The Angel

I'm just down a little on this visit, 4/5 stars. It may be that there are staff pressures, they are certainly looking to recruit staff. However the Angel seemed a little quiet on our visit. Attention to detail can reveal more than is apparent, and the personable touch is always appreciated by the customer. I'm asked to give a table number but after much searching find that many tables don't have numbers displayed; table condiments: salt and pepper: one is missing, the other is near empty, i ask for ketchup, and I'm given a very cold glass bottle 90% empty and does not deliver any of its contents. So these are small concerns but... The food was generally good, and patrons can expect a good value pub experience. I would certainly recommend getting their app which has some generous offers.

Wonderful caring and highly efficient service by Julie and the team. From the moment you walk into The Angel you are immediately put at ease. The food is excellent. Thank you Julie for the kindness and care you showed after I was anxious about dropping my hubby for treatment at nearby Broomfield Hospital. The Angel is aptly named - Angels work here as well. Thank you.

I can't comment on food per say as only had nibbles. We were really there for afternoon drinks with friends. They had a good selection of beers wines and spirits. Large garden area to enjoy the sun and all reasonably priced. I didn't get the bar staff names but both barmaids friendly and swift service.

Visited the angel on Friday with my daughter. Its such a lovely pub with a cosy atmosphere. I have visited lots of times but don't always stay for food. Friday we ate here and the food was lovely. Found out the chef was Rhys. The food was cooked beautifully, piping hot, didn't wait long and a great end to a lovely day. Thank you, will be back before the holidays end :)

We moved to Chelmsford a year ago and although I’ve been in for a cheeky pint we’ve never been in for a full sit down meal. With my mum visiting from the north we decided to pop in for a roast before taking baby Foodmunkey to the pirate ship playground around the back. From the outset we were greeted warmly having the door held open for us to bring the pram in, seated and provided our menus. The service though was fantastic throughout, even allowing us to order our sons food later on when he woke up. The trio roast was amazing. I just wish I’d have ordered more pigs in blankets as my wife stole my only one haha! For the most part the starters were lovely, I’d just have liked the sauce on the prawn cocktail to have a little extra kick, but that’s just my preference. We will definitely be back though for another roast and just for a general sit down meal! Or even just a cheeky pint…. Again 😜
