The Cricketers Inn, Westcliff on Sea

Comfy .... good-ish range of real beer .... often inadequate bar staff (sorry I mean not enough, the one(s) they have is/are fine!

The Cock Inn, Rochford

used to be a good walk to the pub across the surrounding countryside ..... 'til they banned dogs from the spacious gardens.

The Oakwood Public House, Eastwood

rightly acclaimed as the nmost improved pub in the area. could do with a new photo as it now has a very smart garden/patio area at the front. real beer - usually two changing regularly. well worth a visit
