Dining room in Grays

“We tried this restaurant as we just moved to the area. What a pleasant surprise. The food was lovely, abundant and at a very reasonable price. We loved the atmosphere and the team is so welcoming. Excellent customer service, we felt pampered and at home. Much recommended.”

“I invested in Bethan Gray's Brogue leather coffee table a number of years ago and admire it in my living room every day. Beautiful piece and top class workmanship.”

“My wife and I had a lovely experience at the store. Martin B who assisted us was very friendly and walked us through everything we needed to know. He explained about our purchase and went through all the details of the product very well.”

“We were helped today from Chandni who was so incredibly helpful - she listened to our criteria and made the best and honest recommendation which ended up being much cheaper and at great quality in comparison to a competitor we were originally considering. She was super kind and accommodating which made the experience seamless. Excited to come again!”

“Ady was an absolute pleasure to deal with. Communication was clear and quick throughout, and everything was exactly as described. The whole process felt smooth and hassle-free. Really appreciate the professionalism and would happily buy from Ady again. Highly recommended!”

“Excellent customer service by Darryl today in the Thurrock store. We spent a long time choosing the right table then chairs, Darryl went above and beyond! Even matched the 5% discount we would have got online with our Smartsave app! Highly recommend!”

“We had our daughter’s birthday party here today and had a wonderful time. Friendly and helpful staff, lovely food and the party room was great! Highly recommend booking a party at Rock Up Lakeside.”

“You can’t go wrong with IKEA! Also really great to just arrive there and have a ridiculously cheap breakfast before you walk around. I think it’s an absolutely wonderful idea and I hope they keep doing it for a long time. The place wasn’t too busy, even though it was a Sunday, and the checkouts were fast. It’s always an easy place to get around, and you always seem to find exactly what you want to fill in those little spots in the house.”

“We visited here for Afternoon Tea with Father Christmas. We were a large group of 10 (adults and children). The venue was beautifully decorated for the festive season. Food was delicious and offered alternatives for the vegetarians in our group. Joe Banana was the entertainer for the afternoon and he did not disappoint. The Father Christmas was very good. Plenty of activities for the children to keep them occupied. Would definitely return.”

“We were served by Scott today and he was very friendly and helpful. My mum managed to get her curtains and cushions from the Thurrock store and we loved having a good look round all the departments. We also had a pot of tea in the cafe which was lovely. There’s so much to browse in store that we need a tea break! Dunelm is one of our favourite shops and we always head there first for beautiful quality housewares.”

“Very clean Hotel. Excellent Customer service. Asta was very kind to explain us well. Had a good night sleep and value for money.”

“I generally like this store. Good selection of all household products plus the blingey bits for your house..... But service is terrible only two tills working. And o so slow. And when there is no bar code and they put a call out for someone to come it takes ages. And all the time the queue just gets longer. Pehaps it would be better especially when it's busy to open all the tills to keep customers Moveing...”

“My favourite home store! I bought a dinner plate set but when I opened the box at home one of the plates was completely cracked. I came back the next day and exchanged them with no hassle and the staff were very helpful”

“Christmas party night. Good food, good service, good DJ. Tables nicely decorated. Reasonable price. We had a great time.”

“My favourite furniture shop in the UK! Good quality furniture at great prices. Our whole hone is furnished from here!”

“Location is fantastic . We decided to stay over after a visit to Lakeside and go out to the boom battle bar. The staff were all lovely from reception to the breakfast staff . Breakfast was very nice , good quality sausages and lots of cereals, pastries. Would stay here again . Basic but had everything we needed”

“Came to collect a sofa and needed help getting it into my car but thank god for Joe Cann who stayed past his hours to help me out!”

“Star Boy Grill in Essex serves some of the best African food I've had—it's now my go-to after trying all the top spots in London and Essex. The Jollof rice is incredible, easily some of the best I've tried, and the plantains are always perfectly cooked, never too ripe or too hard. If you're craving great Suya, this place is a must. The owner’s hospitality and the lively music create an unforgettable experience. Highly recommended!”

“I'm sure other people have had bad experiences but honestly I couldn't fault our experience with Fabb Lakeside at all. The sales rep (can't remember name, sorry!! Lady with a Brummy accent?!) was so polite and friendly and definitely not at all pushy. We came back twice really unsure whether to go ahead and buy the sofa but at no point at all felt pressured.. in fact it was totally relaxed. She was very helpful when we had questions. We were told about 6 weeks which seemed very good for a large corner suite and would have been satisfied even if it took a little longer but 6 weeks after purchasing we got our call to say it's ready for delivery. Delivery was quick and tidy, they took all the rubbish with them. Genuinely couldn't fault a single step in the process. Maybe we were the lucky ones but considering we're super happy with our sofa and it was about £1000 cheaper than similar sofas elsewhere, I'd still say to consider this place!”

“I went to sofology thurrock with my dad today There today we had a look around at all of the sofas they have there at sofology thurrock They have a very lovely selection of sofas at sofology thurrock It was so lovely looking at all fo the sofas They looked very soft and comfy You have very lovely sofas at sofology thurrock I really like looking a their sofas and my dad does as well Kind and friendly staff Lovely service This place gets it's very first 5 out of 5 star rating by me Enjoy reading your google review by me Have a lovely rest of your day 5 stars all around”

“Great knowledge and very helpful.”

“Donna was fantastic, she helped us choose and design our dream kitchen. She is obviously very experienced and knows her stuff. She wasn't pushy and has a great personality. We are really pleased with the quality of the units and service provided. Would highly recommend! Thank you Donna!”

“I have had my Epping sofa for a month now and I'm so pleased with it! It’s really good quality and really comfortable. I was so impressed Clint’s customer service from the lakeside pop up store. He was really helpful and helped me choose which sofa was best for me and my family. I couldn’t recommend Sofa club or Clint enough and will definitely order from them again in the future.”

“Helpful, obliging, not particularly expensive. Also repair electrical appliances at a reasonable cost. Sorry they moved from grays to South Ockendon as they were only a 10 minute walk from where I live. If what you want isn't in stock they will order it for you. A friend of mine had a new hob supplied and fitted, and highly recommends them”
