The best restaurants in Althorne Maldon East of England

We enjoyed the Sunday roast recently , it was very tasty and plentiful, looking forward to making it a regular thing over the coming winter!

What a lovely little find! We were going to go elsewhere, but Essex Highways decided to close off most of the roads out of the Dengie on the same day and roads out were chaos! We actually live in a nearby village and had seen the signs to Manor House, but had never been. Relaxing decor, wonderful welcome and service. Food was great (recommend the smoked salmon bagel) and didn’t have to wait long. Lovely friendly lasses working there, homemade cakes and bread pudding , clean and welcoming….What’s not to like?

Just had wonderful cappuccino and amazing coffee and walnut cake , this place is so so much better than anywhere else locally , a good selection of food and a friendly atmosphere . Highly recommended , pay them a visit and have cake

Absolutely lovely Sunday roast with a proper gluten free option with all works! Was fab to have a gluten free Yorkshire and proper gravy. Felt like a proper home cooked lunch

Clearly, a homemade pie and the ham was freshly cut. Paige was super busy but the perfect hostess for the place. What a cracking pub! Will definitely be back at some point.

Went on Sunday, the three of us. Had not booked as it was a spur of the moment but we were warmly welcomed and accommodated. We each had the roast dinner and a dessert. The food was plentiful and well cooked. Friendly staff, great menu and a good atmosphere. Highly recommended.

Excellent service, although small menu covered everything, did have a specials board nothing on there, but we went mid week. All meals freshly prepared and fresh. I did ask for extras which although not on the menu they accommodated. Fantastic food Good atmosphere, has facility for restaurant to be separated from bar area, hope this is done at busy times. Fantastic thank you

We had the most wonderful afternoon tea and unlimited tea & coffee. I could not recommend On The Latch enough for their friendly service, delicious food and we can’t wait to go back again. Thank you so much x

Absolutely amazing food. First time visiting after reading the reviews here and we wasn't disappointed. We will definitely be returning. Had the ham, egg and chips and is definitely up there with the best we've ever had. Highly recommend.

I have only had a couple of takeaways, but when I collect the restaurant always have a very nice atmosphere and the staff are friendly. From a food perspective for me the portions are not very generous, and there is not as much meat in the portion as other local Indian restaurants. So if they sorted that I would maybe buy from there more.

It's a great spot for happy hour, but parking is limited. The food and atmosphere are nice.

Went here with friends for a Halloween event, great live band and great people and atmosphere, a wonderful example of a local village pub and hotel

Popped in for a cuppa having ridden past so many times and thought how lovely it looked. Inside, spotlessly clean and lovely American Diner decor. Really nicely done! So glad we stopped here. Owner very friendly, made us welcome. We'll worth a visit and I will defo return for something to eat next time! Geoff Grove

Lovely Sunday roast, nice atmosphere and excellent service. thanks Laura for looking after us!

Good customer service and good food. Prawn toast slightly overdone, wasn't keen. But everything else tasted Good. Ready within 10 mins.
