I have visted the Merry Fiddlers recently and was given a warm reception by the land lady and her husband.The atmosphere was friendly with lots of locals in the bar, which served good real ales and a good selection of lagers.My partner and me ate in the restaurant and the food and service was excelltent.
The Merry Fiddlers – EppingWas sorely disappointed with Catch. Found the owner to be abrupt, the service whilst pleasant was a bit shoddy and most importantly the food was not up to scratch. Think this place relies on it's marketing as opposed to it's cuisine. Pay more attention to the quality of the food is my advice and try not to rely on the 'happy chappy' routine to sway customers!
Catch Fish Restaurant – Buckhurst HillGood fish
Perrys Fish and Chips – Southend On SeaExtremely rushed - main meal, dessert and bill paid within an hour - including drinks!
The Brickyard Bar & Grill – Romfordseriously over priced. the food was small portions, the wine tasted as though someone had brewed it in an old church. the music..........just some teenagers performing karaoke. absolute joke. will not be going there again. as for the mouse droppings in the toilets. one can only presume the kitchen must be awful.
Ten Green Bottles – Leigh On Seawent to the cheese and wine tasting night. all the cheeses were "OFF" it seemed like they had been on display already for about 2 months, plus they charged me £25 for a load of off cheeses and "HOME BREWED WINE" absolute rip off. will not be going there again.
Ten Green Bottles – Leigh On SeaThe most awful experience I have ever had. The food was overpriced for what it was. The service was terrible - the waiting staff attempted to remove my drink before it was finished and actually removed my plate while I was still eating - and I mean literally putting a forkful in my mouth! There was no break between the main course and dessert menu and the dessert arrived in 5 mins. We were then presented with a bill and the debit/credit card payment machine. We sat down to our main meal at 7pm and we had finished our meal by 8pm! NOT a relaxing event. We then decided to attend the 'club'. The music was awful and there were plenty of women in the ladies complaining about it too. We were also told to move by a security officer - who was originally positioned outside, to make space for a regular to have her normal position - after she had gone to ask him to move us on. Allegedly, the place was 'reserved' but had no reservation label and we had been sitting there for a good couple of hours beforehand. However, the icing on the cake was the 'high five' the regular gave the security guard after moving us on. Seriously, you couldn't pay me to go there again - I have never been to a more unprofessional venue.
