This is a hidden gem in Chelmsford: a great little pub with a delightful range of real ale and a cosy downstairs drinking vibe. Check it out!

Excellent cocktails (recommend the voodoo collins, nola daiquiri and vieux carre), friendly service and brilliant atmosphere. Easily the best bar in Chelmsford.

Love this bar, great drink selection and atmosphere with a good selection of events and music at the weekend. Cosy atmosphere, love the vinyl nights did get very loud towards the end of the night but individual preference I guess! I always recommend to anyone wanting somewhere more upmarket to go in Chelmsford.

It’s the vibe of the city always with a warm welcome, awesome drinks and some unique events! Situated in the old Chelmsford Prison many of the original features are still in place, including the iron cell door, Voodoo Keller Bar is the bar of the Chelmsford Brew Co serving up their epic brews and guest taps alongside an unrivalled cocktail menu. The weekly cocktail specials are definitely social and often something you won’t find anywhere else. If that or the main cocktail menu aren’t enough you can often make requests, there’s really nothing Ben the Mixologist can’t make (I’ve tried to challenge him!) The theme nights and live music add an extra element of awesomeness to Voodoo Keller especially some of the foodie partnerships with the likes of Parlour Homecooking. There’s an absolute vibe and one sure to be experienced!

Great little spot in Chelmsford. Voodoo Keller Bar has a brilliant underground vibe, with live DJs that really bring the place to life. The cocktails are spot on and the atmosphere is always lively but friendly. Definitely worth a visit if you fancy something a bit different.
