The Compasses in Chelmsford

Not sure why it doesn't have a star rating for the coffee but... Staff were lovely and the atmosphere was good but the oat latte coffee was probably the worst I've ever had. I don't like strong coffee but this one didn't taste of coffee at all it was so very weak. Real shame as I like it in here.

We stopped for a quick coffee and something to eat. I asked for a lemon muffin. The young man behind the counter said they didn't have any in stock. He looked like he wasn't really interested and was in autopilot. We had our coffee and as we were about to leave I noticed that they were fully stocked with muffins. Not the end of the world, but wasn't the most helpful service that day.

Only a quick visit had a pint of Fosters at reasonable price attentive staff pity about the Australian screens was there for 20 years my best mate John Jones of Springwood NSW died of Ps/Ms/Motor neurons disease known him since 15 then he emirgated there when he was 21 no one could go to the funeral last September I drink to him ever time! What about fixing the screens since the Euros footy!

Not bad. Had to ask reception if they could clean the shower head as pink ginger on the shower head. However they did clean it promptly. Lots of noise heard from next door and alarms thru the walls. Nice location and usually nice meals. Tv does show Gb news so that’s good!

Really disappointed, have been here a number of times, and had good fish and chips, but today was terrible, it was oven chips and cod. Not what it used to be and won’t be going back.
