Never had a bad meal here...staff are lovely, food is excellent quality, plenty of choices & reasonably priced. Occasionally have to queue but it’s a small place & totally worth it! Thank you!
Always worth queuing up in the cold for. Every day is a good day for the best ever Oliver family restaurant in my opinion. Bonus is that anyone can get in and keeps the Leigh mums and their reservations at bay...
Wonderful homemade pies and Honeycomb Sundae worth breaking the diet.
Only waited 20 minutes yesterday , the busiest day of the year in sunny Southend . The staff were very friendly ... my 93 year old Nan bless here was saying to me “ They all know me , I’m allowed to go inside & sit down and wait “ lol ... To my astonishment she wasn’t lying ... All the staff know my sweet Nan as she is a regular and absolutely loves the place & they treat her like the Queen ... I cannot fault the service , the staff are lovely and my food ( Liver , bacon on bubble & squeak ) was delicious , piping hot & so much flavour . Prices are very reasonable, & I will definitely be returning .
Just love this place, alway's waiting outside in the car for a table but really worth it.
Staff are so friendly and polite.
I would recommend this place.10 our of 10.
Fantastic, friendly service. The food is absolutely delicious. Tiny space so they do so well to achieve what they do. Demand is huge and quite rightly so for this fab place. Great view of the sea too.
Had a lovely 2 course lunch here yesterday. Portions were huge, food was delicious, staff were friendly and helpful. Can't wait to come back!
Just had the most amazing breakfast. Lovely staff, great food.
Had a really lovely lunch here today, plenty of veggie options and also vegan! The food was was amazing and the staff were really friendly. Loved the quirky décor too. Will be back again the next time I am in Southend.
Went for the first time yesterday for lunch, was told about 15-20 minute wait but only 10 minutes. The staff were really friendly and attentive but not intrusive as you can get someplaces. The food was delicious and reasonably priced. Will definitely be returning.
I love this place, the food is always amazing especially the alternative breakfast. Staff are always welcoming and smiling. The kitchen is tiny and it's impressive to see the food they turn out so well presented!
Always enjoyable great food, friendly staff and its DOG friendly ��
Small cabin so I can imagine the frustration of having to wait. Arrived for an early breakfast and boy it didn't disappoint - amazing.
Popped into Oliver's recently and already planning to go again. Services was great (especially as we were the last customers of the day!), so accommodating! The view was amazing with the tide all the way in... and the food was DELICIOUS! Both myself and my partner had the fish and chips.. Possibly the best we've had! We got pudding to takeaway which was equally delicious! (We were too excited for it to take pictures!) We had very happy tummies. Would absolutely recommend!
Lovely cafe with tasty food, very welcoming and friendly service. We had fish and chips, squid rings, battered fish platter and butternut squash soup. Everything was delicious, especially the apple and blackberry crumble with custard.
Lovely little place for a meal with the sea view.
They have limited tables and there is no booking in advance - you can either wait or they put your name on the list and take your number when you arrive and call you when a table is ready. The menu is varied and all produce is fresh. They good is lovely.
This is a lovely little Restaurant with great views of the sea.
The service is amazing. Staff are super friendly and helpful. Very attentive and accommodating. The decor is rustic, well designed and put together. Giving you a real beach hut experience.
Food was really good. Healthy Home Cooked Food. Children's menu was also so good with real chicken nuggets. Not your fast food rubbish.
Definitely would visit this place again on our next visit. Dessert menu was great too. Oh and the tea pot for one was generous.
A great little spot with a view, literally on the Beach. If you fell out the window you'll fall in the sea...literally.
My wife and I decided to come down for lunch today having not been here before, and it was brilliant. The food was superb, as was the service. It is a lovely little restaurant with great views over the estuary and a warm atmosphere. A real gem, and one that we will revisit very soon.
Fantastic place, lovely food, good friendly service to boot, Well worth a visit if in the area.
Superb and huge roast beef dinner with cauliflower cheese, can't fault anything, loads of gravy , not had a bad meal yet. Unfortunately there wasn't a scrap left on the plate!!! Staff are really lovely and do anything to accommodate you despite the limited covers, it's worth a wait for a table.
The best smoked salmon I have ever tasted (Eggs Royale). Lovely view of the sea and Kent coast, a bit like being on a ferry 😄 service is friendly and fast. Coffee good. My second breakfast there, and will definitely come again 🌞🌞👍
As promised by our boys based upon the bacon and salmon that they enjoyed, tea pots and the lady who kindly brought us in from the cold... a 5* review.
Staff show respect and concern for each other, gave good local advice (but the hotel they said was tired has been refurbed!) and the food was served freshly prepared and cooked. With such great ingredients, they gave each of us a tasty and filling meal - only eyes bigger than belly syndrome stopped all the breakfast being eaten.
A fantastic start to our day - even if I am still in recovery from the loo door 😂
Lovely little ocean front cafe. We visited for breakfast and opted for the eggs royale.....its was absolutely delicious. The staff were friendly also
Would definitely return.
