My husband & I came here for lunch today. The new decor is lovely! The staff were so friendly and made an effort to chat to us and our 2 year old daughter, they also kept her entertained with colouring. The food was really good and there was lots of it too! The only thing that was disappointing is that staff should tell customers about unavailable dishes before giving the menu. Otherwise, when it comes to telling the waitress what you want and you're told its not available, you're then left rushing trying to choose something else from the menu. Apart from that, we're proud to say that this pub is our local. We only live 2 mins away, so we will all be coming back again soon. Thanks again for a great lunch x
absolutely amazing! we went for my mum’s birthday and the wonderful lady that served us today brought her a cake. the aesthetics of the place is so nice and the lights in the beer garden are perfect! the last owners food was bad the gammon was really fatty and salty but now it’s so delicious i only eat chicken and next time i’m 1000% getting that. keep up the good work!
Today I visited the Essex skipper newly refurbished version and I would give it a 4 out of five stars.
Staff are friendly and kind the place has a lovely new atmosphere, which is welcoming and light and bright as well as a lovely garden area as well with seaside themed huts
The staff were friendly and kind, although they did seem a little bit, inexperienced on the new menus on offer and I am eventually went for the Sunday roast which was absolutely lovely. Very well presented although my mum had a bad experience as she had a bad piece of meat. Those wanting to give them the benefit of the doubt she ate a meal and then asked about a small refund.
And the toilets are toilets, although I did struggle to get into one of the cubicles due to the size of the cubicles, and I am very small myself .
Overall, a lovely atmosphere and a good experience and would happily go back there again.
