I went there on Sunday with three other friends. The food was first class, and although the pub was quite full, the service was very quick. How nice to visit a old fashioned pub, without loud music, and even books to read. Ive lived in the area for over 35 years but have not been to The Woolpack before, shame on me !

Rating des Ortes: 4 Rayleigh, United Kingdom
This pub specialises in real ales(8) and malt whiskies(14) and has deservedly won Pub of the Year for the Chelmsford and Mid Essex CAMRA in 2010. Bar meals are reasonably priced and it is renowned for its range of speciality sausages(usually at least 10 varieties to chose from!). Sausages are served with baguettes, chips or flavoured(chose) mash. Visiting is always a thoroughly enjoyable experience with good banter — leaving is a problem!
