The best restaurants in Hamford Tendring East of England

An absolute gem of a place. Lovely staff and gorgeous food. Staff are so welcoming, and the place is spotless. I took my friend yesterday, after the anniversary of the death of her husband. She said it was lovely to see so many happy people enjoying food with family and friends. I highly recommend!

Beautiful exterior and interior and absolutely spotless hygiene levels. Food was cooked to perfection by friendly and welcoming staff, can’t recommend big bird and bean enough it goes so hard.

Don't let the outside put you off. The Essex Skipper is a great pub with excellent service. The owners have put a lot of thought into there pub with a great outside space. Great value.

Condsidering it says under new management but you still have Debbie working there who according to the A Board outside I am afraid thst the food was to say the least Poor We went it there ordered two tuna and cheese wraps and two pots of tea, The tea arrived I poured mine into my cup which I had already milked from a small jug and it curdled.We smelt the jug and it was sour. This was replaced with small milk packets then our supposed lunch of the two wraps came up. There was no Cheese half or even less than a small lettuce leaf a very small slice of tamato each 4 chrisps (not big ones) one slivver of red pepper. It cost £4 pounds each for just the meal which wasnt anything in any way enough to feed a cat a dinner let alone a person the wrap was super small Very dissappointed as I am a local resident I do not think your going to have many customers return again to eat there and indeed I wouldnt even have a cup of tea there again. Can the new managerment who ownes it do something to educate the cook there how to provide adequate and sufficient value for money to their customers. The young man who served us was untra polite a credit to the younger generation and was very obliging . I did not complai at the time even though I was asked by him was everything ok.

Provided delicious ice-creams and gave us a generous discount when they discovered we were on a day trip for Refugees and Asylum Seekers. We will definitely be using they guys in the future for trips to Frinton.
