Walkabout, Chelmsford

This bar enjoys a prime location overlooking the river that runs through the centre of Chelmsford. If you've been to a Walkabout before, you'll know what to expect. It's loud, full of youngsters and expensive (£8 for a half of cider and 2 soft drinks). The full keg range was Fosters, Strongbow, Strongbow Dark Fruit, Guinness, Heineken, Budweiser, Carling, Little Creatures Pale Ale, Blue Moon, Rekorderlig Strawberry & Lime, Coors and some kind of BrewDog beer. The single live Premier League football match started whilst we were in and some of the patrons started to shout at the TV screen. I never quite understand this practice, given the screen will offer no response. Why not actually go to the game if you want to influence it?! Others were there for food, cocktails and the like. Wetherspoon's have a lot to answer for, but I'd much prefer one of their branches to this benign tat.
