The Leather Bottle, Colchester
i dont agree with the last comment about this place, if you think its a nice place then try spending a few evenings a week in there and believe me your attitude towards the place will change big style, from what i have heard the new chef closes the kitchen more than it is open. How do you expect to make any money like that. Go in there on a wednesday night for a real eye opener as to what the place is like

THIS PUB HAS CHANGED HANDS SINCE THE LAST COMMENTS WERE MADE, IT IS NOW A REALLY NICE PLACE TO GO AND HAVE A DRINK AND A MEAL, THE BEER IS GOOD AND THE FOOD IS NOW OUTSTANDING, I WOULD CHOOSE THIS PUB OVER ANY IN THE SURROUNDING AREA, GIVE IT A TRY ITS WELL WORTH IT!

I WORKED AT THE LEATHER BOTTLE FOR A WHILE AS A CHEF, MY EXPERIANCE THERE WAS A TOTAL NIGHTMARE, THE COUPLE MANAGING IT HAVENT GOT A CLUE.
THE LANDLORD BARS SO MANY PEOPLE IM SURPRISED THE PUB HAS ANY CUSTOMERS AT ALL, HE HAS RECENTLY CAUSED PROBLEMS WITH THE LADIES DARTS TEAM SO THEY HAVE NOW LEFT, EVERYONE THAT USED TO DRINK IN THERE HAS TURNED THERE BACK ON THE PLACE NOW, GRS OR PUNCH SHOULD PULL THERE FINGERS OUT AND GET A DECENT COUPLE IN THERE TO RUN IT AS THE PUB ITSELF HAS LOADS OF POTENTIAL.
I PERSONALY WOULD DRINK IN THERE IF THE BREWERY DONE SOMETHING WITH IT, IF ANY LIVES IN THE COLCHESTER AREA JUST POP IN AND SEE WHAT I MEAN ABOUT THE PLACE.
IF I HAD THE TIME I WOULD TAKE THE PUB ON BUT UNFORTUNATELY I DONT, GET THE RIGHT COUPLE IN THERE AND IT WOULD MAKE A HUGE DIFFERENCE.
