    They don't seem to be doing much of a job promoting or advertising. No imformation about the place at all.

    Was in Ongar village earlier and noticed some work going on at the building designated as a pub (the one opposite the off licence).

    The outside is being painted and there appears to be some fit out work going on inside.

    Anybody know anything about this?

    Is Ongar finally getting it's long awaited public house?!!!

    Can't see it be opening today seen it was painted alright, hope it will be a nice pub so handy to have a pub in walking distance from my house.

    some places like a softly softly launch so that teething issues can be ironed out in the first few weeks before there is a big PR/promotional launch (flyers/adverts in local papers etc).

    I wonder will they serve food/pub grub? Would be nice to have a place within walking distance to get a carvery/meat & 2 veg type meal at weekends or in the evenings if you don't fancy turning on the cooker or want the usual takeaway options that Ongar seems to have plenty of these days.

    I heard there will be a private members club upstairs. All gossip at this stage though!

    I also heard a rumour about who is financing the pub and fit-out and it was a very interesting.
