The outdoor tables are a lovely little sun trap. Staff were friendly, and the Guinness was well-kept. A comfortable spot to while away an afternoon.

This pub has a great atmosphere, especially during rugby matches, and the drinks were good, making it a fun place to visit.

The Sunday roast is a solid choice. I really appreciated the generous portion of fresh, seasonal vegetables that came with it. The pork crackling was crisp, and the roast potatoes still had a nice texture even though we dined later. A good, hearty meal.

Best pizza I&rsquo;ve had in ages, even compared to Rome. Grabbed a quick lunch here, super fast service. The pub is nice and roomy inside. They only do pizza, but it&rsquo;s a proper good one.

Had a work lunch here for a big group. Food came out quick and hot, which was a relief. Staff kept things moving smoothly. No fuss, got us in and out on time.

The Sunday roast was pretty good. We had the sharing lamb leg - decent portion for the price. The Belvedere room is a bright, pleasant spot for a relaxed lunch.

Love catching a game here. The energy is just right - buzzing but you can still hear your mates. Staff are on it, drinks kept coming without having to flag anyone down. Solid spot for a match.

Lovely old pub, always busy. The food looked fantastic on other tables, but the portions seemed a bit small for the price. My fish and chips was &pound;18, and honestly, I was still a bit peckish afterwards.

Been going here for years, it&#39;s a proper local. Staff know your name, and the prices haven&#39;t gone mad like other places. Live music on Fridays is a nice touch, keeps the place lively.

It was my Grandson&#39;s First Birthday - we had been eating sausage Rolls and sandwiches all day but by the evening needed a proper meal !! We read reviews and it sounded good so we gave it a try. We are not local so it was our first time. We have been to various carveries before but I have to say your food was the best I had eaten at this type of Restaurant. All the meat was tender and moist and the roast potatoes in beef fat were the best ever. In fact all the vegetables were lovely. we agreed that on our next visit to Southend we would take my daughter, her husband and our Grandson for a treat. The atmosphere was cosy and the staff were all friendly and helpful.In particular our waitress Mandy was really friendly and funny. It really made a difference to our visit. we will recommend and be back next time we are in the area.

Just popped in for a quick drink with a friend. Ordered on the app and it was at our table in minutes. Perfect for a spontaneous catch-up when you don&#39;t want a whole meal. The vibe was nice and relaxed.

Collins at the bar really knew his stuff. He suggested a cocktail I&#39;d never have ordered myself, and it was spot on. Great energy behind the bar too, kept things lively. A real pro.

The pre-ordered dishes for our big group came out perfectly timed. Made the whole evening so relaxed.

Dog-friendly spot, they had treats at the bar for my pup which was nice. We sat outside. The portion for the fish and chips was decent for the price, not huge but okay.

Really liked the vibe here. The menu&#39;s got a bit of everything, which was nice for a first visit. I went for the fish and chips &ndash; the batter was super crispy and the chips were proper chunky. Solid pint to go with it.

The cocktails were a bit pricey, but the setting in the old opera house is incredible.

Service was quick and friendly, even with special requests.

The festive menu was lovely, but I really appreciated the fresh, seasonal ingredients in my salad. Made it feel like a healthy choice amidst the holiday indulgence.

Been coming here for years, and the food&#39;s always been spot on. That&#39;s what keeps me coming back.

The manager&#39;s really turned this place around. The vibe is spot on, nice decor, and the regulars are a friendly bunch. Had a pint and just soaked it in.

I really enjoyed my time at Sutton&#39;s! The atmosphere is vibrant, and the food is tasty. Special thanks to Mia and Maryna for their outstanding service!

Had a nice lunch at this cosy pub. The duck was lovely, but the real star was the lamb roast. Paired it with a robust Malbec from their list &ndash; that really made the dish sing. A bit pricey, but a solid spot for a proper meal.

Came here for a casual dinner with friends. The food arrived quickly, which was nice. I had the grilled salmon salad - the greens were really fresh and crisp, and the fish was cooked just right. A solid, healthy option on their menu. The portion felt a bit small for the price, but the quality of the ingredients was clear.

Been coming here for years and the sticky toffee pudding is always spot on. That&#39;s why I keep coming back.

Hannah and the team are top notch. Always attentive, never rushed. They remember my usual order and even suggested a new wine that paired perfectly. Makes coming here feel like a proper local spot.

The beer garden is huge and has heaters, so it&#39;s great for hanging out with friends even when it gets a bit chilly.

Been coming here for years. The candle-lit tables are still just right for a quiet evening. That&#39;s the bit I keep coming back for.

The lamb shank on their Sunday roast was so good. Really tender, fell right off the bone. The beef and pork belly looked great too, portions are huge. Definitely need to book ahead though, it was packed!

Came back for the meat dish with Yorkshire pudding and it was just as good as their fish and chips! The portions are huge, perfect for sharing with a couple of mates. A solid spot for a casual catch-up.
