I ordered the fish and chips. The service was amazing and the food was to die for. The fish was cooked very well. The chips were cooked perfectly and I didn’t even need to add salt or pepper. Overall the dish was very tasty! Thumbs up to David the new chef

The food was fabulous such a great change from when I last visited in the summer. Kudos to the new chef D. Hoping to have a great time during Christmas

Went to the world's end for lunch on Saturday and it was spot on,we had the fish and chips and onion rings,all was lovely.great atmosphere with music,would like to say a big thank you to the barmaid who was so helpful and to the chef who was genuinely friendly👍and dog friendly too.

A nice public house by the River Thames under new management with a new chef

The food was gorgeous and the hubby is very fussy and the staff were awesome definitely recommend

The pub apparently has a lot of history, it's a shame it needs a bit of doing up but the chief was really nice and the food was nice too

Definitely recommend great service and very nice food 👌

Old English Pub, very old, is right next to Tilbury Fort. Very low ceiling when you enter, then not, very typical English 😁 Very nice and dynamic staff, and good and abundant food. Free parking and affordable price. I went at noon, local customers, English Pub atmosphere 😁 Recommended if you are in the area, and great views of the Thames.

Visited the world's end, today on the way out from a visit to Tilbury Fort. Turns out one of, if not the last pub in Tilbury. Staff lovely, welcoming, nice pint, disabled access. If you're passing, pop in, old school decent people, make you feel welcome. Definitely going back for a pint. Unfortunately Close at 8pm.

I went in to wait for my client and was greeted by a lovely mixed race girl friendly and helpful. She got me a drink and as I waited a guy roughly in his 30s appeared in the doorway who was very scruffy and unkept. He constantly was running his hands through his hair, then returning with a plate to my disbelief this was the chef. He then came closer to the barmaid and was talking the smell of body odour turned my stomach. He then went back to the door was scratching his lower regends. No apron no hair net but dirty and scruffy clothing. I came in for a lunch with a potential client but was embarrassed I chose this venue as previous visits impressed me.

Not what it was, but trying & we can get it back to what it was because staff are trying to

Worst service I've ever had...ups actually I wasn't ben served. I was waiting at the bar for approx 5 minutes for someone to show up after the gentleman in front of me that was already waiting there was served and the bartender left without even looking at me, I've stayed there very embarrassed for another 5 minutes and left. Worst experience by farr

Nice fresh lunch before going on the cruise. Freshly made fish and chips was yummy 😋Only 10mins walk to cruise terminal.

A quait little pub by the water with very simple yet nice interiors and well spaced with a pool table and even a fire place. The staff is great and helpful and a nice place to visit when the weather's also right with an entrance space to the Fort right behind!

Very quiet pub lovely people working there

A pub with an incredible history, but with the ferry closing and indifferent owners I doubt it has a future. Food offering was ‘Don’t ask about food, when I have time I will go and look in the freezer and see what there is’. Fifteen minutes later still no idea what food they could offer so I left.

Old & quaint little pub, so glad they've not knocked it down & built flats on the land, like they're doing everywhere else! It's got so much history! Didn't eat there, but had a well deserved pint! 🥴😂🤣

Everything excellent! From the place itself, food and friendly staff!! Made me feel like a real Pirate! 🏴‍☠️🏴‍☠️🏴‍☠️ definitely will be back!

Nice little old pub situated not far from the Tilbury ferry terminal, which is about 10 minutes walk from there. Very old historical pub with lots of references to the past in the many interesting pictures around the inside on the walls. A good selection of beer and wine on offer and a basic pub menu with very reasonable prices and very friendly staff ready to help you. The pub is not far from the Fort up the road, and you can park your car in the pub carpark and walk from there to it. We had a lovely fish and chips to enjoy before we embarked on the exploration of the Fort.

Real old world pub. Absolutely lovely

Needs serious renovations undertaken throughout. Drinks selection very average. On the plus side my Guinness was pretty good.

This pub only opened just before Christmas after a long closure and is getting it's act together. I didn't eat, but the ale was good and the staff were extremely pleasant and service was excellent.

