Delicious in Upminster

“I cant fault this place For authentic Thai food this is the one Super fresh great tasting fantastic value for money too”

“Good cafe. Been coming here for a few years and have never been disappointed. Good selection of food and the bubble & squeak is this best I have ever had. The lovely man who runs the cafe is so lovely and friendly. Highly recommend this cafe.”

“Just come home, what a fantastic meal we had, everything from food, service and atmosphere was all perfect! Not sure how long this little gem has been here but 100% recommend and will be back, 2 courses and a bottle of wine about £65pp and we have enough food for dinner tomorrow which we was able to box up. So impressed thank you!”

“We were welcomed on entering by Costa Vishal and Arizona they were extremely helpful and polite and made us feel special especially as my brother has recently had his cataract operated on and wasn’t feeling too good it made him feel much better. Thank you so very much x”

“Exceptional service and very kind staff. Would recommend as this is my go to pizza place. :)”

“Been here several times for breakfast. Always friendly, polite and the service is good. Food is good and plentiful, but can get quite busy.”

“Delicious food, I can wholeheartedly recommend chicken milanese burger and salmon and prawns pasta. Fresh and delicious!”

“Well... I've never used this indian before but i was pleasantly surprised. I orderd a meal for delivery at 10.40pm (20 mins before closing) and they still accepted my order even though it was going to take around 40 mins to deliver, as a first time customer this surprised me. The food was still hot when delivered and the delivery guy was very pleasant. Down to the grub... We had shami kebab and onion bhaji for starters and they where some of the best we've ever eaten, and we've had a few Indian meals in our time. I forgot the name of main we had but it was spiced chicken in a light tangy sauce with ginger, chilli and onions. Once again this was beautifully made and tasty. The rice and naan breads we had were also spot on and the bombay potatoes were beautiful. So, if you're hungry and are in two minds about picking this restaurant i hope my review may help you in your choice.”

“think this is one of the best Costa Coffee outlets in the Havering area of outer London. It is run with super efficiently and a lot of care is taken to meet any special requests such as extra hot etc etc I do not know how long the young lady whose name i understand is Valentina has been at Costa but she certainly seems to be very experienced.She stays calm and organised even when it is very busy. I like to give praise where praise is deserved and she certainly deserves it. She has the perfect manner for dealing with the public and makes the minimum fuss about it. A credit to Costa ! Her colleagues are very good too and no doubt are recipients of good advice from Valentina. Thank you Paul”

“Great place to shop. Always get a parking space around 11am during the week. Lovely staff, always helpful”

“It always surprises me why we do not go more often to Iceland as it always has what we want at very reasonable prices. The Iceland in Upminster is very convenient as it has parking close by and the buses and train station is only a short walk. The only criticism would be that they do not have enough staff on the tills but having said that the queues do move quickly.”

“Amazing person ☺️ fresh vegetables, very polite before we couldn’t find anything. What we want. Now there’s a lot of items to choose from amazing service”

“Friendly staff, Excellent food and very fast”

“We ordered sushi on the website and by accident I placed the order twice. The restaurant kindly called me to clarify which I really appreciate. The food quality was amazing, and the portions good. We were pleasantly surprised to find two mochis as a thank you for the order :). We will definitely order from them again!”

“really cute venue serving up delicious homemade cakes. Coffee is tasty, but the cakes are the star of the show. Try the honey cake!”

“Nice little cafe with indoor and outdoor seating. Does banging breakfasts and fresh ground coffee Staff are very nice and friendly”

“This is my new favourite cafe!! It's got so much better over time. I must Go there atleast once a week or I start missing it!!! Have tried a lot of other cafes but this is the best one so far. Even my friend comes from Barkingside to eat here with me!!! Amazing paninis! And smoothies too! Lovely staff, so friendly and welcoming, all smiles!! Edited to add: Oct 2024 and still the best one for a jacket potato!!”

“Wow what a little Gen, wife suggested here as she goes with colleagues for lunch. Best eggs benedict I have ever had. Staff are fantastic and the place is spotless. Thank you so much, we will be back again. Xx”

“Lovely café with great vibes! I had such a great experience at this café — cozy atmosphere, friendly staff, and absolutely delicious food and drinks. The coffee was smooth and rich, and the pastries were fresh and full of flavor. I also appreciated the little touches like comfy seating, fast Wi-Fi, and clean, well-kept surroundings. It’s the kind of place where you can relax, catch up with friends, or get some work done. Service was quick and welcoming, and everything felt really well thought out. Highly recommend if you’re in the area — I’ll definitely be back!”

“The Garden Coffee Shop & Diner is a delightful find — cozy, welcoming, and full of charm. From the moment I walked in, the friendly staff made me feel right at home. The menu has something for everyone, whether you're after a hearty breakfast, a light lunch, or just a great cup of coffee. I had the smoked haddock, and it was cooked to perfection — fresh, tasty, and beautifully presented. The portions are generous and the prices are very reasonable. What really sets this place apart is the atmosphere — it’s relaxed and inviting, with a real community feel. You can tell it’s run with care and love. I’ll definitely be back soon. Highly recommend!”

“Quick service, friendly staff and fresh and tasty food. Value 4 money too.”

“Easily cheaper than the other local options, better quality food too and greater quantities of good with the orders. The garlic bread with cheese is delicious and never let's you down. Take it from a Turk. They're good at what they do and they are our regulars now. Teşekkürler Effendim”
