Ye Olde Green Dragon in Brentwood

I didn't eat here but the staff were amazing, I needed help finding a cab and they offered to help me as well. Really lovely, I will definitely return for some food next time :)

This used to be a nice place for a quiet pint. Now it sums up all that’s changed/ wrong about Shenfield. There are better old school pubs to go to with no riff raff

I went here with 2 ladies in their 80s on a Sunday afternoon. Unbeknown to Edna, who booked the table, this is a sports bar, and Liverpool was playing at Manchester United, so it was quite a rowdy atmosphere. But I was happy to watch the football. We were looked after very well by Harry, and the Sunday roast cooked by Karen and Ellie was excellent, including homemade cauliflower cheese. Even though we ate at 4.30 on Sunday, all the vegetables were freshly cooked to perfection. It's definitely a good choice for Sunday lunch if Karen is cooking.

Friendly welcome. Was provided with a finger bowl for my chicken wings - special touch - plus chicken wings were properly spicy as they should be.

The service is brilliant and the food is fantastic. I highly recommend the green dragon.

We had a retirement do there a few weeks ago. Great atmosphere one of the last proper pub's left.

Spent our big anniversary there on 10th December Sunday From the moment we arrived till the moment we left we were looked after like royalty Starters were very good Sunday lunch was amazing Great choice Really amazing choice of vegetable's Potato’s Roast and mash Leeks Carrots Brussels Large cauliflower cheese Yorkshire Puds All cooked to perfection with fresh produce Deserts were superb too!! Good choice of Wine, Beers and Cocktails and a very nice Port We just say a big thank you for making our day very special and we will be back very soon to have another great meal Well done everyone Alan and Jacqueline and family

Lovely pub and great atmosphere

Nice neighbourhood pub, the sausage and egg sandwich was delicious, and the pastries were really tasty too.

Food was absolutely delicious. Had battered Cod and chunky chips, beautifully cooked. Lovely real ale to wash it down with. Would thoroughly recommend coming here.

Food was very good gammon was very good by

A quick stop for drinks with a friend on a Wednesday night. Very efficient service, friendly atmosphere and some non alcoholic beer & cider choices for drivers. Didn't eat there but their sister pub is our local The Robin so I would expect it to be good food.

Great place to pop in for lunch. Curry and lasagne were good. Like the large area for non smokers outside. Decent ale, running Ttimothy Taylor's landlord.

A great cosy pub, especially when the weather is good: a great beer garden

Great place for a drink in Shenfield in the Sun. The new outdoor seating is brilliant. Plenty of seats and tables to choose from and lovely atmosphere all round. As for food, you can only have some if you have reserved beforehand (?). After a few very comfortable beers, we were told no food (7pm on a Tuesday?) so had to leave and go elsewhere. Everyone else had the same view it seems as the pub rapidly emptied out around that time. Bar food in the evening would be a welcomed improvement!

Went in this pace yesterday with my friend my 10 year old boy and his mate bough drinks and 3 burgers and chips and nuggets and chips . The food was awful wasn’t made is shop bought from Icelands the burger took one bite wasn’t cooked was sick when got home I complained to staff they gave me £15 refund when I spent £60 terrible food will not eat in here again as beem I’ll all day . Friday 16th June I came in at 16:00 pm . Staff nice food terrible

Since its refero the place looks amazing. Very friendly staff

Nice chilled pub in a good location.

Nice place refreshing looks good

Polite staff clean tidy and good inexpensive drink

Popped in for a couple of pints after riding the new elizabeth line

Lovely pub, recently refurbished, friendly staff and speedy service at the bar

I came into the pub on Saturday with my family for my cousins birthday and then again with my sisters side of the family on Tuesday the same girl served us Maya I think her name was she is new to the business and did extremely well for her first week. Need more staff like her who is engaging with customers and is able to work but have fun with her peers. Well done Maya!! ❤️

Had a great Curry, and a few games of Pool, relaxing afternoon just what was needed.

Very busy night but still great service

The pub has recently been renovated to great effect. It has retained its local pub charm but is now far warmer and welcoming. Great drinks selection, food is always good and hearty portions, staff are always friendly. Best pub in shenfield by a distance

It's had a refit. Much better than it was.

Great atmosphere. Great friendly staff. Will definitely be back

Good pub to go for a cheeky quick pint.

Good atmosphere, decent beers and a pool table!

Exalant staff clean pub good beer

Meal amazing very nice atmosphere could have stayed all day bar staff lovely xxx

Great pub with an authentic old school vibe. Has a great outdoor area with the footy shown. Great pints which are always fresh. They are very comfortable with kids or pets

Great pub very comfortable and great staff.

Great atmosphere and reasonable prices. Plenty of parking also.

Ради интереса зашёл попробовать пиво на розлив но его не оказалось в наличии, пришлось пить что было).

Friendly pub, great landlord & staff.

A bit quite on a Monday but staff still make customers welcome.

Хубава обстановка и храна. Добро обслужване.

Very nice food. Friendly staff good service. Wasn't busy. Clean pub. And toilets. Small car park. But enough room unless they busy.

Fantastic Saturday night - live music, welcoming atmosphere and great selection of drinks.

Nice pub I've only been there twice staff seam to be friendly

Nice atmosphere clean surroundings and efficient service during the pandemic

Karen has done great job there worth a visit

Still the most covid friendly pub in Shenfield

Wanted some nice pub grub without the price tag! Great little place and draft Kronenburg!

