The best restaurants in Thurrock East of England

We was the only ones there on a sunny afternoon in August!, empty, dark & uninviting & stuck in the corner of the restaurant. Just 8 finger sandwiches & 2 tea plates of the same cakes that was obvious ready for the wedding that day, no scones, tarts, sausage rolls etc & given 2 white MUGS to help ourselves from the vending machine, then left alone, we had to ask them back as vending machine not working, no tea pot etc. Definitely not enough staff & definitely not worth £31!! How they call it an afternoon tea!. . I refused to pay. Thankfully we was at a wonderful event there in the evening - food not supplied by them!.

1st time I have tried sainsys and was not disappointed, the pies are huge and filled to bursting point, mash was lovely and so was the liquor. Ordered and collected couldn't find a parking space so it was brought out to my car thank you for that. Will defiantly be going back for more. Didn't have time to take photos, it was demolished as soon as it was on the plate lol

The ship pub has a special place in my heart! It is a family run pub with a very welcoming atmosphere. Every weekend there is unreal entertainment as well as mid week quizzes. The food is always outstanding and I honestly will not go anywhere else for a drink.

This was our second and last time going to Chicktopia. The first time was just after they opened and there were some service issues, but the food was good and so I forgave the teething problems. I regret my forgiveness. Today we ordered from the machines, which were clearly malfunctioning, but with no explanation we ploughed on. The only person serving (remember this was a busy Saturday lunchtime!) was young and certainly not well-trained in dealing with the public. When the machines failed to register our order (and everyone else ordering at the same time) he resorted to taking a photo of the order and taking that through to the kitchen. All this without a word to us, let alone an apology. We waited over 20 minutes for the food, with more and more people gathering behind us. In all this time no staff offered any welcome to people arriving or apologies to those waiting. When I asked the 'manager' what was going on and asked him to explain things to us he just said 'it's all fine now'. I understand a computer malfunction, I do not understand the lack of communication. I had plenty of time to write an email of complaint to the company as none of the staff were talking to me. When we finally got the order it was missing the sandwich. I felt so frustrated. When I went back to query it I had to wait another 15 minutes. Again no apology, no explanation. Since coming home and reading the previous reviews I have realised we didn't receive our sides (Texas toast and Louisiana biscuit). It's such a pity - the food is decent, but the staff are so poorly trained. There is no way I could recommend it, or return myself.

CASHLESS AVOID!!! No signs up ordered pizza went to pay and its card only. Then had issues with the card reader saying it might not work. Seriously rethink this policy as when the Internet goes down you can't serve anyone!!! Pizza was ok not worth the calories tbh. Won't return will stick with local independent places that accept cash

Great battered sausage but the chips in the chip roll were awful, rock hard, dry & tasted funny, not going back there again 😬

Got a takeaway from here last night , what a disappointment , cold bbq spare ribs with no meat , s/s chicken balls were off you could smell the eggs were off in the thick soggy batter. Thought it might be nice to try a different takeaway and wished I hadn’t bothered , I will not be returning!!!!!

They delivered to the wrong address when told they shouted at me and said there was nothing they can do about it had to sort it myself the food was inedible and cold by the time it was sorted will never use them again only giving a star because I have to

Our default Indian takeaway, reliably good . Used only one other Curry house in the last 18 months. And good value too !

I was extremely impressed by the warm atmosphere and the friendly customer service of this restaurant. What topped it was the well cooked food and I am so pleased the Jerk chicken was well seasoned!!

Took my kids for a day out to Grays beach. The manager/owner was very rude to her staff, who looked no more than 14/15 years old. I was quite concerned for their safety as they were preparing and frying the chips in the big deep fryer..like I said they looked quite young. When the manager could see that I wasn't happy with the way she was barking orders at them, she tried to laugh it off. I could see that the kids working there were not happy. The things are over-priced, better to pack your own snacks if you want to spend a day Grays beach.

Absolutely gutted £45 worth of food down the drain was cold tasted disgusting and worse of all wasn’t even cooked properly first and last time I use these.

How can you as a pizza take away run out of pizza dough?! Then u call to ask for alternative option.. which I gave (burger, chips) they confirmed it will be sorted. 40 mins later u bring the food and it was the wrong order and you bring me cold wings and cold chicken pcs which was obviously not what I ordered.. no chips small amount of food and the price did not match at all... RIP OFF!!! so I called them up and the manager was soo arrogant and rude towards me saying this is the order. The pizza was more money then the wings.. obviously! He wouldn't give me a refund or come to an agreement! Instead he tells me the only thing he can do is take the food.. no refund or give me something else instead! FOOD WENT IN THE BIN!! the workers are Very abusive and disgusting behaviour from all 3 workers passing phone over to one another!!! Bad customer service.. no people skills.. no apology! They take customers for fools and they do not put customers first!! Bad business!!! And SCAMS!!!! would never recommend this place.
