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

10 of us visited for dinner last week. Holly our waitress was fantastic - she couldn’t have done anymore to make us all feel welcome and cater to everyone’s requests - thank you!! The food was also great, the pizzas are delicious and we’d all highly recommend the pistachio tiramisu! We will be back!

Great staff and food, Prawns and Sunday roast best in Leigh.

Me and my partner come here very often and love it friendly staff and beautiful decor

As an italian customer I can say they do the best expresso in Essex! Highly recommended.

First time at this great Italian Restaurant. Great food and service, but youvwill need to bookm

Been here a few times for my daughter's birthday as she loves the steak. Wonderful meal and friendly atmosphere. Would definitely recommend and be coming again.🎉😋🍷

Brilliant food, brilliant service, great atmosphere, great value. Would absolutely come again.

This is honestly the best restaurant we've been to in years! The food was delicious with very generous serving of gravy and beans for a more than reasonable price! Our server (a lady with dyed hair and possibly in her 20s) was super kind and went beyond her job giving us other vegan recommendations and was so lovely to talk to. Only wish we lived close so we could visit here more often! Wouldn't mind if the prices were higher as it is so good!

What a lovely family run place. Food excellent, service was great and a nice friendly atmosphere. We will come back.

Great food, fantastic service and a good vibe - love it here!

Food very nice and staff friendly and funny.Atmosphere was quiet when I was there but a band on later which would have been better for me but had to leave urgently

Great selection of vegan and vegetarian main courses. Some really unusual dishes with great flavours! Average spend around £30 for a main course, rice and a couple of drinks.

Recommend booking. Good service Dog friendly Inside and outside seating areas. Varied menu including dog menu and a vegan / vegetarian specific menu

I have been to stop the world before and had a good experience however I was disappointed with my experience today, me and my partner came in for brunch it was busy but no busier than usual, I ordered a smoothie which I was disappointed with as it was warm when I got it so not very enjoyable and then we waited an hour for our food to come, which I just think is way too long especially for breakfast and we only ordered scrambled egg on toast and avacado on toast, didn’t get an apology for our wait or anything really so didn’t have the best experience

Another delicious meal at the Bistro, as always beautifully cooked and presented. Brie and cranberry was excellent, as was the tomato soup. Sadly, couldn't manage to eat a dessert as we were so full!! The staff were lovely and attentive, but we missed Gjovan's smiling face. Look forward to next time!
