| Visited for a quick pint and found this place to be pleasant enough. there were three real ales on offer, I chose the Thwaites Wainwright but it wasn't quite up to it's normal high standard, the virtual lack of head possibly took the edge of it for me, and at £3.10 per pint, a little expensive, even in these times. The pub itself was interesting with seperate rooms and what appeared to be friendly enough locals. There was a live acoustic set in a room to the rear, but the £4 entry curtailed my interest as I was only stopping for one beer. Would visit again, but it was more average to good, than exceptional.

| The Half Moon is OK but it always smells of damp! TheBeerMaster - 27 Feb 2011 21:42 |
| Been redecorated so no more lumps of plaster falling of the wall! Otherwise still the best pub in Stortford. graham2 - 13 Feb 2011 12:25 |

| Great selection of real ale, with a rotation of guest ales, at a reasonable price - served by friendly, albeit cheeky, staff. Also the usual spirits and a selection of reasonable wines. Now undergoing a most needed revamp under the ‘new owners’ and lovely landlady. It should turn out to be a tasteful update to the establishment’s antique feel. Quite a venue on the music scene, though I have never been to a ‘gig’ there yet. It has a choice of two bars and a small offshoot room to the rear of the upper bar. The lower bar has a number of tables and a rubber pig (it used to be a rubber chicken!) hanging from the ceiling to ‘Oink’ for attention when staff are in the upper bar… and beware the informal rule; you buy the staff a drink if you ‘oink’ when they are there already! Nice ‘hidden’ garden at the rear and a nice courtyard space too. Normally has a paper or two, which you can peruse if you have popped in on your own for a quick pint. A very good place to meet for a friendly drink - Especially if like good ale. PJ1 - 6 Dec 2010 11:31 |
