Went there for lunch with my sister. Probably picked the wrong time as it was very busy so understandably was a wait. Staff were very apologetic and nice. Food when it came was very enjoyable. Very great flavours and presentation.

Popped in on a sunny Sunday afternoon after church parade with Scouts. Really just wanted somewhere that wasn't going to provide a soggy sandwich or fried food. I picked Black & Red purely based on location, but we're already planning repeat visits, including with family. Let's start with the price. £12 for two courses for a lunch menu is amazing. What you get for that is a selection of freshly made dips, meats or cheeses. I opted for the spinach tarator and it was perfect for a warm summer day. The fresh Turkish bread that came up was delicious. For my main, I had the chicken shish, which came up with rice and the most impressive salad I've ever seen. As we finished up, the server brought over some pieces of warm and sticky baklava that really finished of the meal perfectly. In a high street full of the same carbon-copy coffee shops and fast food chains, this is a real delight that I hope locals and visitors alike will make the most of.

Black and Red Bistro Grill is a true culinary delight that never fails to impress. With a menu that beautifully blends Turkish and Mediterranean flavors, every bite is a journey for the taste buds. The service at this bistro is impeccable - friendly, prompt, and always going the extra mile to ensure a memorable dining experience. What sets this place apart is their generous half-price offer on all their mouthwatering dishes, making it a go-to spot for budget-friendly and delicious meals. Whether it's breakfast or lunch, I find myself gravitating towards Back and Red Bistro Grill each day. For a perfect fusion of quality, service, and affordability, this bistro is a must-visit destination.

Went to Townhouse for breakfast having been there four times previously and had good service and food. Went today with friends and the staff were different. The breakfast was served on cold plates and bacon and sausage were cold. Both cooked breakfasts were the same. Returned the meals and pointed it out and had just coffee. It was a shame as it’s always been good in the past. Will think twice about returning. Service was also slow with only two other people in there at the time.

TERRIBLE service. Last Saturday, 2pm we went in for lunch. No waitress around for 5 mins so we sat down, no menus, got them ourselves. Asked for coffee to start, 15 mins later nothing. Only 3 other tables occupied so hardly too busy. Waitress said she forgot so we ordered again, this time with food. 25 mins later nothing and another table got their food before ours even though we ordered first. We paid for our coffees and left. Place was almost empty so can only be down to not caring about customers and not prioritising orders properly. Will never go back. Worst service in Southend Hight Street.

We walked in - the place was almost empty. Nobody came over, so we just sat down. Still, nobody came over - so we grabbed our own menus. 5 minutes later, another family came in - were immediately given menus - she then came over to them again after a fe minutes and took their order. We were still waiting - confused... We walked out - genuinely insulting, terrible service.

Stayed overnight at the travelodge, which has no restaurant facilities, went for walk to find somewhere for breakfast, came across the townhouse cafe by chance. The place was spotless and the menu was vast, we then had the best breakfast we've had. Very reasonable and the waitress couldn't have been more helpful. Would definitely recommend.

Just had breakfast here for the first time and was pleasantly surprised! The quality of the food and presentation was really good (salmon Benedict) and the waitress was very friendly and polite. The decor is a bit weird for a new restaurant being honest…but who cares when the food is so good. Will come back to try lunch. You can also sit on a few tables outside if warm enough. UPDATE: Came for a 2nd time for breakfast (24th Sep) and was just as good as the first. Added a photo to show the food and presentation. They were also playing some chilled jazz music in the background this time which I appreciated on a Sunday morning.

We popped in for breakfast as we were in town early - it opens at 8.00a.m. - and had a superb breakfast. The food was fresh, well-presented, tasty and reasonably-priced. A smoothie was excellent and a generous serving. Choices were wide-ranging and included multiple vegetarian and vegan options. Service was professional and charming. We’ll be back.

My husband and I went for breakfast and we were both happy with the food we had ordered. The menu offered variety of dishes and sandwiches for breakfast and many more options of starter, main and side dishes for lunch. Southend High Street definitely needed a place like that to accommodate diners of all tastes. The cafe offers three options for pancake lovers. The pancake dish is something to go for; however next time I would go for the less sweet option. The banana pancake and notella was a bit much for me to digest. My husband ordered the vegetarian breakfast and was quite satisfied with the portion and ingredients. Totally recommend the place.

Good value and generous portion sizes. £9 for a fat halloumi wrap and chips (Turkish style) £13 for a big thick slab of moussaka shiryliev rice and salad, lots of flat bread slices, garlic yoghurt and ezme tomato dip to start. Breakfast and lunch menu available all day. Nice selection of desserts and drinks. Will definitely be back and highly recommend!!!

This place...! Absolutely LOVED it and highly recommend it too. The staff are fabulous and really friendly which makes an immediate impression. The food! DIVINE. I had the veggie moussaka and wasn't disappointed. So, so good! In addition there were some classic 80s tunes in the background which put me in a great place mentally for my solo lunch. Really enjoyed it here and will deffo come back if I'm in the area. I'm told this venture only opened 4 weeks ago so if you're local, get yourself down here. It's awesome!
