East Coast 5 — Restaurant in Tendring

Spent some time with a friend in Walton-on-Naze, found this gem of restaurant. Manager Andreas shared they have been open since June last year (2022). We chose their Sunday Roast Beef, wow, fresh vegetables, best Roast Potatoes tasted in long time, Beef tender, Yorkshire light and tasty. Horseradish and Mint sauce tasted homemade. Could have done for little more gravy, but it by no means deflected from beautiful food here.

Dessert I chose the truffle mix, this I am told changes from time to time, see picture on the 5 small tasters I had the pleasure of eating today... the white drizzle under, yes its white chocolate yum, best dessert for a very long time !!

Choices of verious drinks, cocktails, milkshakes, soft drinks, hot drinks, water at table. Amazing service and popular. Book a table to avoid disappointment !!

Photos I took were also about the Roast dinner choices; the Theme/Entertainment nights. There was a mix of background music.

And gorgeous Bathroom !! The tiles are gorgeous, very clean, beautiful sink and efficient hand dryer. Trust me, these things are important and located ground floor also !!

Highly recommended. Food Meditaranian Cyprus influence mix with English.

Cant wait to visit the lovely Andreas and his...

Went there this morning with my friend who lives, locally but I don’t. Visit Frinton very often and have been to East Coast 5 a number times. Breakfast was very good, but they were very busy so had ask to place our food order which is not good. My friend bought his dog with us and ordered a sausage for her but they had run out at 10am, why?? Shows poor judgment, surely you know you are to be busy in the summer months, particularly when the the weather’s good. Not acceptable and they almost boast about it being dog friendly, not good enough and it’s not cheap either. Overall a poor effort.

• Further to the owners reply*

The waitress who served us said they had run out of sausages which contradicts what you state. You might want to get your facts right before making comments! Also it shows poor judgement on your part if you do not have enough stock as I have already stated at a very busy time of the year and with very good weather. You have plenty of good reviews, but it demonstrates you cannot take constructive criticism. I might have considered changing my overall rating but thanks to your response it will stay at one...

Although East Coast 5 has been established now for a few years, it had not come on our radar until recently. Seeing their extensive menu, we thought we’d give it a try. We visited on a weekday mid-afternoon and there were a few other diners, but it was generally quiet. We were made very welcome and given a choice of table. There are a few seats on the pavement outside and lots of tables of different sizes inside. The layout inside is well thought-out, with the bar in the middle and seating areas all around the outside, which creates different ambience as you walk around. We had a halloumi flat bread and a Mediterranean flat bread (vegan), both of which were excellent. Both dishes were nicely presented and full of flavour and made a great lunch. I also had a side of onion rings, which were perfect. There was a good selection of cakes on show at the counter and the Jaffa cake caught my eye and it proved to be delicious - moist and tasty. East Coast 5 is a great place for a lunch, coffee and cake, or evening meal. It is a great addition to Walton and a very friendly and welcoming environment. We will definitely...
