Best Pubs in Essex

Surfridge is a great spot! As fantastic as all their house-brewed drafts and handcrafted cocktails/mocktails are, we actually go primarily for the food. Everything on their menu is delicious, from local raw oysters to shareables to their fabulous wood-fired pizzas. And you can't beat the prices. Highly recommend this family-friendly brewpub!

Seated right away, we had a regular table per my request in the app which was great since my husband is handicap. Our waitress was friendly and attentive. The food was delicious same as the drinks!

Christmas Eve dinner was delicious! Service was excellent we loved it! Came all the way from Guatemala to eat here

Always hesitate to leave a positive review because it only means a favorite eating place will get even more jammed. That said, we like coming to the Public House. The atmosphere is relaxed, the food is plentiful and generally quite delicious. Julia our server was especially friendly, but without intruding. After taking our orders, she checked back several times to see if everything was ok and/or if we needed anything more. (On other occasions, Marsha has been great, but she does not work on Saturdays). The food was good. New England Clam Chowder. French Onion Soup & Chopped Wedge Salads were delicious. Wings were good; Chicken Picatta less so because the lemon sauce with capers tasted definitely like an add on instead of being infused into the chicken. All in all, however, it was another good evening... and a good dinner. We'll be back!

Food and staff are Great! Will not disappoint...
