The best restaurants serving British food in Brentwood East of England

Just found this place on our drive home… oh my god wonderful, sandwich filling was so tasty and full of flavour, did not taste cheap and cheerful in the slightest! Lovely sausage rolls too ! The chicken and bacon mayo sandwich was to die for, full of flavour. Five stars :)

We hired this venue for my mums 80th party and could not be more pleased with everything it provides It was a extremely hot day but unlike a lot of hire venues it is fully air conditioned Very good facilities , well stocked bar The food which is cooked on site and we had a three course roast dinner was absolutely beautiful all fresh and served promptly and with style The staff were extremely friendly and helpful A very good size venue with dance floor , stage area and lovely decor I could not of chose a better venue and will recommend and use again without hesitation

Came actually by accident, but had a lovely breakfast and coffee From outside you wouldn’t know what was inside, but it’s well worth a visit

Nice, clean and friendly very helpful. Food tasty and nice to see lots of variety. We don’t all like the traditional . Glad to see them back after they left lakeside.

Very nice place. Friendly staff. Good food.

Had a Sunday roast at this venue, all fresh vegetables, home made Yorkshire pudding I found that the vegetables wasn't seasoned, personally I don't like to add salt to my dinner but today I had to to add salt to give it taste, even the roast potatoes were bland, probably maris pipers which are not the best for roast potatoes, good size dinner

Was welcomed by a lovely polite and attentive member of staff. Tables nice and clean. Ordered an egg sandwich which came in lovely fresh granary bread and a fresh side salad. Will definitely go back.

Booked 8’adults for my wife’s birthday dinner. All very nice and would recommend. The only thing I thought was terribly mean was after they brought my wife’s birthday cake I asked for some cream and they charged me £5.15. Overall we had spent close to £500 in total on food, drinks and tip. That was petty.

Absolutely brilliant! We hired The Brentwood Kitchen for our daughter’s 18th Birthday party and hired the DJ they recommended. Venue was great and DJ Steve excellent! We took along some balloons but that was all. Decoration is so optional and really you don’t anything… Just turn up with a happy face and your dancing shoes! Food was really delicious and was beautifully presented. Lots of compliments from guests. Bar & Kitchen staff were very lovely and really friendly. Communication was also excellent, very friendly, relaxed, helpful and swift responses to any queries (not that we really had many). Would definitely recommend! Thank you so much for a great night.

Visited for the first time on a very busy Saturday evening this interesting restaurant in a very attractive small town just of the high street. Its a modern bar/restaurant with an area outside for eating too with free parking. The staff are very friendly and the service was attentive the whole evening. The Asian menu offers main meals or tapas with the best of ingredients used.

A nice friendly staff and interesting antiques and a nice tea and coffee the lady who owns it was very knowledgeable it was nice and relaxed atmosphere, would visit again, prices reasonable.

Appalling behaviour from the server, having clearly specified we would be attending with two dogs at the time of booking we agreed we would be seated in the conservatory area which we were informed was dog friendly. Upon arrival the server who came to the door looked down his nose and refused seating stating the dogs had wet paws. Given it was raining of course they were going to have wet paws but they were clean having just been showered from a walk. He stated the floor would be stained as it’s porcelain, which is nonsensical given we also had wet soles of our shoes from the rain. How is the conservatory dog friendly if that’s the case?! His attitude was abhorrent. Never have we been made to feel so beneath someone. He clearly did not want the service and as result we will never return so such a degrading environment.

I have just returned from this restaurant after a truly great meal. We were just about to order the obligatory Sunday roast when my daughter noticed the Specials board. It contained one our favourite meals, pork belly with dauphinois potatoes. The quality of the food wouldn’t have disgraced a pricier venue. And all at a reasonable price. Will definitely be back. Thank you.

Christmas Day and Boxing Day 2024. Great food on both days. The restaurant was well managed by the waiting team, and the lounge areas were very inviting. Log fires and tasteful Christmas decorations. Excellent communication from friendly staff including, David and Annette.

Always very friendly and helpful. Beautiful old village pub with an atmosphere to match. A great local.
