Food and entertainment in Loughton

“Fab shop and the vets are absolutely lovely, best in the area hands down. Had to come here after Goddard Wanstead had been messing my kitten around from 3 months old, I still couldn't get an appointment when he was 10 months old (after repeated calls, cancellations and mistakes on their end). So grateful Vets 4 Pets got us in quickly and easily and the vet that dealt with us was so kind.”

“Run, do not walk here... unless it's up the hill then take the walk at a brisk pace. They have recently redecorated but that's not the only reason why. They are now serving Chuck & Brisket, a small menu filled with the absolute best burgers I have tasted. Forget Dead Hippies from Meat Liquor, or Shake Shack. The cheeseburgers here are juicy, mouth-watering and the most delicious brioche meat sandwiches I'vehad in a very long time. The patties taste incredible and are so moist. I couldn't fault it and I was a little sad when it was over. Their skin-on fries transported me to my grandmother's kitchen, for me, a comfort food. I would absolutely come back here, and implore any newcomers and regulars to try their delightful menu, otherwise you would be doing yourself a disservice. You will not regret it.”

“I'd like to thank the lovely man who was on the Argos desk on Wednesday 3rd November. He was so helpful with something I had been looking for but not been able to order & then helped me to the car with another item I'd ordered which was too heavy for me. Thank you so much.”

“I wanted to say what a lovely, welcoming, warm place this is. It's not only a good place for my son, it's a good place for me. It's a great way to meet other mums, and other children to connect and play. It's clean, fun, and the staff are so friendly I will really miss them as I'm moving to another area. I hope I find somewhere that we love and visit as regularly as this place. Cant recommend enough! X”

“I just had dinner here and I am very impressed. The food was delicious, everything was just perfect. I have absolutely nothing to say that could be better. I had 3 different starters as main main meal and that's quite a lot food. My friend had shish kebab which I tried and the meat just melted in my mouth. Very tender! In addition,they bring big plate with variety of salads, olives, yoghurt and dill dip and some tomato dip with home made pita bread to every table. The restaurant itself looked also very stylish. Seems they pay attention to every detail, including the business cards which were very stylish too. The restaurant was full with people who seemed to be regulars there, therefore,it speaks about the quality of the food. I live in central London and that's long way to go there for dinner, however, I would gladly return soon.”

“Very friendly, popular pub. Speedy service. Excellent cheese sandwich with salad. Reminded me of Essex pubs as they used to be!”

“Fabulous selection of everything you could want, toys, board games, outdoor games, ride on vehicles, video games, jigsaw puzzles, birthday cards... a real superstore! Spacious, clean, friendly and useful staff (especially in the video games counter). Hard to avoid. Competitive prices although not always the cheapest. Great car park too.”

“A group of us come here regularly on weekends for the lively atmosphere and the friendly staff. Always happy to see Joe behind the bar who is very helpful in any situation :)”

“We booked Barbie for my daughters 5th and we got Aimee. She was an amazing entertainer, the kids were so happy and was completely shocked I knew Barbie personally! I’ve even had requests for “Barbie” to come and visit the museum with us on the weekend! Would totally recommend Aimee and Magical Parties very well organised!!”

“Visited last weekend for a party. Food was absolutely amazing, nothing was a problem for the staff. Friendly and engaging staff, Michelle and Navin can certainly put a party together. Would recommend 100% and will definitely visit again”
