The best restaurants in East of England

What a lovely pub, the service was professional, super friendly and efficient and the food fantastic. Very high quality, loved it and will definitely return if ever in the area.

As a pool player for this pub I'm in here most days. What makes this pub the place to be is the character, the charm, the staff who make it such a cosy place to frequent. The food is amazing, my favourite by far is the roast dinners. Massive fan of then. The staff too are friendly and accommodating, even playing pool they come over and talk to you ask you about your day ect, their general attitude is very positive and it makes the experience that much better. I can't imagine going anywhere else. Keep up the great work!

Takeaways from this AMAZING DELI in Cley is FANTASTIC!! I always get us lunch or treats for home and ordered 2 GINORMOUS CAKES FOR MY BIRTHDAY PARTY AT HOME AND THEY WERE GORGEOUS! Victoria Sponge and Chocolate!! Everyone commented!!

The owner of this place does not have a clue about running a business which includes giving polite, courteous customer service because she has none of these skills! Off hand, flippant and down right rude are skills she is good at. The staff they employ are inexperienced, ignorant and lacking any customer skills also. Asked if they could serve a flat white coffee they responded, “never heard of it” and when we asked what beer they had the waitress said one in a bottle with a red label and one with a blue label. Unbelievable! Overpriced and the food is very mediocre, we cook better and tastier at home. Never go again and would never recommend. Tip for owner, go on a management course to help your inexperienced staff and while there learn some customer service skills.

We found this garden centre by chance. I'd intended to eat elsewhere but that fell through so looking for somewhere near to a church we wanted to visit I found this garden centre. It was 1pm on a Sunday and absolutely packed, with a constant stream of people arriving. A good selection of hot and cold food including specials and a lovely selection of cakes. I had quiche, salad and buttered potatoes which was tasty. My husband had Macaroni cheese which was surprisingly generous and came with salad and garlic bread. We rounded it off with a pot of tea and a cake each. It cost £35, which was less than the meal we'd have the previous day, for more food and much better quality. Would definitely recommend and you then have the garden centre to explore as well. Plenty of parking. Service quick even though it was so busy.

Place an order for 8.40pm, driver is outside/calls at 6.15pm asking if I'd like it now, but no good,unfortunately I'm not home. Order finally arrives at 9.30pm and it's grim. Cold,dry curries with rubbery chicken(taste reheated), naan breads cold,burnt and rock hard. All of it straight in the bin. Waste of time and £40

Great pub with live bands, the owners are so welcoming. Would highly recommend checking it out

Juboraj is my go to Indian restaurant in Brentwood. Food is fantastic, staff are lovely & always accommodating for seating. Exactly what you want from your local Indian.

The best place in beautiful Leigh-on-Sea

What an absolutely fantastic restaurant. Our first time there, and we were all blown away. The service is great, the food is top-notch. We loved it

Ive had the haddock and chips here a few times now.....its banging... so good....definitely going back

The manager is very rude. We won't be going back. We witnessed an incident with someone else and felt lucky it wasn't us. He ruined the atmosphere.

There are not enough seats, but really nice pizza. Staff are friendly and helpful.

We had an amazing time. The food was lovely, it felt like being on holiday. The staff were very friendly and welcoming. I will definitely come back again in the future.

I had pasta with braised beef & tomatoes. Very tasty & well presented. Sue had a chicken breast dinner. Very nice & served with a warm smile & friendly conversation. Very clean throughout. Parked outside the door! Can highly recommend. Thank you to all staff. Special thanks to the waitress who brought me bread to mop up the sauce. It was delicious & could not be left for the washing up.
