So I was in Southend to watch my Beloved Oldham Athletic Vs Southend at Roots hall, fan bar at the stadium and the blue boar 🐗 are for home fans only so ended up at the Railway pub which had a mixture of Oldham and Southend fans. Boozer was absolutely hammered and a fantastic atmosphere with football ⚽️ on the tvs throughout the pub, Polite and friendly staff, To drink my first pint was a pint of Doom bar which wasn't the best and then I opted for a pint of Moretti. You can pay cash or card, Extremely busy on match day which is to be expected meaning a short wait to get served but definitely recommend The Railway Tavern 🍺. 5☆ 5☆ 5☆ 5☆ 5☆
