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

Always go here every week for wonderufl fresh seafood and also wonderful hot extras such as prawn curry and other specials which sell out quickly. Never had a bad batch from here.

We came to buy shellfish today. I have always really loved shellfish. Bought winkles and shrimps, would have loved to buy much more, but be back another day as all looked to appetizing. Staff friendly and helpful. Highly recommend. I plan to return within the week.

Just grabbed 2 cod and chips from Henry Higgins and as usual absolutely banging!! Huge portion, cooked amazingly, not greasy at all. Succulent cod in a super crispy batter and the best chips in southend. Amazing value compared to the other chip shops around. If you really appreciate decent fish and chips don't bother going anywhere else use these guys, you will not be disappointed.

What a gem this place is. I was staying at the Premier Inn for work and originally planned to eat in the hotel. But their restaurant was closed so I came here, and I'm so glad I did! Next time I stay at the Premier Inn I'm definitely eating here again! I love the fact that it's properly ON the beach. It's rustic and authentic and the food was delicious. Best atmosphere and best food in Southend!

Great local find!! Easy to book, great service and delicious food. We enjoyed afternoon tea for two and i’m always slightly reluctant with how a tea can be when you haven’t been before. Well worry not! Quality bread, tasty fillings, warm scones (have to be warm right?) and delicious cakes. It was a delight and the service was excellent. Highly recommend and parking nearby was nice and easy too. Perfect for couples, families and groups of friends too.

Cash only. Good way to lose what could be a reoccurring customer as this is our local. I’ll always pay cash when I have it but on the occasion I don’t, you should take card.

Poor portion sizes, average. Il stick to nessys. Owner replied to this rudely telling me to provide a receipt and go to the store or he will report my review as a scam!? But they never gave a receipt!? I just didn't like the food it's not personal

Nice fish chip shop check opening hours as they do open then shut and reopen again Fish was cooked fresh worth a visit would recommend nice chip shop to local area

Best fish and chips in Southend! Large portions and tasty chips! Not the greasy soaked fish & chips you sometimes come across on the seafront!

We booked No1 for a private function, the size of the space was perfect and the food was excellent! The staff are so friendly it felt like they were apart of the celebration and chris the manager was so understanding of our arrangements and nothing was too much trouble. Thank you No1

Totally discussed with this place.. thought was coming to nice cafe to have lunch with my family.. we been waiting almost 25 minutes for our food. I asked several times why our food was taking so long????? The manager creepy kept looking behind freezer but didn't want to respond. Instead sends his girl staff to apologise for delay in food. But perfectly serving customers outside efficiently????

I am a regular so I know the staff well. The manager was upset today at a review and she phoned to check with me as my chips were from the same batch as the 'child' that lodged the bad review. I know for a fact the reviewer was a school kid as I was standing behind and was the last to be served...... Not even going to comment. I had the ribs and chips and it was to the usual high standard. Chris's might not be the cheapest but one thing you cannot fault them for is product quality. Keep up the good work.

Nice little meal. I was working down the road and didn't want anything too heavy so opted for the Cod Special. It was very tasty and just the right portion for me!

Visited yesterday with my husband and sat outside in the sun. We ordered padron peppers, crab orzo and truffle and Parmesan fries with a beer and a rock shandy. The food and drinks were lovely, the crab orzo was amazing and I will definitely be back to have the main size portion of this. The prices do seem slightly too high for the fries and the padron peppers considering how much you get, however we had a lovely time, enjoyed all of it and will be back. It would be good if other customers sitting outside paid attention to the no smoking sign however as it’s a small space and unpleasant.
