could not fault the meal i thought at the price it cant be good how wrong i was all i can say is try for yourself you wont be disappointed i promise keep it up derby digger

Amazing! Chef Mat Lucania has delivered fresh, local & fine food here.

Zizzi manages to be part of a large chain of restaurants but nevertheless keep a personable touch. The one in Colchester is a place I have visited several times with different parties (partner, parents, friends, etc). The staff has been very attentive and meals served in reasonable time, the meals themselves are always of a medium to high quality and the prices are very good for what is on offer. Obviously, there have been exceptions to the above: lukewarm Perroni beer bottles, occasionally overwhelmed waiter who takes double the time to serve food/drink, amongst others. But this is no Michelin star establishment and if one keeps that in mind and has reasonable (not low!) expectations, you won't be disappointed. I would give it 3.5 out of 5.

I visit this restaurant all the time and it gets better and better!! Even when its busy the Managers get you in quick sharp and the carvery staff are always great!! All in all its a great place and at £3.50 its a real bargain too!!

I would phone and check if they actually have any food to serve before embarking on your journey to this venue. I have now had four non starter occasions, where-upon we have arrived at the derby digger, gone to the bar, started with a drinks order, to be followed by '' oh sorry, we've run out of food''. Who ever is employing the Managers of this establishment need to seriously take a look at what they are paying wages for..... Very, very, disappointed. Each time we have invited six of our friends and relatives to accompany us, and this Tuesday, 26 Aug., We had our fourth visit to this pub, to be met by no food. Thank goodness we can rely on the Toby Carvery at Runwell - They always have a hearty welcome................. I wonder how man others have had this disappointment.

this is a really good chippy its fresh food good value for money and the staff are amazing

I went to the Duke of Wellington in July with the family. I was absolutely shocked with the excellent changes that have been made, the staff could not have been more helpful and the food was excellent. I highly recommend this pub and we will be going back again very soon.

This pub has now been totally refurbished, excellent food, great beers. I visited on a hot day in July and the air conditioning was a welcome treat. The staff were very friendly and the extensive gardens had a children,s play area to entertain the kids.

My first experience (on recommendation) to this restaurant. A lovely ambience, truly like a Thai restaurant with all furnishings and greeted by Thai waitress in thai costume. Food was hot and full of the spices I experienced in Thailand. Service was quick and attention to respond to requests, immediate. This is owned by Thai woman. Many Thai restaurants I have been to are Chinese masquerading as Thai, not good. Would I go again, most definitely
