Discreet Dining in Romford

Dinner around Romford can be a loud night in the Market Place or a calm table in a quieter suburb. Here are three places and what each suits.

The Market Place after dark

Romford's Market Place, overlooked by the church of St Edward the Confessor, is the heart of the town and of its nightlife. It is easy to reach from the station and lively, especially at weekends, so it suits a sociable meal rather than a hushed one.

Hornchurch High Street

Hornchurch has a traditional High Street with restaurants and pubs along it, and a slower pace than Romford. Reach it by taxi or bus from Romford rather than on foot.

Upminster, a calm suburban table

Upminster is where the District line ends, and a short branch line links it to Romford via Emerson Park. A table here feels settled and local, and the pace is gentler than in Romford.

The way home

Start with the journey home. The Elizabeth line runs from Romford into central London and out to Shenfield, the Upminster branch is short, and Hornchurch is a bus or taxi ride south. For a calmer table choose a weeknight or one of the quieter suburbs.
