Have been to Big easy lots of times but to various branches this was the First time visiting this branch. It was a much nicer quieter vibe even though most tables were full which I liked. We pre-booked which is a must I think at this time of year. The food was lovely most of us had lobster for main and mussels to start. The only gripe was that my hubby wanted the 1.5lb lobster but they didn’t have it available only the whole lobster. The service was spot on and we were served by a lady called Agda she was super friendly and offered me a complimentary glass of Prosecco as it was my birthday and at the end of our meal they brought out ice cream with a candle and sang happy birthday which was really sweet. There’s live music after around 7ish which is really nice giving a Texas vibe. Will definitely be back to this branch :-)
Cris was lovely, she was really attentive and patient with our small group, especially during a busy festive season. Food was fantastic, all hot and the chicken was cooked to perfection, juicy and flavourful. Great experience.
Me and a couple of colleagues walked in without booking on a weekday evening. It was busy, good atmosphere with live music being played. Service was prompt & courteous, and the food came without delays. Great start, we ordered drinks and were delighted to get twice what we expected with a BOGOF on all drinks. We had the never-ending ribs and chicken wings and crabshack combo. You will not leave here hungry! If all you have is wings or ribs, it can become tiresome, and sharing other dishes will mean you will have a decent variation. Delighted with the staff and the rest of the evening. Thanks
Great find. Just mooching around looking for a late lunch. Stumbled upon this place and had an excellent meal. The food was superb. Lovely range on the menu. Specialties were very much bbq style, with crab and lobster being up there too. Decent beer and wine list. Nice cocktail selection. Service was wonderful in spite of how busy it was. Cris, our waitress was excellent and very attentive. We were too full for dessert, but we'll definitely be back another time.
We chose Big Easy to go to for a family dinner as our previous visit a few months bag was very pleasant and this time was exactly the same with amazing customer service by the manager Lucas and the staff. Everyone was so welcoming and friendly. The food was delicious and the cocktails were 10/10! Thank you to the chefs and bar staff. Thank you Lucas & team for a wonderful evening, we will definitely be back soon.
Set over 2 floors, this place does functions as well as singular food. It's very busy so booking is advised. Service was average but the staff were friendly. Outside seating available although people didn't seem to be eating outside, only drinks. Unfortunately I found the toilets to be very dirty and vile, with mess all over the floor. The food on both plates was slightly over done and the burger was extremely dry rather than tasty. A nice atmosphere, but some improvements are needed. I wouldn't return.
Had a fantastic experience at Big Easy! The food was great, with the mussels in white wine sauce being a standout—absolutely delicious. It was lovely to sit outdoors, especially on a nice day. The place is also very kid-friendly, which was a big plus. Our server, Oliwia, was incredibly friendly and patient, even when we changed our order three times. Great service all around! Would definitely recommend.
Went there for lunch and I immediately loved the atmosphere; the country music and decor make it quite relaxing and comfortable. The food really tasty and nicely cooked. I loved the seafood bake and at the end could not stop myself from finishing of the garlic and white wine sauce. There drinks also arrived quite quick and my cocktail was spot on.
It was absolutely amazing! Anila was very attentive, great service all round!
Oliwia was a great person. From the initial contact to the end she helped us pick every meal and guide us through the menu. She has also ensured that the food was all good and ensured that we are satisfied by checking in on us. Thank you so much for taking care of us!
Food dry and overpriced
Really great food and equally good service by Oliwia. A genuine asset to a really enjoyable place to eat, with a relaxed cool Texan vibe. Will come again.
Great service from Oliwia!
Great service by Ebin! Amazing atmosphere
Oliwia was great
A group of six of us visited last night, food was very average, and very expensive for the size of the portions, considering this is meant to be an American style restaurant. Not one of us could say their meal was delicious, it was just ok. Meat was dry, steak overcooked, the meat platters had ni bbq sauce. Service was average, After our initial drinks & food order was taken, we then had to ask for everything, cutlery, hand wipes for the people that had ribs & lobster, more drinks, also had ordered a portion of chunky chips , had to ask for them twice before they finally arrived and have noticed on the receipt this morning we ve been charged for 2 portions. Cocktails were good. Drink prices were very reasonable , but food is very overpriced for what it is. Very disappointing , summing up it is just a a very expensive overpriced restaurant.
Brilliant service
So sweet, amazing service. Thank you tro Oliwia

