Let A Pub In Colchester – Run The Foresters Arms !
The Foresters is a charming and well-presented pub, nestled in an elegant corner of Colchester, Essex. Ideally positioned at the meeting point of two of the borough’s most picturesque streets and adjacent to the delightful Castle Park, it enjoys a prime location just a short stroll from the renowned Colchester Castle Museum and the Firstsite Gallery of Visual Arts. Despite its tranquil setting, it remains only minutes from the bustling town centre and its extensive range of shops and amenities. Strong road and rail connections including the A12 to London and nearby coastal towns such as Clacton. The Foresters extends a warm, traditional, and refined welcome to both locals and visitors alike.

The bar faces the welcoming entrance and serves a well-appointed space featuring a variety of seating arrangements suitable for drinking, dining, and informal socialising. Directly behind the main bar is a fully equipped commercial kitchen, allowing for efficient food service. At the rear of the bar, is the ground floor cellar, which has been recently refurbished to a high standard. At the front of the pub, there is space to accommodate up to four benches, providing a pleasant outdoor seating area.
