What a transformation! This place is so cool, great chilled out atmosphere with a great beer selection. I’ll be back.

What a lovely little bar everyone was friendly. Staff was welcoming and make you feel at home. Never had to wait to be served. Brilliant atmosphere. Severed lots of different beers and ales. All of them tasted amazing. With definitely be returning to this hidden gem in Wickford.

Lovely and relaxing best place for a drink in Wickford

Ordered a gift pack for a local friend and Jamie from the brewery/bar went above and beyond to make it a special delivery. If this is the service offered in the bar then don’t hesitate to visit. I’ll be there as soon as I can !

One of the friendliest pubs I've ever been to in my life, nice decor great atmosphere nice selection of beers I will be back

Always a nice visit on the way home from work...!

Nice people that run it well done 👏

A lovely little 'Pub', I love the ciders and ales they serve here and the staff are friendly

Lovely staff Lovely place z

Great for a few beers before popping across the road to the Marco Polo for a curry.

Great little pub situated in Wickford. Bar staff are so friendly drinks are reasonably priced. And make their own ales

Gr8 place, friendly staff and attentive

Went in there last night (early Saturday evening). The young lady behind the bar was nice and the manager was helpful with advice on the German beer I had. Would definitately revisit.

Very brief trip. Good selection and very reasonable.

We love this place. Very welcoming and friendly. Highly Highly recommend a visit for a different experience to that of your usual

Went past this on xmas eve while back in town visiting the parents and thought I was hallucinating. Made way back there with friend and was pleasantly surprised by the service, the prices and the quality of the in-house beers. Bowlers hat and coachman were personal favourites. A sorely needed venue for Wickford.

Amazing tap room! We love it here and have visited many times, great ales and selection of gins. Staff are really friendly, would highly recommend 😊

Plenty of real ales , nice friendly place to have a drink

Great bar staff great atmosphere Will come back for sure

Popped in for a quick pint with.my son barman was very helpful and offered us tasters before we ordered our drinks

Great micro brewery with a good range of beers and ales, plus branded bottles and spirits etc. Nice atmosphere and worth a visit! Decent pricing too!

One of the friendliest bars I've ever been in the selection can be slightly ltd if you are used to a very wide range of ales and ciders, but what is on offer is of good quality and more importantly at the right temperature check the opening hours before you go

Absolute gem in the middle of terrible pubs...great ales..cider and so reasonably priced.....the only place in wickford that's clean fresh and have an idea of what they are selling 5/5 and the staff are lovely....beautiful outside seating....so refreshing....100% local support from me 💪🍻

A good range of beers and cider friendly staff still a bit new and very clean there was a lot of people there when I went but it was the first few days of opening

Homely, good beers great staff...

Good little place for starter drinks before heading out to another venue quiet but friendly staff and customers

Great little brewery with good choice of house brews. Friendly, cosy atmosphere. Will be visiting again and again.

My first visit, very pleasant experience.

Good ales, staff were very friendly, very nice place to relax

Wickford needs this little gem, perfect for predinner drinks before dining at local restaurants or for a drink on the commute homewards. Friendly staff

Nice little bar, not too far from the station.

Friendly service, but beers a bit vinegary for my taste.

Always a pleasure. Fantastic bar, excellent beer.

Lovely family owner bar with a good selection of locally brewed ales. Ian's great and very helpful. Grabbed a few bottles of the Blonde Maid to take back for sum friends. Bar is drink/ dine in as of the 18th of May if you're thinking of visiting.

Excellent customer service and very friendly staff

Really friendly bunch who run it here and brilliant selection of beer!

Love this place. Great local ales and good company here. If you are in the area then you must pop in for a quick one at least

Nice pint, friendly staff and covid secure

Posh boys tap room is a small very friendly bar, there’s a nice atmosphere decent selection of beers,some of which are made by the owners.Nice to find a decent friendly pub in Wickford.I wish them every success in the future it’s just what Wickford needs. Enjoy

Lovely bar and the perfect addition to wickford. Especially lovely on a sunny day sat outside with their large selection of beers and gins.

Good beers, nice atmosphere, could do with a wider selection of ales though

Really nice atmosphere and polite bar staff.

Lovely friendly bar with a great selection of their own brewed real ales, guest ales, and foreign beers.

Small little pub to have a drink in. Friendly staff, great atmosphere. If you are in the area you should definitely go in for a beer or 3.

Great very friendly micro brewery, nice atmosphere and a fantastic meeting place for a pre gin and tonic or a pint. Great in the summer when you can sit outside. Good selection of music played at a good level. Good tasty ales and my fave bottles of lager.

Best bar in Wickford! Hope their business does well cos I’d love to see them in a bigger, nicer venue.

Nice and local, and makes a welcome change to the big pubs. Great selection of drinks, and nice staff.

Brilliant night. Great drinks and atmosphere

Great selection of local ales and cider. Lovely environment and friendly staff. Would recommend.

Warm and friendly atmosphere with great beer

Very good beer and staff lovely

First visit to this new taproom in Wickford. Nicely presented and very friendly, knowledgeable staff. A good selection of their own brew beers plus guest ales and ciders. I noticed a small selection of spirits available plus some bottles of well known lagers in the cold fridge. Decent place to visit for a beer and a chat.

At last a decent pub to have a drink at in Wickford. Friendly staff, goid beer and decent atmosphere. Support this local business!!

Excellent service, great place to meet with friends and have nice beer time.

Very friendly family-run local micro brewery serving their own beers plus ciders and beers from other 'local' breweries. They also serve wine and some spirits including a selection of gins which are very reasonably priced. The bar is nicely decorated and has some seating outdoors.

