Anne Boleyn Hungry Horse in Rochford

Really sad this place has gone downhill! from tonights experience I will never return I have enjoyed this place over the years but tonight absolutely appalled from the quality of the food and the size of the portions were disappointing considering it was meant ti be the larger option. generally shocked at the state of the food the chicken was equivalent of tinned boiled chicken no flavour at all and when asked how our meals are and we responded that they was actually not very nice and small we was just quickly told sorry about that then the waiter just scurried off without saying anything more

Went to Anne boleyn tonight for birthday meal tonight as expected the staff was magnificent and did everything spot on bend over backwards to help us have a lovely evening I just love coming to this place And also our big thanks goes to DAMIEN AND MICHELLE for such loves hosts and helping us have such brillant night Thank you guys we will be back soon!!!!!!!!! Alison, Steph and Lee ❤️❤️

Lovely food, lovely staff and Damon is a star. A pleasure as always. Be back very soon with more family and friends.xxxxx

Lovely atmosphere, professional staff, great food and drink selections. Perfect day or night out. Thankyou

Nice atmosphere and no loud music 👌

Had a lovely frozen yogurt bowl ! And my partner had a full English that was also good. Sasha was very accommodating and friendly. Will be back

What a lovely pub! Ash behind the bar was simply delightful, so kind and patient with me—made my evening so much more enjoyable!

Had an amazing time at this pub! The drinks were great and Ash made the experience even better

Tried this local pub for the first time and have to say, it was very welcoming. The bar staff, especially Sasha made me feel welcome and comfortable. The atmosphere was great and made me feel at ease. Will definitely visit again.

Really enjoy their food and atmosphere

Been going to this pub for many years. Damien and Michelle the managers, make you feel very welcome and are excellent at their jobs. Would recommend to everyone.

Been here few times and absolutely loved it here

I have been in the Ann Boleyn haveing my meals for a long time now and I can highly recommend the food and the staff to the highest degree don

Steak was lovely but only a small amount of peas and onion rings. Didn't like chips they tasted abit earthy.

Michelle was very lovely during our time here at the Anne Boleyn. 5* customer service. Thank you again! 🥰

Fly🦟 problem that needs sorting out big time trying to eat whilst the flys are on vacation flying over your plait of food ain't the one.

Food was very good service was very good and great value for money

Quantity of food has gone down hill as has the variety on the menu. Not such good value for money as it used to be.

We booked a long table for 13 of us for my mums 80th birthday. She didn't want a fuss but we arranged a few of her close friends and family to surprise her at the pub. We were allowed to decorate the area with banners and balloons. The service was absolutely superb, especially Ash who took great care of us. The kitchen did an amazing job as all 13 meals came out together, all piping hot and all great quality. We also took advantage of the fizz offer at weekends... Mum had a great birthday and everyone complemented us on the venue... Thanks to all the staff involved.

It's an OK place not many vegan options and a great deal of tables had been reserved for people so had to hunt about for a free one

Anne Boleyn, part of green king chain, was doing a buy one get one burger deal so we decided to give it a try. We ordered the Quadzilla, Korean BBQ and Southern comfort Texas toast burgers The quadzilla was huge with 2 patties each of beef and chicken, it was really good. Korean burger with 2 chicken patties was amazing as well. The Texas toast came in a bread unlike other burgers which came in a bun. It had fried chicken with mac n cheese. The bread was bit too dry and hard else everything was ok. Overall a great experience and a huge value for money, each of the burger after applying the deal was around 7 GBP 🤩🤩

Food was bland and portions wasn't great either, I was expecting more considering price.

Food was delicious, service friendly and quick

Staff are amazing here brilliant customer service, they create a lovely environment to relax with friends or family. Food is lovely everytime especially the chicken skewer mix it up dish 😋

I have become a regular here and attend 3/4 times a week. Staff are very friendly and welcoming and the food is always quick, delicious and on top quality. 10/10

Great pub food at very good prices! Enjoyed my visits there while staying in the area

We went when it was quiet, early evening. The staff were very friendly and the food was excellent. There is a different deal every day, and makes eating out more affordable.

First and last time for us. Food was awful. Service was poor. Toilets are disgusting.

