Gidea Park Micropub Romford

Great place to drink, helpful staff and able to order beer in different half, 2/3 pints and pints

Love this place! There's a massive selection of gins, new beers and ciders to try whenever I go, and the staff is very knowledgeable.

Good selection of beers, which are excellent (I had two different keg ones & also tried my husband's cask beer).

However, the experience was tainted by two things:
- I was asked if I was sure if I wanted a "stouty-thing" when I ordered a beer. Although I had drunk a different kind of beer before that, I'm not sure the language "stouty-thing" would have been used if I were a man (even if the language "nitro stout" had been used to check I knew what I was ordering - I did! - it would have felt less patronising...)

- a regular's dog was allowed to wander around without a lead on. Seemed a good-natured dog, but that's not really the point. We had our dog on a lead under the table with a chew, which the other dog clearly had their eyes set on (as dogs often do when in range of something tasty, so not the dog's fault!). It took too long for the owner to call their dog away, & keep their dog away. Although our dog wouldn't have been visible (as he was under the table & we were on the other side of the pub to the owner), the other dog had returned to our table a number of times...

Why didn't I speak to the owner?
Well, it wasn't just him who was OK with his dog wandering. He was in a group (albeit a small one), and was very friendly with the staff, who were also fine with the wandering dog - so I quite simply didn't feel that was something I could do.

Really nice little pub. Lots of different ciders, ales etc to choose from. Some really out there flavours that you would not think would work but do. Lovely decor, table service & you can even sample before you buy! 😀 really friendly staff & atmosphere, will be visiting again.

This was my first visit to here after a recommendation from a friend and what a cracking place it is. The beer was brilliant and well kept and the opportunity to taste some very different ales. The staff were all very friendly and knowledgeable. So all in all if you like your beer and want to go somewhere different then I'd highly recommend going to the GPM.

Perfect! Excellent selection of beers, great service and a cosy atmosphere.

Love this place. Cosy, lovely staff and amazing variation of beers!

Enjoyed tasting some of their many beers. Friendly and helpful bar staff.
