We re-open under new ownership on the 5th July!
Come on over and meet the new landlords, Tommy and Marina!
Tommy has run several pub restaurants in North West Essex, and has a passion for sailing and being by the water, so when this pub came up on the Quay, well, how could they resist?

The Wivenhoe Town Regatta
A vibrant celebration of community, tradition, and riverfront fun!
Here’s what’s in store:
🛶 On the Water
Sailing and rowing races throughout the day, including the ever-popular raft race.
The famous pram race adds a whimsical twist to the competition.
High water is at 14:15, perfect timing for the main river events.
🎪 On the Quay
The day kicks off at 11am with a bustling array of stalls along the quay—ideal for browsing local crafts, food, and community displays.
Expect family-friendly entertainment, live music, and activities for all ages.
The event is centred around the Nottage Maritime Institute on The Quay, Wivenhoe.
💡 Community Spirit
Organised by a dedicated team of volunteers in collaboration with Wivenhoe Sailing Club.
Proceeds support local groups and organisations, reinforcing the regatta’s role as a community cornerstone.
