Mid afternoon visit for our party of 3 on Crouch Valley Rail Ale Trail. Quiet on the outside and busy on the inside but still plenty of seating spare. Very fast service from attentive barmaid.

Mighty Oak - Maldon Gold3.80GoodBest of the Mighty Oaks today for head. Strong bitter aftertaste making it very moreish with a hint of citrus and honey.

Quick pint on the way back to the railway station. As has been said, this is clearly a well-run, traditional house.

Early to mid evening visit, Philip Pirrip arrived shortly before my departure. This was my first visit here and I was impressed with the way this pub was run, hardworking bar staff and everything spotlessly clean. An excellent wet led pub.
