The best restaurants serving Other cuisines food in Colchester East of England

Surprising find in this pretty Suffolk village. Dedham has all the necessary shops, carefully positioned in original buildings, no garish signage here and The Old Bakery Cafe is no exception. It’s a somewhat spacious and neat enterprise tucked away on a corner with plenty of free parking to be had close by An instant recognition and friendly greeting from the staff, and neatly spaced out tables held menus for breakfast / brunch, lunch and then our eyes were taken by a cabinet of cakes for those there later for tea. There is no shortage of choice at TOBC. We ate two imaginative and well put together brunch dishes of back bacon, halloumi, chilli jam on sourdough toast with a good sprig of salad leaves, beetroot and baby tomatoes which made a substantial and reasonably priced dish. Excellent coffee too The staff, the menu and the presentation suited us down to the ground. You’ve got it bang-on

Just called for a drink whilst working in Colchester ,decided to order some food, southern chicken bao bun and beer infused fries, absolutely delicious, perfectly presented next level, aslo great play list

What a delightful surprise Level Best Café was. Friendly welcome and very reasonably priced good coffee and delicious cakes. Thank you.

When I moved here there was two lovely lady’s who ran it by them self but they left to Australia so a new group came which have recently gotten rid of many of the best items and now have made it terrible I recommend you go to the greasy spoon close to Tesco which is only a five minute walk and is vastly superior to the coffee house 211

Separate menus for vegetarian and meat eaters, staff friendly and beautiful garden area. Would definitely come again and recommend as the food was delicious. They also have gluten free and vegan menus too

Best pub in Wivenhoe by miles. Friendly, accessible and great drinks and events - it might not be near the river but it’s the place to head to

This place is a hidden little gem tucked away in the cemetery grounds on mersea road (located near to the exit). The staff are always welcoming and happy to see you. (Many are volunteering so makes it that even more special). I have attended two wakes here and both times was so impressed. I also have had afternoon tea which was amazing and sometimes pop in for a lovely coffee and slice of cake. Can’t recommend this place enough.

What a lovely little find. Visiting Colchester from Ipswich with my daughter and wanted a hot drink and a snack. We were wandering around and found this little gem. Small cafe. On sitting down we glanced at other tables and their food and we were tempted to rather than buy a sandwich or toastie we both had cheesy chilli jacket potatoes served with a little bowl of dressed salad and coleslaw. The service was both quick and friendly. The place had a nice relaxing atmosphere and some of the customers seemed to know the staff so it seems like they have returning customers. They also did a nice pot of tea.

Amazing food and served with a smile.. Tina was very happy to engage in chat and bring the food to the table, also made sure we had enough papers😉.. highly recommend the race cafe.

lovely meal and good service, had the sticky beef and noodles followed by the brazilian seafood stew which was fantastic. others had steak, all dishes were first class. hopefully everyone will now know you are open as a great addition to Mersea.

Super home bakes, both sweet and savoury. Excellent coffee and all very reasonably priced. Great place for lunch or a snack.

Just recently moved to Tiptree and called in for a coffee and Bakewell tart. Both were delicious. Friendly staff & good service.

Use this bakery each morning. Awesome selection..all fresh...all social distancing observed and Hollie always gives a brilliant greeting.

Arrived without a booking on a busy Saturday evening and they found us a table within a short time. The food was good and the service was second to none. We were attended to by a number of waiting staff, all of whom were personable and engaging and who were a credit to the Crown.
