The best restaurants serving British food in Basildon East of England

Fabulous coffee and an excellent salt beef sandwich. The best bit ??? The service and friendless of the staff. They were so kind and helpful to me and my mum who suffers with dementia. They couldn't do enough for us. Thank you

Absolutely lovely fish and chips! Tasty, fresh and very good value for money. Would definitely recommend and get our fish and chips from here again!

The food and service here is fantastic. The restaurant is more of a takeaway as it is very small can probably fit two people in. The food is always really fresh and tasty. I personally think it is a little overpriced compared to other places

Food to die for, really kind and warm people. 10/10 place

Has been a family favourite for nearly 20 years it reminds us of family Friday fish

Ordered food as i witnessed the plated gold they were bringing out for others. I was not disapointed. All the staff were so happy and welcoming it got me excited about the food and my time here very nice regulars, and the randoms that came in (like me) left with a smile. Very clean toilets clean bars and tables. Very nice ye olde interior alot of history. Thank you !

Very nice good service food delicious Cant wait to come again

Went to this diner with one of her mates and her mum and it was really good Had a great chat and a had great drink being apple juice Completely recommend if your in the area Solid 5/5 🙂🍏

Went their to celebrate my sons birthday 40th we had a private section. We had a lovely time the staff very professional and the food was very well presented and good portions.

Come here a lot and always enjoy the food, today was a little bit disappointing, the fried slice was only crisp around the edges, the middle of the slice was just soggy, also the toast had probably been toasted for 10 seconds and then butter spread on it, it was just a wet soggy mess, the staff are always helpful and friendly and the cafe is clean

We love the Cosy Club, it's like extended family. So friendly and welcoming and the food and drink are the best. Visits there make our day, it has a great atmosphere and we love the sun terrace in summer. We love this place.

Chilli arrived mostly cold, with lumpy rice and a bit of sauce — almost no meat at all. The ham, egg, and chips were no better; the ham was cold and tough to chew. The milkshake came topped with lumpy cream, which was unappetising. Overall, it felt rushed and poorly made. Sadly, I won’t be ordering again.

Chips were freshly cooked (but a bit undercooked and limp), battered sausage was ok, but the 'batter' was a thin coating of something very chewy, but worst was the fish. A thin layer of 'fish' between two limp, chewy, layers of thin 'batter' - think the cheapest frozen 'oven fish'.

i wish they would stick to their opening hours, went there today about 3.30 sorry we are closed had on the door closing time is advertised 4.30 this is not the first time, the family were dissapointed they had no pie and mash for tea, will think twice about going there again

This is now called Georges but is still a chip shop. The staff are cheerful and happy to help and meet your requirements. I went on Saturday to buy fish, chicken, savaloys and chips for a number of us and asked for the sothern fried chicken amongst other things and had quite a long wait as it was freshly cooked for me. When I got home with the food it was all piping hot and we had a nice meal. The portions are quite large and you will know that you have had a feast when you are finished. Well done can't wait to visit again when we wre in Billericay.
