This Essex restaurant has become a celebrity hotspot in recent years, attracting a host of familiar faces, from TV stars to England footballers.
Sheesh in Chigwell, set in the historic Ye Olde Kings Head on High Road, has spent more than a decade drawing high-profile guests including Lord Alan Sugar, Tyson Fury, and Harry Kane.
The restaurant, which serves Turkish and Mediterranean-inspired dishes, was launched in 2010 by founder Dylan Hunt and has since become one of the most recognisable dining destinations in Essex.
Its appeal extends far beyond social media, with regulars and one-time diners reportedly including Cheryl, Russell Crowe, Sir Rod Stewart, and Millie Bobby Brown.
Sheesh has also cemented its place in reality TV circles, with Mark Wright, Olly Murs, and Tommy Mallet named among its celebrity fans.
Other reported visitors include Little Mix, Katie Price, and Tyson Fury.
The restaurant’s success is partly attributed to its location in Chigwell, an area long favoured by wealthy residents and celebrities.
Sheesh offers an upmarket dining experience without the need to travel into central London.
The building itself has a long history and was once the Ye Olde Kings Head pub, thought to date back to the 16th or 17th century.
It was acquired in 2010 by Lord Sugar’s property company Amsprop, before being extensively renovated and reopened as Sheesh.
Its enduring reputation eventually led to the opening of a Mayfair branch in London.
Despite expanding into the capital, the Chigwell location remains the heart of the brand, with its celebrity appeal firmly rooted in the culture and lifestyle of Essex.
