13 Restaurants in Brentwood

If you are one of the thousands of people who journey down from Essex to work in London every day, why not give yourself something to look forward to at the end of the day by booking a table with Quandoo? If Indian food is your thing, you won't have to walk far from the station. There are a couple of outstanding options on Warley Hill where stylish settings combine with finely prepared versions of classic dishes like dupiazas, vindaloos and pathias. Whatever your preferences in spiciness and taste, these Brentwood restaurants will cook up something special to welcome you home after a hard day at the office.

Alternatively there are some wonderful dining options on the High Street, where culinary cultures from across the world are proudly represented. On one hand, you can enjoy a traditional Turkish meal with as much meze as your table can hold. Whether you want some sucuk sausage, veggie-friendly falafel or Adana kebabs, it's all there to choose from. Alternatively, there are great British restaurants in central Brentwood where burgers, roasts and superfood salads are all on the menu.

Dining spots on the High Street are also the perfect places to dine before you dance. Eateries like the Sugar Hut combine the role of gourmet brasserie and lively nightclub (not at the same time). Where else can you enjoy dishes like pan roasted hake, king prawn linguine or Gressingham duck breast, before popping into the on-site cocktail bar for happy hour, then hitting the dance floor until the small hours? If you are looking for a place to celebrate, these Brentwood restaurants are absolutely unbeatable.

However, if you aren't gearing up for a night of hedonism, restaurants near Brentwood feature some much more intimate options as well. For example, down in Hornchurch you can head to family-run Italian osterias where the setting is simple and unpretentious, but the food is exceptional. Though they might focus on classic Italian dishes, there's nothing out of date about these places, where the menus feature timeless options like spaghetti Bolognese and Napoletana pizzas (as well as plenty of red wine too).
