1. Stark
restaurant in Colchester
East Road, East Mersea - CO5
Upping sticks from Broadstairs in Kent, Ben & Sophie Crittenden opened this transplanted venue on Mersea Island with just 20 covers in summer 2024, with Ben as chef and Sophie front of house. They serve a £100 per person tasting menu, and initial feedback is of “lovely, perfectly seasoned food in a rural setting providing an excellent overall experience”. In her February 2025 review, The Guardian’s Grace Dent also declared herself a fan, applauding “punchily flavoured pieces of art” ending with a final dish “quite unlike anything I‘ve ever been served”. One reporter did have “a few minor gripes: the main dish of Wagyu Beef could have benefitted from a carbohydrate and some vegetables… that said we will be back and it will be soon!”
