The Flyer in Chelmsford

Another wonderful breakfast with Santa, so personally done, with decorations to decorate, biscuits to decorate, colouring in, Santa and gift, plus a yummy breakfast. We come every year because my daughter loves it and her friends book too and extremely reasonably priced.

Came in for a few drinks with family. Lovely little pub, staff were welcoming. Will definitely be back.

Great pub, love to go at every week with family.

Had a meal with my daughter last night and enjoyed it so much I came back with my son this evening. (Rarely eat out but my husband was away lol). Forgot how friendly the staff were.

I’ve been coming to this pub for over 2 years now and the service is usually good and has a great atmosphere. However on this occasion, I was a bit disappointed because there was a confusion with my order when I was asked by the lady if I wanted to buy one get one free with my cheese burger meal, I came alone this evening so I thought she meant if I wanted an extra burger in my burger as it was supposed to be bogof night on Thursday. When my order came, there were two burger meals and that’s when I got a bit confused. I’m not trying to blame anyone as I appreciate all the staff’s hard work and commitment there, I just thought I would share my experience to ensure staff could learn from any mistakes taken place and I would like to apologise for my part in the confusion but I would appreciate if the staff could explain things clearly so I understand as I don’t function enough sometimes and I have mild autism just so you know. Many thanks.

The counter lady taking our food order and the chef were fabulous, ensuring my husbands food allergies were catered for. Such a shame a female customer, banging her glass on the counter, took humbridge for having to wait 2-3 minutes before walking off, tutting. When she returned I felt happy until she " talked down and at the staff member, who was apologising and givi ng her an explanation for the delay. The grumpy female was having none if it. Sadly, some people cannot be kind...just very rude and me..an!!

What lovely persons serving here, Joanna and Tia. Very efficient and good quick service. A nice atmosphere. An enjoyable visit.

Staff is very friendly, budget friendly.

Stopped off bere for lunch and had the steak and ale pie and drink Can't complain food was good but the service was even better. Charmaine and Jo was lovely and made me feel welcome.

We had a lovely meal out with friends. Great value, went for 2for1 meal deal, and got tempted y the varied menu with something for everyone. Can't wait until next time!!

Delicious big bbq platter. Slow cooked meat was fantastic. All staff very friendly and couldn’t do enough for us. Thank you!

Great evening had all round. Food was good but made better by how accommodating the staff were

Cold beer, hot food and good service.

It was unbelievable busy, was told at time of ordering, it will be at least an hour before food would be ready. I would like to give a big shout out to Trish & Jo, who worked their socks off to make sure our food arrived before expected & freshly cooked. It was great value & reasonable priced drinks

Can wait a little while for a drink sometimes but excellant still

Amazing food,Amazing service and lovely polite staff,Very enjoyable meal, will be returning again, thankyou

Always great food, cracking Sunday Lunch, look for Trish, she provided great customer service, and looks after the customers

Great service, staff and food, trish was very helpful, and allan made some banging grub. Defo comimg back. Big up the flyer!!!

Ordered and got seated straight away staff were lovely, after roughly 45 minutes of waiting we finally get our food I got the chick N mix the chicken skewer was good the chips were mix and match with how well they were cooked the nuggets were super dry and they only came with 8 when it’s meant to be 10 but then after saying they would sort it it took them another half hour to bring out a few nuggets. only going there for drinks again never go for food

Great place, fantastic staff so friendly and helpful and just honest people, we was there for my little girls birthday meal , the guys let us use our cake , and even played happy Birthday over the jukebox fantastic 😀 food was good fantastic prices 5 🌟 recommended, we will definitely be back

A really great place and a really warm welcome. Staff are really friendly and incredibly efficient and helpful. 10 of us went as a family for Sunday lunch after an event and we couldn’t have chosen a better place to finish our day off. The food was great and came out hot and fast, we all had different meals and they were all perfect, no complaints at all. We sat outside with our dogs and Cerise had our tables all ready which was lovely, we sat straight down. Spent a good few hours eating and drinking and cannot fault any part of it and will definitely be back again very soon. Very professional and accommodating staff are a credit to the pub and restaurant. Would definitely recommend

Food came quick, was hot and both food and drinks are very reasonably priced. The sever called Jo was helpful and friendly! Would highly recommend! Can't wait to come back!

This pub is a friendly welcoming local pub with hearty pub classic food. Really enjoyed the food here and both the food and drinks are a reasonable price. The staff and service are excellent. Would definitely recommend eating here.

Lovely food, quiet restaurant, kind and helpful staff. I’ll definitely be back!

Great place. Great reasonably priced food. Good polite staff.

