Boeuf is Medway’s first Steak Frites House, a restaurant serving the ultimate steak frites experience. Brought to you by the same team at The Dead Pigeon Pub & The Greedy Banker Pub, Boeuf is a unique experience that elevates this popular French/Belgian dish.Through heavy research and years of knowledge working with beef we bring to you quite possibly the best cut of steak; Sirloin Pavé. This is a rare, premium cut of beef which has the same juicy tenderness of a fillet steak with the rich beefy flavour of a sirloin.Our menu is precise and to the point but there is no need to do more when we have the best of everything all on one plate.What makes our steak frites experience unique is we serve you the steak frites twice. Yes that’s right double steak frites!Please note due to the size of the restaurant we are unable to accommodate pushchairs or high chairs. There is also no children's menu.

Great place to eat and is a traditional pub environment. All the food was prepared individually, with great care and passion. A small menu which we understood is changed with the seasons.

First time I have eaten here and afternoon tea was delightful and plentiful. Gave us a box to bring home the cakes we couldn’t eat. Service was outstanding and didn’t stop asking if we would like refill of our drinks. Nothing too much trouble and very attentive. Will deffo being coming back again.

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.
