| Brewers Gold! literally its sold here and is liquid heaven! Along with 3 other real ales which constantly change but are always local and kept very well, i have not had a bad pint here for 6 months! Al the manager is always happy and chatty, they serve locally sourced food of a good quality and always seem to have a constant flow of customers. A great pub, run well and definately worth a visit.

| Things are really looking up at this pub which oddly enough lacks any interest on this website despite its superb collection of real ales. Now Kim is front of house, the place has taken on a more friendly feel and efforts are being made for special nights - cheap beer, discounted food and so forth. The owner is really making an effort to lift things here and this deserves recognition. it's in the middle of nowhere but give it a go - you won't regret it. ButchEgg - 3 Jul 2010 19:57 |
| Sadly, my friend and I have stopped coming here - at least not so frequently. It's not as warm as I last suggested and people have been sitting around in their overcoats. Please put the fire back on and we'll come back! ButchEgg - 2 Mar 2008 13:48 |
| The unfriendly barmaid has long since gone and been replaced by those who consider that every customer matters. I do wonder sometimes how it pays it's way - long way out of town and few there after 9pm. But the beer is well worth the visit. Always warm in winter (the place not the beer!) and a lovely place to relax in. I'll cetainly keep coming here. ButchEgg - 10 Oct 2007 14:05 |
| Marvellous interior - typical Essex village pub i.e. hih standards and very friendly. Not totally convinced by the beer (Titanic) - stick to local ales ! mtaylor40 - 3 Dec 2006 21:02 |