I recently dined at Big Easy, and the experience was truly enhanced by Oliwias exceptional service. She was attentive, friendly, and made our visit to Big Easy so enjoyable. Excellent service thank you
We booked a work team meal for 18. I had difficulty booking from the A La Carte Menu for 18 on one table, so had to book with 2 separate tables. I called many times and spoke to Ana and requested if we could be seated near each other and preferably upstairs as i knew it would be very noisy downstairs with the live band. My response was always we cannot guarantee that. When we arrived it most definitely was not guaranteed as we had 1 table seated downstairs and 1 upstairs!! However after speaking with the helpful Manager and the lovely attentive waitress, her name was Alina I think. We was moved to 2 tables upstairs, near each other as requested. We had a lovely time, with nice food and drinks in the end. I have deleted 1 star after calling many times and our request being ignored and I have given an extra star to Alina for her attentive, lovely Customer Service we received.
Great value lunch; lovely place and Cris was lovely & polite. Would definitely recommend
Cris was great very attentive
Had a great lunch thanks. Oliwia was super helpful and very friendly. From a table of 10. Kid-friendliness: Very kid friendly.

I visited Big Easy with some friends for my sons 8th birthday celebration. There was a slight wait to be seated which wasnt ideal as we had some very hungry kids with us but I could appreciate it was a Saturday and very busy! Our waitress Louisa was so lovely and very accomdating. She helped to put some candkes in my sons birthday cake, bring out as a surprise and sang Happy Birthday to him. Everyone in my group had a really good time. One negative was that the ladies toilets were not up to par unfortunately. There were 2 stalls that did not toilet paper and the stalls were not very clean. Big Easy should look at changing this ASAP as it also adds to the overall experience.
Very good service Vegetarian options: . Food : 4/5 |

Great
Really great service Olivia. Thank you Food : 5/5
Quite an extensive menu which was good to see. Food quality is a mix bag on this occasion. Wife enjoyed her steak and others enjoyed the wings and grand platter. I had ordered the briskett and one other person ordered mac and cheese and it was tasteless and didnt taste like it was cooked fresh. I felt quite grim after eating it and still feeling the affects a day later. Just to clarify i wouldnt go as far to say food poisoning but maybe the richness of the food or somthing has made me feel not so great. Service in general was good (apart from slow service to get the kids deserts) and the live music was decent. I probably would be willing to give it one more go but order different dishes.
Olivia was a friendly and attentive server. The food was nice, as it always is there.
It was great and lively I loved it so much especially the food and decorum.
Cria was an amazing server. On point when we needed her but not overbearing or hovering. She was very accommodating to our dietary needs and efficient in getting our orders to our table. Will return.
Had a lovely Christmas meal with my friends. Our server Cris was attentive, friendly and professional. We will be coming back in the new year.
Food was okay The starters was very nice calamari But I had the meat lunch which was okay but wasn t great maybe I had the wrong main My sister had the lobster roll she enjoyed it my brother had the burger he liked it Atmosphere really nice Good location and service was great I would go back and try another main
Anila was fantastic - so lovely and helpful. The food was great too!

Anila our waitress was amazing, she made our experience really great. Thank you!
Good food, Olivia looked after us very well!
Great food, great company and fantastic service from Olivia!
Upon entry a very unwelcoming approach by the assumed Manager (only one wearing a light chequered shirt, European accent), no smile, no greeting, just a short have you booked? He then proceeded to act as though a walk-in was a foreign and hugely unacceptable concept. Labouring the point, to the point of embarrassment, in front of other customers. The sarcasm and condescending approach (for example would have been nice, wouldnt it? and other silly comments) and immediately confirming no space (when UPON CHECKING, realising that there was in fact lots of space) was not appreciated. Simply turning us away politely wouldve been fine, as there are plenty of other restaurants around! Unsure if it was small man syndrome, a baseless superiority complex, or a very very weird sense of humour, but it was a terribly unprofessional approach. The waiting staff were lovely though, so thanks to them for their warmth and hospitality.
Olivia was an amazing waitress. Her smile was infectious!!!
Our server Oliwia was very nice and helpful. She made my first experience here incredible.
Attentive, speedy and friendly service from Oliwia. Lovely pre-football food and drinks