Lovely food and pretty fast service for a Saturday night. Just wish my dessert was bigger! Waitress Sasha was brilliant

Would come again, large group of young men drinking way to much ripping each others T-shirts off and the manager just lets them do this. I thought it was a family pub but definitely not. Avoid

Food was delicious, friendly and quick service. Great new menu, kofta flatbread is a must. Shall be returning again soon

Average chain pub. Cheap and cheerfull.

Daughters mocktail was 3/4 ice.no flavour.roast dinners were so dry,we asked for extra gravy as we was really hungry.potstoes looked like they'd been reheated multiple times and were almost black.veg was dry and hard.mash was nice.meat was standard.its not good that the chef thought these meals looked appetising enough to send out.wish I took pics.complained which I hate doin and got money back for the roasts.my Daughters mac n cheese she enjoyed and puddings were really nice. Sorry but needs a new chef before it deteriorates even more.it used to be so busy there and hard to get a table .the food is a let down. The staff were all very nice though

The bar has amazing members of staff and lovely to chat to. It wasn't pricey at all. I had a great night with friends. I always have a fun night at this pub.

Lovely place. Nice atmosphere and super friendly staff - most notably Sasha and Bella!

Great night, Damien and the crew are always friendly, service is fantastic. Highly recommend 👍

Food wasn't very good but its a good place to meet friends have a catch up and a few drinks

Friendly staff who are very hard working. Good atmosphere. Great food.

Came here last week, was impressed with the food but not blown away by the service, was a generally ok experience, so when my dad suggested we go for lunch I said let’s give the Anne Boleyn another go. Well, what an experience we had. I’ve never been spoken to so rudely, the lady at the bar either needs a new job that she actually wants to be at, or needs retraining on customer service. The first issue was when she asked what table we were at and how many of us. I told her and she responded with ‘that’s a table for up to 8, you obviously can’t sit there’ and told me we needed to move before ordering. I wouldn’t mind but my toddler had ran and sat at that table and it was reasonably empty so I didn’t see the issue. So we moved table and I returned to the bar. Placed my order, and asked to use my staff discount. She produced the scanner with a huff, I explained I don’t have a QR code I only have the discount code which I received through work. Was told I can’t use this and need the QR code, I explained I don’t have one and I used it just last week and never had an issue. She tried to insinuate I was using someone else’s code! So I loaded up my work portal and showed her, to be told she’ll remember my face and is only doing it this once!!🤣🤣🤣🤣 is that supposed to be a threat?! Also making a point of noting my full name! Good luck love, because I’m not dishonest and did nothing wrong. She had an issue and an attitude from the get go, I work in retail management and know how frustrating work can be and that we all have ‘off’ days but this was beyond that. I’ve never felt so condescended and disgusted in my life. She just spoke to me like I was a major inconvenience and a criminal!! And also you absolutely can just type a code in even if I did have a QR code, whatever the CUSTOMER prefers. I spoke to a server about this and she was lovely and very apologetic. She said she would inform her manager- any good manager would come out and apologise themselves but never saw him/her. Maybe that’s just me in my role, but I’d want my customer to leave feeling their issue has been resolved. Won’t be returning simply because of this, if you’re looking for nice food and don’t care if you’re spoken to like a child- then go for it.

Had a fab meal and great staff. Highly recommended. Love the new items on the menu. X

Went there today,ordered breakfast, never again,food was only luke warm,was like had bn warmed up in microwave....apart from the egg,that was good,but the 1 sausage,half cooked bacon,beans nd toast was horrible....the girl clearing the table was rude also...not a good experience...very disappointed as bn there several times before for lunch nd no complaints

Booked this for my mum's 60th birthday, and they didn't disappoint us. Around 25 people turned up. Space for all of us was reserved. Food and drinks ordered at different points when people wanted, and all was accommodated. It was a lovely day, and the staff made it run smoothly for us, too. The food was lovely and cooked well. Most people ate, and not one had a complaint.

I've been to the Ann Boleyn for lunch several times and usually have Steak & Ale pie and Mash which is good quality and good value. Today I had their Full English Breakfast and although the quality was good the quantity was more like a kids portion. One sausage, one egg, two strips of bacon, 2 hash browns and one spoonful of baked beans, no toast or fried bread, no black pudding, but being down south didn't really expect that. When placing the order I asked "as I don't like mushrooms could I have a few more beans or second sausage instead ?", well I thought they might throw me out for making such a blasphemous request and the answer was no. So rather disappointing and I won't be ordering that again

Great place, service and food always excellent. Value for money. Parking. Highly rated this place. Staff are amazing

Food was ok,and reasonably priced

We had an excellent dining experience at the Anne Boleyn this evening. The service was outstanding; friendly, attentive and nothing was too much trouble. Our food arrived promptly and everything was delicious. The prices are extremely reasonable, with so much choice on the menu. Thank you for making our daughter’s birthday meal very special!

