The best restaurants serving British food in Chalkwell Southend-on-Sea East of England

I am not sure where to start but this was the dirtiest restaurant l have provably ever been to. Cutlery was dirty , my husband had to clean the. With the napkin. When we walked in the small in the restaurant was not great. We had portion of chips to share and some drinks. Chips were under average. Toilets were disgusting... not sure what to say really , it's just a place that shpuld close down because of the hygiene standards. We will not come back

Lovely pub, friendly atmosphere, pub food but done well. Service excellent.

We stopped by The Beach Hut in Southend-on-Sea during a beach walk and loved it! The staff were so friendly, and we enjoyed two pints and crispy chips while taking in the lovely seaside views. A great, relaxing stop—highly recommend!

They had on a event that they wanted families to come to. Someone had fainted. The paramedics had asked for a chair for the person.Some drunk thought someone was stealing his chair and started swearing in front of a young child and trying to cause a fight. When the someone was getting a chair that was asked for by the ambulance staff and when the incident occurred the bar staff did nothing.There was no bouncer or manager around. The guy should of been barred for life. In weatherspoon he would of have been. When someone asked the bar staff said although they allow children, they can't control customer's language, The drunk seemed to be working for the pub on the night and someone mentioned he was the DJ for the night. No manager got involved, bar staff watching and doing nothing. The guy who was swearing and wanted to fight should be banned or sacked. What decent human denies something that has been asked for by a paramedic!
