Tower Arms, Brentwood

Following a petition, the Council has listed the pub as a community asset. This means that if it is put on the open market, the community is given six months to raise the money to buy it.

According to the local paper, there is a sign outside stating 'closed for re-development'. Website link is http://www.brentwoodweeklynews.co.uk/news/localnews/10933544.Petition_launched_to_keep_pub_in_South_Weald/

I have visited this pub occasionally for many years and though I would visit it again as their website said it had been refurbished. The layout is still the same, and it has had a typical corporate makeover. The restaurant area at the front used to be wood panelled which has sadly been removed, and now feels cold and unwelcoming. The wood panelling has not been removed from the bar area, but it has been painted over with grey eggshell. There is a new conservatory in the same place as the old one, and the garden at the back has new paved areas and two televisions in protective covers. There is a selection of real ales, and the same high prices. The same clientele appear to still be there, and it is a shame their language is not as up market as the cars they arrive in. Worth a visit for a change, but I would not use it on a regular basis.

We went to the Pub for my 30th There were 12 of us in total the staff were very friendly and extremely helpful. We sat in the conservatory over looking the gardens for our meal the food was lovely and the bill was extremely reasonable. Could not fault the pub or it's staff in any way.
