The best restaurants serving Other cuisines food in East of England

I went in December. The server was very friendly and helpful, which was really nice. There was a wide variety of delicious ice creams, and also a selection of cones and toppings. Expensive, but good

Can't comment on food as when we arrived cafe shut!! Apparently closed on Wednesdays and Thursdays!!!! Went back to Willow Trees Farm and had delicious meal.

Nice little cafe friendly staff nice portions of the breakfast nice coffee can get really busy good selection on the menu only down side is cash only and catering sausages I would pay £1 more for a good pork sausage

We usually love coming here for breakfast - I ordered poached egg on toast, unfortunately when this came out my eggs were hard boiled - the waitress came and said she would get me some more eggs cooked. This took almost 20 minutes by which time my toast had gone cold. My mum ordered a simple bacon sandwich which came on stale bread and was so burnt she could hardly eat it. Finally got my eggs and they weren't much better! Such a shame as they used to do a lovely breakfast.

Was recommended this pub by a friend. Really looking forward to a pub lunch on a Sunday afternoon.. Completely disgraced and disappointed on arriving. Utterly disgraced by the TLC on the sofa chairs by the window ( where we sat).. sofa covers ripped seeing yellow polyestiring in seats fraying.. 😕 Friend was told pub was not doing food?? Any reason for a Sunday afternoon, could chefs be having a day off.. Very very disappointed we both were, summing up a few gents in the restaurant area having beers. Bar lady serving drinks watched me and my friend exit the pub seemingly un-concerned… Glad I’m not a local definitely will not be returning.

Absolutely disgusting food. I would not recommend attempting to eat here. The chef needs to go back to the drawing board or think about throwing the towel in. Worst food my family and I have had, can’t remember ever eating such terrible food. There is more salt in the food than the Dead Sea, and in kids meals…. Wowza

Cappuccino was awful, far too hot and totally tasteless. I know this is a tea shop but if you can’t make coffee don’t offer it! The panini we ordered was also very poor.....served nuclear hot, completely flat and without any garnish or love.

Best breakfast around. Love it here! Always seem to busy but efficient service. Menu choice is great. The food and drinks are lovely

Having read the Andrew M review I thought I would test his theory. To my surprise the shop was open and had a lovely ambience (maybe because Mr M wasn't there). As an owner operator establishment it is lovely and all the regulars seemed to understand that people can't work 24hrs a day, 365 days a year. Maybe Mr M should send everyone his schedule so they can be open for him I would thoroughly recommend Mama's if you want a local, non corporate coffee shop

We first visited Surf last January, when after a delicious meal, I left a 5 star review. We subsequently made other visits during which the food was just as enjoyable. However, our last visit was very disappointing. The 3 dishes with hollandaise sauce, which I felt were a real highlight, are no longer on the menu. The poached eggs we ordered were very overcooked. A new branch of Surf has opened on the Rayleigh Road, and I noted that the 3 previously mentioned dishes are on the menu at the new location. I can only assume that the Chef is now working at the new location, leaving someone with less culinary skills to manage the less ambitious menu at the Chalkwell Beach location. It would be a terrible shame if standards at this wonderfully situated location are going to suffer.

Nice coffee food OK. Served our coffee in takeaway cups despite having ordered hot food and sitting in. Proper cups given to people coming in after us.Also the Barista shows off a little.

I attended with my family and thought it was very overpriced for the quality of the food which was below average. Also the owner had two young girls working for her and how she was speaking to them infront of us made us feel so uncomfortable she was belittling them infront of other customers and it was very uncomfortable to witness. The girls appeared really hardworking but it was evident she was making them nervous. The lady shouted across the cafe inront of other customers did they get your order right?! They may have been her relatives working for her but no excuse please treat your staff a bit kinder and don't make customers feel awkward and kern to get out of there as soon as possible!!! Very dissapointed and won't be returning!

Arrived to RoseyLea's at 9.20am for breakfast on 9th June. Stood by the wait here sign for 5 minutes without any staff in sight. Two tables eating their breakfast inside the restaurant. When I poked my head around towards the kitchen, there were two staff members enjoying their own breakfast and 5 staff chatting to themselves in the kitchen. Stood for a further minute or two before we were acknowledged. A young woman with a scowl on her face and looking like she would rather be anywhere else barked 'how many?' After saying we were 3 plus a baby she gestured half heartedly to the restaurant and walked off sullenly back towards the kitchen. My pregnant wife was left holding our toddler while I was forced to shout across the restaurant for a high chair. The food was extremely average - both in quality and cooking skill. I am by no means a chef, but I could have made it better at home. And honestly, £3.25 for a small glass of long-life orange juice?! I don't mind paying that kind of money for juice, but at least get some not-from-concetrate stuff. You must think your customers are mugs! What a massive shame as with the novelty of the airport for children this could be a really good spot, but this is a rip off at £50!

My favourite local coffee spot. Great coffee, friendly faces, good selection of lunch bite and pastries. Fresh juice selection if you need a bit of healthy option. Perfect for meetings and remote work if you need to get out of the house and change a scen. Parking around the corner and they have loyalty programme.

Went for the carvery on Sunday afternoon. Absolutely fantastic. Great food and plenty of it!! Trevor and the team really smashed it out of the park.
