Engineers Arms, Henlow

It's not easy to know where to start when you want to praise this pub. If it's beer you're interested in, they've got it in an execelent variety of types & styles, which is forever changing so that you experience a constant form of beer festival. There's also a "real" German Pils which is now a regular.
If the atmosphere is more important, the front room with the fireplace a'burning on a cold winter day can be very cosy indeed, & in those warmer summer months the beergarden is a delightful place to relax and sip a couple cool pints.
A good pub also needs interesting people & I've never been to The Engineer's when there wasn't someone that I could enjoy a good chat with. If you need more action than that, the pub often hosts muisic nights with a mix of talented acts.
The staff are always friendly & Landlord/ Landlady, Kevin and Claire are both wonderful people. I have no idea what that could have done better in life than run a pub, they both seem born for the job.
As I write this review, I'm trying to be objective. I don't want to send anyone out of their way for a let down, but I can't think of anything I don't like about the place. To sum it up, I'ts everything I want in a good pub. Cheers!
