The best restaurants in Leigh Southend-on-Sea East of England

Popped along one evening. Found a space in the road outside. They have a great menu with lots of ingredients. You can make your own or go for one of the set waffles. We had lots of fun decided what to do. I opted for ice cream a mixture of vanilla, smarties, chocolate sauce etc while the rest of the family went for bubble waffles. There were a few tables outside to eat. Everything tasted delicious

The place is amazing very friendly staff friendly to talk to good price for everything quick and it a good place for a lunch break

will go there again service great food fantastic Went with family good service friendly great food all around great place good value

Nestled in Leigh on sea we have truly a hidden gem. With great food, amazing service and fantastic prices I really was blown away. Leigh has a great coffee scene and for me Tea and Tiffin encompasses the very best of the local area. A perfect blend of a family friendly cafe whilst being able to cater for even the fanciest of coffee connoisseurs it can really do it all.

Introduced to this lovely place by a friend and it’s just lovely. Popped in for a quick coffee and a bagel- really friendly and I feel comfy popping in on my for a quick coffee and snack!

My boyfriend and I shared a gluten free blonde slice. I have struggled with getting gluten free products from bakeries due to my anxiety around the cross contamination however the display is kept completely separate and sealed when taken away from the shop. My boyfriend is not gluten free and said the blonde was so good that he didn’t believe it was gluten free! We have also had a birthday cake (gluten free) which was also delicious

Love this place, good service friendly chat. Good donuts and coffee and always end up buying some cool skate clothing. Avoid the chains and support local.

I would love to say a massive thank you to Reni , she is always kind and makes a good hot latte. :)

We came to buy shellfish today. I have always really loved shellfish. Bought winkles and shrimps, would have loved to buy much more, but be back another day as all looked to appetizing. Staff friendly and helpful. Highly recommend. I plan to return within the week.

Fantastic food, great atmosphere and genuine people. I came here for dinner with my partner and ended up chatting with the owner and chef who has such a passion for every dish on the menu. Such a nice genuine guy. All other customers were so friendly and overall this is just a fantastic hidden gem. Definitely give it a visit!

Amazing! Incredibly fresh food, very friendly service and more than reasonable bill after one of the best meals I’ve enjoyed in years. Get yourself here!

A good option for healthy food. A few options to choose but not lots of variety. Try the hot beverages, they're good. Most of the food is gluten free and the juices are really good! Highly recommend

This was my first visit to Grate and I absolutely loved it. Well priced, great tasting toastie (cheese & home cooked ham) and a chilled vibe, away from the bustle of broadway. Will definitely return.

A great space for a girlie brunch. The food was just amazing. Magic Monkey had a fab atmosphere and very friendly staff.
