Good selection of beers. Nice atmosphere. Busy at times.
Had a really nice roast dinner this afternoon with me and my 2 children both really enjoyed it, big servings and price wasnt bad. Friendly staff also. Definitely returning
Came in for a quiet pint. Best pub for a long time. Bar staff were spot on with their recommendations. Owners took there time to have a chat. Definitely will be coming back.
Nice place and nice atmosphere, but hope they fix the furniture where needed! Young barman didn't know what some drinks were, which was hilarious!
My local. Friendly staff. Great Sunday roasts. Cold beers. Several ales. Nice outside seating at the front and back where you can watch the world and people pass by.
A good pub, it is well run and has an excellent selection of beers, wines and spirits. It does do Sunday lunch, but I have never eaten one, as they are usually sold out by the time I get there. Best to book I feel. Try it!
Proper pub. Lovely range of beers available comfy seating and decent size as it goes round the back. Avoid all the in town pain and just have a relaxing beer here. It's mint.
Traditional pub with good beer and a lovely beer garden.
The pork meat was a bit dry and cold just a bit ... 4 out 5

Very friendly staff and owner. Calm atmosphere, no TVs or game machines, thank goodness! Excellent for a quiet drink and chat with friends or perhaps to sit and read a book or the papers. They opened as much as they could during lockdown, which I think was admirable. They often have interesting gues
My parents local. Decent prices and friendly atmosphere. Lovely bar staff. All good.
Decent pub and nice selection of drinks
Well kept beer, friendly bar staff and customers. I wrote about access earlier but a reminder that it is an old building with some steps. You can sit outside at a pavement table or there is a patio area at the back of the pub. It has been refurbished inside with comfortable chairs around smaller tab
Great little pub very traditional 👍
Very popular traditional pub serving a wide range of ales, lagers and lots of other beers. A good menu and good atmosphere. A real local pub with quality.
Been wanting to come here for a while. There was always a rumour that this was a good pub because the old boys undergoing radiotherapy at the (now closed) cancer treatment wing of Colchester hospital used to sneak out here, much to the annoyance of the nurses . Good traditional boozer. Adnams pub so
Very friendly Adnams boozer. Beer well kept and a nice courtyard to the rear. Right next to an Indian restaurant also so handy if you want a pint before or after a curry :)
Wendy and Charlie wow what fantastic landlords noting is 2 much trouble a wide range of gins and loafs of ales and largers when your in the area you must try this pub you won't be disappointed
Okay pub, I didn't find it very atmospheric
