The best restaurants in Maldon East of England

Was meeting here to discuss some arrangements needed a quiet spot with plug - team went out of their way to accommodate us -- lovely food and lovely service - very calm and relaxed atmosphere

First class traditional Indian food. Everything we ordered was delicious. Far superior to the Westernised style of food that is offered in most other restaurants. Service was friendly and helpful, with the owners spending time with us explaining the dishes and how they made them. We felt properly welcomed and looked after. Will definitely be returning to try the menu of the month.

Took delivery; helped in ordering as needed; delivered in time although we live a little away. Food was good in quality and quantity. It is a good change of taste from usual restaurants and takeaways. Felt it could have been better without food colour and with less oil added.

Can never fault them. Always friendly and always consistent with their food. And I've tried a handful of different things from their menu. If you haven't tried their new menu, you have to try their smoothies. Their mango smoothie tastes like summer and is my new addiction.I often get their stuff to take away and am never disappointed

If there’s one thing I know from my first-class days, it’s how to spot top-tier service and great food—and the tapas evening at Cap & Feathers in Tillingham did not disappoint. Four of us touched down for a night of food and fun, and we were in for a treat! Every table was packed, and yet the service was smooth, with friendly staff and that fire roaring away, adding the perfect cosy touch. Now, onto the food: prawns, chilli chicken, beef, and a paella that made us want to stay grounded for more. Those dishes were the stars of the night, bursting with flavour and seriously good value. It’s not every day you find a menu that matches the quality you’d expect at 35,000 feet! A special shout-out to Dave, the chef, who came out for a chat, making sure everything hit the spot. It’s those personal touches that make all the difference. And with the music and buzzing atmosphere, it felt like a full-on fiesta—no turbulence here! Honestly, it was an evening where everything came together perfectly—great food, great company, and even better service. I’ll definitely be booking another seat at this culinary flight!

The seafood shack now accommodates for non seafood lovers by offering freshly cooked baguettes with a choice of filling •carved ham •cheese •chicken mayonnaise. These need to be pre ordered by 11am on the day or phone up during the week to get your order in ready for the weekend!

A lovely little pub off the beaten track. A nice welcome from the landlady and a superbly kept pint of Abbot Ale. Lots of cat memorabilia around the old wooden beamed pub. A great find!

I prebooked by email .. communication was brilliant. Service very good and amazing bacon sandwich. Definitely recommend. We’ll 100% come back.

Take away last night was absolutely amazing! Tasty and good value delivered within the time scheduled! It was a big order but every dish was so good! Would definitely recommend 😊

it's something of an effort to get to Native but that's all part of the experience. The food is unlike anywhere else we've been. Every dish was delicious and original. Native say they use lots of locally sourced and foraged ingredients and it tastes like it. The service is great too. Taking a boat back to our car certainly made for a memorable evening.

I ordered my food online. Very straight forward. Was then offered a voucher to get £15 off. Amazing. I had to go and pick up my food. Shame no delivery service offered. Food was ready when I arrived. I did not receive the correct dips that I selected. But not a problem.

Called in on way home from town with my son to get something to eat. Very friendly staff good size portions tasted great nothing not to like. Will go again

I went to Munchies for the first time yesterday based on a recommendation by a friend. Free parking is available before the barrier to the car park, it has a sign that says free parking for munchies customers. They have table and bench seating outside as well as a cabin with seating inside. Both with lovely views over the marina. The ladies who run it are very friendly and very nice. The menu is vast. Evening from breakfast to brunch to lunch to dinner. It’s good old fashioned English food. We went at lunchtime I had a ham & cheese roll with chips and my partner had a toastie. We both shared the salt and pepper chicken (which I highly recommend) the prices are good under £10 each for food and a drink. This is a great place to go, have some food and sit at the water’s edge and watch the world go by, they have a great children’s menu too.

Absolutely amazing place with great food and friendly staff. My girlfriend is coeliac and they catered for her very well
