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

this place is lovely. The food is beautiful. It’s got a great atmosphere.

Wonderful food, we really enjoyed chatting to the owner while we tried out all of the Hungarian specialities on his menu. Highly recommend.

Ordered sushi from Toro 4-5 times now, each time it's well packaged, fresh and really tasty. The vegan options are great, with quite a few different selections. Love it, it's my go to place for sushi delivery.

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

I have just had a great cheese and mushroom fluffy omelette with chips and garden peas. It was very succulent and tasty. I can highly recommend this cafe. Prices are cheap, and great value for money.

Nice restaurant always clean, staff friendly, reminds me of Prosecco with a fresh strawberry every time

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.

Pong was a place that was a spontaneous thing one evening, now is a must do anytime me and my friends go out. The activities there are brilliant from a regular game of ping pong to an extremely entertaining game of beer pong, with some variations with other spirits. The atmosphere of the place is always lively and jubilant, never has there been a time of boredom. The staff are the most down to earth and spectacular hosts, with Nes, Greg, Mark and Tadi always ready to greet you with the kindest smiles, no matter the occasion. I can only wish that everyone, whether living in Southend or just visiting, have the opportunity to go to this amazing place as it truly is one of the best places for all to visit. If I were to have one last night out at any establishment, it would unequivocally have to be Pong. Thank you Pong for treating me and my friends as if we had know you all for years. We all thank you.

My friend and I visited this little gem this morning for a quick coffee, we were so pleasantly surprised how beautifully decorated the coffee shop was, the place was so clean, the owners were so welcoming and kind. We had a taste of their freshly baked banana cake which was divine. I'll be definitely be visiting them more and highly recommend it ❤️.

Great place , such a shame they have been closed for months. I hope they are not gone for good. I think they were last open in march or April . But seem to be gone without as much as a word of goodbye. Very strange

We are a local football team and we visited in 3/11/2024 a lovely business run by really polite staff and also has a wide range of foods to cater for everyone and reasonably priced and I definitely be visiting again for sure 10/10 and also a very clean businesses and lovely hotdogs

First time back at Southend in over five years & noticed this burger place opposite the entrance to Adventure island. Very reasonable price for a delicious ‘Five guys style’ burger. Brisket burger was fantastic. Mini Mac and cheese balls were also nice. Definitely visit again and recommend to anybody down Southend for the day!

The staff are warm and friendly... the cafe is so inviting it draws you on with its design and the friendly owners

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!