Dermot and his team are friendly and effortlessly attentive Nice beer, lovely bar, can imagine great in the summer as they have a nice outdoor area looking over Tilbury fort. Will definitely be popping back

Dropped in for Saturday lunch after visiting the fort. Standard selection of pub food prepared well and served promptly even though staff were short-handed. Pub allows dogs and children although it would have been better if some of these played outside rather than chasing round and round the tables. Not quite the quiet place to unwind that it had the potential to be but would definitely drop in again to see how it is on another day.

Used their carpark only to go check the water for fishing.. and it's free! Been inside the pub twice on later visits and had to use different entrance on 1 occasion as strong winds unfortubstely damaged the roof. Top staff, I was dealt with nicely every time.. shout out to the ladies working there.. I appreciated every inch's..

Worth mentioning that their food hygiene rating is 1 out of 5!

Really cozy pub with jovial service. One of the best i've seen!

I visited hear, very good, all round. Recommended 👍

Finally they are open! Lovely vibrant lady behind the bar, Shorty, thank you... look forward to some tasty meals in the future 😋

2023 August Unfortunately the World's end was closed on our visit. Quite an isolated location for a bar / pub. We were told it should open in the next few weeks.

Went to have lunch today, closed, chairs on the tables, shame as food looked good. Think this place might be closed for good

If you're not local to the World's End pub Tilbury and fancy checking it out, be warned, you might not be welcome. The cleintel are friendly but the barmaid is a nightmare. We were on a photo assignment at Tilbury Fort on Monday 21/3/2022. We ordered food, which was nothing to write home about, sending me to the toilet three times, and I had an orange juice, presented with lipstick all over the rim of the glass. I complained, and though it was replaced there was no appolllogy, and the barmaids officious and surely attitude throughout made it plain the act was deliberate. Even my dinner knife was not clean but rather than provoke a scene I washed it in the gents. Altogether an unsavoury experience and not to be recommended Time of ordeal 15.00.

Walked all the way from Coalhouse fort and it’s shut!

Great food, fast service and a great view!

Smashing little boozer. It wouldn't be the end of the world if you had a tipple here

"The public house is rumoured to be visited by the ghost of a highwayman who haunts the rooms of children. "Swift Nick", also known as William John Nevison was from a good family in Yorkshire but chose a life of highway robbery. It's believed that he committed in Kent, used the Tilbury ferry before riding to Chelmsford and then on to York. He was hanged in 1686."

It was nice to sit by the fireplace.

Not a bad little boozer... loads of parking. Fair old price for the beet too.

Nice hot coffee at the end of a long working day

A fantastic place with beautiful views 😊 lots of paths you can walk along for hours 😊

Good pub, excellent selection of gins

A real oldy pub. Good range of beers and food at reasonable prices

Large barn of a pub next to Tilbury Fort. Basic decor but a good food menu. Friendly locals and staff

Really liked it very old pub but oven wasn't working that day .

Great gammon steak, service brill, waited 15 mins. No worries

Food and Staff very good, only about a 5 min walk from the Tilbury ferry jetty

Staff were great The food was great to but if you are not a big eater share one between you would give it four and half but don't know how to do it

Decent grub, relatively quiet parking overnight which is somewhat a rarity in the area.

We had a delicious meal here after a 2 hour walk round Tilbury Fort. Friendly staff and big portions. Made to feel very welcome. Thanks all

Nice pub very helpful and friendly staff, lovely quite garden to sit in, food was very nice, would recommend to others

Pub with character, good selection of lagers ciders and a good bitter. Good size outdoor space.limited hot food and sandwiches served with salad. Prices good and represented value for money.

Good place for pub lunch and a thirst quenching pint 🍻

People there were friendly and helpful nice big car park and you can look over the wall and see the Thames lol only gripe is it could do with a spruce up outside .

Really nice down to earth pub with really lovely staff!

Very nice beer garden loads of space, well worth a visit and the beers not bad either 😀

Very British pub, really enjoyed having a pint there

Locals pub. Interesting location, nice building.

