please note - reviews on this site are purely the opinion of site visitors, so don't take them too seriously.
Reopened now as The Windmill after an extensive refurbishment. Locals tell me its a very different place with good food and a range of GK Ales.
Will visit soon

Nice pub with nice garden. Shit service.

I used to come here almost daily throughout the early-mid nineties when it was at it's peak. It would be packed at the weekend with a devoted assortment of regulars from all over Essex and beyond. Made the mistake of going back last week. There's a stage where all the sofas used to be. There's a dj playing chart music on CD's! (Real Dj's use vinyl) And it's full of chavvy twats with rubbish cars. It was like seeing an old girlfriend and realising she'd put on 6 stone and suffered a brain-injury. Bloody awful.

this is without doubt the best pub to get drunk in within a five mile radius. in fact everyone in there seems to have gone there for that specific reason. everyone is drunk but in the main quite friendly. some entertaining nands

wot beer garden? there isnt one all there is, is a bit of deckin out the front right on the edge of a main road.

use this pub sometimes when hornchurch is boring us , not a bad pub beers ok , would avoid at lunchtime as get a fair few 6th formers from the college in and the pool tables are hogged , but not too bad , the staff seem ok whenever ive been there and the beer garden is only a bit of decking in the car park but on a hot summers day this is brilliant for a relaxing pint in the sun

Whilst walking the London Loop, we were forced to resort to this pub for lunch on a Sunday afternoon. On the face of it, it looked OK, but I discovered a curious green gelatinous blob at the bottom of my pint of IPA and the food was decidedly average. The bar staff were stroppy and unfriendly and the service was grudging at best. The beer 'garden' (actually a bit of decking in the car park) was not the worst and it at least afforded us fine views of the local chav crews as they sauntered past in the May sunshine. My advice? Avoid this pub unless you're so hungry you're about to faint (which we were).

Could not help but laugh when reading reviews of this friendly pub. The same pub that recently had a shooting in the car park. Also whoever wrote the comment about the nice garden bar either must own the pub or be stupid woould as the beer garden is in the car park!

Great Staff, nice clean place with a nice atmosphere.
Very basic and small but nice garden bar and cosy couches in the corner. Pool table.
