For the best of Essex pubs seek no further. An idyllic setting in secluded Messing this hostelry serves an imaginative range of meals, all beautifully presented. What is more, the staff are prepared to cope with all preferences and (what is exceptional) will even accommodate coeliacs and serious allergies. There is decent car parking, a warm welcome, superb service, tables within or without and very reasonable prices. Moreover dogs are welcome. We were delighted with our visit and will come again.
booking for Sunday roast for 9 people, no problem. we arrived 10 minutes early and only had to wait for the table to be cleaned. we sat and drank to our booking. large eating and options available. political and friendly staff. beautiful location in the middle of nowhere, distant but beautiful landscape around the opposite will definitely return and recommend.
disappointing. a very small choice on the menu. On receiving the bill I queried an item SPLASH POSTMIX £2. It seems that the bottles of Diet Coke that they buy leave the glass 1 inch short so they top it up from a large bottle. I know that things are hard but to charge £2 for 1 inch of Coke is excessive and they can do without my custom in the future
My wife and I were guests of dear friends celebrating an 80th birthday. It was a three generational group of 26 people. Your helpful staff, slick service and outstanding menu helped make the occasion really special.We plan to return for his 90th! Note: As we live near Bath it was a round trip of 350 miles in a day and well worth it!

Had not been since before Covid. Had not lost any of its charm and ambiance. From the moment you walk through the door you are made to feel so welcome. No rush and yet the service was spot on. A good choice on the menu and the food was excellent. Already looking to book again
we seem to have a very good amount of big pubs and restaurants within few miles of home, and the krone at messing is definitiw one. good eating and friendly staff. should have 5 stars, but parking a little small, although there kerbside parking near cheers.
Most pubs and restaurants seem to be shut in this area on Mondays and Tuesdays, so we were relieved to find this open. It was so good we came back the next evening. Friendly staff, good service and excellent cuisine at a very reasonable price.
First time dining here and the food was fabulous. Wow, what a delicious lunch. Loved it. My only criticism would be paying £8.50 for a very small slither of dessert tart. Overall, a great find.

Had a very good lunch. Sat at a table outside the front of the pub in the sun. Very friendly staff. Good real ale. Car park at rear of pub plus on road parking in the village
Really nice, loads of garden seating, quiet area and friendly staff, could do with some more cider options but worth a visit.
