Had the crispy beef and trio of prawn starters. Had tastier king prawns but the crispy beef is something special! Rib eye steak and short beef rib for mains. Steak was perfect but the short beef rib…oh my days! Soooo good! The gravy/sauce that it comes with was amazing and the beef just fell apart and there was plenty of it! Wild mushrooms as a side were excellent! Quiet evening as we went early! Never had a bad dining experience here. 🧡

It is a nice restaurant with a view of Southend airport which currently is very quite (the airport) The staff were very helpful and friendly which was great, the food was good and even with the starter of my partner being slightly over cooked, they removed it from the bill and thanked us for our genuine feedback. Overall i would return to the restaurant and could recommend it.

First time visiting this Restaurant/Pub for lunch with my daughter. I can honestly say the food and service was excellent. We had the Oysters and and chicken parfait for starters. The Maldon oysters were fresh from the sea and tasted so. The chicken parfait was enough for two people on its own. The star of the meal was my venison cooked to perfection on a bed of purreed cauliflower smooth and creamy. My daughter had the pie with meat filling in a lovely pastry and super smooth mash. Crème brûlée crunchy caramel topping and the crème enfused with real vanilla. The apple and pear crumble had a great crunchy crumble and you could taste both apple and pear perfectly. I highly recommend eating here and look forward to going back here.

We are a vegan and vegetarian and there are always options available. The mushroom risotto was a good portion and very tasty. We enjoyed the wine too and the service is friendly and attentive.
