Wharf Hotel in Thurrock

Found this place on a recommendation from a fellow trucker. 10 minutes walk from purfleet truck wash. Well worth it. Food was spot on and a good choice of beers. Will definitely be back when I'm next in the area. Great greeting from the barman. The pub has character. It's nice to find a traditional British pub. Well recommended to all.

Fantastic food, lovely people, chat with the chef. A really great experience. Thank you

Food took over an hour to arrive, however staff picked this up and gave us a free drink! Food was worth the wait though

Good times to have fun night out with music too my ears

Just had a banging roast beef dinner! Definitely be coming back again, toilets were clean and smelled lovely! I can’t find a fault loving the decore too! Well done to its lovely friendly staff and management 👏🏻👍🏻

The food is amazing, staff very friendly would highly recommend.

My beautiful partner and I came here for our first date after meeting randomly while walking our dogs along the Thames, we had a warm, welcoming and thoroughly enjoyable evening. The food is incredible, the staff are amazing, the events are hilariously entertaining. It is an absolute privilege to keep coming back and enjoying our date nights here…next stop is psychic evening on 7th November at 7.30pm Hope to see you there

Sad day 26 th October our mum passed away and the family meet up at the wharf hotel to say goodbye we arrive lunch time for drink and stayed for lunch we had Thai curry would recommend lovely seating area and the staff and locals where all very friendly

Nice environment, friendly staff and reasonable pub food... Update: went for lunch today and have to say very good again, staff service was good and friendly also good pub food, we will be back....

Had a lovely meal here and the owners and staff are really friendly and helpful and nothing is too much trouble for them. I would highly recommend this pub and restaurant.

Went to the Wharf pub today and what a great day we had as a family. Firstly, the staff were extremely friendly and welcoming which created a lovely atmosphere. The food was fantastic, definitely best we have had in a while. It was very fresh, home cooked Thai food. We will definitely be returning and recommending to other friends and family.

Have been here a few times and think I need to review this marvellous pub and restaurant. The owners are friendly, even remember my name! The bar staff are friendly, even the customers are chatty! The food is very good and if a high standard. This pub stands on the bank of the River Thames with a public bar, a garden as well as outdoor seating and a small restaurant with two very good chefs. It is an old building completely renovated and restored. I have had many happy days and evenings here and would definitely recommend a visit if you live locally or are passing through Grays Thurrock.

Food was amazing. Cliff was such a nice friendly man and kind, the advice and recommendation on what to order was perfect the pie was so nice.

Banging home made food, lovely hosts & a great location. Absolute bargain with the prices, I'll be back regularly for sure! The plants everywhere are a nice touch too.

Absolutely banging food - I've tried a few bits on the menu - the lasagna is my all time favourite, all the food is homemade and so cheap for the quality. I've spent years searching for the perfect lasagna and I've finally found it 😋 the hosts are lovely and I love the plants. Highly recommend

Our favourite pub..couldnt wish for a better service and the food is always awesome, extremely good value..the Thai green chicken curry is do die for!

Came here on a Sunday afternoon, welcomed by a smiley chubby man in glasses who is the owner.. Because it was our first time here he bought me a drink and supplied a bowl of water and dog biscuits for our pooch.. Some really friendly customers and locals, has an open fire on cold days and daily happy hours- food is great too..!! (suggest the Thai Green Curry). Highly recommended..!!

Lovely pub , well decorated, super friendly staff and great service. Food is amazing and entertainment is good.

Great little get away place off the beaten track

Excellent service quality good great place to be.

Not what it once was. I used to go here as a student years ago. On the sea wall but so built up now. The pub is very expensive - two glasses of soft drink were £6. Nice blast from the past but wouldn’t go back.

The food was lovely staff really helpful and making sure everything was to your liking. Could not falt it , l will definitely go back ,

Visited The Wharf today for lunch with our friends. The 2 girls behind the bar were superb! Full of banter and really friendly. As soon as we arrived they explained that there would be a long wait for food as they only had 1 chef. As the food is really cheap I was expecting pre cooked pub grub. We had to wait an hour for it to arrive, but when it did.... boy was it worth the wait! 2 of us had the basic chicken curry (extra hot) with rice and a side of fries. Best pub curry I've ever had! The other 2 had the fish and katsu curry which they liked. Thoroughly recommend this pub.

Decent pint in a lovely old boozer. Very friendly staff

Lovely pub, friendly helpful staff, great food and great idea to have tickets for watching the euros final.

Delicious fish & chips ☺️ nice atmosphere

Jodie was brilliant, good food and great service

Nice pub and great beef burgers and at a good price

Great all round good, value for the money

Been here for food lots of times and each time it has been delicious! Roast dinners are amazing! Great staff, very friendly! Events are also very fun!

Nice place. I just need some fresh paint and nice air freshener

Popped in for a lunch, nice British menu with all the favourites, Toad in the Hole, Fish n Chips, Burgers, Lasagne, garlic bread etc.. I had the lasagne, home cooked style was delicious, served with skin on fries, and coleslaw, plus garlic bread, lovely job! My friend enjoyed his Toad in the hole too, great portions and perfectly cooked.

