The best restaurants in Hullbridge Rochford East of England

Just moved into area, found the pub to watch footie, which was achieved. Small premises, cosy atmosphere, surprised by the entertainment of a guitarist/singer of good quality and enjoyed the performance moreover than the game . Recommended and will reattend with my other half.

I went for breakfast with a friend, arrived at 11am, went to the counter to order and got told that breakfast wasn't be served any longer, even though it states "served till 11.30" So I asked if I could order a sandwich as was told that they couldn't take any food orders as they didn't have the capacity as they still had lots of breakfasts to deliver!!! Also, when and if I could order there would be an hours wait. So my friend and I got up and left. I won't be going back there and I won't be recommending the nursery to others. I would recommend the Hockley Tea Garden instead, we were greeted by a friendly, smiling waitress, all day breakfast on their menu. The drinks and food were delivered in a timely manner

Beautifully decorated, lovely atmosphere. Good and service was excellent.

Staff were so accommodating. Food was plentiful & delicious. Would like more Vegetarian options . Can’t wait to return.

We have always used Lubbards for our Indian food and it used to be outstanding. However, tonight’s food was very poor in comparison, there was just one bag of salad, no raita, and the mixed starters were dry and quite tasteless. To top it all, I asked as I always do for the vegetable curry that accompanies the biriani to be Madras hot, when it was delivered, I had been charged for an extra full size vegetable curry although I had gone through the order twice with the person on the phone! Will not be bothering again.

Great place, plenty of parking, the staff are fantastic

We ordered a take away and I can hand on heart say that it was the nicest, freshest Indian food I have had in a long time. Friendly service, great food. We will definitely be ordering from here again. Thank you 🙏🏻

I'll start with this: the last lot to own and operate this shop were a very tough act to follow. Almost unfair to whomever followed. The previous owners operated in that unique space between 'kebab shop' and 'Turkish restaurant' and all their stuff was amazing – real 'secret sauce stuff' when it came to their meat. Having tried this new shop's offerings a few times, I'd say what we got is aligned back towards what you'd expect from an out-and-out kebab shop. We ordered what we used to order from the previous owners, and it just wasn't the same. I don't want to denigrate a brand-new business just starting out, so please take this review with a pinch of salt as things will probably change as the business matures. But for us, the unique selling point and the reason why we used to buy from this shop on a weekly basis has gone. So for us, it's time to mourn the passing of what was and move on to try and find something to replace it. To end on a positive though, if you enjoy honest to goodness kebab shop food, you'll probably be just fine here. Good luck to the new owners and I hope you make a big success of it all.

Disgusting terrible worst i have ever had, dry burger dry hard chips almost uneatable 4 of us had all the same dry crap food, most not eaten. This used to be very good kebab shop but it has been taken over by new owners. Will never use again .

Poor, overpriced. chip portions very small prices gone up not great service won't be using again shame how hard is it to make decent food.

Had a delicious lunch at the Anchor. There were three of us and each had something different ( cod loin, pork belly and chicken) all loved our food. We then all had pudding which was equally tasty. The staff were all friendly and efficient. View of the garden and river was delightful, beautiful sunny day. Highly recommended.
