We've popped in a couple of times for a drink whilst out and about on a walk. Lovely friendly staff, good music, nice relaxing outdoor space which I noticed was dog-friendly. Good choice of non-alcoholic drinks. Fabulous and pretty location. We did not eat so I cannot comment on food.
Really nice traditional pub. Would go again.
Well run country pub with food. We had beef roast dinner and cajun chicken both which were delicious. Would definitely recommend
Such a nice place, a gorgeous church next door and a great menu, meals were a good size and price. Great atmosphere as well, staff were lovely, definitely an amazing place to have lunch
Popular rural pub, traditional & welcoming. Very popular, glad we booked a table. The menu has a good selection of options, as well as the expected Sunday roast.
Service was a little slow, but they were extremely busy & all staff were doing their best.
Prices were reasonable & main course was good - Jerk steak was cooked as requested but charring/seasoning was not that evident. Spicy prawns are very nice, but only 4 & quite small. Lots of lattice chips & fresh salad completed my plate. My mother had the crispy chicken which she said was very nice & almost too much!
Desserts were even better - blueberry frangipane with cream & cheesecake with ice-cream.
Good pub grub. Dogs allowed in the lovely enclosed beer garden and in one side room though unfortunately not in the main area. Real old fashioned village community pub feel.
Just what a country pub should be. Quaint & cozy with a roaring fire, welcoming staff & good food. We were here for lunch & had the jumbo fish & chips…delicious. The pub does have a car park but we walked from Heybridge Basin. A great 5 mile walk, mostly flat, along the coastal path. There are a couple of cafes about 2 miles out from Heybridge Basin, so you can break the walk if required. Beware that, unless you want to walk back as we did, the buses are infrequent & taxis aren’t always available. It’s an awesome 10 miles round trip walk with a great pub lunch in the middle.
Lovely cosy atmosphere, and ideal for ramblers & cyclists for its proximity to the Blackwater. Thoroughly enjoyed the food and the staff were friendly & helpful. Great to see a bar billiards table & we enjoyed exploring the side rooms.
Our party of 4 had cycled there from Heybridge last month. They let us take our Bromptons through the pub to the garden for security which was a good start. Beer was first class as was food and service. Highly recommended
The food is excellent. Cajun chicken followed by lemon pie. Service good, prices reasonable. If you are looking for a meal in a nice pub, then give this one a try.
Delicious Sunday roast dinner and Steak and kidney pudding dinner, reasonably priced good quality food, friendly staff in comfortable surroundings.we will definitely be back.
