The Flag

Excellent pub, could not fault anything!! Staff were super friendly and the room was immaculate.

The Flag In Wivenhoe has just re-opened this week. We went in for a family meal last night & the place is beautiful . The decor, attention to detail and stunning new outside garden makes the place feel warm and welcoming. There is a lovely selection of meals on the menu with special daily offered on a separate menu Monday -Thursday. We had a great meal and our waiter had been well trained. He was polite. Knew the menu well and was very professional. We will be returning again

My most recent experience of The Flag sadly involved a family funeral. Principal mourners stayed in the hotel's accommodation and without exception reported excellent facilities and comfort. The Monday evening saw 33 family and friends served a pre-ordered meal which again was seen to be faultless - efficient friendly staff made the evening an occasion for happy memories. Food was excellent and drinks were served efficiently and speedily. A post-funeral reception for 80 people was held on the Tuesday afternoon and past off without a hitch with attenders able to mingle effectively. The organisation of the entire funeral was made so much easier by by prompt and coherent responses to the many queries that arose. My wife and I had enjoyed many meals at The Flag since it re-opened and so it was natural to choose it for her funeral wake and reception. The staff didn't let us down - she would have so enjoyed it!

We had a lovely meal last night at the flag. We were a large group which is never easy for the kitchen. We did have a couple of small issues (down to technical issues) but were quickly and professionally dealt with and didn't have a negative effect on our night. The food is amazing, a beautiful place and great cocktails. We live locally and are so glad to have this fantastic restaurant on our doorstep.

Our first time at the Flag We have a lovely afternoon meal We shared a grazing board Then The flat iron steak with Café de Paris sauce with fries… it was all delicious .. beautifully presented. The decor is lovely, it’s really warm and comfortable the staff were attentive and friendly.. it’s my new fav place to eat 🤩

Excellent food, smart and comfortable surroundings. My wife and daughter had the excellent home-made Flag burger and I had a really good Eggs Benedict. A superb, again home-made, Apple & Blackberry crumble and chocolate Cheesecake followed. Highly recommended.
