Had a bottomless brunch today, we had the lovely Jade serving us. One of the best bottomless brunch experience, good service, good atmosphere not having to wait around for ages for drinks. Would recommend over others. Will be returning. Jade was amazing, defiantly think staff here are amazing.

Jonhy was amazing, provided good service. Really recommend

Lovely place, Jonny was really helpful and kind

We were in Colchester for a boutique Music Festival nearby. called in Friday night for some dinner. Very quiet, it was early, but the atmosphere was good, the staff friendly and helpful and the food excellent. Great value too and served promptly. The staff were preparing for their busy Friday night so we left them to it.

Really weak DJ, if you want Spotify top20 you're in look because that's all he knows

I absolutely loved this place. The atmosphere was amazing and so was the food. We had burgers and chicken wings both of which were fairly priced for the amount recieved. Jonhy was our server and he was very good- never let our drinks run out and always checking up if everything was fine. Overall a 10/10 experience.

Awesome atmosphere and great service feom Jonhy.

Had a brilliant time at walkabout tonight as we enjoyed our delicious meals watching the Euros semi final. The burger I chose was fantastic and everyone else loved what they had ordered too. Thanks especially to Johnny who did an amazing job serving us today, making for an all round comfortable and very enjoyable experience.

Great service, Jonhy offered brilliant hospitality services. Polite, and very efficient.

I have been in the Walkabout bar in Colchester a few times recently. I was so impressed with the level of customer service I recieved that I had to give a review. I suffer from anxiety & other mental health issues to the point where I struggle when out in public. I went into Walkabout to have food as I was hungry but was anxious being in a pub/for the first time in a long time. The staff were so accomodating to my needs & kept me calm while I waited for food & talked to them. Although all the staff were great, I have to say that Ethan excelled in his customer service & went above & beyond in helping me with seating, calming me & showing me all options available for my meal. I have never received the customer service level I had in the Colchester Walkabout (especiallly from Ethan) anywhere else & it meant so much to me. Thank you for reading and I hope the staff at Walkabout, especially Ethan is acknowledged & appraised.

Great drinks and lots of big screens for sport

The staff at the Colchester Walkabout always has excellent service with a smile on their faces. The events planned are brilliant and always a good laugh. Special thanks to Johny the manager who always ensures we have a great time

We booked a cocktail masterclass for a birthday celebration and we are all super impressed with the service. Johny hosted our class and he was super fun and made the whole experience amazing and made sure we were all laughing and having fun. I definitely recommend him when booking your class. We will definitely book this again in the future.

Jonny looked after my group for my birthday we had a fab night!

Been here a bunch of times, the last time for my friend’s birthday, amazing atmosphere every time. Johny always provides top notch service every time!

had lovely cocktails served by the best bartender Megan, super friendly and super nice, will definitely be going back!!

Best walkabout I’ve been to! Great staff, lots of screens for sport and a night out!

Great place, fab atmosphere and even got our drinks brought to the table by Christie.

Came in for food yesterday and I loved the atmosphere and the chicken goujons were delicious. Special thanks to Jayde for making it a great experience. Lovely girl.

Great atmosphere and vibes, lovely service from Jayde, gave me a warm welcome as soon as I walked in. She even put the football on for me and my gang. We will definitely be back

Came in the other day and had a great time. Megan was so lovely and great service.

Great place, great atmosphere, came in for the football and had a lovely time. Megan was amazing too.

Came here on a night out got served by Olivia she was kind and helpful, thanks!

Walkabout in Colchester offers cheap drinks and a lively atmosphere, perfect for crowds. However, table cleanliness could be improved for a better experience.

Great atmosphere for premier league football match. Seating in tiered benches opposite the big screen adds to the genuine enthusiasm from fans. Nicely decorated and very relaxed. We didn't eat but what passed us by looked very appetising! Prices similar to other bars in the town centre and a great range of alcohol to choose from. The reason it got a liw overall rating was the state of the women's toilets. Disgusting. So bad we left after just 2 drinks. There are around 8 cubicles and almost all had an issue meaning I didn't want to use it. 1 - a cardigan left behind by someone 2 - a massive poo floating 3 - a puddle directly in front of the toilet bowl 4 - tampons empty wrappers and used!!!!! Everywhere 5 - no lock 6 - remnants of someone rolling 'cigarettes' everywhere So... that's my review!

We visited yesterday had great atmosphere watching rubgy. The place was so busy but we had a great time and had great service from Ethan.

