Lovely relaxed carvery, with easy going, tasty food... including gluten free gravy 👌. We needed to find somewhere that could accommodate a big group of us (13) and they were easily able to do so. Would highly recommend.

If you're in the mood for a mouth-watering burger, this pub is a must-visit. The burgers here are simply fantastic. Every bite is bursting with flavor, and the quality of the ingredients is top-notch. The chefs at this pub clearly know how to make a great burger. The patties are juicy and perfectly cooked, and the buns are soft and fresh. The toppings are all classic favorites, like fresh lettuce, ripe tomatoes, and tangy pickles. And if you're a fan of cheeseburgers, you won't be disappointed with the gooey melted cheese that perfectly complements the patty. The portions are generous, so you'll definitely leave feeling full and satisfied. And if you're looking for a side to go with your burger, the fries are crispy and delicious. The pub itself has a great atmosphere, with friendly staff and a welcoming vibe. It's the perfect spot to grab a beer and enjoy a delicious burger with friends or family. Overall, if you're a burger lover, this pub is a must-visit. You won't be disappointed with the quality of the food, the service, or the atmosphere. Highly recommended!

Went to this pub. Excellent place and hospitality by Paula and Bekky (manager) had made our experience good. We ordered children menu and the kids loved it. With the kids play area was the icing on the cake. You have darts and billiards.. it's to go place in Colchester for family for a drink and food along with family time... True British pub with Sunday roast.. as expected was full to the brim. With a very big garden space it's and to go place.

It's open again! Lovely pub with a huge beer garden complete with climbing frame for the kids. We went once before but they were shutting down so I think they must be under new management. They didn't have any menus so the waiter had to talk us through what they did have which as it was a Sunday was roast anyway. They served it in a huge Yorkshire pudding and the portion wasn't too big or small and was quite tasty.
