  “A little gem of a pub tucked in the heart of Colchester city centre, just by the castle and park. The atmosphere is very warm, the staff are very friendly and welcoming. The food is amazing. It just happened to be St Patrick's day on my last visit and the place was buzzing with friendly locals and a live Irish, couldn't resist the temptation of an Irish stew.”

  “Went for a Sunday roast and the beef was really tasty. Good portion size with lots of greens and gravy. The cauliflower cheese was not so cheese but equally good. Inside we got a nice family-friendly atmosphere - the only unit thing is that it was quite cold inside, so it would make it perfect if they increase the heating a bit (comment posted in February)”

  “Called in at the Foresters Arms tonight while in the area . If happened to be steak night so my wife and I had steak and a sweet and got a free bottle of wine . The steak "Ribeye" was cooked well and the meal was excellent. The staff were friendly and nothing was too much trouble . I would visit again and would highly recommend.”

  “Fun, friendly and cozy local Colchester pub. Slightly tucked away but well worth searching out. Friendly and professional staff, good food and importantly clean beer. A nice changing selection of Ales. Definitely one to recommend. A large car park is situated close by if that’s your thing, bus stops also a two minute walk.”

  “Had a fabulous afternoon yesterday. Linda serving the food. Lucy serving drinks and Louise cooked the most amazing cauliflower & Lentil pie. When I asked for cheesy mash they said your wish is my command. Perfect. 3 hours we spent in the pub. Perfect.”
