The best restaurants in Hylands Havering London

Got a take away menu through the door from a restaurant called Spice Club, it used to be Cafe Balti before the previous owner retired. The menu had some really nice sounding dishes which I have never noticed on other menus. My friend ordered too many onion bhajis which I’m not too crazy about but these ones where so nice and so different to any I’ve had before. I like to try anything new that I have never had before and I am so glad I did because the rest of the dishes that I had were also very tasty. They do not use any artificial colouring or flavouring which is always an added bonus for me. So if you fancy trying some new curry dishes give Spice Club a visit, they still do the old favourites but the first time I go there for a meal I know I’ll be having something new because most other menus have the same old stuff.

I visited the restaurant with my family on a Saturday night, we had an extremely long wait for our food, it seems that deliveries and takeaways take priority over customers inside the restaurant. There is very poor communication from the staff as to how long you should be expected to wait for your food. On a positive note, after a very long wait at least the food was very nice. When our party finished the meal, I went up to pay the bill and the manager thought I was asking for a table and said “ you can’t just walk in here like you are the king and expect to get a table”, I explained to him that I do not need a table, I am simply trying to pay my bill. Obviously this was a misunderstanding, but it was pretty unacceptable to be spoken to like that.

The food is delicious and the staff is decent and fully trained I recommend to everyone have to try once

Fresh hot food. Good service. Very clean compared to somewhere like KFC.

Just back from a lunch. Very dissapointed. We waited an hour for food to come. My food was terrible, ham, egg and chips. Ham was fatty, egg over cooked and all cold. I was given more ham when complained but this was tough. The manager did refund my money but it spoilt the occasion. There were a lot of people complaining about the service and quality of the food it’s a shame as the staff were lovely.

Very dissatisfied today young girl on the till made a mistake then ended up taking 2 free drinks off my rewards instead of just one

Replaced by the Harris & Hoole coffee franchise. We do miss the full English Breakfast. Not a move "up Market" that we appreciate!

We booked the pub for a private function, the food was great, staff were attentive to our needs and ensured it was kept clean throughout. I would recommend it to others.
