The Wine Cellar

Had a lovely long lunch in the wine cellar. It's a unique venue in a cozy atmospheric cellar. Very decent lunch menu with a choice of cooked food from a set menu or selection of sandwiches. We had the set menu. The food was simple British food with a variety of meat and veg options. The portions were generous. Presentation and taste was to perfection. The pricing was very budget friendly ( 3 courses for Under 30 pounds). There was a good selection of beer on tap with an extensive wine menu. We had a very long and lazy lunch from 13 till 16. The waiters were attentive. Do check the opening times as it is closed early in the week. Highly recommended for that special occasion.

Came back here for the first time after a few years to celebrate my Dad's birthday. It was a Wednesday evening with the table booked for 6pm. There were four of us and upon arrival, the atmosphere was slightly lacking as it had just opened so we were the only customers. However, as more people arrived and the addition of great background music (mainly 80s which was great for me!), it felt really relaxing. Two of us went for the set menu (£22.95 for 2 courses and £25.95 for 3 courses) whilst the remainder went for A-la-carte. All dishes were very tasty and served in a reasonable time. We had a variety of drinks and the pinot grigio and the shiraz went down a treat. We appreciated the little touches for my Dad which included a wine bottle on the table decorated in West Ham references and musical notes (they had asked in advance what kind of things he is interested in) and at the end a free shot of limoncello! I'd also like to praise Harry who was our waiter. He was a really friendly and funny guy who had banter with my Dad which helped make his night feel extra special. This is a lovely, cosy restaurant in Chelmsford and I hope it continues to do well.

The wonderful team at the wine cellar accommodated a late request for us to hold our wedding reception at their venue. they did it all with the most perfect professional attitude. the drinks, service and hospitality were amazing. thank you so much for making our special day go perfect !!

My friends and I went for dinner last night and the food was sensational. I had the cod with summer vegetables - it was one of the best meals I've ever had! The wine and espresso martinis were fantastic. Such brilliant staff and service. I can't wait to come again. I can't recommend this restaurant enough! Thanks so much for looking after us x
