The best restaurants serving Brasserie food in Nethermayne Basildon East of England

Got a nice table in the bar, staff super helpful, ordered food. 3 meals ok but salad bowl with halloumi really disappointing. A table spoon of grains/beans etc covered by a few thin slivers of pepper and a whole little gem. So basically a bowl Of lettuce. Halloumi on the top was nice but very overpriced for the meagre salad type rations. Off duty staff (?) Sat near us, drinking, shouting, swearing, deriding the chefs, menu and the staff on duty. Just not a pleasant experience.
