The Woolpack - Braintree

Great pub in lovely Coggeshall! Went for a few drinks and Sunday lunch and it didn’t disappoint, also loved the beer garden. Can’t wait to return

My partner and I live locally and I’d been wanting to check out this pub for a while, as it looks so stunning from the outside with beautiful gardens. We went for a Sunday roast recently and I was quite taken aback by how basic and unloved it was inside. The landlady was friendly but the service from the wait staff was incredibly slow even though there were only a couple of tables occupied. My partner had the beef roast and I had the chicken. The portions are HUGE and they give you extra gravy without asking for it, which is a massive plus point. My chicken was pretty nice but the potatoes and veg were absolutely delicious. My partner said his beef was quite tough and he didn’t enjoy it. After we’d finished our meal we must have waited over twenty minutes to have the table cleared and no one asked if we wanted dessert. Another ten minutes passed before we could flag down a member of staff. Unfortunately, in the intervening period, I heard the chef make a really repellant slur about a member of the public who had committed the heinous crime of asking for a burger on a Sunday. Because of that, we didn’t order dessert and we won’t be coming back.

Terrible pub run into the ground in high is such a shame as it’s a nice period building.My friends and I went out for an evening drink and we’re continually charged different prices for the same drink and when we enquired we were told if we don’t like it we can leave.

Amazing food and so much given for a Sunday Roast we had to take some away with us. If you are hungry eat here

First impressions as we walked in was too much furniture ! jammed in all over the place , very odd . Ordered our meals 3 beef and 1 lamb shank.A lot of food turned up BUT it was not good veg had no salt and our beef was so tough it was uneatable so took it home for the dogs. service was fine but the food was the worst by far and expensive. A real shame as we went with high hopes , we will never chance it again ,pity .
