Cock Inn, Sudbury

An unspoilt two-bar gem with thatched roof, listed by CAMRA in their National Inventory. The interior is a timeless classic, with and old off-sales hatch (with some old bar tariffs displayed), pictures of the old town and brasses displayed. Other items of note included a book exchange, basic outside toilets, coal fire and pub Jenga. Three ales – Adnams Bitter, GK Abbot and Elgoods ‘Fresh’ with good beer quality all-round. Local Castlings Heath cider also available. Food offered, with huge sandwiches and jacket pots scoffed by a number of my party. Landlord looked like he was from the Magic Numbers. A classic pub and well-worth your time - amazing that Greene King tried to flog this off as a private house 25 years ago.
