The best restaurants in Wheatley Rochford East of England

Chips under cooked, Curry sauce pot open in bag, sauce everywhere, they blamed driver instead or their second rate plastic containers. £2.49 service charge, what service? 99p delivery charge. Ordered and paid for two picked onions at £1.25 each, they only delivered one but charged for two. When we phoned to complain we were told they could not do anything about it now, you could tell they were not that interested. They said we could have 50% off the next order, what makes them think there will be another order. Paid by paypal so they could have offered a part refund, but they didn't want to do that. Going to try and get paypal to claw back the payment and then pay them an amount that better fits the food and service we received. Its sad when you are simply a number and the poor service you received means nothing to them, they just move on to the next customer. Not good enough, I serve the public and would never dream of leaving one of my customers unhappy...

I have been here a number of times, but not for a while. Under new management. I had a chicken, pesto and mozzarella panini. This was served with a side salad, homemade coleslaw and some crisps. My mum had a tuna mayo and cucumber sandwich also served with a side salad, coleslaw and crisps. Both plates of food came up well presented .. The 2 lady’s that are running the cafe now are friendly and welcoming.. Good service, and nice food so will definitely recommend to friends, and we will definitely be going back ...

Apart from the food being excellent their customer service is great. I incorrectly ordered a Roma instead of a Remo and they switched the pizza with minimal fuss. Would definitely recommend.

Stop off for a drink after visit to the Rayleigh Windmill Service,staff quick to serve drinks Seating plenty of tables and chairs to sit at when I visited mid afternoon on a Saturday Ambience,fine, Tv with horse racing showing,pub populated mainly by Older blokes chatting over a pint,would visit again when back in Rayleigh area.

A great plate full for the money, choose your own breakfast for 75p per item or stick to the set plates. Whatever you choose you shouldn't be disappointed. Food was all cooked fresh so there was a bit of a wait but it was piping hot when it did turn up. Two breakfasts a Mug of coffee and a hot chocolate (with cream and marshmallow) came to just over £15. Very friendly staff with a liking for country and western on the Alexa, but who doesn't like a bit of Johnny Cash. We will definitely be back. Oh and at last a cafe that does black pudding, the only thing missing from the menu is bubble and squeak, but you can't have everything.

should have been delivery not collection when calling to ask if this could be sorted the response was incredibly rude. would not let me explain just very defensive

The worst Costa ever visited, gloomy lighting, gloomy staff, never smile, do not look happy. Short staffed, look like they do not enjoy working at the place. Often do not have what you want. Prime location, should be a flag ship store.

Such good value , very quick and fresh and loverly flavours, would find it hard to fault for the price and quality

Great pub, great staff and definitely the only place to go in Rayleigh.

was told after 20 minutes being late that it will be a couple of minutes. 40 minutes later food arrives cold.

Front of house last night was very quick to convince us the place was rammed just to get a £10 entry fee out of us only to walk in and walk straight back out, absolutely dead - we were one of about 5 people. Very disappointing and mis-leading to the point we didn’t even bother getting a drink.

Avoid on a Sunday morning it's like a children's playground, noisy kids running around. It even has a children's corner with toys...have not seen that in other Wetherspoons. Otherwise great pub.

Food and service was extremely poor. Had to ask when the main meal was coming as we had waited such a long time. When the food arrived it was poor. My granddaughters Lasagna tasted strange, she did not eat it and I had to send my salad back, it was swimming in oil. Offered another option but when asked how long it would take told the other customers would have to be served first…..? So two hours later I left the restaurant without anything to eat. Will never go back.

Attended here one Saturday evening with family. Nicely decorated restaurant and the food was nice, although, yes, the portion size a were on the smaller side, salad doesn’t really cost that much. Service was very slow, only managed 1 round of drinks, no offer of dessert either. Bread was microwaved as it went hard after a few minutes. I asked to pay for gratuity/service by card to which I was told they can’t do it, only restaurant I have ever known that won’t take service/tip by card. I don’t carry cash so couldn’t leave a tip. Which resulted in me getting accosted by a different waiter as we left and abruptly asked if everything was ok, he then rushed over to the table. I can only assume he was aggrieved that we couldn’t leave a cash tip. Not that the service really warranted it. But the passive/aggressive approach is not on. I eat out a lot and always tip via card. I won’t be returning.

cold food every time i’ve been in, lack of food on display and always seem to be replaced last minute. a waste of money when they can’t even keep pastry warm! rude hostile staff who can’t even give a friendly smile. make me want to go to costa instead !!!
