The Poplar Kitten in Harlow

Random visit. I popped in to waste a bit of time before picking my daughter up from around the corner at my mums. I was greeted with a friendly smile from the person behind the bar. The Fosters was lovely and at a good price of £3.50. Bumped into some old aquintences and friends and it was nice to have a chat with them. A very pleasant atmosphere, and the new decor looked good aswell. It was also nice to meet the Landlady in person, as although we have spoken on the phone, oddly enough had never met personally in person. Thank you Richard

A fantastic atmosphere live band were brilliant (scam 69 ) all of the staff were bang on , thank you Paula and Dave xxx

Great time as always in the poplar kitten harlow. Great atmosphere Great landlord and landlady can't wait till Saturday when I go in again for Great music aswell.

Lovely staff. Food was lovely. Good value for money. No complaints here.

Great friendly pub. Good music/bans at weekend. Get to know regulars quickly and become part of the pub family.

Fabulous pub with a great atmosphere . Landlord and landlady paula and Dave very welcoming .

Best pub in Harlow, for Entertainment, bands, pool, seasonal events, and general fun/banter, best landlords and staff,

Just got back from another fab time at the Kitten. This is my go to place. Bar staff are friendly and approachable and Paula and Dave always give me a warm welcome I come here with friends but also come here on my own as inside a friendly face is always seen I would 100 percent recommend this place to anyone. It’s home from home for me. To everyone at the KItten thank you so much. always a safe environment and always a good laugh x

On the day of the visit, there was a special event happening. There were two bands on. The event was to mark the 30th anniversary of Quadraphenia, with one band playing all the music that the Mods would be listening to at the time, the other band playing more contemporary rock music. The event was quite well attended. The pub has music at the weekend. The staff and hosts are very welcoming. A good selection of beer.

Nice roomy local with plenty of table & chairs spaced out for safety. Nice selection of tapped drinks, Rev. James(always 1 real ale that changes) Strongbow original, cocktails, wine, as you would expect. Good price for a pint of ale & large Sav. Blanc....£8.90!! (13/06/24). Outside picnic style seating area & 2 sit down smoking constructions undercover. Pool table & various gambling machines. All round a nice place to go out to. The management couple are very friendly & chatty which is another bonus.

It's such a lovely place. Great atmosphere and friendly. Paula and Dave, who run it, are such a good laugh.

Lovely pub. Paula and Dave and all the staff are very friendly and welcoming. Lovely community atmosphere

Great local pub, friendly staff and customers 😊

Beer is responsible, and the place is bright and clean. The landlord makes a real effort. When was the last time you went to a pub that has free bar food? It's not Michelin ☆ but it's not bad either. Well done. ☆☆☆☆☆

Pubs good. Obviously some days better than others. Depending on company your with and what night it is as there is bands on in the month. Most people are friendly. Guvnor is nice fella.

Great classic pub. Great atmosphere, splendid staff & we saw a great covers band play, Scam69... ideal night out!

Great friendly pub always made welcome

Rude staff. No acknowledgment when waiting for 5 minutes staff disappeared and then reappeared to serve someone who had stood at the bar for 10 seconds. Left for a better pub. I wouldn’t recommend it.

Always a happy smile and service

Great place to enjoy live music and the drinks prices are fantastic 🍺👍

Good local pub. Great to be back. Meat raffle most Sunday afternoons. Nice crowd too. For the locals not great for a cocktail of an evening lol

Great community pub, with friendly staff and customers

Boss drinks while serving. People who work there very unprofessional. Rude.and push you.when you drink more. Would not go back.its like a zoo for animal.they need to be tamed .

Nice food and drink plus nice company good atmosphere

Great place great atmosphere thanks 2 the new management

It's ok. Badly in need of a facelift inside. Edit: It's had a facelift and remains ok.

Lovely friendly pub. Chilled atmosphere. 😊🍻

Aok prices but Lots of trouble with some of the people sitting outside & some ex girlfriend in the carpark. Crying & screaming (not very nice things)

Working man's pub. Decent draft lagers and ales. Reasonably priced. Friendly bar staff. Pubs name is taken from a moth! Harlow new town pubs are named after moths and butterflies.

New make over is much better with a good selection of drinks behind the bar and very reasonable. Unfortunately the clientele is the same.... rough! Not a family pub.

Nice pub busy on the weekends looking forward to it opening after lockdown.

Friendly atmosphere, great prices

Very nice inside just been refurbished very clean and friendly pub nice bear big screen tv and games area

Great pub for watching sport got big screens everywhere! Looks the must nuts since the refurb

Nice open space, pool table and dart board.

place looks the nuts after the refurb great prices great music love it. monty

Massive fight broke out down there. Wasn't too enjoyable - notice the bloke on the floor getting stamped on.

It was ok it's was popular didn't see any kittens though drink is ok

got kicked out for going to the toilet at 8:54 pm rude language from staff and rowdy old men disgusting

The bar staff serve all their friends first and always running short of glasses as no one collecting the empties.

Top place just had a refurb great for sports a****

Fun place to hang out with locals

Good atmosphere and busy, wide range of drinks served and plenty of bar games

There are a lot of people that are nice

Great bar staff, great entertainment!

It's ok feel uncomfortable their

Quite a nice place but wouldn't be one in would visit often

Drink is cheaper than other pubs. Atmosphere is nice.

Definitely nice and warm, lots of people enjoying a good drink and good atmosphere. Previous visits with old publicans was absolutely freezing. Couldn't wait to leave.

Excellent for sport food and entertainment

near by parking close to Indian restaurant

Great atmosphere, proper pub. Very well run.

Great pub, friendly staff, owner is lovely

I love it when they have karaoke at the popular Kitten It's always a good time

Nice for a couple of pints after work.

A good place to watch sports, but it's cash only. There is an ATM round the corner just in case though. The beer selection is average with the usual suspects. The decor is in need of some work though.

Nice pub friendly staff good choice of beer sports on TV and gd pool table

Go e down hill so much every time I go maybe 10 people in the pub sitting at bar or in smoking area apart from that still love the pub but need to get people to go pubs more maybe a cheap drinks night

Great place. Full of regulars but not funny towards new people. Friendly staff.
