Fresh fresh ingredients in Upminster

“Lovely people and lovely lunch. Possibly the best ever toast. We're clearing a house in the area and will be coming back for our lunch every week until we're done.”

“Excellent all round, ambience, service, menu, food was almost like being in Thailand! Authentic, modern and a must visit restaurant! Tried convincing the owner to add Thai style crab curry to the menu and I think we succeed, once it's an option we might end up in there every week!!! Cannot recommend enough, could do with a Mocktail menu but I'm just fishing for faults now. Great experience!”

“Was looking for a local cafe for a vegetarian breakfast with good reviews, we were originally going to another cafe but luckily we decided to try this little gem! We were warmly greeted and seated quickly (given we are in the midst of COVID19). We were given paper menus and all the tables were socially distance well with a track and trace QR code on the door too. It was really well protected and safe for the patrons of the cafe. Our order was taken and we were served an amazing fresh breakfast with a tea each, for me it was a perfect portion (not too much and not too little) and filled me up. Refills were free which was great value given that they came free with our breakfast. The food is fresh and tasty and I highly recommend the vegetarian to fellow veggies or those wanting a leaner option. The hostesses were all friendly and lovely people, from a little chat when ordering to a joke when paying, it made this little cafe pop out and make it feel more like you were at a friends or family members kitchen for brekkie. I only have praise for the ladies (didn’t see any men but if there was them too). Cost was shockingly low and when we were presented with the bill I thought something was missed off but I was told nope that’s all it is, I will be going back for all the reasons listed above. Plus at this price it makes it hard to even make my own brekkie for less. Highly recommend this to all and remember to tip and support these business in these times, they are going above and beyond to keep us safe. Huge thanks to all of the hostesses (and hosts)!”

“My parents are buried at the cemetery the tea room is fantastic as I travel from North Kent down to Essex it is lovely to have a drink first. The staff are lovely the prices are good”

“It was Mother’s Day, we were just passing and decided to have a look. It was very busy and fully booked for lunch but the staff were very helpful. We had a pot of excellent tea and soft drinks for the children, sitting on very comfy sofas. Staff were attentive, answered our questions and showed us the menu. We were all very impressed. Food looked iamazing. Great menu with lots of choice including plenty of vegetarian options. Prices were very reasonable too. We will definitely be returning for lunch.”

“Brilliant food and service! Very kind and friendly staff. Definitely recommend.”

“I recently visited the restaurant after 20 years when I used to go to on a weekly basis, since moving north I wanted to return ,I can honestly say I was not disappointed the staff were friendly the food was fresh good choice and I will be returning very soon. Thankyou”

“Thank you so much to cranham tandoori for making mums birthday so special, 11 of us all throughly enjoyed our meals, service was amazing I would never go to another Indian. Highly recommend anyone to go here! Love Sam xx”

“I often visit during the weekend when supporting young adults with autism the team are kind and supportive and very accommodating to what ever random food requests are made. The warm family welcome has made our young adults comfortable to order independently and to sit and eat. The food options are varied and reasonably priced. I would highly recommend for SEN families to visit for a meal and wander around the garden centre.”

“Friendly Staff and Lovely food at genuine honest prices and the portions are amazing even worth the drive back after we moved YUM”

“Wow, what a perfect venue and brilliant team. This is my second visit to The Station Pantry and both times it’s been for an evening celebration. Highly recommend private hire for any type of celebration as lots of different options available. Food is fantastic and so much to choose from, drinks are great and reasonably priced. However, best thing has to be the staff who are so friendly and accommodating. Huge thank you to Chantel and for hosting a brilliant night…again!”

“Always go in with family i come all the way from Mile End best Indian ive been in The owner and his brother are top blokes food is fantastic”

“Come here regularly and it is by far the best Indian in the area. The staff are attentive and friendly, always a good atmosphere and the food is some of the best I’ve had. The Karma Sutra is nothing like I’ve had anywhere else and the lamb in the dish was amazingly tender. I cannot wait for my next visit!”

“I stopped here with my crewmate while on our break at work as i’d heard really good reviews about it- wow! it was the best fish & chips we’ve ever had. Thank you so much to the boss, who was extremely generous to us, it was very much appreciated. I can definitely recommend this place. Hannah (London Ambulance Service)”

“Our first time at the Jobbers Rest. I booked a 3 course meal + wine courtesy of a freebie virgin experience and from the moment me & OH arrived, we were made welcome. Ordered cheese soufflé with sauce & beetroot terrine to start, confit duck dauphinois potatoes French beans & carrots & trout with brown shrimp potato rösti, then sticky toffee pudding ice cream & pistachio soufflé & ice cream. Even the house red was very good. Cappuccino’s were good too. All courses were beautifully prepared & cooked, especially the pistachio soufflé. The service was as good as in a top class restaurant, attentive but friendly. A special shout out to Lee, our waiter, what an excellent job he’s doing, paying close attention to everything. We’re looking forward to returning very soon. Would really recommend.”

“The best Fish & Chips in town, and good customer service ...”

“Excellent choice of food and at good prices. Have been several times and always been good”
