Went to Pinchos today for lunch for the very first time. Service was friendly and the food was superb and very well prepared. (Chocolate Brownie for dessert was heaven)We thought it was excellent value for money and cannot recommend it highly enough. We will definitely return in the near future.

Lovely atmosphere, lovely staff, lovely food!!

We visit Seabrights quite regularly and have always received great service and great food. Roast potatoes not fantastic but meat and veg all good quality. Service ok, but for that sort of place you don't expect silver service!
Would definutely recomend!!

Its such a shame to see a once great restaurant go so downhill over the last few years. I have visited many times over the last few months as i live very close by, however i have noticed the following problems/issues:
- The food is boring and expensive, especially for the portion size.
- My complaint was dealt with appalingly... when i did not even receive my starters, i asked to speak to the manager (who i believe was fairly new) and was basically told that if i didnt pay for it, he would call the Police. THe guy looked old enough to retire and clearly doesnt know the slightest thing about customer service.
- When the bill came over to the table for our party, they had the cheek to add on a 10% service charge.....what for i asked myself? For service from a waiter that has the personalitiy of an undertaker who could do nothing more than grunt, and an even ruder restaurant manager.

I seriously think the Waterfront Place needs to wake up and smell the roses as Chelmsford is a small town with lots of competition! Ill be taking my custom elsewhere to better local restaurants.

Choose this one carefully fellow customers...personally id save the money and eat at Prezzos, Strada or even Pizza Express!

Good quality food and a wider selection on their new menu. Good ales always available.

My family and i dine frequently at The Waterfront Place and have attended many of the tribute nights and funtions. The food is high quality and the service is great. My children especially like the amazing pizzas. I have also dined with my husband upstairs and find it the perfect venue to relax and be waited on, this restaurant never fails to impress.

Lan Thai has a pretty good, varied menu. Something a little bit different than an average Thai. Most Thai restaurants have a rubbish wine list, but Lan Thai is very good in this respect.

One of our favourite restaurants in Chelmsford! Better than any other thai in the area. The food is delicious, especially the massaman curry! Staff are very pleasant and we have always been served quickly. Good value for money and authentially thai decor. Try it!

We visited Seabrights Barn recently for a family birthday. The restauant was tastefully decorated there was a great atmosphere. We all opted for the carvey and filled our plates with yorkshire puddings, plenty of meat, potatoes, mash and vegetables. The only dissapointment was the state of the sauce trays. Our waitress was very helpful, checking when we wanted our birthday cake and offering plates, napkins and a knife and we enjoyed a great family night out.
Adivce-book in advance especially for weekends to avoid disappointment as it was fully booked.

A proper family pub with proper food, makes a change not to be limited to just nuggets for the kids, found it by mistake after seeing the trampoline and bouncy castle in the garden, but will definatly be back.
