Reviews Overview

Most Liked

Customers rave about the taste and freshness of the food. The full breakfast seems to be a top favorite, impressing many with its quality and heartiness. Many also appreciate the friendly service provided by staff, which adds to the overall pleasant dining experience. Flexibility in the menu allows for modifications, ensuring diners can get exactly what they want. Free parking nearby takes away the stress of finding space during busy hours, making visits far easier, especially for families. The great selection of teas and coffees is another highlight, giving patrons a comforting drink option any time of day.

Most Disliked

While The Bistro has many enthusiasts, some customers mention longer wait times during busy periods due to food being cooked fresh to order. This is a point of contention, especially during peak lunch hours. Certain menu items may also experience a lack of flexibility in customization, leading to occasional disappointment. On particularly busy days, finding seating can be a challenge, particularly on Wednesdays around noon when it reaches full capacity. A few patrons have expressed concern about the noise level when groups gather, as it can detract from the otherwise calm atmosphere.

This has got to be by far the best café in the Stanford-le-Hope/ Corringham area. All the food is cooked fresh and none of that cheap Richmond sausage type stuff you get in most places. There is a slight wait as everything is cooked to order but it's really worth it. Our order was taken straight away as always and with a smile. There's a downstairs and an upstairs as well as outside seating so plenty to choose from. This place also has it's own carpark and has access for disabled customers. I'm gradually working through the menu and can recommend the full breakfast and the avocado's and eggs on toast. However the burger's and omelette's are really nice as well. Overall, since I discovered this place I don't go anywhere else! The price is reasonable especially for fresh produce and a friendly atmosphere.

I wanted to share a quick bit of feedback. When I placed my order, the girl at the counter was really kind and helpful. I asked for the baguette with meat, and she said that would be fine. However, a guy passing by jumped in and insisted that the steak meat is only for meals with chips – no flexibility at all. Thankfully, the girl stayed friendly and offered me crispy chicken instead. I accepted, and in the end, it was absolutely delicious – juicy, fresh, and perfectly made. So despite the earlier inflexibility, I still want to thank that same guy for making such tasty chicken, and big thanks to the girl for being so warm and flexible. Best regards, Justina / JV

If you have the breakfast, Make sure you order it 2 days before you get in here as that’s how long it takes to arrive 👍
