The White Horse in Chelmsford

Ah, The White Horse in Great Baddow – it's one of those pubs that just feels like a proper local gem, you know? From what I've gathered chatting about it, the food really steals the show; there's a fantastic range of dishes that cater to all tastes, whether you're tucking into a hearty Sunday roast or something lighter from the vegan menu. The staff are an absolute delight, always friendly and on point, making you feel right at home from the moment you walk in – I love hearing stories like the chef popping over for a chat. It's dog-friendly too, which is a nice touch for us who like to bring the pup along. On the flip side, while the recent vibes are all positive, that overall rating hints there might be times when things aren't quite as smooth, perhaps a wait for a table or a dish that doesn't quite live up to expectations. And with the prices sitting at moderate, it could add up if you're not careful. All in all, it's a solid choice for a relaxed evening out, but like any pub, it's worth keeping in mind it might not be perfect every time – still, I'd say give it a go for a proper British pub experience.