Great pub grub, large amount, good quality, tasty and great price. Helpful staff, Sasha. There is a good menu choice no matter the meal time.

Service was fantastic, Ash went above and beyond for us!!!

Came for a few drinks in the sun and was served by a young lady called Ash, who was absolutely brilliant and really attentive, despite having to serve loads of people at the same time! Bar area was really clean and there was a good atmosphere, plus the food smelled amazing, will definitely have to try that soon!

Came in last weekend & had an excellent time. Very friendly place, and the server Ash was fantastic. Overall a lovely pub, and would recommend it to anybody looking for a relaxed experience.

Had a lovely day last Thursday at the Anne Boleyn. Atmosphere was very nice, and food was very tasty! Ash served me & was very friendly, so I had a great time.

Came into this lovely pub on Wednesday and was met with a friendly atmosphere and lovely staff, the staff member Ash couldn’t be more helpful! Will definitely be back 😁

I had a great time at the pub last weekend. Bar staff were friendly, Ash made me feel welcome. Will definitely come again.

Came by with a friend and the food was great! Unfortunately, it was one of the busier days on the weekend but my server made it great. First time having drinks with a friend and someone named Ash was my bartender. I'm new to drinking and she gave me the blue lagoon recommendation. Really pretty color and was a really nice first-timer experience. Thank you so much to her! I came back on another day for the outdoor seating and a nicer day.

Came in last weekend & we had a lovely time. Good drinks, good food and staff were lovely, particularly Ash!

There was this one waitress, Ash, she was so sweet and provided such great service. It was my first time ever going to a pub and she made the experience 10x better!! 12/10 would go again 🥰

Amazing food Sasha was fantastic will definitely come back

Absolutely ghastly roast dinner was the worst I've ever had could of used the beef to plug a hole in me boots...asked for a steak knife stateing meats to tuff she just laughed the chef is a total Rodney..shocking nasty will never use this gaff again I've had better food in Iran Kenya and that was road kill waste of money time life etc ..and there was more flys in there than around a cows Harris..total let down

Just been to the Hungry Horse .... chose the Sunday Roast beef dinner ... I was shocked about the toughness of the beef ... I even had to ask for a steak knife as it was so tough!! When I remarked to the waitress, she just giggled!! ... I can't believe that a chef would produce such a terrible roast beef ... even using the steak knife I had trouble cutting into it ... and so I left it ... what a waste of money!! The carrots were not peeled and looked dirty, the pigs in blankets (which were an extra £1.99), were anemic ... and they seem to have a bad FLY problem... which is annoying ... wish I'd ordered the turkey.... but who knows what that might have been like ... not ever going there again so they've lost my custom for good! CHEF; you need to learn how to cook Topside beef.... it really isn't that difficult!!

Breakfast every Saturday with my mum. Damion is fab knows our drinks always friendly, says hello to mum. Food amazing value and hot and tasty. Great local pub...

Haven't been to Hungry Horse for so long. Can't remember the last time we went. I can't believe the prices of the meal. My husband had, the crown burger, only £13.29 and my burger sizzler combo, only £13.99! What a bargain! 😁 Sadly we didn't have any room for dessert as we ate all of our dinner 😋 The staff were lovely and the atmosphere was so peaceful. Hopefully the next time we go, I go for a lighter meal so I can get to enjoy dessert as well 😁

Great food, very quick service, very reasonably priced, good sized portions , Only downside for us, which wasn't the Ann's fault, was a very noisy child whose parents couldn't be bothered with , but that seems quite normal behaviour nowadays unfortunately.

Love this place, Great atmosphere, great service and reasonably priced food... Kids holidays especially where you can feed the family for £15...

Nice big pub. No frills. Food not bad but reasonably priced.

Great place for a drink and food.

Had a late lunch here, service was quick and friendly.

Amazing staff. Especially Ross. Brilliant service. Very attentive. Couldn’t have asked for more. Can’t wait to come back.

Great food. Nice that they have vegan choices.