The service from Ethan was spectacular, had a brilliant time watching the six nations. He was non stop, and provided great recommendations.

Overall a decent Bar with lights music and good vibes.

Nice friendly helpful staff. Informative about what football is on and also advertising it online unlike their competitors. Well done

Better than the Chelmsford franchise. Staff are friendly

Always a good night out, lovely staff especially Joe who is super friendly and attentive.

a great venue when it comes to clubbing in colchester town - music is always good, fast service and skilled bartenders; love it! johny is great, 5 stars 😁

Jonny is such a good bartender, always makes us feel welcome no matter what. Makes the experience here always a positive one :)

Great atmosphere one bartender in particular (Jonhy) was lovely and very welcoming

Always a great place to go watch the football!

Didn't have any food here but drinks and atmosphere where great x

Ordered food from them which never arrived! The app said it was delivered! Dinner ruined. The answer from them was "driver collected it so it is not up to us anymore"! Seriously?! Surely as a business you want that to go smoothly from order placement to delivery so customers would come back? It's a shame a we liked the food we had previously but with that attitude how can you trust them again to handle your orders?! Not ordering again.

Good Pub in Essex clean Helpful Staff

What a great Venue! Amazing service from the whole staff, especially Jonny and Madeleine! What a great pair they make :)

Shona and Chad were awesome. Brilliant service and excellent conversation.

One of the few places in town for a good night

Amazing service on a very busy night I was served very quickly and with excellent customer service by Rio

Was here the other week. Had great customer service by Rio. Would definitely recommend coming here!

Had a great time at Walkabout. Was nice to be greeted at the door by Rio. Don’t get that personal service everywhere! Great atmosphere. Had really good food.

Had a great time with friends. Rio on the door was particularly helpful thank you. Be back soon 😌

Went to walkabout last weekend and was greeted by a lovely lady. Rio was very welcoming. It was lovely to have great service☺️

Went here for a late lunch, super chill atmosphere, had an amazing buffalo chicken burger and tenders. Gave my thanks to the chef working (Josh). Will absolutely be back soon.

Bbq chicken wings spot on, mixed with garlic loaded fries. Cracking, I gave a thanks to the chef (Josh)

Great burgers recently with reasonably priced drinks and excellent friendly service from Rio .🙂 Highly recommend.

Loved the food here, the vegan burger chef Josh prepared was banging, will defiinatly come here to eat again 10/10

Great service, food is always nice and to a good standard. Rio is very friendly and approachable.

Staff are very friendly. Rio is well-mannered when greeting us on door till.

Got serviced by rio was absolutely amazing, food and drinks were fast and it was an amazing service!! Highly recommend

Good food and reasonable prices. Had a great welcome from Rio when we entered with a lovely smile and a warm hello

Great atmosphere, food @ drink here, with helpful friendly staff. We were welcomed by Rio, and a big smile. Will be back again soon.

Great food, Great service, Great atmosphere My food was expertly prepared by a strapping young lad; i believe he said his name was Joshua Thompson, the chillie bang chicken burger was excellent! 5 stars, would dine again

Went here for lunch and had an amazing buffalo chicken burger with just the right amount of sauce and spice. The chef working that day (Josh) was nice enough to recommend it to me. I'll definitely be back!

Got some sriracha tenders and loaded fries. Absolutely 100% on quality and came out fast too. Asked for the cooks name and it was Josh Thompson. Well done mate.

Came in the other day and ordered the loaded fries and they did not disappoint they were fresh with the perfect amount of topping. I asked for the cooks name ( which was Josh) so I could show my appreciation of the food quality I was given 10/10.

Great night and great service from grace, super quick and friendly

Had an amazing service from Grace and made sure I was looked after and served. I appreciate the kindness

Love this place! Staff are amazing and the vibe is both relaxed and chilled.

Came here to watch the forest game, no one at the bar. Staff sat down in a big group chatting and laughing. We put an order for 2 drinks on the app. No one acknowledged it. Waited 15 mins and went to the pub for someone to get up from their group to serve us. Finally got our drinks. No one at the bar for over 45 mins. Ordered food for the wings to come out cold, we sent them back, for the girl to bring us the cold ones back out. Asked for a refund, the other lady behind the bar went to tell the kitchen and she came back out and said they made us new ones. The girl before didn’t even wait for new ones to be made she literally brought out the same cold ones we sent back. She was too busy sitting with her friends eating and drinking. Honestly the worst service ever. They really need to sort out their staff, especially when it comes to food hygiene and food safety. It’s all well and good and cheap employing students, but they don’t know what they’re doing nor do they care. People will get seriously ill from cold and re-heated chicken, it’s actually so gross.

