A great find! Simply popped in for a cheeky pint with a friend, a lovely relaxing place to enjoy. Has a great outside space for eating & drinking, really enjoyed it here. Not tried the food as of yet, but will be back to eat too! Proper pub, well worth a visit too.

A venue not to be missed in this charming village - brilliant decor and music, delicious food and truly attentive service.

Away for a couple of days, we found this delightful cafe. We had ham, egg and chips in the afternoon. Beautifully presented, hot and so tasty (the ham was so good!) For breakfast the following day I had smashed avocado with poached eggs! Others in my group had full English and a bacon sandwich. All presented with a smile and a cheery chat. Beautifully clean cafe with such pleasant staff and a wonderful outlook!

We wanted a sarnie and a cuppa on our way to visit St Peters on the Wall and chose this place as it was on the route…..more or less. We were so glad we did as we enjoyed generously filled sandwiches with full salad ( not just a few leaves) coleslaw and crisps and good coffee all at a very reasonable price and service with a smile. The cakes looked really good too.

Excellent atmosphere. Lovely food (especially for my wife who is gluten and lactose free). They went out of their way to accommodate her. Great staff. Will go again.

Great place with beautiful gardens and relaxed atmosphere . we attended a wedding and may see this as a future venue for an up comming gathering ourselves

We had a lovely roast dinner which included homemade yorkshire puddings, loads of different vegetables and lovely gravy.

Very unhelpful in the bar, I asked for a sandwich as I have dietary requirement only to be scoffed at saying we have made a bar menu for a reason , flicking his wrist he trotted of the to kitchen, come back to tell me that this hotel and restaurant doesn’t have any bread ! Joke , I knew what his attitude would be before I asked , don’t bother going here if you have any special requests other than a couple slices of bread

This is my favourite place in Maldon! The atmosphere and and service make it such an intimate experience. It is the perfect place to meet friends - although I will I come here with my family, my husband and love taking my six-year-old niece for breakfast dates. The team and owner, Mario, are so welcoming and friendly. I will often come here for a coffee by myself and just sit for an hour or so taking some time for me. The coffee is phenomenal. There is not a place like it nearby, the diverse menu options cater for everyone. And the Tapas! Wow! There is not a thing I do not like on the menu and the fact that it is varied for seasons and holidays means that you can have a different experience every time. I cannot recommend Driftwood high enough. It is my go to place and if you haven’t tried it, you really should! Perfect for casual dining and special occasions.

We've been here several times - the main reason is because the kids play area is fantastic for our boys aged 6 & 8! We booked for mother's day and had the roast - absolutely delicious, just like Grandma would make! Kids had sausage & chips, huge portions! :) Staff are so friendly and welcoming, it's definitely a little hidden gem for us - thank you for making my mother's day special :)

We stopped here for some lunch, really generous portions. Biscoff cheesecake was delicious! Staff very welcoming, as was the dog who greeted us on arrival. Would advise to book in advance as gets busy.
