The best restaurants in Tendring East of England

A great selection for breakfast with the staff being really attentive and happy! cant beat a good sosig roll thats for sure

Long waiting time for an order, only two people from the staff. Saturday, 1 p.m., quite a lot of customers and a long waiting time for an order is very discouraging to return. Toilet out of order.

Nice breakfast and warm atmosphere. Thanks Denise.

We going as a family and we order our dinner we are short one portion of chips and I don't need Remind them that they are a chicken shop I going to a chicken shop and I purchased an extra piece of chicken with my dinner and I asked for a thigh a side breast And then they give me a tiny piece of surely if I want to buy a piece of chicken and I specify what I would like I should be sold If a customer would like to go into a shop to purchase something and be specific to requirements, then he should be sold what he thought he was buying

This is a nice pub, friendly staff. Really nice lady serving called Laura really nice and chatty lady. Food was great. 👍

Despite a dreadful experience on our last visit with our family we decided to try again as we have been dining here for 30 years. We came with our family for my husband’s birthday, and It was once again very disappointing. Service was very slow but staff were pleasant. The food was not good at all, some meals were inedible and returned. Our bill was adjusted but it was very expensive for what we had. A total disappointment from start to finish.

everything fine as usual but didn't get a drink despite having ordered one

One of the best chip shops in Clacton and I’ve tried quite a few over the years I’ve lived here. Never had a bad meal, a greasy one, always nicely cooked and the family who run it are lovely. Try it, you won’t be disappointed.

Food would of been good as usual if not for driver. Couldnt find us, then delivered wrong food. By time the food arrived, it was cold.

brilliant ..great fresh food and milkshakes 100% ...

I've eaten here a few times and it has been good. When I visited today, a customer was telling the front of house how bad the food was, and I ignored that, due to my previous experiences, however, I should have taken note because the hotel has decided to employ an incompetent chef. If this hotel wants me to spend money there, they need to employ competent staff. They haven't. I won't eat there again. Ever, and you shouldn't either. You've worked for your money, and spending it should be in a place that respects your hard earned. Boycott this sham of a restaurant.

Ordered chicken donor for delivery for 19.15 and it came 35 mins earlier than asked . Not too sure if it was owner that delivered but I'm sad to say delivery guy was a bit off putting sorry I don't judge on appearance but he wasn't very inviting to food delivery it was off putting for first time customer. Food good but would have been better if hot and not Luke warm although lots of it I couldn't eat pitta as dry, hard . Sorry but won't be returning as first time customer

food not great and has given me food poisoning not happy 0 stars

Such a shame, I visited Frinton with my mum today for her birthday, the sun was shining and it was a beautiful day! We wanted to grab some lunch before heading down to the beach so we went into this little cafe. At about 12:50, we ordered an egg and cress sandwich, a tuna and onion ciabatta toastie, a Diet Coke and a cappuccino. After about 10 minutes we received our drinks, the cappuccino was served in a teacup so was quite small, and the can of Diet Coke came with a small glass. 10 more minutes passed and our food nowhere to be seen… gave it the benefit of the doubt and some more time passed, I asked the lady behind the counter if ours was coming and she said we were next… 3 further plates of food were served and another 20 minutes passed and we were fed up waiting, 45 minutes for a sandwich is absolutely ridiculous! The lady making the food said ‘everyone came at once’ which I imagine is pretty common when you own a cafe and serve a lunch time menu… we got up to pay for our drinks and leave the food that after 45 minutes we still had not received! And all of a sudden it was being presented to me at the till… I said we didn’t want it anymore because of the wait and was offered to take it away which we did… I paid £14.80 for two very average take away sandwiches… avoid this place at all costs! They did take our drinks off the bill, but frankly that wasn’t good enough.
