The best restaurants in Brentwood North Brentwood East of England

Cosy cafe- enjoyed lunch with my daughter. Korben was really nice and helpful too. Really nice place. Beautiful decor.

Nice, clean and friendly very helpful. Food tasty and nice to see lots of variety. We don’t all like the traditional . Glad to see them back after they left lakeside.

Got the fried wings, always a hit for me and the family.

Great tasting food, perfectly cooked and perfectly seasoned.

Came on a Saturday night, no booking as we walked past and thought it looked nice Service was good , food wise we ordered the cheesy garlic bread as a starter with some Olives. It was the size of an actual pizza and really delicious. Olives were really nice too The dinners were hit and miss. The risotto was quite watery and wasn't all that if I'm honest but my partner had the bolognese and it was stunning It's quite boujee in there, nice decor to justify the cost but it was lovely and wouldn't stop us coming again

Hiya this demi, the girl who had a complaint about Kenny the ‘head doorman’ i just wanted to put in writing how threatened i felt by this man and how uncomfortable i felt in general. Once my friend had already left the doors this is when she was notified that she would not be allowed back in. Once i disputed the fact that she was not notified before leaving inside of the venue, Kenny became very aggressive and started kicking the door back when i was trying to speak to my friend inside. It almost felt like he was on a ‘power trip’ and started speaking down to me in a very belittling way. he said and i quote ‘if i was your dad i would be ashamed of you’ and that ‘i would never want a daughter as slaggy as you’. his actions let alone his words made me feel so uncomfortable to the point that i didn’t want to return anyway. No other staff members were present at this time, incase he tries to change his story based on other witnesses. This is unacceptable behaviour! I work in and have worked in bars before and never have my security team ever spoken to a member of the public in this way ever before. i am absolutely disgusted and devastated that anyone would ever be spoken to like this, let alone someone who is supposed to be maintaining a level of professionalism. We had a great night at The Merchant and experienced no problem’s before an unexpected and threatening issue occurred between myself and the ‘head doorman’ Kenny. My friends and I have attended the Merchant on may occasions and never had an issue however after this incident, after being aggressively attacked by Kenny, i feel that my friends and i will have to avoid this venue in future.

Had lovely brunch here today with a mate of mine. Service was great, the eggs florentine were beautiful and the coffee was lovely- will definitely return

We stopped by at Merrymeade tea rooms for coffee, tea and cake. We didn’t book but arrived at 11am and got a table straight away (overlooking the garden).

I had a rather disappointing experience at this cafe. As a mother dealing with the challenges and expenses of school holidays, I hoped the animal sanctuary cafe would be a pleasant and reasonably priced option. However, I ended up regretting my decision to dine there as the food and drinks left much to be desired. The kids' beans on toast was decent in taste, but the portion size of just one piece of toast was quite underwhelming. The pizza slice looked appealing, but unfortunately, the toppings lacked flavor, and the dough didn't hold up well, disintegrating as I tried to enjoy it. The vanilla milkshake was disappointing as it tasted bland, lacking any real vanilla flavor. And as for the coffee, it was truly atrocious. Even adding sugar couldn't salvage the taste, and the takeaway cups had an odd smell that didn't help matters. All in all, I would advise against visiting this cafe during your trip to Hopefield. It's better to pack your own food and avoid the disappointment of a lackluster dining experience.

Marked down as so expensive. 5 adults 1 child. 2 drinks each. No starters or desserts £160. The pizzas are good but it's too much cash for Pizzas!

Highly satisfied and good service

Absolutely phenomenal, so much so booked Thailand for our 10year wedding anniversary march, hopefully the food is as good

Staff always friendly and make a good coffee

Order from prezzo from time to time mainly when there is a deal on through one of the many delivery sites. The pizza is always great quality and tasty and they have white pizza Bianco options that I really like. The garlic bread with caramelised onion is always lovely too, this said if we had to pay full price I would buy elsewhere as there are various pizza options locally. But if there is a deal and its the same price I would recommend you give it a try.

Best pub in Brentwood by far! I came in the other day to get food and drinks with my friends. The food was lovely and the service was amazing and friendly. Such a large beer garden outside which was so nice! Had a great night will definitely be back soon and would definitely recommend!
