Reviews for The Charcoal Pit (under new management) in Essex, ON

Chuck?s was closed for a party, so we popped over to check out the Charcoal Pit. We got the half rib dinners, with coleslaw and... dollar chips. The ribs were just perfect! Great service, wonderful people working there. We will be back for sure now that wehave found this hidden gem! Read more

Love this place! Excellent service and food at decent prices. So wonderful with our children!

Food was delicious and the staff was extremely friendly, truly went above and beyond! The woman working tucked a napkin into my... 3 yr old son's shirt, and held my crying baby so I could eat. The food was made up very quickly, and was really good. My son hadthe kid's burger with dollar fries (I stole a few, so good!), and I had the chicken quesadilla. We will definitely be back againsoon.

I have no clue how this has 4.4 star reviews. Pros. Quick service. Got our drinks and food quickly. Coffee was hot. Lots of... cream. Seat yourself style restaurant. The French toast was okay. Waitress was friendly. Bacon was amazing. Cons. I had theTalbot breakfast. Seemed like a good deal and the amount you get is filling. However the hash browns had a fishy undertone,like they were cooked on a grill after a fish. Maybe it was just me, but it seemed fishy over all, which didn't help theeggs. Eggs overeasy were runny. Not like a little bit of almost cooked egg that's white, no, it was snotty runny eggs, youknow, super undercooked and kinda slimy. All three. Some people like that,if you do, then enjoy. I do not. Their bench seatsaren't designed for the more robust of us. Over all it really was an okay experience, but I'm not sure we would go again. Read more
