Was in this pub yesterday ( mothers day) have got to say this is probably the best run drinking and eating house i have been in for a very long time. Plenty of staff. Tables cleaned and glasses collected frequently. Live music and very polite staff.
All round decent pub for both drink and food and to make it even better mad bar staff that make you feel welcome all the time ... by far the best bar along the seafront !
Just stopped for lunch and had the small fish and chips. Tasted amazing. Sat outside on a sunny day, with a sea view, perfect.
Lovely view looking out to sea food was nice bar staff very friendly we sat outside and they gave our dog some water and a bag off meat dogs are allowed outside would definitely go again
**Review for The Castle Pub, Southend on Sea**
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Attending a 60th birthday at The Castle Pub was nothing short of spectacular. This venue marries historic elegance with modern comforts, particularly in the spacious yet intimate upstairs area. What truly elevates the experience is the staff. The bar team's dedication and attentiveness are unparalleled. A special nod to Nic, the exceptional manager, who effortlessly combines efficiency with warmth. Looking for a memorable evening in Southend on Sea? The Castle Pub and its stellar team have you covered. Cheers to Nic and the crew for an unforgettable night!
For me personally, I think it is a great place to visit, spend the night, book a room and even go out on the town. The following day you can have breakfast and then lunch/dinner.
What more could you ask for.
Lovely old building, popular seafront pub. Slightly away from the main strip but seafront prices! Car parking but I think it's for residents only as they have rooms available. Check the website. Pool table. Lots of outside seating.

What a friendly pub with a great atmosphere. Ideal for all ages and kid friendly too. Sit outside with a seaview. Staff amazing and reasonably priced.
Stopped for a drink but ended up having lunch, it was steak Thursday and I was dubious at first, a steak dinner with all the trimmings for £10.....well I had a wonderful surprise! Delicious meal, lovely steak!
We have had Sunday lunch here a few times managed to get a seat by the window great view across the sea
Food good, atmosphere good,
Last time we were here they had entertainment on. Check website
Staff friendly.
Yummy food friendly staff,nice pub right on the seafront
Spent a night here in October 2022. Paid 65 quid for a en-suite room with views over the Estuary. The room was a bit 1980's style and small bathroom but i was okay with that. Great views. Had a few pints in the authentic locals bar. Didn't try the food. Free pool (2 x tables) on Mondays. I would stay again.
