A charming pub on a chocolate box village green, often twinned with events. Now owned by local chain. The conversion of outbuilding to pizza oven/bar is an excellent change for those with kids and who want more casual/outdoor food. Not cheap but many a pleasant summer evening spent here in hot 2025. Not cliquey and increasingly vibrant with the new housing (and a bit more Essexy, just being honest). Only complaint is the wasps, suggest hanging catchers. Parking it a bit tight, we prefer on green.
