An American restaurant situated not far from the town centre with it's typical American decor. A…read morefantastic atmosphere with its ultra comfortable leather booth seats, skylight bringing in natural sunlight, even plug sockets for laptop users and free wifi. It also seems the place to watch live sports over a drink and a burger with tv screens on each corner of the restaurant yet it is still very family friendly and service has always been impeccable. In my honest opinion I do believe they serve some of the best American dishes around and can even compete with some of London's favourite diners. Wild wings (cajun) x6 Incredibly moreish and can see myself finishing a higher quantity bucket load. The wing sizes were quite average but very succulent and meaty inside. The cajun spices gave it a nice sweet paprika garlicky flavour and latched on well on the crispy skins of the wing showing that they were well fried, Sloppy Joes Ticked all the boxes for a fantastic burger. First that lovely pillow soft brioche bun, slightly charred so it came warm. Then came the rich tender minced beef fried with onions and peppers in there to give it some texture and boost of flavour. The sauce it came with was generous, with lovely rich sweet and and savoury notes keeping everything moist and juicy throughout. Finished off nicely with a fine slice of cheese, melted perfectly to intensify the umami flavours. Full rack ribs A delicious slab of ribs, keeping its meaty texture and flavours which suggest it was slow cooked the full length of time to tenderise and soften the meat. There was no pre cooking the ribs beforehand here. This allowed the rich BBQ coca cola sauce to penetrate through to the bone whilst reducing in liquid to create a rich and sticky coating around the ribs keeping everythign moist and juicy. A nice light creamy coleslaw on the side to cool things off. Curly fries These were perfectly fried. It had that moreish fluffy inside and crispy outside that was coated in the sweet mild spices which you find collapsing on itself as you chew, sending the rush of flavour through each mouthful. I say mouthful as who just pops one in their mouth per bite, not if they are this good. Chilli fries Not the spicy chilli as I imagined but chilli consisting of a wonderful well flavoured mix of red kidney beans, onions and red peppers in a lovely thick tomato slurry that helped bind the sauce and flavours on each and every chip. Drizzled with sour cream to add a lovely creamy consistency. Very wholesome dish. Sloppy suits every occassion whether it's your quick lunch or a celebration feast. Food has always been fantastic and paired with that is it's lovely bright and spacious atmosphere. Those who can eat a lot like me should definitely go for one of their food challenges. try their Sloppy Joes challenge and knock me down the top of the chart if you can.

Every time I see the lights on I can't resist walking in and ordering one of Jakes finest burgers, full of flavour and size! The blowout really is something you would find in the USA, and makes this place truly unique in an area which is otherwise inundated with chicken and chip shops. The chips are your bog standard chips but it's all about the burger, and what makes this place stand even further is the sheer simplicity of it all. The decor looks like it's been the same since it first opened many moons ago but it adds a certain allure. If you are in the area don't miss out on this truly fascinating establishment, Jake is a lovely owner who always has time for a good chat!

The chilli con carne and cheese was great on top but it was a little too salty. They not only have great food, they also have great drinks such as Oreo milkshakes and alcohol free cocktails.

The food itself is really good, although the chips are quite on the normal side, nothing new. The burger I got tasted very fresh and, without sounding weird, like actual beef. It was very juicy and I wish I was joking when I say it got everywhere lol. Service is great: the workers are super sweet and even though the food takes a little while to get there (as it's prepared fresh) it was overall quite a good experience. The ambiance wasn't too bad and there was barely anybody there - definitely a win for introverts! Overall an 8/10.

So I came across Mangetout on instagram a few months ago and was impressed with how the food…read morelooked. After reading the reviews and hearing about it some more, We decided to make a day trip if it from London to Southend-on-Sea and see if the food lived up to the hype. Oh boy, the pictures don't do the food justice. Firstly, this is one of the very few places where the food actually looks like the picture!! So my hubby ordered the rib tips for a starter, daughter had the shrimp starter and I had the brisket end starter. We were bowled over by how delicious the starters were. The shrimp was crispy and just plain gorgeous, we've never tasted better, honestly. Just he shrimp alone made the trip worth it. The rib tips and brisket ends were also amazing. So yummy. For our mains, were we glad we'd starved before coming! Hubby had the manwich, massive sandwiches, never seen bigger honestly and he said they were sooo good. Sandwiches came with chips and coleslaw and he demolished the lot to the shock of the waiter lol. My daughter had hickory smoked ribs and that came with corn on the cob, salad, coleslaw and chips. The meat off the rib just literally fell off the bone. It was so delicious and so full of flavour that even she managed to eat most of it. I had the Almighty burger...there are just no words to describe the awesomeness of this beast. It also came with chips and slaw and it was fantastic I ate it all. The portions here are HUGE and we didn't need to eat anything else all day... Apart from dessert coz honestly we'd come all the way, why not have dessert hey? The dessert was amazing, everything was amazing. We were so full at the end, thank God the restaurant is right by the sea and pier so we had a long walk site seeing to get the food down before going back home. We are certainly returning to taste all the other stuff on the menu! YUMMY!!!!!! Service was really good and the music and drinks were excellent

