The Garden Brasserie - Thurrock

I went for afternoon tea and was disappointed. The sandwiches were okay, but the cakes were very dense and not worth the price. I was also charged for coffee even though I don't drink tea. Overall, it wasn't the best dining experience we've had, and I wouldn't go back.

The restaurant offers delicious food options for both vegans and non-vegans. My wife and I enjoyed a wonderful weekend there, followed by a large gathering where everyone was very well taken care of.

I had an unexpected afternoon tea for four at The Garden Brasserie a couple of weeks ago, which was a wonderful treat from my friend's husband. The vegan afternoon tea prepared by the chef was delicious and even better than the one I had at Kensington Palace, all at half the price! Upon returning to Orsett Hall on Friday for my cousin's wife's funeral, I was thrilled once again when the chef, Josh, prepared a special meal for me after Julie, one of the servers, kindly offered to ask him. The sandwiches, fresh salad, and vegan cheesecake were all delightful. Thank you.

We were very much looking forward to celebrating a friends special birthday so booked a champagne tea for 4. We were seated at our table and after having waited 15 minutes to be served i managed to find a waitress to help us. The restaurant appeared to have very few staff and again I had to find someone to bring us more tea. The sandwiches were disappointing, the bread was not fresh and the fillings were somewhat tasteless, I had expected that the food which was presented would have been described to us but unfortunately it was not. All in all the experience was not what we had hoped for .

Our first visit to the Garden Brasserie for dinner tonight (have had afternoon tea here before). The restaurant itself is absolutely beautiful! The service and attentiveness of the staff was just right, special thanks to Dana for looking after us and the food was one of the best meals we have had for a long time. We had mains and dessert and it was all delicious! We will be returning soon.
