The Chelmer Inn in Chelmsford

Ah, The Chelmer Inn – it's one of those pubs that just hits the spot for a laid-back evening out. From what I've gathered from the reviews, it's got this lovely, welcoming feel where you can pop in for a chat and a pint without any fuss. The beer selection is spot on, and the staff sound like they're always up for a bit of banter, which really makes the place shine. Plus, being dog-friendly adds a nice touch if you're out with your pet. On the flip side, it doesn't seem to shout about food options, so if you're hoping for a proper dinner, you might end up a bit disappointed or need to plan elsewhere. And while the ratings are generally positive, there's a hint that it's not perfect every time, so it's worth keeping expectations realistic. All in all, it's a solid choice for a relaxed night with friends – I'd say give it a go if you're in the area!