Local pub worth a pit stop. They have very competitive prices on their beers so good for a cheap beer. Also good deals on food too. Beer garden is pleasant on a warm day. Next door to Morissons supermarket so handy to fall into

ALLERGY SUFFERER .. Very thorough with checking food items for allergies .. replaced allergen items with different things .. very accomodating .. good food here 5⭐️

Food is excellent value for money always tasty with healthy portions. Recommend the burgers, steak and steak wrap 😋 Staff are always welcoming and friendly. Can get very busy so booking a table is advised!

Really nice! Food was very nice. Workers are lovely.

My friend and I wanted scampi and chips and a hunters chicken. Scampi was unavailable so was the fish so we both had hunters chicken. Both very hungry so as soon as the food arrived we started to eat but as soon as we had placed the first bite into our mouths we were asked if everything was okay, we said yes because it really wasn't long enough for anything to register. We did eat all of our meals but the sizzle plates that the food was served on were stone cold and the food wasn't much warmer plus the chicken breast was very tough to cut and it was nothing like any hunters chicken that we have ever had. The warmest part of the meal was the chips and they went cold fast. Also not a very good choice of no alcohol beer or J20 . The J2O choice was apple and mango or orange and passionfruit. We wanted mango and passionfruit it was on the menu but not available for purchase. The staff member

Great staff. The steak is amazing and they have a pool table and dart board. What more could you want for a boozer

Lovely server who was friendly and helpful. The food was great and the guy that cooked it came out to ask if it was OK. Excellent service.

Clean ,Friendly service ,good range of beers

Very friendly place staff very polite and service very good,have always had good service. Good food.

Soon as you walk in your welcomed by staff and everyone you no ...Good pub

Lovely little pub. Friendly staff. Good pool table

Breakfast with Santa 🧑‍🎄 wow what a special event, the staff went above and beyond to put this on, with special visitors: Santa and the Grinch. On arrival we were greeted to our table, which had goodie bags for the children, Christmas crackers and was beautifully laid out. We had a lovely cooked breakfast and interactions with the characters. There was a table set up with biscuit decorating, drawing and colouring- which the kids loved! What a lovely special touch. The kids had an amazing time, as did us! Would really recommend and will certainly come back with the family for food, aswell as attend another event. Well run, organised and very friendly atmosphere! Thank you! 🤩

Food was good value for money, especially flatbread

Really great pub with nice helpful staff, never any problems in there and everyone friendly. Took daughter there yesterday for the santa breakfast and she loved it. Thanks again.

Really nice friendly local pub. Staff always pleasant and helpful. Eat there regularly with daughter and she loves the place. Excellent value for money. Went there on the 22nd for the santa breaking for the kids and they all loved it.

Another brilliant morning at The Flyer breakfast with Santa and the Grinch. Even more craft activities for the kids than last year, we had a fantastic time and the kids were entertained plenty. Selection boxes and a goodie bag were provided for the kids as well as 'make your own bauble' and 'biscuit decorating'. The food is cheap and the menu for breakfast with Santa had plenty enough options. Highly recommend booking here if you haven't already.

Today we went along to the breakfast with Santa and the grinch, the children had the most wonderful time! They enjoyed the activities, breakfast was lovely and all staff were really friendly. Loved that the manager was in the Christmas spirit with his grinch jumper...

Thank you to everyone at the flyer for a lovely morning all the kids had a brilliant time having breakfast with Santa!! So lovely see all there happy faces!! We have been regulars for years there’s always a great atmosphere with lovely food and even lovelier friendly staff

Booked our ladies Christmas meal here for the first time this year. We all really enjoyed it, the food was lovely, staff were very friendly and efficient, and a there was a lovely atmosphere too!

Had a great time Staff were exceptional in the way they treated us . The food was really good ,, Will definitely visit again

The best ever experience and and extraordinary pub nearby and good hangout place really enjoyed many days and nights here good place to chill out

Good friendly staff and nice to sit down and have a nice time. Food is good.

Great food, well priced and came out faster than expected on a busy sunday with the football on.. great friendly staff, good atmosphere

I eat in The Flyer fairly often both on my own and with friends and family and I have yet to have a bad meal. The staff are friendly and the food while not Michelin star level is well presented and tasty, you get what...

Food was absolutely disgusting. Over cooked/burnt tasted funny. We had the sharing boneless chicken wings to start. These came out burnt to a crisp. These got returned and a fresh set was cooked. They came out with the main. They were tasteless apart from the...

Cannot fault this amazing bar not only for the food tnere boneless wings are amazing 🤩 but Jamie an his staff are well mannered very helpful and polite the drinks are well poured always plenty of ice an never any problems wen visiting this place...

Food was great, tasted lovely and presented well (unlike some other chains where by the food is just slapped on the plate). The staff were very attentive and helped with anything we requested. I would definitely return here again.

