening. Overall a great experience!

I visited this pub for food and it was delightful. The Guinness is superb and expertly poured with a shamrock as well. Very impressive. The staff are all great, service by Jack, Caitlin and Tash is phenomenal. The manager Seb keeps on top of everything and makes sure all customers are checked on and that everyone is happy. Would recommend highly

Went on a moderately quiet Monday night but still had a lovely warm feel to the pub with nice customers and friendly bar staff. Was served by Tash majority of the evening and was always a friendly service. Was greeted when arriving and leaving. An overall lovely experience with great food and drinks

I was in the windmill on the 23rd of February this year at 3 pm ,it was packed ,we were celebrating my friend’s dads 95th birthday we wanted to order some food for all of us but the waiting time was too long , especially for a 95 year old , there was one bar staff serving behind the bar who was also bringing out the food ,obviously this was not her fault she was working very hard. Please can you explain why on a busy Friday you only had one bar staff working. I drink in the windmill regularly and have noticed severe lack of staff

Young girl with a great smile when serving her name was tash really good behind bar and on floor and love the atmosphere through out the night!!

Atmosphere is lovely staff are very nice and welcoming I’m a regular here with my partner and always enjoy our nights out in the windmill

Great staff, and great food! Always my go to local pub

Nice local pub, good food, friendly staff and a lovely atmosphere.

My friend and I had the roast beef. The service was really friendly and Caitlin was so polite and helpful. The food was lovely and we would definitely go back again.

Nice pub. Good atmosphere, reasonable prices for drinks. Didn't eat, so haven't rated.

Well done to Tash at her service who delivers your Guinness with a shamrock ! This is a skill and added touch that has been forgotten over time!

Met some members of our family there for lunch. Food was good but unfortunately there was no tea or coffee available as their machine was out of order and they were waiting for it to be repaired. The staff were polite and efficient.

I have been here 3 times. First time waiting over an hour for food and wasn't busy. Second time come out no problem. Come today and waited an hour and 10 minutes for chicken tenders! Kept being told its being "plated up". 20 minutes later and apparently still being plated up.

Absolutely lovely pub, with wonderful food, an amazing set of staff and just a lovely atmosphere in general. Can't wait to go back there again for a great night and some brilliant entertainment!!! :))

Fish and chips amazing. Cold beers. Reasonable priced.the staff really friendly. New manager seems friendly. Looks like a good turn around.

Food was brought out quick, and very tasty. Service was good, one member of staff but never waited for a drink at the bar. First time ive ever been here il deffo come back if im in the area.

Nice place to spend time with friends.

Bar staff of 3 more interested in tucking themselves away in the office for a chat and a giggle than actually making the ordered drinks, horribly overcooked food we had to send back.

Nice place to go for lunch nice food nd good price

Absolutely brilliant, no nonsense pub with a very good roast regarding quality and quantity. The service was second to none both barmaids/ waitresses were very nice to talk to and clearly hard working..I hardly ever had a bad meal or experience in a green king and this lived up to expectations (the toilets were also clean and up to standard)

Service was first class. 7th January '24. She were brilliant! Typical Green King establishment. Decor, so-so. Toilets very clean but need maintenance. Pub food. Music not too loud.

Came here first time, had a meal and a pint, staff was very good and welcoming. Food was really nice and prepared really well. Will come back here

The windmill is a great pub with very friendly staff. Especially Caitlin who has always served us with a smile on her face and is very welcoming. Would highly recommend xx
