Tried the pub, not very welcoming from the outside, bright lights, no curtains, big signs for food & entertainment...and a tree growing out of the roof.
Inside not too bad...but no different to any other local pub. On the night I was there...we had background music, the TV on and karaoke.....not a place for meeting to drink & chat !!....please look at how successful the Thatchers Arms & the Essex Arms are and re-think ...please look at your pub from outside. What would make YOU drink in there?
You could have a brilliant pub by attracting real ale drinkers, dog walkers from Thorndon Park, coffee mornings instead of the very few young lager drinkers you are obviously aiming for........I would give you six months and like the Queen Alexander...be yet another British pub that becomes a housing estate.

Went to pub for sunday lunch, �8.95 sunday roast good food lots of it staff realy nice will return.

I live in Brentwood and my boyfriend and I tried the Horse and Groom for Sunday lunch.
The staff are very friendly. It's a very relaxed pub with chart music playing in the background and a big TV playing Sunday films in the corner.
The cost for a Sunday roast is approx �15 for 1 course, �18 for 2 courses and �23 for 3 courses. The options are very limited however, with no vegetarian choices. The roast was average - my boyfriend had the lamb - it was a good portion though with great crispy roast potatoes and a big yorkshire pud. After enquiring about a vegetarian meal they made me a vegetable stir fry mix, which was a bit disappointing.
The staff were really accommodating however and for a drink down the local I would definitely go back, but the meal wasn't worth the money. There are lots of other pubs and restaurants in Brentwood serving much better food at much lower prices on a Sunday.
