Southend is crying out for a daytime event like this and it has tons of potential.
Really well priced £35 for unlimited beer & prosecco/ £45 for all drinks including cocktails / £15 for soft drinks. All ordered through the app and very easy!
You get a huge sharer portion of nachos - Really good. And then a choice of a main, all the usual suspects on there, a really good number of options for a brunch menu.
Service was excellent, super friendly, on the ball with top ups etc.
Atmosphere was great, they’d cleared the restaurant for the brunch and it really worked well.
Looking forward to going again!! read less

New building no no All food was really lovely can not fault it at all but must say I really dislike the new building compared to the previous site.

We’ve been coming to Mangetout since they were in the little place round the corner and it’s ace to see it go from strength to strength without forgetting that that main thing that matters is the quality of the food (and good service!). read less

As usual burgers are very good . You don’t get fries with this, that’s fine as burger is a meal in itself.
One issue was BBQ wings were cold so waiter staff happy to replace it without question .
Ordered one dessert , got given two which I assume was because of the chicken wings .
Staff are every polite and professional . Easy to order on their app , very easy app to use .
Would recommend this place to visit. 4* given for wings otherwise it’s a 5* all the way read less

Amazing Vegan Options! Beautiful Food The Vegan options at Mangetout are incredible, both Vegan Burgers are insane! Service was brilliant, the waiter was lovely and couldn't do more for us!... read moreThe Vegan options at Mangetout are incredible, both Vegan Burgers are insane! Service was brilliant, the waiter was lovely and couldn't do more for us! even turned into our little Photographer at one point. BBQ Beans are randomly the best thing I've ever tasted in my life, everything we ordered came perfectly (even the fussy things) the only downside was the wait time, we did wait around an hour for food but apart from that everything was great! and I want more BBQ Beans. Sister even got a free Cocktail as it was her Birthday and they came out with her Cake singing to her, even let us eat it there and gave us plates and cutlery for it which was sweet.
Coming back for the Christmas Menu! read less

My partner and I are vegan so we had the buttered mushrooms, a vegan burger and the rocky road brownie for dessert. The service was great and everyone was super friendly. We went to their new location and the interior was clean, warm and inviting. We were greeted as soon as we entered and seated immediately. My only negative was the discretionary service charge. I hate paying for service and while I realise it’s optional it’s frustrating to have to ask to have it removed and I prefer to tip my waiter or waitress directly. Which is why I removed one star on my rating. read less

Fab food Fab meal and atmosphere and great service too. I can't wait to try new premises even packed my food up as couldn't eat it all.

Had booked in on a Sunday for the roast not realising they’re not currently serving it but certainly not a problem when their normal menu is so good. If you like burgers, BBQ and smoked meats this is a great place to visit. Staff really nice and helpful as always. read less

We hadn’t booked but fancied a bite to eat before the cinema, after a short wait were Seated and given menus.
Having mentioned we were going to the cinema the waiter mentioned there was a wait of 20-30 minutes for food and checked that would be ok, it would have met a hurried meal but we ordered anyway, for our food to arrive after just a few minutes.
The waiter spoke to the kitchen and prioritised our food so that we wouldn’t have to rush.
Just a small detail, but one that meant a lot.
I can’t recommend this place highly enough. read less