Nice pub nice staff good people

Naughty chicken wings Maaaaate!!!!!! 🍗🍗🍗👌🏻

Relaxed and chilled sitting outside, cold beer on a hot day

Really good pub, good selection of real ales. Numerous TV screens. Went there to watch the rugby, they even gave out some free sandwiches during the game, nice touch.

Nice new owners, beer, chaps, sporty

Great pub . Fantastic staff .Excellent food..

Visited this pub for only the 2nd time ever, 1st visit was probably 5 or so years ago. Was nothing to recommend it then. Under new management apparently, and a pool table and fruit machine have arrived, though the pool cue was totally knackered, its a start. Toilets were fine. Friendly barman, super expensive pint, i imagine I'll return though, progress has been made

Cozy place to hang out with friends

My local of choice, been going here since before the owners changed

Tired interior, unfriendly staff food not available on a Friday lunchtime. I try to like this place but it's not making it easy. Go inside and you are in a timewarp of dated interior. Handful of people and the explanation is simple. Hope the new management are in the process of overhaul as it just seems to be stagnant. Beer is priced same as other local pubs which means there is no reason to visit on that account. If you want a quiet place for a pint then this will fit the bill and for that it is recommended but it will not be to everyone's taste... Great response...I rest my case!!

Great atmosphere haven't tried the food but snacks were great

Reasonable pub lunch and friendly staff

Super helpful barmaid. We stayed to lunch and had nice proper big plates. She was very accomodating and understanding of my unruly wee son

Really nice pub, very friendly inside and good. Would highly recomment

Good choice beers and drinks, and friendly service

Amazing food and much better with new management x

Great pub , I'm sure Kate and Dave will work their magic here as they did in the robin . 👌

Nice old pub, unpretentious, dining area set away from saloon so you still feel you're in a pub and not a glorified restaurant.

We went for a late lunch to this pub. We were the only family in the family sitting area although the pub area was quite full up. Consequently it took about 29 minutes before we saw any food after we had ordered! And then too a part of order was missed which I had to follow up a few times on. The staff was great and friendly and the food was very nice but guys you really must work on your service please. Towards the end I had give up on any hope of table service and was simply going to the bar to get things done. Great ambience, friendly staff and good food though.

Great atmosphere, wonderful food!

Very accommodating, catering lovely for an afternoon wake

Lovely food, first visit to The Dragon. Nice place, friendly staff

Really expensive?? Wine not great.

Lovely food and very friendly staff

Traditional pub with good atmosphere and a warm welcome by staff food great with a large choice on menu

Cafe type restaurant only 2 in there on a Saturday night

New owners have made this place 1 million percent better

Since being taken over recently, it has really changed. We went on Christmas Eve and I have high hopes for this pub. Good luck to the new owners...we will be making more appearances I am sure!

Old panelling inside, nice atmosphere. Just changed hands.

Regularly visit and always receive warm welcome and excellent beer. Very sorry to learn than Alan and Bev are leaving soon and wish them all the very best for the future and many thanks for hospitality.

Nice local pub, friendly landlord

This is a traditional pub - good beer, friendly staff, loyal clientele and lovely food. Perfect for Shenfield.

Do not be put off by the old fashioned exterior, inside awaits a friendly publican and tasty wholesome food.

Poor service..food cold..and dried out and not Alot of choice

OK it's not bad. You got parking dining plus pub. What else you want. And family friendly

Very nice landlady. Served a lovely large Southern Comfort with ginger ale & lime. Fab.

Very friendly traditional pub. Good quality ales.

My family and I had a very pleasant evening here last Saturday.

We have tried this pub on a number of occasions but always been disappointed and would no longer visit it. The managers/landlady and landlord are rude and inhospitable in the extreme and it is cliquey and unwelcoming.

Have been going to this pub since the landlord and lady bought it over 10 years ago. If that's not a testiment to their pub and them as people, then I don't know what is. Both lovely people who are always up for a chat, beautiful food and a lovely atmosphere.

Thought the staff were impolite

Rude man behind the bar. As soon as my partner and I walked in was sent away for having card and no cash? He has a card machine!!!

Great "pub". Very friendly, and the beer is kept well.

A classic friendly pub. Nice and comfortable. No loud music, so good to me.

Very friendly owner and a nice quiet spot for after work.

View friendly and lovely local pub

I have been to this pub on countless occasions and have always enjoyed the quiet atmosphere. Having met a friend for a quick drink after work, my wife met us with our three month old at 6pm. She was promptly told that children were not allowed on the bar after 6 and she had to leave.

Thanks for hospitality and christmas spirit NOT!!! Visiting your town and desperate to use toilet while walking to relations, so popped into your "friendly" pub but was not allowed to use toilets by both barman and someone sat at bar as I was not buying a drink. I found a toilet elsewhere and also somewhere else to dine later this week ( 10 people )

Great hospitality; superb atmosphere; excellent food and service. Nothing is too much trouble for the genial hosts - Bev & Alan. We always have our Christmas meal here. Highly recommended.

Lovely landlady and landlord really make you feel welcome

Lovely, cosy pub. Friendly, relaxed atmosphere. Great food and wonderful hosts!

Friendly local pub, hub of a close community? Only as long as you sit still, keep quiet and leave on the dot of eleven! As unfriendly and rude as you can get - even the locals seem to give it a wide berth. A real shame!

The food looks great in this pub, but sadly we didnt get to try it. In fact, we didnt even get to see the menu as we received the hairdryer treatment from the gentleman behind the bar for entering the pub with our two year old daughter.

Lamb and mint home made pue was delicious and generous portion too :) V attentive customer service. Not the most glam pub but v cosy.