Went on a heaving pre- Christmas Saturday a s a foursome. Didnt book but were welcomed in to wait at the bar, being told a table wouldnt be long. that was 50 minutes before the table was available, not sure why we didnt leave as we were also ignored by the staff at the bar when trying to get drinks. Apparently you can only purchase cola by the pint too, as it is out of the pump!! Not sure why a smaller glass cant be given as im sure you dont have a pint of coke in your rum... By this time it was about 9.15pm. The starters and main course were nice, but you have to be careful that what you orders actually comes with what is advertised. I took the Texan steak (I think it was), but had to send back for the coleslaw and beans. There are substitutions allowed, but I dont like chunky chips and was a bit peeved I could have had skinny chips, but not given the option. Live music was good and not too loud that you couldnt have a conversation.
Served by Maggie the food was great and the service was amazing
Me and my family usually come to big easy to celebrate our birthdays but our server Maggie was so lovely that her service truly made my little sister s birthday celebration extra special. Thank you Maggie and Big easy Kid-friendliness: Very family friendly I recommend
Maggie gave us excellent service. She was so sweet and gave us good recommendations on what to get. Hint ; employee of the month
Madu was very attentive, super cool, we ordered surf n turf lobster and steak, amazing and the starters were phenomenal. We also ordered the crab shack with mixture of seafood, only cortiscism was the snow crab legs had 0 meat in them, cracked them whilst showing the team and literally nada, hopefully just a one off as it s a crab shack but the lobster was sublime.
Everything was amazing. Starters, service the lobster and the steak. But there was no meat in the snow crab legs and the little meat there was was very dry and salty.
Cris was amazing Parking: Car park b Food : 5/5 |
Olivia was splendid. Great service and highly professional
Anila and Cris were friendly and welcoming. The service and food was great and great value for money.

Cris service was excellent Excellent food as always Food
Great place. Cris was fantastic. Super friendly. Very attentive . We will definitely be back. Thanks Cris!
Great food snd service from Cris
Good food and service but I d say it s a little overpriced. They also add a service charge automatically which is disagree with.
Stake was OK. Ive been told the steaks are fantastic here but must have had a miss night. Had 18 ounce rib eye and it looked fantastic just tatsed a little bland. Music was great, service great and buy one get one free on all drinks was pretty good
Great service from Cris. Bit cold in there though.
Energizing ambiance, rock solid happy hour deals, and enough meat specials to make a Texas BBQ joint jealous. What better place to catch up with good friends and enjoy a Thanksgiving Eve celebration? That said, the space, food & drink, and all else, are only as captivating as the people who run the show, and Madu was the perfect complement to the evening. Thank you again for your warmth, positivity, and professionalism.
Thanks Maggie!
Got out of the storm for a bite to eat! Great food and Maggie couldn t have been more helpful - really looked after us!

Ebin was really good
Big pig gig: the ribs were good, pulled pork ok but the chicken was very dry. Overall ok. For the surf and turf: the lobster was pretty good but the steak was very tough. It was difficult to cut it on the serving tray, so worth taking the hot plate onto the table. Food was average but the service and atmosphere was quite good. Olivia and Ebin provided good service!
Speedy service and very friendly interactions with all staff. Particularly Ebin & Cris
Ebin was great! I had an allergy and he made sure I was okay

We booked a table for eight to celebrate my daughter s birthday today Sunday 2/12. I d eaten there once previously during the week for my birthday in October and food was great. On this occasion we couldn t have been more disappointed! Some food was cold and one person s went back twice & still wasn t warm on second occasion. She opted just to eat the chips. There was confusion over what drinks could replace the declined Prosecco so we ended up paying for these! To be fair we didn t mind where we d intended to order cocktails but this was not always the case! Two orders of lobster rolls definitely didn t look like what was online and I d happily post the comparative photos but doesn t appear to be option to do so! Manager s response was they didn t have any of those! Although he did speak to us, he seemed uninterested and when told some people s food was cold responded this is an American vibe & they don t serve cold food, when we d we clearly showed him that they did. There were 7 adults and the original bill was £300+ with service charge. They said they d remove that and didn t do so fully. Food the manager agreed to deduct wasn t. The starters were nothing to write home about either in portion size taste or standard. My share of bill was over £100! I don t mind paying if the food is great but this was extortionate for a very poor standard and what was worse not only spoiled a birthday celebration but it felt as though staff thought we were simply trying to avoid paying the bill! It was so disappointing that none of us will return and I felt the manager didn t empathise enough or acknowledge their poor standard. I had to apologise to the whole party as I d told them how great the food was. Never again! I had the half lobster with garlic, it was overcooked and chewy and that was the same for 3 of us who had that, at £28.50 each definitely overpriced! I couldn t in good conscience recommend this place! Over priced and over rated! Was really a shame!
The restaurant was nice but very cold so had to eat with our coats on. But the service was excellent despite the cold. The food was enjoyable and affordable. The management was kind to take the service charge off our bill because of the cold. Thank you. Overall, a good experience. Vegetarian options: Not much to choose from.
