A friendly traditional local pub. Extensive and regularly changing beer selection and good pub food. They get quite busy at weekends and has outside seating front and back. The Sunday lunch is great and good value.

Great local pub with lots to offer. Small gripe that the handful of drinkers occupying stools at the front bar make it difficult to get bar staff's attention, order, pay & carry drinks for everyone else.

Great pub as it has a function room for hire for special occasions. You can hire it for free if you are having a large number of people (think it's 30 plus but best to check with the owner). Large selection of ales, wine's etc. They also serve nice bar food/snacks. Friendly staff. Good place to pop in for a couple of pints.

Attended a christening function here which my brother and partner paid for only to bet met with fairly rude bar staff. The children who attended with us were extremely well behaved and having fun, making very minimal noise however this was unacceptable and were told by the owner of the pub to be quiet. So he is happy to take your money with knowledge of kids attending but they must be quiet. Absolute idiot! Refused to apologise. It would seem dogs are made to feel more welcome than children. Approach the parents first not children!

Saturday night so was busy, but plenty of staff so service was quick and friendly. Dog friendly and had the football on in the back. Large outdoor area also. A premium lager on tap would personally be great, but if you like ales you're in a great place, so overall hard to knock!

We visited today with our year old granddaughter, Hungarian vizsla dog and son in law and we had the best time. Woody was fussed over and given a dog bowl which when tipped over(very large paws) was not a problem. The staff were so friendly and the food was amazing. We spent three hours amongst the friendliest staff and customers and we will be back. We are very lucky to have this terrific pub on our doorstep. The only place for a magnificent roast. The biggest Yorkshire filled with sausage and stuffing plus all the meat and vegetables including cauliflower cheese on the side. We loved it

Been to the cricketers a few times now always found it a friendly place, but today 4 people behind the bar not one said hello. We saw a sign to say you had to order by text so we did still no interaction with staff. Not sure what we’d of done if we hadn’t had a phone? Drinks came with just a thanks no interaction😢. We had one drink and then left and not one member of staff said goodbye. Let’s hope it goes back to hospitality industry when this is all over.x

Yes it's a nice civilised and quiet place to meet friends during the day. Haven't been there in the evening. They do food but it does seem very over priced for what you get and not good value for money. The homemade pies are the best value at £10 with chips and veg. They have a small selection of real ales which seem popular. Pleasant service.

Recently started serving food again following the Covid-19 lock down. They have introduced a Friday Pizza Night. OMG, brilliant pizza's and i'll even say they are better than most I have tried in the town center, but half the price here. Great atmosphere also considering the current climate. Will definitely make this a regular Friday night attendance, with a couple of draft beers too, obviously :-)

Myself and 2 friends called in here before a t20 game between Essex and Somerset last week. Good selection of beers, many I've not heard of either. I had 2 different ones, very nice. I also had a nachos with cheese and my mates jacket pots. All enjoyed our time here and the staff were very nice and helpful too. We went here because after all we like cricket and this is called the cricketers. Would go there again when next in Chelmsford. Def worth a visit.
