Superb food and beer but the loud, thoroughly unpleasant, dated music was the worst imaginable. Worse than supermarkets or hotel lifts. I would have loved to stay for a sweet and another pint but my ears would have tried to shut off the blood flow to my brain. If you are under eighty you probably won't like it.

Superb setting, a hidden Essex gem bang in the middle of Essex Way country walk. Food was excellent, the interior was clean well kept and a step back in time. To add the Guinness was well kept, highly recommended. GB.

We have visited this characterful traditional country pub several times in recent months to both drink and eat. As locals, we are delighted that the place has been restored to a pub that is open in the evenings as well as lunch times and doesn't just cater for the mass market. The landlord welcomes drinkers, something not so common in food serving pubs these days. There is always a choice of excellently kept beer that changes regularly and the small but cosy bar area gives just what a country pub should.

The menu changes regularly and the quality of food is very good and well priced. This is not a 'sling and ping' plastic pub that serves microwaved meals in artificial surroundings. The food is freshly cooked and the chips are made from real potatoes, not of the reconstituted fast food convenience type.

We have sampled many of the dishes on offer in recent months and can recommend the steaks and the fish. The favourite though has to be the home made Steak & kidney pudding. Delicious!

Booked for Sunday lunch on the strength of the previous reviews. Ordered Traditional roast beef & Ribeye steak (medium rare), Ribeye turned up burnt, the chips were fried in tainted oil along with the mushrooms( surely these should have been grilled)! The roast potatoes accompanying the roast beef were also burnt and inedible. Steak was replaced - a great improvement, although new chips & mushrooms were still nasty.Manager asked how everything was,and took exeption to us pointing out the shortfalls with the meal- complaining that we hadn't given him the chance to put things right, does he not speak to his staff?
All in all probably the worst meal I have had in long time, and that includes Turkish Airport food.