Nice, pet friendly pub by the River Thames.

Nice pub by the River Thames. Pet friendly Nice drinks and food. Free parking.

Accidentally purchased a ticket for NYE that I immediately requested a refund for as I realised this was in fact the wrong venue. The refund was rejected depsite requesting it straight away

Had mothers day there yesterday lovely food great staff reasonable prices.

Me , my partner and friends have eat here many many time, always a friendly welcome from all members of staff, I would recommend eating at the wharf, the entertainment is always amazing.

Had a Sunday roast here last week, delicious home cooked meal, friendly atmosphere and very reasonably priced. Will definitely come back for more.

Stopped for some lunch on a Saturday afternoon walk down the river. Really friendly atmosphere, Jodie was so lovely and helpful. Chef was also amazing, the toad in the holes were stunning. Food and drinks all very reasonably priced. Will definitely return

We booked a table for 4 for a Sunday roast, and what can we say one of the best roast dinners we have had from start to finish. The roast potatoes and Onion gravy were excellent, the whole meal and experience there was wonderful. Compliments to the chef for wonderful food. We will be visiting again.

We booked a table for 17 with one days notice and the staff and owner could not have been more helpful. Food was fresh, home made and delicious and the atmosphere was homely. The table was beautifully decorated. We all had a really lovely time and will be back!

It’s a beautiful place by the river side where you can go with your friends or family or work colleague ! Really lovely and cozy place ! #dreamy

A GREAT little local pub that has many incarnations over the years. Always a friendly crowd and a great location by the river for a pint in the sunshine. The Tuesday night pub quiz is a good launch and the staff are always friendly and helpful. The selection of drinks is good, with some nice beers and a good selection of gins for those who prefer something a bit stronger! Many years ago (2001) my 5 a side football team used this as our home pub and would gather after games for a post match analysis and a couple of carb rich pints to recharge our tired bones!

Food service ain't exactly quick service but foods OK...

Food was amazing, home cooked. I will be back. Shout out to the lady that cooks it was lush. Thai green curry, you nailed it!

We visited the wharf pub for the first time as we have recently moved to the area. We was served by Beth who seemed very welcoming and friendly. Unfortunately there was a lot of items on the menu that were unavailable at the time but I enjoyed a Thai curry which was made nice and fresh and was very tasty. My husband enjoyed the burger and chips and we also had some sides too. We wasn’t happy with one of the starters we ordered so they offered us something else which was fine. Overall a lovely pub that we would recommend and we would be visiting again. Great customer service, food and drinks 👍🏼

Historic old riverside pub. The wooden furniture in the beer garden is in very poor condition, the whole area could do with a renovation and tidy up. There is plenty of outside seating and a large car park. Very slow bar service during busy times. Its a good place to have a drink and watch the boats go by if you are tall enough to look over the sea wall.

The staff was awesome. We had a good time talking with Beth and other members in the pub. The drunk we had was good, unfortunately the oven was down so we didn't stay to order food. We might try to come back later, but we had fun for the short time we were there

I liked it be near the Thames where I had a walk on the riverside pavements. Good for meditation and contemplation.

Sad to say I was very disappointed. Went there as a memorial for our dear friend who passed away a year ago as it was her local and she liked to go to their Quiz night. Quz was great 1. I was given the wrong drink. 2. My daughter's dinner order was forgotten. As we are unlikely to go back there the free meal did not compensate the memory of our lost friends enjoyment of her local pub.

We’ve been visiting this pub for years. The pub has seen its peaks and troughs. As of writing this I feel the pub is in a deep whole. Putting it delicately, the clientele seem more interested in shoving white powder up their shnoz and fighting (attempting to harm each other with their cars as an example). The culture and atmosphere of any establishment is the remit of those with the power to make a change. I’ll be voting with my feet and my wallet. How things change for the better and don’t get worse.

After renovation I was expecting more but unfortunately is the same s...

Dobry browarek, miła obsługa. Można płacić kartą

I've known The Wharf for a very long time. Many a tale could be told of back in the day and it certainly has changed to meet the demands of the locals in this day and age. Pubs like The Wharf will always be there to cater for our needs and we need to support them to preserve the facility.

Bar staff efficient helpful friendly. Angus burger cooked to perfection

Excellent food 😋 real hidden gem in Grays thank you

Awesome night at the Wharf, fantastic service from Jodie and Scarlet. Can't wait to go again!

Nice pub great atmosphere but what a crap pint If your a lager drinker then stick to the bottles.same price for half the drink but at least it will have some life to it.Stay clear of the draught lager

Was told about this pub from others. So, I gave it a go. What a great little place it is. Good view of Thames. Enjoyed myself emensly. Brilliant.

