H/H meet on tour: The George and Dragon, Mountnessing 13/7/06
Right you are, now the dust has settled on the meet at The Crown, it appears that there were some 'issues' surrounding:
1) The quality/price of the food
2) The staff
3) The location (i.e under the mast & the sap-dropping trees)
4) The 'no kids' policy.
In light of this, it's been agreed the next Halfway House meet will be at the GEORGE AND DRAGON, ROMAN ROAD, MOUNTNESSING. I've never been there, but by all accounts it's not a bad spot with a reasonable size car and easy access from the A12. I have to go to Brentwood in a couple of weeks time, so I may go and have a quick look around and warn the staff . Judging by the picture it's a Beefeater so hopefully it will cater to all tastes and pockets.
Once again, I think that we should meet up at the H/H and take a slow drive down there. Although, this place does seem a lot easier to get to than The Crown

The George & Dragon is a lovely pub. We've been there a few times to eat and the food and service has always been excellent. Don't know what the garden is like as we've only ever sat inside. It also has a good car park.
In fact it's where BRI4N proposed to me on my Birthday, so I guess I have a soft spot for it!

I should be able to go after work which means we would arrove a little later but Frayz shouldn't mind that. Will have to hope that it doesn't clash with staff training as I'm going to get out of that this Thurs!

Hiya all,
I think I went passed this place a couple of days ago, to much of a rush to stop, car park is HUGE.
However, the place appears to be a Beefeater pub, which may present a problem similiar to The Crown.
We'll have to wait and see Hopefully there'll still be some interest

Cheers Fozzie,
I'll be going straight from home, as I'll probably go across country
If there's any interest in a pre-meet at the H/H, perhaps someone could organise it
