Radio City Social in Chelmsford

Small but perfectly formed, Radio City is only a couple of minutes from the bus and train stations, and more than worth the visit. With 18 craft beers on tap, plus a fridge full of interesting bottles and cans, ciders, wine, spirits, mead, and soft drinks, the choice on offer means there's something for everyone - and the friendly and knowledgeable bar staff are on hand if you need help deciding. The bar is set in two railway arches and has an alternative vibe, but all are welcome. It really lives up to the "social" part of its name, and it's easy to get chatting to new people. Look out for gigs, open mic nights, retro gaming, DJ nights, beer and cheese tastings, and more - it's a very welcome addition to Chelmsford's music and entertainment scene. I'm so glad to have Radio City as my local - it's a real gem, and has rapidly established itself as our favourite bar.

Friendly staff, great atmosphere and fab music. Plus so much beer, you’ll struggle to decide what to have - or end up trying them all! My husband is a huge fan of craft beer so loves it here as they have 18 different beers on tap and 3 fridges full of cans to choose from at any one time. I’m not a fan of craft beer so often find I’m left drinking water, soft drinks or nothing at all when we’ve been to craft beer places before - not here though thankfully, they have a very tasty locally produced pink jam gin available which suits me perfectly. I love that they don’t mind you getting food from outside and bringing it in too - although you may have to pay the pizza tax and share!

Popped in a couple of times , bar staff are always very friendly helpful and knowledgeable . If you are not sure give it a go , I'm sure you will enjoy.

18 keg lines of constantly-rotating keg beer. Inhouse options from Radio City brewery. This is their "social" tap-room. No tied listings to major breweries or distribution companies. Permanent taps based on style instead of a brewery (for a change). Unique house theme nights such as metal nights and an imminent Oktoberfest night on Saturday 24th September. A refreshing change in an otherwise very traditional local drinking scene. Looking forward to future events. Metal night is a must.

So good it became my go to bar in Chelmsford after 1 visit when it opened. 18 taps in a friendly taproom with local Radio City Beer Works beer and amazing guest beers from Europe and the US. Also serves wine and spirits if you're visiting with non- beer lovers. A must-visit if you love craft beer with friendly, knowledgable service. Pay homage to Danny.

Radio city social has quickly become my favourite bar in Chelmsford, I will happily go with friends or on my own because the people behind the bar a genuinely really nice people. The beer is always changing from week to week giving you a chance to experience new and exciting beers by the 1/3 ,2/3 or a pint , I have found the atmosphere to be excellent and have always seemed to find someone new to have wired and wonderful conversations with. I highly recommend radio city social to everyone I meet and when my family and friends come to visit me in Chelmsford I always make sure we pop in for a pint or ten.
