GREAT BURGERS

We’re proud to serve up delicious burgers at The Essex Arms, thanks to Marlowe’s who operate from our kitchen. Their mouthwatering burgers are made from the finest grass-fed beef sourced from Aubrey Allen, their trusted butcher. The chosen cuts go through a precise dry-aging process that enhances both tenderness and flavor and after aging, the beef is freshly minced, formed into patties, and delivered straight to each Marlowe’s kitchen. This careful process guarantees a consistently high-quality, flavorful beef burger that our guests love.
