Sunday roast of dreams

The Hub never disappoints and our Christmas family Sunday roast was sensational. We normally travel in to London at Christmas but not this year, and why would we when food of this quality is available locally? Fabulous choice of roasts with all the trimmings and...sides you could ever want - all hot, plentiful and absolutely delicious. Gluten free and veggies are catered for beautifully as well. Puddings also a must try if you have any room - they are home made and fantastic. I cannot recommend The Hub enough.More

Booked this for my mothers 84th Birthday, Table of Seven and went for the Sunday roast platter. Wow platter was huge, all quality food, mixed meats, pigs in blankets and all the vegetables and Roast Potatoes and Parsnips you need. Would definitely recommend, Service and...staff excellent. You won’t be disappointed.More

Best roast in Essex!

By far the best roast dinner I have had in Essex, the hub easily make the other look like pretentious carvery’s. We were warmly greeted and given a fantastic service. The beef was cooked to a perfect (guessing 52 degrees). And the rum toffee sauce...is just built different! We will be back over and over. Thanks guysMore

Brilliant place

Brilliant restaurant. We had a lovely 40th birthday breakfast. The food is very high standard and portion sizes are bigger than usual. Considering we were a larger table the food and drinks all came out together and the food was warm. The service was above...usual standards and it’s a friendly atmosphere to eat there. Going back soon. JamesMore
