The Railway Hotel, Hornchurch

Definitely one of the more better, more comfortable pubs in Hornchurch, where you can sit down, have a good chat and a quiet-ish drink. Not many decent, cosy pubs left in Hornchurch now - there seem to be too many "posy" wine bars popping up!! I like this pub, even it is a bit of walk from Hornchurch town centre. Does get busy at weekends, so get in there early to get a seat

J J Moons, Hornchurch

One of the better Wetherspoon pubs that I have been in (and I do frequent them quite a lot!). The only complaints that I have (and it is the same with all Wetherspoons - is that the clearing up of tables is slow and shoddy and all Wetherspoon pubs are very slow at serving. Need more staff! . Many times, I have sat down at a table to find empty beer glasses, plates of left-over food etc. This place gets absolutely packed out on a Friday/Saturday night, so if you want a decent table and seat - get in there early!!!

The Fatling and Firkin, Hornchurch

A lovely-looking pub right in the middle of Hornchurch High Street. If you like really loud ear-bashing live bands, a hot packed-out pub where you have to stand up all night on a Friday/Saturday - then fine. Personally, not my cup of tea. I like a quieter pub, where I can sit down and have a quiet, comfortable drink, so I will only go in there Mon-Weds when there are no trashy, live bands on. Lovely outside sitting area - great in the summer. If it wasnt for the ear-deafening live bands and been too packed out on Fri/Sat nights, I might go in there a bit more often
