The Abbey Arms in Colchester

Just reopened after a refurbishment.Excellent beer and excellent service from the very welcoming staff.

Good pub within striking distance of town. Pool table, darts and multiple TVs showing sports. Good selection of ales. USB charging ports on the Guinness pump is a nice idea. Comfortable seating and plenty of tables. Clean and fresh.

Great large and beer. Also one of the only places that really have a great choice for females that dont want beer and actually want a decent choice of drinks. More gin, rum, vodka and wine choices that you can shake a stick at. 4 different screens to watch sports on and staff are great!

Great atmosphere, bar staff are friendly and make you feel welcome the moment you walk, great place to meet friends, play pool and unwind anyway of the week.

Good as a "sports bar". Plenty of big screens, and decent lager/ IPA's, but the ale was in such bad condition we had to give up on it. Was hoping for a bit better.

Brilliant pub with welcoming staff! Good selection of drinks and love the new make over! Very clean and cannot believe the change, plus if you like gins they have nearly 30 to select from, never seen so many! Worth dropping in and giving it a try

Used to be my local for years, real old fashioned pub. It's had a modern makeover, and is more of a sports bar now. Still and ok little pub though. Decent beer selection.

Great venue being refurbished to be a comfy and inviting venue! New management friendly and clearly enjoying their new venture. Good luck and wishing you continued success in the future!

Great pub with a good regular crowd.football and live music on occasion with polite staff and good atmosphere.beer garden aswell. Well worth a visit.

We were unanimous with my mates - best pub in England. Not pricey, food was great (large portions too!) and, most importantly - great service. The landlady was extremelly nice, let us bring our bikes in, so they don't get stolen, plus she gave us some free bread when she heard we cycled there from London. Strongly recommended.
