The best restaurants serving British food in Brentwood South Brentwood East of England

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.

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.

I don't usually write reviews, but I was really disappointed in the quality of food at this place, it's great concept with the small kids' area so people with kids can sit and have their food or coffee whilst their kids play however when eating out and paying £27 for 2x breakfast meals and 2 coffees you'd expect good quality food something a little nicer than you could make yourself at home. The pancakes were the ones you get in a packet from the supermarket £1 for packet of 6 that you put down in the toaster with 2 slices of bacon and half a tin of syrup you'd expect fresh pancakes for the price of £12. The avocado on toast was tasteless really thick white bread with just avocado spreaded on top really poorly displayed for a cafe/restaurant- if you are ordering crushed avocado on toast, you usually get it on a nice piece of sourdough fresh bread with chilli seeds cherry tomatoes and rocket or radishes with feta and balsamic glaze or nice tasting sauce of some kind, it was so basic for the price you pay. The coffee I couldn't even drink, it was also tasteless- I'd also suggest them investing in a decent coffee machine if they are going to charge £3 for a coffee. Also, please note the venue has a black baby gate as you enter via a ramp it's quite tricky to open especially if you are on your own with a buggy.

Very disappointing, it was chaotic, slow and when the food eventually arrived it was not hot! It took over an hour from sitting down to the food arriving, however, Deliveroo drivers were in and out like yo-yo’s evidently taking the kitchen’s time and priority over the customers on site. The shepherds pie was pitiful, hardly any meat, and lukewarm and served with a side of cubed potatoes when the pie was mainly mash. The kids fish fingers were over cooked, dry and hard. Needless to say we won’t be returning and I doubt that several table around us will either as everyone was frustrated by the extended wait but all witnessing the endless stream of motorbike delivery guys walking in and out!

Enjoyed our family lunch today (Wed 16th) good food at competitive prices. Served as usual by Annie with whom we always have a friendly banter whilst she takes our order & again prior to our departure .. the ideal waitress, both efficient & friendly.

Really nice chilled atmosphere when arriving c. 8pm on Friday 21st Feb. Got served straight away. No crowding, found a table. Leffe was topped to the brim and very tasty. Food however was a different matter - My order of chicken topped bacon + cheese was devoid of any heat at all. The peas were literally stone cold. The chips that were served with it were hot. My wife's Barbecue chicken pizza was poorly cooked the dough virtually uncooked in places. The barbecue sauce had just been squirted in a couple of places on top rather than being an integral part of the pizza base. We did talk to the waiter (of apparent chinese extraction) however an AI robot would have had more empathy. We didn't think it was worth our while complaining and sending the dishes back as who knows what might happen in the kitchen to punish us for deigning to complain. So the next night of our stay in Brentwood we went to the supermarket and got a takeaway kebab !

I visited Rooster Piri Piri with my mum, excited to try it as it looked so good. However, when I saw the menu, I was shocked by the high prices, which didn’t seem worth it at all. After trying the food, I ended up with a stomach ache the next day. The food was flavorless, and the chicken burger I ordered turned out to be a disappointment—a mini chicken wing with a bone was thrown into the burger. I ordered extra hot chicken, but it wasn’t hot at all; it was bland. I felt sick and couldn’t finish my food, eventually having to throw it away. I will never order from here again and do not recommend it to anyone. If you want grilled chicken, go elsewhere.