Today we used this property twice whilst visiting the area of The Thames River. The plus would be free parking and the convenience of the pub in relation to this. At around 12pm we had a couple of drinks and snacks. The pub itself is very tired and dated. The staff member was polite but seemed bored. After our return from our long walk we thought we'd have a drink, use the facilities and make the 90 min journey home. We entered the bar which had become busier, mainly with families and lots of kids still in school clothes. That's fine, we went to the bar and were basically ignored. My partner needed to use the toilet and we agreed if we hadn't been served on her return we'd leave. Suffice to say we left drinkless. I would suggest you don't go out of your way to visit.

Lovely pub for lunch time meal. Highly recommend sandwich section with chips. Staff are Lovely and pub garden with dog water bowl.

Nice place to have a pub, but food OK, but just OK....

Carpark's open for unit parking . Only 4 in it , all the rest still on the road.

Good simple food, great children's menu food.

Good value on drinks . Olde time pub

Historic 17th century bar. Parking is available

Amazing place. Lots of history. Great food and drink.

A great pub great food with nice friendly staff with a nice atmosphere

Great pub good food and great staff

Food good, music far too loud to be able to talk and hear what being said.

Excellent place with good food, pleasant service and spectacular beers.

A good pub lunch with generous portions and a variety of menu choices

Tables were sticky to touch, bar staff to busy with selfies to notice customers, and when they did notice then served the wrong drinks twice, children running riot. Be a while before I return.

Popped in for a soft drink and a snack before getting the Tilbury ferry to Gravesend. Atmospheric pub with lovely interior, shame about the tatty outside area and the very rude, drunk and disorderly family also there on the day of our visit (around 2pm on a Thursday afternoon....).

Lovely lunch with great selection of beers, wines and spirits Garden too Close to River Thames

Excellent food, would recommend allowing time to relax

Great atmosphere, huge portions of food.

The service was nice and friendly I recommend.

Nice pub good staff big beer garden and good bands .

Only pub in Tilbury apparently. Worth popping in if you visit Tilbury Fort. Dogs allowed outside only. Pub grub available. Friendly staff.

I have visited multiple times now when parking onsite/in the local area and have found staff to all be polite, friendly and providing a good quality of service👌 I will continue to visit when I am local. Keep up the good work!🙂

Great pub, with parking for HGV drivers 👍👍

Nice open air terrace. In addition to quality food and good service.

Absolutely love this pub, after breaking down during lockdown they were overly helpful and were absolutely fabulous 😊

Really good pub, I had the homemade curry which was really nice... the portions are great too. In my opinion If you leave here hungry then it's your fault haha

This is in Tilbury ...so was very wary . But also next to an iconic site in Tilbury Fort - Armada speech and much more . The staff were very friendly and the food was really quite nice with healthy portion sizes ....a real surprise..will return when in the area .

Lovely food, huge plates, cheerful staff, even got its own wild life, 2 x young foxes

Nice little pub tucked away with good food friendly staff and nice garden

I have to say upon opening and busy super busy your girls worked as superstars especially Joe who was on top of everyone's needs. She was running like a headless chicken and was at all tables. Really appreciate you taking us in with no booking and was happy to wait for survice out of respect as I have been head waitress inondon before. Credit to the staff especially after such horrible times. Will come back and would enjoy seeing Joe again. Thanks all!

The worlds end as always been a great pub great atmosphere great staff And very tasty food great value for money

Great food Great beer greetb service

Nice food good atmosphere but abit pricey.

Does feel a bit like the end of the world but we were made very welcome in this cosy and characterful pub. Had a good sunday roast by the open fire then a bracing walk along to the Fort. Recommended.

Good value breakfast, Free coffee refills, The staff are excellent and take the covid / social distancing rules seriously. Good work.

Sells decent food and great views of the Thames too

Always nice to pop in for a drink and a meal. Olde world style pub with great views over the Thames and walking distance to Coalhouse Fort and Tilbury Station

Friendly staff!!! Very nice place !!!

Lovely meal, and safe distancing x

Very poor service, got the drinks but nobody came to take the lunch order, wait it for 30min,then I have ask to pay for drinks as don't want to wait for much longer,they send me back to the table to wait again,very disappointed!!! 18/10/20
