A gem of a bistro in a attractive location
with outstanding staff. We had a excellent Sunday roast, I cant praise La Petite Petanque and its staff highly enough. Thankyou !!

Lunch with the inlaws at one of our favourite Southend lunch venues. The food is excellent with a new fresh menu, and the staff are so friendly you can't help but want to
re-visit time and again.

La Petite Pétanque is set within the grounds of Alexandra
Bowling Green, in the charming conservation area of
Southend-on-Sea. The elegantly styled Art Deco property that houses the restaurant sits on the edge of the bowling green, where regular matches can be observed while
enjoying afternoon-tea or lunch which bestows a unique relaxed and idyllic atmosphere upon proceedings.
The team has succeeded in creating a place to enjoy superbly cooked modern British cuisine in the heart of
Southend-on-Sea.
