The Old Lifeboat House — Restaurant in Tendring

A nice pub .Not one that unless you googled it looking for ale or pubs in general. No external sign saying it's a pub. Has a gazebo/ tent covering at the front giving extra cover area at the front. No a large pub by any standard , but bigger then cozy. On my visit they had 4 of 5 ales on . Proper job, silver adder, wherry and Colchester brewery's Jack salty (I think). Abbot was of ! , which to me was no great lose (not a massive greedie king ale fan myself). They had to normal lagers on (didn't notice if they had a strong larger on though !). Handy that they take card payments as well as cash . Easy to find once you know were it is . Walked along the front (towards Holland on sea), turn left at the Aylesford sign , the pub is on the right . Will revisit upon m6...

Had a lovely chat with the owner....a very friendly pub has has close links to the RNLI... Serves mostly locals and has a nice atmosphere/ambience about it...not a large pub by anymeans, but if you fancy a game of darts then this has one. Been popping into this pub over the last 20 years as we are from the midlands and come down to Clacton on a regular basis to visit family... Cheers to the Old...

Always love our local .. the publican is one of those typical Scottish gentlemen .. always has quality real ales & cider + his culinary skills are next to none when it comes to pub grub which is served lunch & dinner times .. then there are the Friday & Sunday specials when available...
