Lots of lovely fish & chip shops on the Esplanade and the Rossi ice-cream parlour offers tasty delights.

Dine with spectacular views at the 1935 Rooftop restaurant in the Holiday Inn, or seek out sea views in the the Royal Pavilion Restaurant which sits at the very end of the pier.

Most national chain stores can be found in Southend’s Royals Shopping Centre and The Victoria Shopping Centre, as well as lots of interesting independents in nearby streets only a short walk from the beach.