Real ale and food can't beat that

A listed building so it’s decked out with low beams and wooden floor etc . There are two bars as well where the pub is split in half which takes me back to my youth when most pubs had a saloon bar and a public bar , one of them ( saloon bar I think ? ) being slightly more salubrious where the couples would hang out and the other where the drinkers would congregate. The food is cheap and home made by the landlady which is not something you come across everyday . I had the ham egg and chips for £5 a perfect size meal for me on my exercise walk along the Thames washed down with a soda and lime , lovely ! They have quiz nights on Monday and karaoke Thursday with a dj or live music most saturdays so plenty going on . There are tables outside if the weather is nice with a view of the Thames twenty yards away or so . Definitely worth calling in for a beer and a plate of food

Staff are friendly and efficient and on a nice warm day its great for a cold beer to watch the world gl by

Very accommodating and friendly staff who made us and our dog feel very welcome. Delicious great value food. Thank you for a memorable and enjoyable visit. 😊

The Wharf is a wonderful pub. Very underrated, it's a hidden gem in Grays. I recommend people give it a try. I also find the staff to be helpful and friendly.

This updated review is for the recently reopened The Wharf pub. My friend and I no longer go into that pub, after they threw my friend out for no reason. He was just minding his own business, drinking his pint, when someone came over to him and asked him to leave. We haven’t been there since. And I’ve heard that they have a habit of asking people to leave for no reason.

Came here after a less than pleasant experience at a nearby pub. Good beer and food. Will definitely return when I am next in the area.

Thoroughly recommend. Been here only once a while ago, when we visited a long-time-no-see former colleague. Nice, clean place, good atmosphere; it wasn't too crowded, so could hear each other 😄 They also have a good selection of drinks to choose from.

Pub a bit rough around the edges, would be lovely with a bit of TLC. Sunday roast was lovely, just practice on your yorkshires...

Went there last weekend. It was cold inside. Left my coat on . Won't be going back.

Watched the rugby there between Wales v England as a Welsh man made to feel welcome. Good beer as well 👍

Have just had some delicous food at the wharf pub, grays. For anyone who hasnt tried lomi yet get yourself down there, it is out of the world. Most tastiest dish ive had in a long time. Excellent staff exellent food very friendly all round great place.

Great pub, excellent beer. Still doing well. Lots of music/disco events

As a family we think this pub is great. I bring my dog here every week as the staff are so friendly and look after the customers. The service here now is one of the best around, the ladies behind the bar know their stuff. Keep it up

Love cliff and Olivia and the work they have done on this pub.... the food is always fresh and lovely... and that banana bread (OMG) always feel welcome and never have a problem with customer service... always willing to listen to ideas and always try different things... just need that snooker table now :)

Love this pub the food is amazing the NEW staff are fantastic and welcoming..the weekend entertainment is fantastic.. close to a children's park aswell lovely place to take the family..always feel safe with my little ones..the only local I visit and ever will visit...just need that snooker table or room as mentioned and charge by the hour and you'll be even greater....trust me there's nothing about snooker wise :) much love to my 2nd family

I visit here often....today I visited with my uncle in law also a chef with his own pub....we loved the food, we loved the company and the surrounding ambience....I see this pub as my local my favourite and my family 💙 highly recommend to anyone

Lovely little local pub! Staff always friendly, drinks and food always great :)

Friendly staff and good atmosphere. The band was exciting, too. I will be looking out for more live music, here

Got a do your bit for historical memories

What a brilliant pub with incredible staff. The chips were very tasty as well! Highly recommended.

Good range of cask beers served by friendly staff

Better decor than previously and friendly staff but food needs to either step up or go back to basics. Menu looks great but execution is disappointing. Halumi fries were rubbery, Ramen noodles were yuck. I have better Ramen noodles at home. Piri piri fries were nice, chicken balls were drier than Falafel, which are normally drier than the desert! Should've had burger and chips off the World Cup Menu. The Wharf is still an old favourite of mine, especially in the summer but will need to think again before ordering food.

I visit weekly, newly refurbished traditional Riverside pub. Good food.

Great beer great service great food. Thanks

Nice place, not busy but still took over an hour for a plate of nachos lol

Had a lovely lunchtime meal today. Thai green curry for me and chicken burger for my friend, followed by desserts of apple pie and cheesecake were so tasty. Great setting too. Will definitely return.

Very friendly and delicious food. Will be back again.

Nice little pub and very affordable

Very good wholesome food. Good service. The only thing to let it down was the loudness of the music.

Lovely friendly little pub, had a drink and sat on the sea wall watching the world go by, very nice food too

A great pub with friendly and helpfull staff. Looking forward to my next visit.

Lovely pub on the bank of the River Thames. There's a huge parking lot. The staff is friendly, the beef hamburger was great and at the weekend it's a great place to watch match with your friends and family.

Amazing staff, good food and really nice place to hang out after a nice walk!

Super atmosphere and lovely food.

Locals pub. Good for outdoor drinking by the Thames Delta

Lovely staff. Good food and service.

Extebsive menu and reasonable - ale was good. Not asatomospheric as it was many years ago but it is pleasantly light and airy in comparison.

So nice to be able to to The Wharf pub again, new landlord has started on re- vamping the place. Toilets upgraded and very clean. This time we only had cider and well filled sandwiches, but will return for a meal.

Very friendly nice atmosphere

Went in to use the loo ended up staying for few hours great staff amazing food brilliant with the kids deffo recommended can't wait to go back 😀
