I'm still recovering for the amazing dinner I had. The personnel was fantastic, the food was delicious and the place very classy. We couldn't ask for any dessert because they also offered us some starters while we were waiting for our dishes, and we were so full! But we had some cocktails (they have really interesting drinks on their menu)

Davey's

Davey's was a recommendation to me and I'm so glad I took it up, the restaurant wasnt even half full but there was a lovely atmosphere, it was a proper local restaurant where people knew eachother and chatted freely.

We arrived about 11, found a table and looked at the menu, it's was breakfast for us, I had the English style breakfast with bubble and squeak with added toast with extra tinned tomatoes, my favourite! I haven't had bubble and squeak in years! My wife had Eggs Benedict.

Both came out pretty quickly, cooked fresh and steaming hot, the butter hadn't even full melted it was so fresh. It tasted great, was very filling and kept me full until dinner time.

With many cafes in Clacton, this place is a Gem! I'd recommend it to anyone and is somewhere I'd definitely come back on my next visit.

We had the roast dinner on Sunday at 3pm, we didn't have a choice of all the meats as it was later in the day, but was very happy with our choice of turkey. The food was well cooked and plentiful with an extra side of veg. The staff were friendly and service was great. Will definately be back for some more.

We came as a table of two for lunch today. The welcome on arrival was very friendly and we were shown to our table by another member of staff, again very friendly and welcoming.
The menu choices were very good. We both opted for the roasts, one beef one pork. Food presentation was excellent and the quality and taste of it all was simply perfect.
We were looked after really well by various members of staff who were all so friendly.
No desserts, which was a tough decision as the choice was exceptional! Just ordered cheese and biscuits which did not disappoint... lovely choice of cheeses and pickles.
We will certainly be back!

The Warwick Arms

121 Pier Ave, Clacton-on-Sea

The Warwick Arms was an excellent choice for my dad and step mum’s wedding on Saturday 5th July 2025. The space accommodates around 60 guests comfortably, with room to dance! The co-owner, Harry, was excellent from the initial booking, to the numerous questions about decorations and schedule. I’m not sure when he sleeps! We arrived on the day to decorate, to find that he had already set up the tables, with table cloths, table runners, chair covers and he’d added all the chair sashes. He was approachable, friendly, helpful and proactive throughout. The food was amazing (the guests went mad over the mini burgers in particular) and there was plenty of it, for the size of the wedding party. The DJ kept the floor filled, adding his own little touches during the speeches and encouraging the guests to let their hair down on the dance floor. A random gate crasher was dealt with discreetly and calmly by staff. The atmosphere was relaxed, joyful and fun. Harry cleaned up the next morning, packing up anything the bride and groom were taking back home. I would recommend this pub to host an event, based on the staff alone, but it’s also a well-situated venue, close to accommodation and with adequate parking spaces on site. We all had a lovely time and look forward to popping in for drinks in the future!

Wow, what an unexpected pleasure, we stopped for one drink and didn't want to leave! Such a warm and friendly welcome, we couldn't have been more accommodated, an absolutely first class place and the Prosecco was served in the most wonderful flute, we will certainly be back, our only regret is that we were only passing by. This is highly recommended, one of the last proper pubs, we loved it, hopefully we can pop in next week as we are down this way. Thank you so much to Davina and the other lovely lady and the gentleman who first showed us in x Jackie and the grumpy one!

When you want Jamaican food, go to Rosie's Kabin. And they do Traditional English roast dinners every day. Great food here. You gotta eat it to see how good it is.

What an amazing find!! We (family of 4) popped in on Saturday night and so glad we did! We sat in the dining area at the back and waited for our food to be cooked. It promptly arrived and was one of the best fish and chips meals I've ever had. The fish batter was light and crispy, the fish moist and flakey. The chips were nice and big and cooked perfectly. The overall price of the meal was very reasonable for the 4 of us. We were served by a lovely gentleman during our meal, who was a pleasure to engage with.
I would definitely recommend this place and will be going back the next time we are in the area
