The Duke in Basildon

Wonderful little pub extremely friendly staff and fantastic bands on the weekends

Was absolutely steaming, but everyone was friendly and beer was reasonably priced. More than anything they put up with me. Will definitely go again.

Spit and sawdust beers not great either run down feel

Lovely bar team and atmosphere especially on a Saturday when live music playing, massive beer garden out back and a nice little one out front..we go atleast twice a month now for team building nights out...and everyone loves it there

Very friendly. Great for watching live sport.

Solid traditional pub, Saturday night and had on a really good live band, prices ok and locals were welcoming too.

Very interesting and atmospheric.

Brilliant place for entertainment at weekends, with live football during the week. Really friendly crowd, atmosphere and bar staff.

It's OK not the best due to floor being sticky and toilets could do with a good scrub or air circulation but bar staff were friendly

2 stars and STILL the best pub in Wickford 🤔

Certainly a drinkers pub they also have an outside seating area with sun and rain shelters. The car park extends round to the side and rear of the pub. On a mid week afternoon there were quite a few clientele both inside and outside when I visited. They are starting to have regular live bands playing there at weekends👍

Great Pub. Friendly atmosphere.

Decent pub, good selection of beers and other drinks. Clean, well kept, nice bar staff.

Great pub for a drink with the boys

Such a great pub . Staff are lovely and the owners make you feel so welcome everyone is so kind . Could not love a pub more x

Nice pub. Friendly atmosphere. Good selection of beers. Fast service.

Ok, reasonable prices, staff pleasant enough. Has made its pool table unplayable in the corona times unfortunately. Was showing the England match on day of visit.

Great location for a chilled evening

Its a pub. It serves cold beer. You can watch the football

Gutted the fish bar was closed early, nice beer garden

Very dated bar staff are good Went to use the toilet and they were people doing lines of cocaine not even attempted to hide it.

Great service nice pint & love the seafood hut. (Prawn wrap was delicious).

Better than a dart in the toe if u catch my flow

Nice that it has a garden for warm sunny days

Great people, great pub very friendly can't wait to go back 👍

Lovely friendly staff with lovely food to.

Typical traditional old English pub!!!

Fantastic time meeting family and friends xxx happy Christmas xxx

Run of the mill pub, nothing special.

The punters have a serious problem you going in there, if ur not regular don't bother. Horrible aggressive people that need to get a life.

Really nice jackets we both enjoyed

Good place to watch sport. Premium lagers on draught, only one ale though 😕

Loving the DJ here this afternoon, great music. Defo going to come next week if he is here. Just needs publising more. Think Ibiza x

Very nice pub wheelchair accessible via a ramp in the rear beer garden fully wheelchair friendly throughout the menu is very good with an amazing range of gluten free dishes we went in on a lunchtime the staff were great and the other diners very friendly will definitely go again very soon

Stopped by to watch the football. Great atmosphere with very friendly locals. A nice secluded beer garden and a sunny patio at the front. Couldn't recommend it enough!

What a. Shame only a few people in this pub tonight. Two d.j.'s playing good dance music and only a few to enjoy it. Friendly atmosphere

Had lunch, really surprised at the quality of the food. I cant reccomend the chicken and bacon baggette enough but the plowmans looked amazing too!

Nice place to have a drink, there is also a pool table and a couple of fruit machines. Pints are £3.70 so not badly prices

Awesome. Caught articuno legendary pokemon!!! :)

Great atmosphere friendly atmosphere

Good pub friendly and medium prices

Very noisy, no respect for their neighbours

Actually the best pub I've been to. Lots of 9/11 extremists that offer to buy you a drink. Perfect for all your jihadists needs. The bartenders helped me make my very own I.E.D. They didn't help me strap LED's to it though...4 out for 5. Underneath the floor, there is a secret cellar that leads to the actual hiding spot for Osama Bin Laden. There seating is rather comfortable and accommodates enough Jihadists to start a revolution. The toilets provide excellent place-holders for building schematics when planning an assault. DEATH TO AMERICA You may have to slip some Potassium Iodide (anti-rad) before going and obtain a small mini-fridge as the beers in the back heat up from all the Plutonium cores sitting amongst them. My brother Salim Indiogogo met me there after we watched all 10 seasons of friends over Facebook Video Chat. He too, enjoyed the assortments of common extremists from ISIS to Al-Qaeda and found it rather refreshing to talk about world domination.

One of thr best pubs in wickford.best survice and friendly staff

Seems to be a nice place to grab a beer.. They have a major issue with funny smell which discourage you to stay longer.
