Lovely country town pub, that proudly offers their freshly made food. As first time visitors we enjoyed a warm welcome and great food. The steak & ale pie and fish & chips were clearly made by a chef with a passion for good English cooking. The sherry cake desert was nice but could have been more convincing. Service with a smile. We'll be back.

Slow and surly service. And to make matters worse the bartender could not even pour the drinks properly. Wonder why it was empty.

Fantastic village pub with an extensive menu of delicious food. There is definitely something for everyone. Desert Menu is a must! All freshly cooked & served by helpful & accommodating staff. Lovely little beer garden tucked away up through the archway.

This place is brilliant, I always make time to come here for a meal when in Essex. The food is spectacularly good, the pies, the fries, and especially the home smoked brisket. Last night I had the minted lamb steaks which were far, far better than anything I've been served in London for months. I'm half tempted to go there again today!

Booked a family meal for eight of us. Menu had plenty of choice, all the usual pub food favourites (steaks, pies, fish, gammon), and a few extras as well. Good to see a choice of vegetarian friendly options, I can recommend the veggie lasagne which was very tasty and filling. Everyone was extremely happy with the food, the service was good and all very reasonably priced.
