The Three Compasses - Chelmsford

Great little country pub with Ridleys Rite on handpump plus selection of lagers and other beverages. Cash and card payments accepted. Just updated opening hours...note on Sundays open lunchtime from midday until 15:30 but now closed evenings. Food served but did not try

Popped in for an evening drink with the other half it was very quiet just to other gentleman the landlady Rosemary was lovely. We had a chat about the ghost. She has a house she’s nearly 90 years of age and still running this pub on her own. Can’t wait to come back and finish our chat about ghosts

A good traditional country pub. I'm never certain what it's opening times are, but it's always worth stopping and refuelling here if I see it's open and I have the time. It's very popular with cyclists and horse riders. There's a little green at the front where people often at if the terrace is full. It only looses a star because it's not always open when I fancy popping in!

Traditional pub. Great place for locals to meet and catch up

I hate to say it but a bad experience. We arrived at 5.30 pm and were happy to wait until opening at 6. The assumed owner came out and tended to the lovely flowers out the front and we recieved a very grumpy welcome. We waited outside until 6.15, well after it should have opened but all the doors were stilled locked! They knew we were waiting outside and the windows were open, it would have been nice to have been told if it was another 10 mins but we were ignored and so we left.
