Seating in Brentwood

“Dined on a Saturday evening but hadn't made a reservation, therefore not much choice in seating, but got a table at the front of the restaurant. Looked to be a larger dining area further in. Staff were very attentive and answered questions about the dishes. Great menu with lots of choice. I ate from the festive set menu, which has plenty of choice. The 2 chillies by the Chilli Chicken stir-fry are warranted, my mouth was on fire by the end of the dish! I'd certainly visit again, but would try something different next time.”

“Living close to the merchant we are regular visitors. All the team are super welcoming and friendly especially Lily & Morgan. Bouncers are always polite. Our favourite local”

“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 !”

“A friend recommended me to Laura, and I’m so glad she did. I used to hate having my hair coloured but now I actually look forward it. Laura is extremely talented and I always walk away absolutely loving my hair! Before my first visit, we spoke on the phone and I explained my concerns about the condition of my hair and Laura took the time to talk me through my options and what would be best for my hair. She’s such a wonderful human being, and I honestly have such a lovely time when I’m there! Everybody always comments on my hair now too, which I’ve never had before. I’d definitely recommend a visit to her, you won’t regret it!”

“Exceptional Italian cuisine! We had a superb meal, staff were very attentive and the food was delicious. Can’t wait to come back!”

“Just had mine and my daughters hair cut done here by Harry. He had his work cut out with mine it was awful long dead and lifeless and he revived its amazing. Looks so much healthier and alive again lolz. Lovely friendly atmosphere. Thankyou so much. Very highly recommended.”

“Great environment. Small shop with three stations to cut the hair but very cozy. People very friendly and professionals. They pay very much attention to details in the cut. Great service and chat. Music is also good. Football on TV too. Price is in the UK average. Car park very easy, at least during weekends based on my experience. Highly suggested.”

“Friendly staff, great tasting food and generous portion size. I would highly recommend”

“First used this barber when I lived local ie Beech Spinney, now live in Brentwood town and am still more than happy to travel back to use this Barber, cannot get my hair cut any cheaper than here, good value for money, and good topics of conversation, Barbers in and around Brentwood are at least £10 dearer. Happy Customer. Thank you.”

“Another wonderful lunch with an incredibly delicious food.”

“Great play area suitable for a variety of ages and great accessibility.”

“The front of house chap is so friendly and welcoming - a real asset to the team! Our waiter was very attentive and made sure we had everything we needed whilst also being accommodating to our slight dish changes, he was also friendly and warm. Food was stunning - as always! Thank you to the whole team at Alec’s for always being consistently good and keeping me coming back for more!”

“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 .”

“Only went in for a couple before visiting other pubs and I was pleasantly surprised. I'd never been here before so didn't really know what to expect, and this place was great! Lovely staff, good atmosphere and a decent pint of Guinness. The locals were friendly too. I'd recommend giving this place a go.”

“A rare thing indeed these days... A real pub”

“Superb customer service from this family run business. Very competitively priced with excellent quality furniture. We live outside their delivery area so they organised alternative arrangements and delivered on our timetable. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend them!!”

“We enjoyed a delicious afternoon tea. A delightful selection of sandwiches and cakes. Very generous helping of cream and strawberry jam accompanied warm scones both fruit and plain. We also enjoyed a delicious individual mini mousse made with chocolate and Baileys. An excellent large pot of tea, and we were offered more tea/ coffee if we wanted. We also enjoyed a very good glass of champagne which was an optional extra. Our waiter was friendly and welcoming, all served in a lovely setting.”

“We love this little family restaurant. Whenever we visit family in Brentwood from our home on the South Coast we try to eat here. It always feel’s homely. We have young grandchildren and they enjoy the pizzas very much. Nothing is ever too much trouble, and service always excellent . We are looking forward to our Christmas visit very much. .”

“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”

“Big portion with economic price! Very yummy too! Do come early as they are packed when we went for lunch!”

“Breakfast was lovely and fresh. I’m coeliac but the cafe manager was very understanding, she talked through options I could have. She was very helpful and we’ve already planned to come back next week. The other staff were very pleasant and welcoming also. 5 stars thank you Barnyard cafe Team.”

“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!”

“just been this amazing cafe.. food was lovely, fresh and didn’t wait long for it, proper poached eggs (not done in a little cup thing) so much to choose from and just loved it all from the quirky tables to the fab music playing !! Highly recommended !!!”

“I am delighted to take this opportunity to express my sincere appreciation for the wonderful pizza party that was organised for my daughter's seventh birthday. The event exceeded all of our expectations and left a lasting impression on all the guests who attended. The level of service provided was truly exceptional, with the staff demonstrating a perfect blend of professionalism and warmth throughout the duration of the party. The activities that were planned for the children were not only engaging but also well-thought-out, ensuring that every child had a fantastic time. A special mention must be made for Billie, whose presence and leadership truly made a significant impact on the overall success of the party. The children adored her and her enthusiasm was contagious. I wholeheartedly recommend this venue for hosting parties, not only for children but also for adults such as business gatherings and team-building activities. The experience we had was unforgettable, and I am confident that others will also benefit from the outstanding services offered by this establishment. Once again, thank you for making my daughter's birthday so special. We look forward to celebrating future events with you. Warm regards, Catherine and Neil Turnbull”
