The Beehive Coffee House,

Staff person rude and abrupt, being spoken down to. Ordered 2 hot chocolates, 1 latte, 3 cakes and 1 Belgium hot chocolate. Order all but the BHC. After a period of time, asked at the till about the BHC, was told we didn’t order or pay for it. Had to reorder it and repay it!! When the drink arrived, we asked what happened. The female server was very abrupt and talked down to the family member, saying all 3 were ordered as BHC, not standard HC, which was incorrect. Her demeanour was of very little concern. We frequent the area a lot and would not recommend this place.

Visited during half term as a treat for my nephew. Great service, good food and generous portions. Of course my nephew was most impressed by the freak shakes! To his credit he managed to finish it Will definitely be making a return visit.

Lovely decor, nice staff and great coffee but the food is awful! The Veggie breakfast was probably one of the worst I've tasted. Such a shame as I hoped it would be my new favourite place!

On our way back from Wales to Essex, we decided to take a detour off the main route on the eastbound M4 and stumbled upon this hidden gem of a restaurant. We were able to find parking with a 30-minute restriction right in front of the restaurant. We quickly explained to the waitress that we were in a hurry, and she assured us that there would be no long wait for our food. We ordered our meals and the delicious freak shake, and they were served to us within minutes. Our food arrived shortly after, allowing us to finish our meal and leave within the 30-minute time frame. The service was fantastic, and we were grateful for the quick service. Thank you.

Today was our first visit. I have to say that this was the best breakfast we've ever had. Everything was fresh and so tasty. Very generous amount. The service was excellent and all staff polite. Will definitely be back.
