About Three Jolly Wheelers

Wooden beams, a stone floor and original fireplaces give this classic Victorian pub a cosy feel.

Large, multi-roomed pub/restaurant adjacent to the Chigwell Travelodge. Built in the early 19th century, the pub is tastefully decorated retaining some wooden beams, stone floor and several real fireplaces. Prints of historic local scenes adorn some of the walls.

    I have spent many happy times sitting supping a nice beer here and wish I could give it higher ratings (I used to). To be fair I think the new management team are improving things, but it's now lost the atmosphere it used to have and the food isn't that good. Let alone they don't have much of a range of ales. Overall verdict, I'd go back, but am more likely to look for somewhere else. And finally, because I often do, something that makes me smile. This is not about the place I'm reviewing! There are a few criminals in my town that keep stealing wheels from parked police cars. The cops are…

    I really like the dining room ambiance. It is large enough to be private but small enough to be cosy. The Dark Star bitter was excellent, and a first for both of us. The deep friend brie bites were lovely but the ginger and apricot jam that accompanied them was wonderful. I am a vegetarian. I was pleased to see a very nicely produced menu with a mouthwatering selection. I have never eaten a fish cake that I have enjoyed, but the fish cakes I ate there were sensational and were perfectly wedded to the hollandaise sauce. For pudding I had the banoffee choux bun with was absolutely…

    Lovely place in Chigwell for a Sunday Roast / Brunch. Meals are plentiful, service is top notch. Pity that the cappuccino machine kaputz on the day we ate there. Would've been great to have some coffee with our puddings.

    A very warm welcome from the staff and our waitress who was informative and funny. The pub has a nice selection of food including vegetarian options. There's wide selection of drinks including draft beers 🍻, spirits and wine. Car park to the rear is large and backs on to a hotel car park. Don't forget to enter your car registration into the tablet when you walk in for free parking 🅿️.

    The Sunday roast is excellent apart from the parsnips which were solid. What ruined our experience is the lack of staff. Two waiting staff for the whole restaurant is not enough. We had to wait for our drink order to be taken, the vegetables did not get served with the roast and I had to go to the bar to order a second drink. We gave up on ordering desserts. Not having enough staff is unfair on the staff you do have nor does it make for a pleasant dining experience.
