The food is amazing and they even have an South African chef that serve some south African food like bobotie. The fish and chips are really nice and comes in a little basket. They have a variety of beers on tap and the prices are really reasonable. I would advice booking in advance because this pub is very popular especially if you want to sit in the small bar/eating area. The location is a bit off the beaten track but definitely worth a visit.

We sat towards the back of the pub and looked at the menus whilst deciding what to have we noticed the people on the table next to us had the biggest most stuffed sandwiches I had ever seen in my life. I picked the lasagne, my sister picked the chips and chillie con carne and my mum chose off of the specails board a nice meat on buns meal. The food came and the staff member was really friendly checking we had everything we needed. The food was great we munched it all up and even considered dessert but we were just to full. A nice quite pub with some lovely food.

The bar area has been renovated very simply, it seems by just removing ugly paint and showing off the original features of the building. There is no music, just the sound of a packed bar enjoying an excellent and ever-changing selection of local real ales. There are even home made pork scratching sold by the half pint, no need to say any more.

Personally, I'd like them to get a few more from slightly further afield and be a little more adventurous with their beer styles and strengths (most beers are session strength), but I can usually find something good. They have 2 pumps dedicated to the same "safe" beers, like Woodfordes Wherry, which I think is a bit of a waste, since they are easy to get elsewhere. Worth a trip.

What was I supposed to think when I was repeatedly given warning about what The Odd One Out was…read moregoing to be like? I was clearly instructed not to dress up for this place and not to expect much. So I didn't. When you walk in to TOOO it's as if you're stepping back in time and right away I recognised the wallpaper as being the exact same that my Grandfather has at home in NY from the 1960's, so I automatically felt comfortable. I laughed actually. Look around and it's as if not a single thing has been moved since it was put up there for the first time, whether it be pictures, the wood in the fireplace or the old man at the bar. You can nestle up next to one of the fireplaces, which you'll need to on a snowy winter night like when we were there. Get yourself your pints, or as I prefer, the spectacular cider from one of the barrels lined up on the bar. We're talking 7% alcho content people! On cider! Get some crisps for you and your mates and sit back talking about how old and great this pub is. In a town that is hailed as "the oldest recorded town in England" and hosts meeting for the Colchester Historical Enactment Society you surely can't go wrong. A place like this made me feel right at home like my own American dive bar, but in the States we don't have such grand cider served from wooden barrels or a lovely old fella giving out warm Christmas mince pies with joy. This place is top notch. Here are a few vital tips to help you survive a pub that could easily knock you on your arse whether it be by the cider, the step you drunkenly miss, the old man or the bar keep... 1. Don't you dare answer your cell phone here. This is a rule I LOVE like no other. Seriously, watch even pulling it out of your pocket if you know what's good for you. 2. Don't be surprised if you think someone's talking to you and they're not or if they're talking to you and you don't realise. There's no music to get in the way of a conversation, but all that quiet makes it sometimes confusing. 3. Good luck in the ladies room. You could really freeze your butt to the toilet if you're not careful. 4. And, if you're lucky enough to pull while in TOOO, feel confident in knowing that the condom machine is fully stocked. P.S. please don't start coming here and making it THE cool spot in Colchester. I want to find a seat when I return next Christmas, preferably by the fireplace.

The Odd One Out or Oddy as the regulars like to call it, is a cosy pub not far from Colchester…read moreTown-station. Its decoration and the crackling fire make you feel like coming home instead of entering just an ordinary place to have a drink or two. The Oddy is most famous for its delicious ciders from the region and got most recently awarded as the East Anglian Regional Cider Pub of the Year by the Campaign for Real Ale, but you also get a nice range of Scotch and of course ale here. The crowd is mixed from young to old and always friendly just like owner John Parrick, who has a few rules, though, like no swearing and no usage of mobile phones inside the pub. But once you tried one of the aforementioned ciders you want to enjoy it with no disturbance from the outside world anyway. And on top of all that the prices are low and to quote a good friend of mine This is one of the few places where you still get a pint when you order a pint.
