The Queens Head - Maldon

I went to lunch with friends and sat in the back part of the restaurant. We ordered fish and chips which were perfect - the fish was extremely fresh and the oil used was obviously fresh as well. The portions were large and the service was attentive and friendly. Other dishes, like the cake of the day, looked excellent although no one at our table ordered it. The bathrooms were very clean and modern, with a beautiful view of the promenade and old buildings. I would recommend this place highly.

The food was fantastic, the service was quick, and the view from the pub was amazing.

Many outdoor seating, some covered, so also with little rain they are dry. the fish chips are wonderful, crispy, flocculent fish, golden chips all with tartaric acid sauce, could be better. Even the very friendly starling has not helped us even though when they work here, I would understand the frustration, they do not know where these little claws have been. highly recommended.

The restaurant is in a stunning location right on the waterfront. It was very busy during lunchtime, but the staff were excellent. The menu had a good variety of options, and I highly recommend the pflugmann's special. We also tried the sandwiches and the house-made burger, all of which were first-class. They have a wide selection of ales and apple wines from Suffolk, Norfolk, and the local brewery. The prices were very competitive, and the views of the barges were beautiful. I highly recommend this restaurant.

Great pub with views over the river. Dog friendly for the beer garden only which is a nice touch. Cold and refreshing selection of beers with a good menu for food. This pub is a great pit stop for a nice day out at the promenade or if you are a local to the area this is a good contender
