The Dog and Pheasant has been a public bar in the coastal village of East Mersea, Colchester since 1750 when the existing thatched cottage was the village pub. It has seen many changes over the years, with a more modern building becoming the public bar with the cottage the restaurant until 2009 when the cottage was converted in to a holiday let and the main bar extended to create the new dining area.