Nice locals and great staff. Not my local pub but defo my first choice of pub to go to

Rude staff I wouldn’t drink in there any more I been there a couple time never again

The fryer wasn't working so my usual chosen meals of Scampi or Fish... neither available. Food that we did have was good though. Unless it had only just broken which would have been very unfortunate I would of thought they could have sourced a fryer before the evening shift as it was a Friday night which is typically fish n chip night.

i had fish and chips . the chips were really nice but the fish was over cooked and dry . when the waiter came to collect plates he asked how our meal was i explained how bad the fish was . he’s response was i’m...

A good variety of pub grub, menu's for all ages, special offers available, nice size cozy pub, car park a little small, friendly staff, selection of draught soft drink very limited

Had a lovely meal this afternoon in the garden. The food and the service was outstanding. Bar staff very helpful, nothing was too much trouble. Will definitely be going back. Thank you.

Welcoming and good for food and drink with good prices.

Best pub in Chelmsford. When I ended up blacking out from drinking too much whisky, I fell out my wheelchair outside the front on the pub and started crawling around like a baby who munched up some mdma and a very nice bartender helped me get back in my chair. It's one of the most regrettable hangovers ever.

Someone give Adam a pay rise , everytime I go to the Flyer he's there working 110%. Always lovely service with Adam.

Lovely food ..friendly staff worth a vist ..

Great value good food helpful staff had the best burgers .manager was great toilets really clean . A good value lunch nice clean airy envioroment worth a visit

Great burgers we had a groupon very helpful manager lovely bloke

I think they may have been short staffed on the day me and my friend went for a lunchtime deal. 2 mains for £10.80, just one guy doing everything! Don't think he was doing the cooking though. I had scampi, chips and peas( which were dried up) my friend had a lasagne which was not that exciting and the garlic bread that came with it was so hard she couldn't bite it. Shan't be rushing back in a hurry I'm afraid 😩

Great service and a lovely meal x

Very nice friendly pub with good food

Had a very nice meal, and staff friendly

Hugely helpful and welcoming at our meeting today. Good coffee as well. Accommodating to an unusual request too.

A lovely local community pub restaurant. It has a good value for money menu serving good quality food. Staff are friendly and attentive

Had a great time there with the family good food showing football on the tv

Great pub a bite and a drink I am a regular so it gets my vote.

Lovely food lovely staff lovely price

Food was good, price was great. Can't complain about service or efficiency so 5* from me

Awful food And service and a horrible atmosphere

Had a fantastic family meal Sunday 26th feb for my sons 18th birthday 😊food was great and staff were so welcoming and friendly, was a lovely day and will definitely be back ... thank you Jamie and cerise and all the team !!

It's been 6 years since I last went into the pub, last night we popped in and had a great mix grill, friendly atmosphere and fantastic staff we are definitely coming back

Thank you for a great service tonight Tom was very hands on fab 5🌟 Great food too 👍

Nice local pub. Monday to Thursday special offer £10-ish for two selective main courses.

AMAZING! Great food and atmosphere. Tables are sticky though.

Went with colleagues for our Christmas meal. The atmosphere and food was really lovely as well as the service. Thanks again will definitely book for next year.

We went here for our staff Christmas party with vouchers we had as a gift and they couldn’t have been more accommodating. We were a large party with various changes before the event without any problems. Such great value for money that we had money left on the vouchers to spend on a few bottles of Prosecco. Great night to round off the school term. We’ll be back!

Myself and 28 others visited the week before Christmas, we'd pre booked and pre ordered our food. Everything came out hot and fresh and one after the other. The staff were very good and patient. Well done the flyer and your team 😊

We had a couple of drinks and some lunch and it was way better than I expected for a very reasonably priced pub. Millionaires burger and the Turf, Surf, and Cluck were both really good. It's been consistent the last few times we've been here...

Place has gone downhill since new companies took over

Had a lovely family lunch, food was good and great value. Servers were very friendly and helpful. Children’s food options were fab and affordable for my fussy son! Will defo be back.

All the staff are very welcoming and friendly perfect place for a decent beer at a decent price will defo be back

A large family group of us us with several children had a lunch, get together at The Flyer. The service was excellent. All the meals were perfect and the children were well catered for. It was relaxed and fun and nothing was too much trouble...

I visted the pub on the 7th December to have a couple of pints with a friend. Perfect. Stella is £4.60 a pint so an enjoyable 45 minutes were had. I visited again yesterday, again an enjoyable visit. This morning I have received through the...

Definitely a great pub to visit to either have a meal with friends or just a few drinks. The staff a very polite, Chanice and Abby are always kind and try their hardest to serve you in a timely manner even on the busiest nights....

Had a sirloin which was cooked to perfection, rare and tender. Entertainment was great and pub lively and very busy. Great service from Abbi and Jo. Really good night had by all.
