City eats in Brentwood

“Where do you start when you have a lovely restaurant and the most patient and accommodating staff. Every special request was catered for by the most attentive staff who looked after our family of 15 for lunch. The staff are so kind and friendly they create a perfect atmosphere for celebration. Last but not least the food is delicious; the chefs really know their trade. They serve great portion size at such reasonable prices. We will definitely be returning soon. Thank you all.”

“Amazing food!!! Would defo order from here again, was delivered quickly and still piping hot. The person on the phone was lovely as well as the delivery driver. 10/10”

“We turned up with no booking on Father’s Day. We were seated promptly and our drinks order was taken. My son has an allergy and upon taking our order they asked lots of questions and made sure I read through the ingredients list before the order was put through. When then ordered to breakfasts with some alternatives and a porridge bowl with fruit. My son’s order turned up first with a green flag to show he had the allergy. Then porridge was so tasty and the breakfast came up hot, and hot plates just to their order. Our meal was lovely, the waitress were kind, and happy. They meal checked us and plates were taken swiftly when we had finished. Well worth a visit, we would right recommend.”

“Great experience, the restaurant has a very classy feel and we were welcomed very warmly by staff. We opted for the surf and turf share platter which was out of this world, the meat was top quality and cooked to perfection, the platter also coming with a range of sides to completment the vast meat selection! Beer and wine was excellent and the atmosphere was good even though it was quite an early Wednesday dinner sitting. Highly recommend Turkish in Essex and I shall definitely be returning to the fat turk !”

“Lovely gastro pub. They do some good mid week offers, but one main meal, get another free. Two cocktails for £16. Had the chicken skewers starter , very nice. And rump steak main, again nice. And chocolate bomb dessert. Wished we had ordered onion rings, as they looked fab. Our server, dark haired lad, was great, very friendly and great service.”

“Had first courses, wine and dessert. Service was nice and swift. Everything we had was good.”

“We have been here a few times and always return for our wedding anniversary. This year was the first year we brought out 1 year old son with us and the staff were so brilliant with him. They got the table all set up before we arrived which was just a lovely touch - usually I'm having to run around trying to find a high chair. Kalia was our waitress and right from the start she was so warm and welcoming. She waved to our son and made him smile, and she showed us the vast array of children's toys and books they had available to entertain him with! I've never experienced such thoughtfulness for children at a restaurant before. The food was brilliant as always. At one point we even thought to ask if our son's meals were actually from the kid's menu because the portion sizes were so good! My husband had the ribs which he says are incredible every time, and I had the vegetable ravioli which tasted really fresh. We will continue to return here for our anniversary, and I'm sure we will make a few more trips throughout the year too! Thank you for the lovely food and for making us feel so comfortable with a young child.”

“Another wonderful lunch with an incredibly delicious food.”

“Very warm service, coffee and venue. Staff are lovely and helpful. Best coffee for miles around.”

“I visited this restaurant with a client for the first time,this week. A wonderful gem, in a small village. Excellent food and service, extremely good wine and the chef/owner an absolute gentlemen with a great sense of humour. I live in France and have to say, one of the finest meals I have had anywhere.”

“Such a lovely place to be . Food great and so friendly. I would always choose this as my place to eat .”

“We made an order for a Christmas Fish and Chip Supper for our Carer team at Home Instead for delivery. The food arrived piping hot, on time and the fish and chips were excellent. Thanks to Mehmet and his team for helping to make it a great night”

“The Staff , Service and food was impeccable, we have been eating here for a number of years and we are always greeted so warmly by front of house staff and all the lovely waiters and waitresses , I highly recommend a Lunch or Dinner here food is superb ,”

“Great little cafe with lovely service and great food. Their menu is extensive and they let us know that we could mix and match all sandwich fillings as we wish. Support local businesses and try this cafe instead of the big chains on the high street!”

“Love coming to the Deli. The food selection is endless and excellent. Cannot fault the friendly and helpful staff. It’s a great venue for breakfast, lunch or just a coffee, just sit back and enjoy the cosy and relaxing atmosphere.”

“Such a fun place - hidden round the back streets of the High Road. I didn’t know it existed until a friend took me there. Lovely bar staff and great DJ playing great tunes. Can’t wait to go back!!”

“Fantastic place to work remotely with great service. Me and my wife often come to The Dairyman in Brentwood to work remotely while our son is at school, and its become one of our favourite spots. The service is always good, and the staff are consistently warm, welcoming and attentive, especially Giselle - even when we are here for long stretches of time. Its a comfortable and friendly environment with reasonable food and great drinks ad always feel looked after. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a place to work or unwind.”

“I want to say a massive thank you to Jack and Harry who helped us with a large order, to cater for our event we had. They really went out their way to get it right for us, and labelled all the food with our own personalised labels. The food tasted so good and even though there were loads of pizzas and sides it was all very warm. We were very pleased with how helpful this store was and a big thank you to all the staff for the service we received.”

“Shopping experience turned into a nightmare. Mistreatment from Eurocarparks and dept collectors asking for £170 payment. I will never be using any Sainsbury's in any part of this country or my life. I would rather shop at Tesco, Morrisons, Aldi, Lidl etc. I never had this issue with them and it would cost much lower as well because I wouldn't get ridiculous fines like this. Edit: Today I have received response from Sainsbury's that they have cancelled the PCN and that I do not need to take any further action. Thank you Sainsbury's. Can't express enough about how much of a relief this was for me.”

“First time eating here and can confidently say it’s the best Chinese takeaway I’ve had in Brentwood. The wings & ribs and duck spring rolls are a must have.”

“Halal chinese authentic food - can’t go wrong with this place. The prices are fair and i have been here a few times.”

“After reading the reviews of the Swan I was in two minds about trying it, but I'm glad I did, staying opposite in the Premier inn and fancied a chinese. Best ribs I've had for years, so tender and tasty, we had quite a big order and to be fair all of it was good, good sized portions and the price was cheaper than at home in London, will definitely be back if in the area just for the ribs.”

“Am from the north. Seen all bad reviews and I still ordered as others peoples opinion don’t matter to mine. Mrs loves this place and every time I am down here I have to get the chicken omelet. It’s to die for. Fresh hot and lovely food. Will come back every time I wm in Essex”

“Well stocked convenience store and good range of products available”

“Food is good, reasonably priced.”
