We take great care in sourcing our produce direct from the best suppliers both locally and abroad. Our menu is a mix of classic crowd pleasers and regularly changing seasonal dishes, which means you'll always find something to tempt your taste buds (even if you're in every day!).We are a pub, not a cocktail bar and while we make a blinding Bloody Mary, and will happily mix you an Aperol Spritz or Negroni, we don't do Pina Coladas. That said, we are extremely proud of our wide range of spirits from around the globe, which (where possible) we offer at affordable prices. The wine list has been chosen to provide a simple but high quality selection that goes as well with our food as it does with some good company.

The entire party agreed that the food was excellent. The reason we marked down the srevice slightly was because we had to wait for quite a long time between receiving the bill and being able to pay as the staff were otherwise occupied.

Had the Sunday roast beef to share for 2. The service was impeccable, the food amazing (beef and braised beef shin the highlights with the beef dripping roast potatoes!) and definitely will be coming back. We had some bar snacks to start and the homemade soda bread with whipped marmite butter was an absolute delight! Great new place on Essex Road that is busy and understandably so!

It was a great experience visiting a pub in Uk for the first time. The atmosphere and service was warm and welcoming. We had scotch egg and Wellington beef which were delicious. We paid 49 pounds for the Wellington beef for 2 persons which was a great value for quality.

Tasty food, good prices, nice atmosphere. We went for a Sunday roast with my family and sat at the upper floor which was more quiet. The service was great and the food and wine was very nice.
