The Duke of York - Billericay

Really lovely food and service at Duke of York.

I had the Bang Bang Cauliflower to start which had an excellent sauce on it and crunchy, fresh salad to accompany the cauliflower. For the main I had the vegan truffle burger. The burger was really tasty, had a weight to it but wasn't heavy. The homemade pickles added a nice tang to the burger while the fig jam provided a fruitness to the umami taste of the burger. The chips were crispy and delicious.

Recommended choice for those wanting a plant-based/vegan option in Billericay in a local pub setting.

RECOMMEND FROM A CLOSE FAMILY MEMBER, two weeks later me the wife our seven children decided to dine out, arriving just before the evening rush , the wife was worried food was going to turn up @ scattered times , however to my delight, she was wrong, 10 out of ten for service & taste , IM HIGHLY RECOMMEND YOU EAT HERE THE NEXT TIME YOU AND YOUR FAMILY WANT TO DINE OUT ,

Brilliant for a small group Breakfast meet up. Relaxing and nice calm atmosphere, especially after the school drop-offs.
Casual time to unwind and chatter. A nid-morning meet-up with food and coffee/tea. Breakfast plates were tasty and nothing to fault here. Staff were welcoming and polite.

We visited The Duke of York, Billericay today for a family meal and I must say that it was a lovely meal (we were a party of 8). The staff were very polite and helpful from the moment we arrived. The food was excellent and everyone enjoyed their meals. We will definitely return soon. Many thanks😊

Surprised my partner with a family dinner here for his birthday, and am so glad I did.

When we arrived, we were shown to our table that had ample space for our party of 2 adults and two children.

We were offered children's menus. The children were happy to have options for starters, which they don't always get on a kids menu.

We attended on Thursday, which was 241 steak and grill night.

We were offered drinks. The children asked for orange juice with lemonade. When I asked the price, I heard the children's drink was £1.60. The drinks that arrived were huge. When we received the bill where we were charged £2.50 for each drink.

My partner went for a raspberry rum and lemonade. I had a large merlot. We were both happy with our drinks.

My partner had the prawn and crayfish cocktail. He thoroughly enjoyed it. The children went for garlic bread and spring rolls. The garlic bread was good quality with minced garlic, and the spring rolls looked perfectly crisp.

Both dishes got the thumbs up.

For mains, the children went for the fish gougons with chips and scampi and chips. Again, the food looked fresh and crispy.

Both adults went for the mixed grill, which was incredibly tasty and more enjoyable, knowing we were only paying for one dish.

Everything on the plate was flavoursome. We had to ask for extra nbq sauce for the ribs, but we both thoroughly enjoyed the dish.

I ordered peppercorn sauce for the 4 oz steak, not realising it was an extra cost, but the gravy boat housed a very generous portion that was very tasty.

For afters, Mr. picked the baked strawberry and white chocolate cheesecake. I went for the pineapple upside down cake.

The cheesecake was phenomenal. The pineapple upside-down cake was not quite as tasty and looked more like a rum cake than the cake I used to get at school with custard.

It was a nice cake. Would have liked the option of custard instead of ice cream, but it was a good desert.

The cheesecake was next level.

Service was pleasant. It was a little slow at times but it appeared only 2 staff were on the floor and the restaurant was quite busy.

I asked for the bill and eventually had to go ask at the bar. I received an apology because the server forgot.

We were overcharged for one of the children's starters, but it was quickly corrected.

All in all, it was a lovely night out.

The venue was nicely decorated and very clean. Staff were courteous.

We will definitely return.

A party of 15 for a birthday celebration and much needed family get together.
The service was amazing and welcoming with a warm cosy atmosphere. We had a lovely table by a window we space for us all and buggy.
We pre ordered mains which all came out at the same time with kids being served first. Great time to cut meals and enjoy ours in peace.
We opted to head to bar and get drinks which is good for the man folk.
Wednesday fish offer was amazing sea bass was great.
All in all a fab evening and we want to thank staff for a much needed evening.
Thank you.

Four of us dined here for the first time and had an excellent evening. The service was friendly and the food is great. It was 2-for-1 on burgers which meant the total bill for mains and dessert was very reasonable. Thanks for having us, we shall recommend!

I've not been in the Duke for probably over a decade, but friends invited us for a meal and a pub quiz.
So glad they did as the food was awesome and the quiz a lot of fun.

Staff were really friendly and we had a laugh with them, so much so, we're going back next month.

See you there?
