Amazing!! Went there for a late lunch on a Sunday expecting a normal experience. But right from the moment we stepped in to us leaving, everything was just great. Upon entering we were greeted with a smile and got seated quickly.
The staff was so friendly and made sure we knew they had halal fish options available(non beer batter) even before we asked her!
Portion size was massive, food was very tasty and even the dips were delicious, I really liked the pea mayo.
Loved the ambience as well. Loved it there and would definitely go back when I go Southend.
Wow - a great restaurant - food quality, service and atmosphere was excellent. We walked in and managed to get a table for 5 but I would book to avoid disappointment. Would highly recommend coming to The Seafood Shack to anyone visiting Southend on Sea.
Went here for an anniversary dinner, and was made to feel a million dollars, staff was amazing, service was quick, and food was outstanding. Will definitely return here in the near future. !! Highly recommend !!
Fantastic food at a reasonable price, great portion sizes and all served with happy efficient service. Cannot recommend highly enough, the dynamite prawn salad is particularly nice, but tbh everything is excellent.
This is the best space. Really fresh seafood and home made meals. It was really tasty, delicious and had huge portions.
Excellent service, relaxed atmosphere, clean space.
You need to try it.
We had just been to Majorca for holidays and my best meal of the two weeks was at Seafood Shack the day we got home. Great restaurant, food is top quality. I had the Skate Wing special and it was fantastic. Been three times now on our visits to the beach with or boy, and never disappoints. Very friendly staff and always a great meal
Amazing! A must visit!
Food was amazing. Service was great and Sandy the owner was very friendly and provided a warm welcome.
We'll definitely visit again to try their other dishes. We both had the surf and turf for mains. Tasty, nicely presented and the best chips I've had in a long time. For dessert I had the tiramisu and my partner the Eton Mess. We shared both and they were delicious.
Thank you to Sandy and staff for making our experience a great one.
If you haven't been you must!!! the Seafood Shack is fabulous and had a wonderful time from start to finish. The food is gorgeous, super tasty and the desserts are on a different level!!! Service from start to finish was amazing, Wendy, Sandy and team were lovely...thank you for making our visit so great ❤️
Just had a fabulous meal, the best sword fish I have ever had, went with 3 friends and all the meals were great. Services is excellent, beautiful decor and an all round great experience.
The hot crab dip is very impressive and highly recommended if you love rich and savoury dipping. A seafood restaurant with good atmosphere, reasonable price and fabulous service. Definitely worth to visit again.
Yesterday I visited the seafood shack for the first time with my daughter and friend, we were greeted by a lovely server, though I’m not sure of her name, but it really was a super welcoming and friendly environment.
My friend and I ordered the muscles and they were delicious, HUGE portion, so we decided to share!
The cocktails made by Lily were delightful and it was all so reasonably priced.
We will be returning again soon! Thank you, keep up the good work.
Great food, especially the haddock and chips cooked to perfection. Great seating area. Good hospitality. Well done seafood shack. Hope to come back soon.
We had a wonderful group meal here. The service was exceptional - they really went above and beyond and everything went perfectly. If you’re in Southend and fancy seafood - you have to go here. Delicious!
I don’t usually go out of my way to leave reviews, but the service at this restaurant simply HAS to be praised! We were greeted by friendly, smiling members of staff and they remained helpful and cheery right up until we left. There’s a lot of diversity on the menu, with something for everyone from meat lovers to die hard vegans. The calamari with sweet chilli sauce was delicious, hubby thoroughly enjoyed his haddock and chips and was pleasantly surprised by the portion. I ordered the luxury seafood salad and everything from the balsamic dressing and cocktail sauce to the smoked salmon was perfect. I definitely recommend this restaurant to everyone and it was definitely the highlight of our trip to southend-on-the-sea!🫶🏼❤️
Lovely place to stop for food if you're a seafood lover! Concise and balanced menu. Quick and attentive service and food was hot and well flavoured. Nice premium beer selection.
Great little restaurant!
They have a great selection of seafood (and meat/ vegan choices too) and the choice of beers not bad either.
I would high recommend any of the mussel dishes and the Hot mix. Really friendly, attentive staff.
Walk-in only at the moment...no reservations taken.
Looking forward to our revisit!
Had lunch here and we were well looked after. It’s a 10 odd minute walk from the main drag, but was worth it. Very nice bar, and two separate dining areas. Interior in a modern style. Had dressed oysters which were delicious. The surf and turf burger was nice, a bit salty for me and I would have liked it less cooked but it wasn’t given as a choice. The luxury seafood salad offered a proper helping of seas food and in a good size portion for the price. Well done Seafood shack.
Wonderful seafood restaurant bar. Booked a table 15 mins before arriving on a busy Saturday and they were able to accommodate including my dad who was in a wheelchair. The staff were very friendly and very accommodating. Top marks to them.
The ambience was great and we got talking to a couple on the next table local to the area who mentioned this place was quite a rowdy pub before becoming this restaurant. I’m glad it’s doing well
Food was excellent. Great portions and delicious. Loved the chips and mussels as the highlight. Some nice zero alcohol beers as well which I wasn’t expecting
Would throughly recommend this restaurant to all visitors.