First time. Very good welcome. Great beer. I will return.

Great friendly bar , great beer.

Great beers, friendly staff, definitely recommend posh boys brewery.

I don't want everyone discovering Posh Boys Taproom because we might never get a seat but we wish them every success. Great range of locally-brewed beers and ciders, as well as other alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks, and important for me are their German beers that are sometimes hard to find. The location isn't great as I suspect Lower Southend Road can be busy during a weekday and parking difficult but it is a quiet oasis on a Sunday and probably evenings too. Maybe some pies etc. to add to a limited range of nibbles would be great. Staff always seem friendly and were even very polite once to someone who thought 'tap room' meant there was a dance studio at the back of the bar!!!

Excellent. Several of their own beers on and some guests.

Lovely people, great service and if you are a fan you can get a free pint. I love this place it should be supported

Great locally brewed options, easy atmosphere.

Friendly, knowledgeable staff, great atmosphere, good value for money. The location is perfect for locals and plenty of parking.

Decent Ales,reasonable prices,clean and pleasant atmosphere.Very friendly couple running the bar.Looking forward to returning.

If you live in Wickford or are just visiting (and you want a fantastic pint of ale) then you have to go to the Posh Boys taproom. It is only a 5minute walk from Wickford Station &buses from Basildon, Southend, Chelmsford, South Woodham & (even) Stansted Airport stop within 1 minutes walk. Admittedly there is not a lot of seating (there are a couple of tables outside &a few tables inside) but I have always been able to get a seat on each occasion I have visited. You come here for the friendly service from all of the staff & for the excellent range of beers they have on tap (in the barrell) There is usually a choice of around 6ales on tap (including 3brewed on the premises &3guest ales from local breweries) but they have a decent selection of other drinks available too (both alcoholic & non-alcoholic). All prices are very reasonable for Essex. Although they don't serve food (well they do crisps, nuts etc..) the very good Marco Polo Indian Restaurant is opposite. If you like your beer, you just have to try the "Posh Boys"!

Lovely friendly place. Drinks presented just how a gin should be - in a proper gin glass, with ice and fruit. Would definitely recommend.

Good choice of beer, friendly staff.

Nice beer friendly staff and atmosphere

Nice local bar! Great beers, could use some air-conditioning. Good to have somewhere local and friendly to drink real ales.

I love this place It is exactly what we needed in Wickford The staff are friendly and very courteous . I only drink spirits but it seems to have a wide range of ales Excellent love it Will definelty be my local x

Nic drink in this lovely place fantastic staff

Modern friendly bar with a selection of locally crafted Ales and other drìnks if that is what you prefer

A fun place for a drink with friends. Hopefully they'll be taking cards soon

Visited on the 13th of June, and wish I had not bothered. A bar should be first and foremost about beer quality. Unfortunately their own Blonde Maiden? 4% was totally lacking in both flavour and condition. A complaint that members of CAMRA at our meetings have mentioned on many occasions. The Kings (Mighty Oak) was being mis-sold as it made no mention of the brewery. It was vinegary, and again without much condition, though the very helpful bar staff said it had only been on sale for four days. It is my opinion that they should not have (eight) different beers on sale at the same time. even though the bar uses pins (36 pints) The Mighty Oak Tap Room runs with 4 or 5, and the Crouch Vale Tap Room 19 with 6. The bar itself is attractive, and could/should be a success is draught ale starved Wickford.

Cracking local place for a drink. Friendly staff serving their brews but also other drinks which means non beer drinkers can enjoy as well.

Been there a few times now, always friendly a pleasure to relax in a good atmosphere 👍

Popped in for a drink and if I had eaten would have stayed all night. Lovely beer served with a smile. Friendly atmosphere and comfortable surroundings. Thank you

We are currently sitting outside in the sun. A lovely pint of locally brewed Blind Butler and watching the world go by. Every town needs locally run businesses and Wickford has been crying out for this sort of place. The bar has been nicely fitted out and has a good selection of locally brewed beers and some staple bottled favourites. If you haven’t tried it yet get along and you will be sure to get a warm and friendly welcome.

Nice clean little place with friendly staff.

Gr8 place & friendly ..visited as a family & was welcomed ..plenty of drink choices to suit all tastes..would definitely recommend a visit 👍

Great bar good range of beers wines and drinks. Lively and lovely people running the bar

Amazing effort to take this idea and go live. I’ve popped in 3-4 time now and will be returning the staff are warm and welcoming. The beer is great and you can see the devotion that goes in. There isn’t much I would change maybe...

Offering quality bottled beers and ales from the cask in a delightful setting, this new micro pub is a must for any lover of real ale. Friendly and charming staff make it a great micro pub experience.

All the best to the staff. Great beer!!

Lovely people and a nice drop of ale. Would highly recommend a visit . Nice selection of drinks and nice relaxed atmosphere.

Visited the new brewery / taproom in Wickford. Not like anything else in the area. Great concept and just what Wickford needs. Great selection of locally brewed real ales served by spot on friendly and courteous staff. Good to see locals making a go of...

Original beer on tap and available to buy bottled to take away with you for very reasonable prices. Amazing, friendly atmosphere with lovely staff! I've been to the taproom once when passing through Wickford, I would recommend The Coachman if you're an Ale lover like...

Fantastic atmosphere and friendly staff that made us feel welcome. Been to the Brewery a few times since it opened and found a great drink selection and reasonable prices. Great addition to Wickford!
