Menu

On this website, you will find the complete menu of Basildon Pitsea Extra Cafe from Basildon. Currently, there are 2 menus and drinks available.

Nestled conveniently for shoppers, this café presents a cozy ambiance but consistently falls short in service efficiency and cleanliness. Diners frequently endure long waits—often upwards of 40 minutes—even during quieter hours. Staff appear overwhelmed, with dirty tables left unattended and limited drinkware available. While some menu items, like paninis and burgers, disappoint due to dryness and lack of variety, the quality of certain dishes shines through. Despite the promise of flavorful meals, the overall experience is marred by slow service and a disheveled environment. Improvements in staffing and cleanliness are essential for a more satisfying visit.

This coffee shop is both convenient and cozy. The staff is friendly and I typically only stop by for an espresso, which gets the job done in giving me my caffeine fix. The food doesn't look very appealing, as items like breakfast options are left under heat lamps. View all feedback.

What Fictional Character dislikes about Basildon Pitsea Extra Cafe:
Every time I have been into the cafe the wait for food is horrendous. 40 minutes wait for a toastie when hardly anyone in here. Till staff constantly threatening to stop hot food as its too busy. No sense of urgency from any of the till staff as they dither around watching the queue mount up. Glasses given to us dirty and tables left full of rubbish.

The staff at this restaurant are incredibly friendly and welcoming to families with children. Additionally, the prices are very reasonable.

Terrible service today, tables were not clean, only one glass available for our soft drinks. Ordered paninis cheese and ham. Had a job to spot the cheese and no butter in them very dry. We had to wait 40 mins and was very disappointed. The young man on the till was apologising to nearly every customer for something that wasnt his fault. Shocking service so give this one a miss if i were you.
