I've not eaten here but I've been told its great food, every time I come to canvey I stop her for a load of drinks, the staff are brilliant and the owner suggest a pint and he was spot on with it

Hi, unfortunately I didn’t order any food. However…the service and atmosphere is absolutely wonderful. The bar lady and man (tall big bloke) are so warm and friendly. Great pub. I feel as if I’m going back to the 80s. The layout is so 80s and guess what? I %ucking love the 80s. I need to visit more than what I do. From one stranger to another…thank you for making me feel so warm and relaxed.

Just had lunch at this pub, all homemade, we all had different meals, all arrived at the same time steaming hot with a smile from the staff. Very chilled and pleasant atmosphere, the drinks at the bar are so reasonable. We had a window table with a view of the estuary, was lovely. Will definitely make it a regular place to visit. Highly recommend it.

I've been to the windjammer maybe a dozen times and never bothered to sing its praise . Each experience has been like a game of , "can this surpass the last " it's not finely decorated and that won't be the attraction . What needs praising is the menu firstly , with a variety of very reasonably priced dishes that exceed pub food expectations . It's attention to detail and full flavour that comes across . The views from the window seats are an accompaniment to the whole experience with cruise liners and freight ships passing along the Thames. Very tranquil . The drinks are , well .... cheap but as good as anywhere else . To sum up its butlins meets Barbados. Try it .

Traditional , yes it is so try . I like ❤️❤️ I don't frequent pubs cos I'm teatotal and haven't been a drinker . However I did try the ale and it was very 👍 good. And they make tea cos I tried the bar snac and bein on the sea front the air is great. I may conclude to visit and it's dog family friendly with clean and pumps serves great Guinness I can recommend. Great for any taste and caters for all .

I only visited here for the first time yesterday. Pub has a 80s feel and I absolutely love the 80s. I’m not really a pub person but just by my first visit I absolutely love this place. Lovely bar lady and tall big dude behind the bar come across as a lovely warm couple. I do love their energy. Customers too seem lovely.

Went here for the first time yesterday. Great Pub feel. Also great customer service too. Lady behind the counter 04/09/23 , fantastic customer service skills greeted me with a big genuine smile and was happy to serve me. Big bloke serving too came across lovely. Other Drinkers had great energy about them too. Pub feels as if it’s still on the 80s and I absolutely love the 80s. The 80s feeling pub is going to keep me coming back. Great energy. Thank you for your customer service.

Visited this pub today after hearing many good things about the food. Can't say we were disappointed. The food was amazing and reasonably priced. The drinks were also good value and the staff very friendly. Free car park on site just across the road from the sea with great view points. Outside seating too which is perfect in the hour weather. Would highly recommend to anyone visiting the Canvey Island area

We visit Canvey regularly every year and visiting the Windjammer a must. Mostly populated by building trades People. Good customers and create a good atmosphere , Im in my seventy's now and a retired Builder so this is ideal for me, Takes me back to the day when there where certain pubs that were regularly used by building trades and they created a jolly lively atmosphere ,sadly these pubs few and far between, Prices very competitive, Beer & Food. The landlord takes great care of his cellar and delivers a cracking pint. Be back soon, Five Star in my Book. J Cullen.

I found the man on the door possibly the manager and maybe his wife very rude. They had a right go at me and then latter my son because we tried to enter without a face masks on. We were not aware of the change of rules. Only the 6 people from two households. They said there was a notice on the door. There are many notices on the door. Ie entry only two meter distance to name the ones I did see We got face masks and then they let customers get up and walk around without face masks and not said a word. When I questioned the lady about it she just huffed. Very arrogant people

I am over 70 years now and in my youth in Brighton we had several pubs we considered to be communal , Where every one knew every one, and all where social drinking friends,not any more for whatever reason. but one still exists in Canvey Island, and every time we visit Canvey the windjammer a must, I really enjoy the comradeship and the friendship of all who attend making it a must and a success socially .A Feel Good Premises J D CULLEN.

The pub itself, is very cosy but I find that certain staff can be a bit opprobrium. Also I find although most locals are nice, some people that seem to spend a lot of time drinking in there have come across derisive to me and my partner. Not the type of people I'd like to associate with. Although most pubs have the few people like that, it's made me want to change the pubs I go to. So I visited the windjammer which I thought was a calmer pub. Only to be once again let down by offensive people. Not just men but women too. I find I have been treated better by staff in all of the other pubs, so although you can't control who walks into your pub, unless they are violent or drunk before entering, I find id rather go to a pub with polite staff.!!!!!!

This used to be my local pub when I lived on Canvey island. I now visit for a daytrip every month or two. Usually we have lunch at the Windjammer. Has a lovely view of the Estuary. Great lunch for only around £5 per person! I would recommend the chilli con carne, with rice and salad. The ploughman's are lovely. Friendly staff, excellent value, clean.

Used to drink (and eat) in here regularly. Moved away from the Island for a 8 years and recently moved back. Lamented over the homemade shepherds pie and triple cooked chips over a pint and an Estuary view to my wife enough times that we decided to pay a visit this lunchtime. It's almost a timewarp. True, not so many customers but the food is still homemade, and the chips are still that lovely triple cooked. Amazing value too - not many places you can get a lunch for 2 and a beer each for £12 - beat that, McDonalds! Think this is going to be a regular monthly outing.

this is the only local pub at the eastern end of the Island, so there is no other local for us as the Jellicoe has closed. Windjammer does a good range of beers , lagers and spirits and like most pubs seems to lose a lot of oeople after 9 pm at night, pleasant bar staff but music and telly a bit too loud for normal conversation. Still better than no pub at all.
