Strange that a pub targeting students is so expensive!! The most expensive pub I encountered on my Chelmsford pub crawl. Incredibly friendly staff but I overheard one of them saying something about dynamic pricing... If that's what the pub is doing to their patrons I shan't be visiting again.

Went for a bottomless brunch, and then stayed for football. Stevie was a little super star, she also had a table of 13, and despite only being a table of 5 she was super attentive, our food arrived promptly and we managed to make it all the way through the brunch drinks menu during our time slot. Good atmosphere, friendly staff, and definitely value for money. Would recommend

We came to this pub last night after having a meal. We have always enjoyed the music and atmosphere there however last night we found the staff to be very rude. Normally when ordering drinks we are asked to pay after drinks are served however last night we were asked to pay straight away even before the drinks were made. The customers around us were not treated this way. After asking politely why we were being asked to pay before we had received the drinks we were told that we would not be served. We left shortly afterwards. We have been coming to this pub for years but clearly things have changed. We are not trouble makers and just wanted to have a good time. We are very disappointed with the way we were treated.

Came in Friday may 31st ordered a lager and a cider and 2 regular diet cokes which came to £20.95....I felt a mistake had been made but on looking it was correct but quite how you justify £3.70 for 1 regular coke is just scandalous. Staff were friendly and the pub on the whole looks nice. Looked at the menu but they were very sticky and stunk of stale booze which put me off.

Decent pub, nice staff, good beer, however, the karaoke staff are shocking, hers my honest review about them karaoke people…… Nikki the host is the rudest person I’ve ever met, we went to sit with our friends (on there table) only to be shouted at aggressively that we were not allowed to sit there and this was “her” area, when I replied, there are no signs so we came to sit here, she started swearing repeatedly at me and my partner for making this mistake, this followed by the ‘bloke’ on the decks then making a comment against us making us feel embarrassed, and implementing that she was right, we have many witnesses against this and this company should be shut down.

I had booked the 'Mothers Day Abba Brunch' for my mum and sister on Mothers day Sunday. When we arrived, there was no music and loud football playing. No one got in touch with me to let me know that the 'Abba Brunch' was cancelled. My mum travelled for an hour to get to Chelmsford and we were extremely disappointed. The gentleman who gave me my deposit back was very nice about it, but it was a shame that our Mothering Sunday plans were scuppered by this oversight.

Got kicked out of here for a drink falling that wasn’t related to our table, went to order a drink at the bar to which they started ‘we aren’t in a comfortable position to serve you’ so I decided to leave. The company was a karaoke night who couldn’t run a barn dance in a barn and the staff couldn’t run a drink up in a brewery. Constantly assuming the wrong person of ‘dropping a drink’ and when asking for evidence they couldn’t provide evidence and kept taking the poor events word for granted. £5.60 for a bottle of Budweiser is heavily overpriced too. Do not visit!

This place gets worse and worse every time I go in here - used to be lovely pub with good music but not any more! I booked a table for 8 people for drinks and the table we were given could barely fit 5 people comfortably. Food is always disappointing - pizza came stone cold and chicken wings had a funny flavour and very dry. Drinks are ridiculously priced - £14 for a pre made cocktail! I do understand its not the staff that set the pricing but it's still a joke! Staff are always miserable and very unhelpful!

Had a permanent sign on a column (See Photo) very clearly stating 2 for one cocktails at all times when the same. When ordering 2 of the same was told this is not the case on separate occasions by different members of staff. It either is or it isn't? Smacks of 'Lets see what we can get away with' to me. I don't like profiteering, It's already the most expensive pub I been in this year. 'Fleece' is definitely the operative word here.
