The best restaurants in St James Tendring East of England

A very friendly and welcoming pub

A lovely place to enjoy a delicious home cooked lunch, sandwiches or home made cakes at reasonable prices in pleasant surroundings and lovely welcoming staff. We always look forward to going there when we have to visit Clacton hospital as it is just across the road. Do give it a try!

I’m new to the area, had been in a few times, the food was nice, queuing for a coffee was a first for me, nice place everything was fine, went in the second time asked for poached eggs? Felt like I’d hit a nerve? I was told “we don’t do em”. My friend was shocked, he actually said “a cafe that don’t do poached eggs?” I can understand the we are too busy to faff about, are they not really 100% cafe people? I just thought they wanted a. Easy life? Queue for coffee get your own cutlery, give me an apron I’ll cook it as well!! Shame really could be SO MUCH BETTER! See if it’s improved this summer? It appeared there’s all walks of life uses this cafe maybe it’s not just me who has a gripe with this CAFE. PS I’m not slating the food.

Our Sunday local, great place great staff ( mind you, the cakes should be £1 less ) I recommend this place for anyone up near the Martello

Lovely food and servers Tina and Andrew are amazing, always smiling and nothing is too much trouble. Will definitely be a regular visitor. Great place to eat, lovely atmosphere too and right by the beach so you can also sit outside and enjoy the weather.
