Home From Home

We’re your home from home in the heart of Grays. We have a varied menu, along with a separate kids, vegan and gluten free menu. Pop on down!

Why are we called Casco, we hear you ask? Well, Lakeside Shopping Centre is in West Thurrock, and the archaic translation for Thurrock is essentially the hull of a ship. Casco is hull in Portuguese… bit long-winded but we got there in the end!
