Food & Drink in Southend

With a diverse range of over 400 restaurants, and a huge selection of bars and pubs to match, Southend really does have something for everyone. Are you looking to have a casual drink and meal with friends, or are you planning a romantic silver service dinner? Southend has a restaurant to satisfy every taste and budget. If you need a break from high street shopping, you're probably already within sight of somewhere to pop in for a cake and coffee. Or a pint of lager and a packet of a crisps.

Everyone loves a bit of fish and chips at the seaside in the Summer and a hot traditional pub meal in the Winter. But for the Southend dining experience that we are best known for, you need to visit one of our many seafood restaurants, our time-honoured cuisine prepared with fresh seafood caught locally. The humble fishing village of Old Leigh is bursting with history and culture. Famed for its cockle sheds, old pubs and seafood restaurants along the cobble paved streets, the fact that Old Leigh hasn't changed too much since the 1800's adds to its charm, making this seaside village a favourite for an intimate dining experience.
