Top 10 Best Beer bar in Loughton

“Eaten here a few times. Food is superb and the staff are really welcoming.”

“We went for girls night, Aura slayed.. All staff went above and beyond for us. Food was delishious and the Cocktails a next level.. Will be back for Brunch this week, the pancakes look incredible.”

“Run, do not walk here... unless it's up the hill then take the walk at a brisk pace. They have recently redecorated but that's not the only reason why. They are now serving Chuck & Brisket, a small menu filled with the absolute best burgers I have tasted. Forget Dead Hippies from Meat Liquor, or Shake Shack. The cheeseburgers here are juicy, mouth-watering and the most delicious brioche meat sandwiches I'vehad in a very long time. The patties taste incredible and are so moist. I couldn't fault it and I was a little sad when it was over. Their skin-on fries transported me to my grandmother's kitchen, for me, a comfort food. I would absolutely come back here, and implore any newcomers and regulars to try their delightful menu, otherwise you would be doing yourself a disservice. You will not regret it.”

“Great beers, amazing wines, really knowledgeable and friendly owners, they’re obviously very passionate! Love this place.”

“Had an excellent Sunday brunch here to celebrate a friend's birthday. The Eggs Benedict was superb. Service was good and it had a nice ambiance.”

“Very friendly, popular pub. Speedy service. Excellent cheese sandwich with salad. Reminded me of Essex pubs as they used to be!”

“The Carpenters Arms is a great pub that dates back to the old style beer houses. There's no other pub in Loughton that possesses that kind of style. It has more than ample outdoor seating for the present times during government regulations but to be inside the Carpenters Arms is something to look forward to. It has such a great character inside that most pubs do not possess. Well worth a visit.”

“It was good. They served me the drink that makes me forget things.”

“Nice pub Thai food near Epping forest. Really liked the Tom yum soup and red curry.”

“Had Sunday lunch there on 24 Oct 2021. Just loved it. Had the beef joint with all the trimmings. It was fab, you definitely won't leave hungry. By the way, they did bring extra Yorkshire puddings and cauliflower cheese too.”

“Neat little pub tucked away next to Epping forest in a very calm setting. Very interesting decor and friendly service. Check their website to avoid the few hours each afternoon when kitchen is closed. Food was delicious with great range of daily specials on top of standard menu.”

“Despite living in the area a while now, first visit and pleasantly surprised. Visited on Saturday, Good atmosphere, drinks fairly priced. Also there was a live band who were good.”

“1st time I have been in here for 15 years & still same publican's that run it ,Always polite & chatty as well helpful & will spend time mingling with customers....”

“A group of us come here regularly on weekends for the lively atmosphere and the friendly staff. Always happy to see Joe behind the bar who is very helpful in any situation :)”

“Just wandered in after a lovely big walk in Epping forest with a good old friend, and I have to say, what a fantastic weatherspoons! Ordered a small freshly battered cod and chips with mushy peas and a leffe blonde to wash it down (lunchtime deals of course! £6.99?! Can’t say fairer than that!) Can confidently say it was the best weatherspoons food I’ve ever had, fish was perfectly cooked, fantastically crispy batter whilst maintaining a juicy succulent cod piece in the middle, and might I say generous portions for a small plate! Perfectly poured crisp pint to top it all off, what more could you ask for? The last post? It’s my FIRST choice in Loughton let me tell you that much :)”

“Visited last weekend for a party. Food was absolutely amazing, nothing was a problem for the staff. Friendly and engaging staff, Michelle and Navin can certainly put a party together. Would recommend 100% and will definitely visit again”

“Stopping in afternoon on a Friday for a quick drink, immaculately clean, friendly bar-staff. It's a little quiet, but that's exactly what you'd expect at that time. A great experience”
