The best restaurants in Downhall and Rawreth Rochford East of England

After shopping at Sainsbury's Rayleigh Weir, we like to pop in for brekkie. Good selection to choose from. Always quick service albeit without being pressurised. Polite and helpful staff. Always worth the little detour on the way home.

On our second visit we were pleasantly surprised that the soup was wonderful. When we visited a year ago, the soup was far to spicy which is why we didn't return for a year.

Great vegetarian options. Everything was really tasty and tasted fresh. Very well priced. Best Indian takeaway I’ve had in Essex! First time ordering and will definitely become our local 🙂

150% Not the best chip shop, can’t get good Cod and Chips here. Tried them several times to give them a chance… but no. OWNERS of this establishment… You cannot expect school kids to cook your customers Great British Fish & Chips, please employ experienced Fish Fryers !!!!

Good value compared to some other pub restaurants in the area.

£5.90 for a slice of cake, good cake, to expensive. No a/c so it was hot and stuffy. Wouldn’t rush back. One chap was ordering a bacon sandwich and it was £7.50

Love this place. Old school Chinese food

Terrible.The last 2 times the chips are almost uneatable.We threw half the portion away because the other half was overcooked and sooo crispy that i was frightened of breaking a tooth.Never again,chris chip shop in Grove road is so much better

I booked my wife’s 60th birthday party here, two months before they cancelled all bookings and keep all the deposits. Please do NOT book this place they ruined birthday party’s and weddings

We visited in December one lunchtime there was around 6 of us and we were the only people in here however not sure if lunchtime is a really busy time for them. Food was really nice and from what I can remember wasn't all that fast but not slow either, it was nice to have a cooked meal made for you as no doubt we all had something different from the menu - which wasn't set for Christmas which was nice for this time of year.

I had prebooked a table online for the outside seating area. We were allowed to select the table to sit at. The three staff members working were polite, friendly, and welcoming. It was fairly busy at the time we arrived, so the staff had a lot to do such as cooking and serving. It did take 15 minutes from sitting to receive a menu and again roughly 10/15 minutes to get our order taken. Though, I do understand the staff had a lot to do, with there being so few of them. Saying that, the staff were always smiling and happy to help customers. Prices for drinks are reasonable, but I feel the food was slightly on the expensive side for the amount you got. The paninis we ordered tasted delicious and had a good amount of filling. They were accompanied by some doritios and a small portion of salad. It would have been nice to have the option to choose whether you wanted doritios or ready salted crisps, as I don't like doritos. So I was practically paying £8 for a panini. We also ordered pancakes for dessert. These were of a good size, and you were given 2. There were a good amount of toppings, and it was also served with whipped cream. The pancakes were tasty! All food was served promptly. There are two covered areas outside and a few tables which aren't undercover. They have decorated the outside area nicely with flowers and fairy lights, which gives the place a nice touch. They also have a cabin that you can sit in, this looked pretty and cosy. This was my second time visiting here, and both visits were good. The staff working here are doing a great job.

not impressed at all, first order and will never order again from them. website was good, got our fodo about 40mins later and they had forgot the crispy mushrooms, chesse sticks were cold as were the chips, so i thought id eat what we could then call them afterwards. dopey girl on the phone talking to the manager but i could here her, and the manager in the background saying "what does he want me to do now, its 30 mins after the food has been delivered'' i said i wanted to eat my luke warm food before calling. he said i will give them to you next time, i said no i want a refund and he said have to send the driver with cash, all 3.25 of it! amaziing customer service. first and the last order i still have the taste of grease in my mouth. spent jsut under forty pound and feel ripped off with it, its bascially the burger van food on the side of the road. avoid or you will end up like me
