Mangetout, Southend-on-Sea

Mangetout is a barbecue smokehouse and grill located in the centre of Southend just off the high street and close to Southend Central stations. The restaurant which seats 150 diners has two bars, a bespoke charcoal grill, mezzanine floor and live entertainment. Food is steaks, burgers, ribs and seafood as well as options for vegetarians and there is a dedicated cocktail bar serving mini burgers leading on to a garden area which will open this summer with an outdoor bar and barbeque. Slate grey walls, stripped back wooden floors, exposed brick walls, copper piping and filament lights greet you as you walk through the glass doors. One real ale is served from Crouch Vale and Brewers Gold is also available in bottles along with a range of craft beers