Nice food, options for vegans, vegetarians and Gluten Free on rhe menus.

The place by it self not too bad.

Excellent food, customer service and efficient. Would recommend this place for all ages, if you are on a budget or want to take the family for a quality dining table experience

Always welcoming staff good food missed the fact that my order had mayo on it. I hate mayo and told the staff no problem that changed it.

Lovely pub with the friendliest staff and a wonderfully inviting atmosphere! Fantastic dinner report from all the family too! Definitely coming back!

Lovely place, reasonably priced, good food. Portions are very generous! We will be back.

fantastic food and enormous portions. we really appreciate the time spent here

Wonderful friendly atmosphere, served by a super young man Damian. Will definitely have a return visit to have another tender cooked steak.

Good staff service from all staff but Sasha in particular , always polite and fast to take orders. 100% would reccomend to locals

All bar staff are brilliant but Sasha and ash are excellent and provide 10/10 services. Good prices and massive choices of drinks

Great variety of food at a good price.

Had a lovely meal here today hot food was very good quality beautifully layed out friendly helpful staff

Great food and drinks and lovely staff.

Only popped in for a couple of pints, great atmosphere

Came here today . I had the smoking jack burger . It wasn't very nice . Hubby had the gravy one . He said it was very dry and not nice

Went for a meal 7 adts 2 small children. Atmosphere lovely ordered our food which was amazing us waited about 10 minutes . Staff very friendly. Really lovely time here . First visit definitely going again

Look out for their special deals, check their website. Good value food at a good price.

Excellent service and reasonably priced.

We were a party of nine, seven of us were obviously much older l than twenty one and two were seventeen. The seventeen year olds had ordered along with their meals a cider and a wine with lemonade which were paid for with our order. When our waitress came with our drinks she said she couldn’t serve them as the policy was not to serve alcohol without ID. Although by law if you’re 16 or 17 and accompanied by an adult, you can drink (but not buy) beer, wine or cider with a meal which I knew at the time of ordering as I am a licensee myself. The drinks could not be refunded but we were offered to take them home with us. The service was friendly and the food was nice but this rule which the staff were following was dictated by their manager who was not present at our visit. This put a damper on our evening and if a restaurant has a policy that doesn’t allow seventeen year olds to have alcoholic drinks I think we should be advised before we order and pay for them!

Staff absolutely miserable, women in charge is vile. Rude, lazy and disrespectful. Steer well clear. How she’s allowed to work here is beyond me, no wonder the rest of the staff are like they are with her around!

Just had the Easter breakfast at the Anne Boleyn and my daughter had a lovely time. Mr Easter Bunny was engaging with all the kids and making them feel welcome while the kids were playing with the colouring pack. Kids were also given an Easter egg which was an extra surprise. Thanks

This is a hit and miss pub sometimes it excels sometimes it fails. Unfortunately it was mediocre

Stacey was amazing, so welcoming and friendly. Open and friendly. Very helpful. Couldn’t do more for me. Will definitely be back!

Have always had a great time in the anney being a regular for many years lunch on Friday with my boys and especially the manager Michelle always made us welcome also Damien and all the staff are amazing make you feel welcome and have a laugh. good place for food and drink and fairly priced

I was very impressed with my meal at the ann boleyn

Had fish and chips which is usually lovely, but tonight it was flat, very spongy texture, not cod or haddock strange fish, and they used different batter, that was grainy texture. Please go back to fish you have always used

Really good meals with excellent service. Very large portions

I have awarded a 5 out of 5 based on expectations. Obviously it's not a mitchalin Star, so for our exspiriance of the Hungry Horse simple and casual it was splendid and if u havnt been for years please give it a go, u will NOT be disappointed

Advertising 2 adult meals and 2 kids meals nxt to each other . Adults deal is two meals for £11. Kids eat for £1. After you order and pay . Payed £24 as can't get both deals together on website looks like you can wasn't imprest think was con.

Friendly service. Food perfectly acceptable. One of us had mini mixed grill which is superb and one had the mixed grill. The only difference was steak and onion rings on the mixed grill. The steak was cooked as requested, medium rare. I had the chicken skewer sizzler which was more than adequate. All in all a very nice satisfying lunch. Value for money.

Lovely staff always polite & friendly

Been a couple times now since moving to the area and it's been a lovely meal each time. Pub feels welcoming and staff have always been friendly. Will be coming back in future for sure