Ive been here twice. First time was good, but very slow service. Steak was good, not great value…read more Prawn entrée was above average. 2nd time again service was slow even though I pre-ordered. As it took so long I then asked for it to be takeaway...They then charged service...Not sure what for. Mama's ribs coating was too thick and to be honest not very nice. Perhaps they messed up the recipe? Meat itself was very good, but I struggled to remove as much of the coating as possible. Sweetcorn overcooked. Staff seemed ingenuine...Atmosphere is pretty good, but pretty poor value and food is hit and miss. The place across the road is the opposite. Humble, delicious and well priced.

My best friend and I popped in here for some dinner at about 9:30pm, so immediately I was quite…read morepleased that it was still open! We both had the Burnside Burger (cheese, bacon) and skin-on fries. The food came quite quickly, which I assume was because there was only two other parties in the restaurant at the time, but regardless I'll still give them points for a speedy delivery. The burger was quite messy but that's what made it authentically American. The patty itself was a little thinner than I expected and didn't have much of a taste to it so I assume it wasn't seasoned very well, but the cheese melted over it nicely. I would've thought they'd use American streaky bacon but it was actually thick, back rasher English bacon which I preferred. The fries were lovely, a huge portion for one person, and the sauces on the table were all brilliant (we tried them all, my personal favourite was Carolina BBQ). Overall an okay experience and at quite a low price too. £20 for two meals and two drinks, you really can't beat it, even though I would have liked my burger to be more seasoned.

Sierra Nevada is a mainstay. The food menu is long and varied, and the fare I've tried was respectable, albeit a bit spendy given this is zone 4. On the subject of cost, I should say I would have liked to see the prices about a pound or two cheaper for many main courses. And the 10-pound round for two pints of ale did give me a bit of sticker shock given this pub's almost-Essex location. I guess it IS located in yummy mummy Wanstead valley, though. All in all, the pub has good food, good booze and plenty of inviting seating areas and a vast beer garden. On my two weekend visits, it's always been buzzing. If you're in your 30s and living in Wanstead, it's where you're going to end up eating and drinking at the weekend. If you're visiting friends who are the aforementioned, you'll be happy here too.

Then I ordered the smoked chicken and avocado salad which came without any avocado and no explanation after a longer wait than you'd expect in a pub. All in all, pretty disappointing!

It was very crowded as this is also a night life spot. Down stairs you have tables to lounge chit chat and eat. You have to go to the bar area to order drinks and food.

The patties very large juicy and greasy as one could imagine. However, just good no over barring flavor definitely greasy. The fries were delightful just the right amount of parm and truffle. After eating I decided to make the most of my entry and go upstairs to dance. Please note the restroom area is very small I believe three stalls but enclosure is crampeD. Upstairs was vibey, Dj played a mixture of American tunes , 90s rap and UK beats. I would recommend this place for a burger and/or nightlife

I do think this is one of the best burgers I've had in London…read more Lucky Chip burgers are served at the Old Queen's Head pub on Essex Road. The menu is fun, the burgers arrive quickly. Aged beef patty with pickle, ketchup and mustard. Had the cheeseburger with proper melty American cheese which really is the best for burgers. Good bun too that holds together. The burgers are cooked medium and I mean a proper pink medium, not just browned on the edges verging on raw in the middle which some other places are doing. The taste and overall experience is right up there and everything is just right, especially the beef patty itself which was perfection. Decent fries too. Coleslaw was good enough but not the highlight here. Been there twice. Consistently good each time and with reasonable prices and great service it adds up to a top rating from me.
