Lively restaurants near me in Grays

“Been going here since my daughter has been born. Now she's four & she still loves it. Since Covid/lockdown the cafe has changed owners & it is a massive improvement, better menu, much cleaner inside & outside. They have taken the bins directy outside the cafe which means a lot less bloody wasps. We just had a portion of chips, which argubly was a bit exspensive but they were very nice & the portion was big. The beach was & always is very clean, there is now a new play ship built which my daughter loved. Over the past year they have built a splash park with fountains etc. Again my daughter loved it, it was managed & kept clean very well. There is a small cost £2.70 for 25minites or £5 for an all day wrist band. Overall it was a good day at grays beach & its free, so whats better then that. Will defently be going back.”

“I have tried various boxes, and each of them tasted wonderful! Nevertheless staff member Madalena gave me great recommendations according to what I asked for! Definitely coming back to this place!”

“Super tasty food, fresh and delicious. And, not pricey at all. Will come again. Recommended.”

“The place is lovely and the food was amazing. The staff are welcoming and Jamal took care of us. He was very helpful and respectful and we really liked him. The way the food was presented was very posh and is nothing we have had experienced before. We most definitely going to come back and we highly recommended to everyone.”

“Super friendly, helpful & efficient staff. Food is excellent, super tasty and great value for money. In the last three weeks I’ve introduced two people to Tortilla’s, now they’re addicted. Just like me.”

“Delicious sushi, very fresh ingredients - fish was exquisite. Very impressed. We had the sushi sharer platter for two, will be coming back and planning to show my colleagues this place as we work nearby. Decent price for good sushi in London. Cool venue too with a streety-vibe, and very friendly staff.”

“First time at WM, mainly because their wasn't a huge queue to get in. Great food, will visit again.”

“I've been here a few times for home furniture. Great place, lovely design ideas for rooms and decent way to buy what you need. The food at the restaurant but is basic but good enough for a furniture store! No doubt will be back here again for more odd bits.”

“Great meal last sunday, father's day. It was absolutely packed but did not effected service at all. Obviously a little slow but we didn't mind. Good vegetarian options and amazing variety for meat eaters according to my other half. Cocktails were good too.”

“Literally haven't been here for years 20 +. Recent rumours were saying it was back to its best. Really nice atmosphere, excellent food with plenty of choice to suit all tastes. Spent £80 ish for 6 including starters and dessert (not everyone). But overall would highly recommend.”

“Lovely spot to drink (alcohol or otherwise) and eat Italian style in the centre of Lakeside shopping centre. Excellent breakfasts, set lunches and other meals, including antipasti, and desserts. Italian beers and a full range of cocktails and spirits.”

“Had the pleasure to celebrate my sister's graduation here, we was a group of 10. I was absolutely amazed at how well Valerie handled our table, met all our needs and more. couldn't stop raving about the quality of the food and the great value for money. We has such a wonderful experience and therefore gonna be going back for more. Keep up the good work Valerie and rest of the team.”

“Had a lovely meal here. Staff were up front about what wasn’t available and that they were short staffed. All staff we met were lovely, friendly and accommodating. Food was tasty and up to notch for Pizza Hut. Restaurant and restrooms were super clean.”
