Freshly Prepared Food, Quality Drinks & A Warm Welcome

Situated in the charming village of Little Oakley, our pub is perfectly placed for those looking to explore this beautiful corner of Essex. Surrounded by open countryside and just a short drive from the coast, the area offers scenic walks, picturesque landscapes and easy access to nearby attractions, including Harwich and the wider Tendring Peninsula.

At Ye Olde Cherry Tree, we're passionate about serving proper home-cooked food made with care and quality ingredients. Our kitchen is led by a talented team of three chefs, including a dedicated dessert chef who creates a tempting selection of homemade sweet treats to perfectly round off your meal. Two of our chefs have also been professionally trained by Milsoms, the renowned two AA Rosette hospitality group, bringing a wealth of experience and expertise to every dish we serve.

Whether you're joining us for a leisurely lunch, an evening meal with family and friends, or a special occasion, you'll find a menu packed with delicious pub classics, seasonal favourites and daily specials. For our Sunday roasts, we smoke our meats to make them wonderfully tender and full of flavour.

Alongside our food offering, we're proud to serve a fantastic range of drinks, including Hawkstone lager and cider, traditional real ales, premium lagers, specialist wines that you won't find on supermarket shelves, and an extensive selection of spirits.

Whatever the occasion, we're committed to delivering great food, great drinks and genuine hospitality in a relaxed village pub setting. We also have a large pub garden, offering plenty of outdoor space to enjoy your food and drinks when the weather is kind.
