  “A cracking pub with really good out door space. A little pricey but worth it. Food was great too.”

  “We met here for a team drink and catch up between terms. The barman was absolutely brilliant, and the pub is very dog friendly. The only bad part was the Staffie type dog I encountered in the beer garden. It wasn't under control, but I expect the owners were under the influence.”

  “Had a couple of pints here on a fairly warm day. They have a garden at the back with an area that is covered in case it's raining. Reasonably good choice of beers and drinks, although perhaps felt a bit rushed at the bar compared to some of the other places we had been in the same day.”

  “One of the best pubs in Colchester and the area. Cozy and traditional with a fantastic range of changing craft and cask beers and friendly chatty staff. Not sure if this place does hot food but bar snacks are available. Nice looking scotch and other whiskeys available as well as wines, ciders, lagers etc... Nice range of Belgian beers also available too. Time passes very quickly in here. Short walk from both Colchester (mainline),Colchester Town stations and the town centre. Will definitely return. For beer people this pub is also Untappd verified and has its own badge too.”

  “Absolutely love this pub. Only moved to Colchester from London late last year and was worried about the pub situation, given the binge booze Britain reputation of the main strip. Despite that, have managed to find a few decent pubs, this one being the best. Independent brews on the taps, friendly, knowledgeable staff, nice beer garden and a warm atmosphere. Quite a mix of clientele from younger to older. Live music weekly, lots of ale, cider etc events. Reminds me of going to the pub with my dad, when I was a kid. Perfect. The only downside is that I haven't been able to get there as frequently as I would like, due to having had my first child recently! Photo is from the beer garden”

  “Good old English pub. Won the award for the best cider of last year. They serve about 8 different types of cider. I had the 7.4% alcohol. It was not as sweet as bulmers cider, but had a smoother taste. Unfortunately, they don’t serve any cooked food not to mention a pub lunch. I was looking forward to having a pub lunch, because there is always a uniqueness to the food cooked in pubs. The people in the pub were friendly. The lady who served was polite, pleasant and willing to serve. She also recommended the cider I drank. Only had one pint, since I was driving later and did not want to be over the limit.”

  “Nice choice of beer in a cosy establishment. It does indeed feel like a 'proper pub'. Beer was well kept and decent price. I honestly can't fault it. Ended up here after a cycle ride from Norwich and it was a welcome stop off!”