Very good food Very good service can'twait to go back

The food is great. The staff are friendly and helpful and the overall vibe is nice. Also Sunday night half price drinks is awesome.

TV screens are awesome, never not been able to see. The big screen with the seating at the back is great but as a rugby fan, lose this to the football often. Food is pretty good. Service not bad. Just wish the toilets and floor didn't feel so gross. You literally stick to the floor.

Had a great evening! Everyone was really friendly and the service was great! Will be back soon!

Came in for the women’s football it was England vs Colombia. Bar staff was very friendly and atmosphere was great. Thank you Jayde and Christie for taking your time to give me recommendations, I came in at 12pm only for one and only left at 8!😂 would like to give a big thanks to Phil the chef who cooked my tenders, they were splendid. Would definitely recommend this place to everyone, it’s been my regular bar for years. Can’t seem to leave 🤭

Great service and amazing deals! Atmosphere was great!

Shona is very polite and patient especially when it comes to dealing with customers at the bar on a night out. Walkabout is probably the only busy place in Colchester for a night out.

Would definitely recommend! Good sports bar, nice venue and the staff are lovely especially Libby who was very helpful :)

I frequently visit walkabout and every time without a doubt Johnny looks after me and my friends, exceptional service and friendly, hands down the best employee!

Love this place, shout out Jonhy!

I love this place but the djs are the worst. Always playing stupid songs that we can never dance. I’ve seen people just sitting there couldn’t do nothing. Even if we request some songs they won’t play. Nice place but terrible worst music (dj) never go to this place if you want to dance

This WAS a cool place to eat with my son and watch some football. New menu is limited and offers no sharers, wraps or anything for kids. This eliminates Walkabout as a place to go in the future (and its the same for many others judging by how empty it was). The toilets have always been terrible and it's something to tolerate if you visit. Whoever thought MDF was a suitable material for toilets where people will be p**sing and puking all over the place needs to have their head rattled. They stink of acrid urine, and it will turn your stomach. Address these issues and Walkabout is a viable place to go during the day. I'm sure these issues won't affect their business at night. Edit: Staff are, and have always been really pleasant.

The service was good. Especially a young guy at the bar. Very friendly. The food was okay. But the toilets were an embarrassment. They smelt so bad like drains and the whole of the ladies toilets were flooded and you had to Wade through massive puddles of water just to go to the toilet. Really ruined the experience and what should have been a really good night. It was memorable for the wrong reasons.

Great burger at a great price, can't beat a beer and burger deal

Not bad for a stop off drink probably more suitable for people under 50

Great parking staff very helpful wheelchair friendly very clean toilets and not pocky no stairs and deep slopes film room easy access

megan is brilliant and service wonderful staff couldn’t ask for anyone better xx

Amazing atomosphere. This place has something special. Thanks to eric who took exceptional care of us

What a night... great company and staff were even better with a service that would plse any punter !! Nice one Lucas sure we will be visiting again ...

Great place to watch a match, good atmosphere and loads of big screen hd tvs around the place. Drinks are decently priced and our server Lucas was very friendly, great service. Will definitely be back.

Shared a few drinks with friends here, the atmosphere was perfect, great mix of good vibes and good music. The staff were all so helpful and lovely, shout out to Lucas for making me some delicious drinks!

Came here a while ago , the atmosphere was great and the bar staff were really attentive especially Lucas , will be coming back !

Visited a few weeks ago with a few friends, lovely night out celebrating together, with a Great atmosphere and friendly staff members always willing to help, thank you to Lucas for your top service all evening, will definitely be returning in the future

Lovely place for a bite to eat and couple drinks, always busy but staff are friendly and welcoming, special shout-out to Lucas who was very helpful and lovely to chat to.

Great place to watch the football. Friendly staff

This place is an utter cesspit. My girlfriend was needle spiked and has spent the night in A&E. If you have any sense of self worth stay away from this disgusting institution. Safe to say I will not be going to anymore Wednesday night karaoke.

Amazing service from Jonhy! Definitely recommend!

Nice place good environment with chilled vibes. Have to mention about Eric, who was very helpful and very friendly. would recommend this place to freinds.
