This is the second time we have been here and the service is absolutely fantastic. The staff are very welcoming and friendly and the food is delicious. I think this place is worth visiting and we'll worth the money. Thank you to all the staff for your kindness and look forward to seeing you again when we are next down here. :-)

Had a good family & friends time in their events room.

Everything was lovely in the restaurant. Staff were attentive and the food was delicious and plenty of it

Good service, very pleasant and helpful staff. Good food and drinks.

Freshly cooked Large Haddock and chips. Just perfect. Fun staff. Busy Saturday evening.

Firstly, i have to say, i have just come on here to leave a review and i am shocked at some of the previous reviews. My wife and i have just returned home from a wonderful evening at The Mayflower. This isn't our first time here but i forgot to leave a review the last time, but this time this place blew us away and i had to. The food and service this evening was top drawer, Jack and Pheobe were rushed off their feet this evening, but handled the restaurant like true professionals with a constant smile on their faces and a professionalism that would put other restaurants to shame. I am only sorry i couldn't meet the chefs and thank them too, as the food was out of this world. This is without doubt THE chinese eat in restaurant in the Clacton/Holland area. Thank you so much guys, we will be returning again and again.

Food here is excellent. We had Sunday lunch. The pork came with a lovely piece of crackling. Very good choice of menu. Staff were very chatty and friendly, although the owners came across as the opposite, quite unfriendly and unwelcoming. The downside is the prices, although still reasonable compared to other local restaurants, are quite a bit higher than given on their website. Many people on here say their online prices need to be updated. I will definitely be going back, and will mention the online prices on my return.

We had dinner at Maffia's during a recent stay in Holland on Sea. Our starters of crab and smoked duck were both tasty but not too large to spoil our appetites. For our mains my husband had a beautiful fillet of halibut in a mussel and cream sauce and I had lobster thermidor with hand made chips. I enjoyed my lobster so much that I pinched the spoon used to serve my husband's vegetables so that I didn't miss a drop of the lovely cheesy sauce and the chips were to die for! We happily finished up with desserts of a blackberry infused creme brulee and lemon cheesecake which were also delicious. Based on our dining experience I would recommend this restaurant as offering a good selection of well cooked bistro style dishes.

Stopped here on my way to London today, amazing coffee and brilliant service. I took a lot of time to pick what I wanted but the girl and the lad there were very accommodating to me. The coffee was made perfectly, better than any of the high street chains like costa and Starbucks. I must praise them for their service as well, not sure on their names but it was the blonde girl and the lad with the black hair. Will definitely be coming back.

The staff were very friendly and the food came fairly fast and all food was lovely.

First and last time ordering food from here🤮
