The Hanover Inn in Tendring

We were getting a ferry from Harwich, which we discovered was delayed. We had a few hours to kill so went here for an absolutely delicious simple meal. What a discovery! Will definitely do it again next time we get the ferry. Great service, tasty food, and reasonably priced, and not some faceless international restaurant chain. Do give them a go! Particularly recommend the fish pie and the vegan shepherds pie.

Great place, good atmosphere, very friendly staff. It was very busy when we arrived without reservation but they worked very hard and we didn't have to wait very longGood food typical British so quite fat but good portions.

Fabulous Real Ale pub with lots on offer. My tipple when I visited with the Brightlingsea crew was Petty Putin.Very friendly staff and great location.Worth a visit.

A most excellent pub/Restaurant. 5 real Ales, good quality lagers /ciders. Food is fantastic, cooked by chef Donna. Do try her homemade fish pie. Sunday roast is always booked solid, book early is the way to go. Highly recommended.

Gemma and Sarah the barmaids were brilliant, as was Donna the cook. Great food, great service, lovely people will come back next time I'm in Harwich. Top notch!

Lovely little pub. Great selection of mostly local cask beers/real ales, all well kept and tasting great. Delicious food, all prepared freshly upon ordering and bought to the table with a smile. Warming, friendly and an absolute must visit

Yesterday was the first time we had eaten at the Hanover and it was excellent. We arrived after 2 pm and the kitchen was closed, but they offered to re open for us. That's what I call service. The fish pie was the best I have ever eaten and we all agreed the food was excellent.Friendly customers and staff plus superb food.Well done, we will be back.Thanks very much.

We popped in there one Sunday to ask if they served food. A warm welcome and was told they were just about to start serving. The front room bar and back room dining area were very clean and warm - open fire in each. Fab roast dinners - one of beef and other of chicken - incl seven vegetables and a jug of gravy. Absolutely delicious.

Very friendly freehouse pub, Sunday is roast day and very nice they where too.

Good service, excellent menu options but the elephant in the room is to how much food they give you on their famous roast dinner. It's so much, they also throw in a place of cauliflower cheese if it wasnt already enough. I mean I finished it, but I'll probably have some ice for dinner. I'm so stuffed 😅
