Caffe Nero, The Galleria, Hatfield in Welwyn Hatfield

One of the best cafes in Hatfield

Never seems to be enough staff on hence the long waits. They are friendly when you get there. Coffee is good for a chain and frankly there is very little competition in this area. Food is decent. No real cosy atmosphere due to design and location.

A excellent place to pick up a coffee and a quick bite. They offer very prompt service to customers.

The atmosphere in this Caffè Nero is fantastic. Nice airy feeling due to the lack of a ceiling and the location is quite literal at the centre of Galleria.

Really rude woman. Asked for half a pump of Chai latte (as syrup is used in other coffee shops) and was laughed at and told there is no pump and was spoken to impolitely and rudely, as she then chucked out the powder and huffed. No manners and it was such an effort to make the drink, which then tasted gross, as it had been rushed.

Took a while to get served as conversation seemed more important amongst the staff. Ordered large Caramel cappuccino and got large latte due to lack of concentration

Nice and friendly staff. Coffee oasis in the sea of outlets.

Normal Nero experience but what a long long wait.

I waited 10 minutes to order a takeaway coffee and when it got to the point where I could order it, I heard sorry no lid.

Christmas Coffee served in take away cup , damaged sofa, damaged chairs etc

Only use takeaway cups each visit. Charges should be reduced if not supplying correct cups when drinking in.

Lovely staff, good coffee, foccacia sandwich with brie nicely toasted.

CLOSED EARLY SAID THEY CLOSE AT 8

Standard coffee. Delicious cakes 🤤

One person serving at 12.30, lunch time I am 1 of 12 people waiting. Really frustrating, very poor management of staff. Galleria, Hatfield by the way!

Every time I ask for a soya milk coffee comes with normal milk. 🤯

Good coffee and selection of snacks, pretty standard as far as Nero quality goes. The staff here are always friendly and attentive. The cafe used to have an issue with there not being enough staff to service the long queues, especially during weekends but that seems to have been resolved and I always see at least 2 people at the counter now, which is a big improvement. A lot of trainee staff recently who on occasion may get our orders wrong but usually it's a minor issue and they're happy to resolve it. All in all, I think this is the best cafe in the Galleria for sure and one of the best in Hatfield.

Best coffee ever!! Sorry Starbucks but sometimes Nero does things better

Very slow, always only one person doing coffee even if it’s so busy 😀👎🏻

I always frequent here in the morning with a good coffee before work and the staff are always super friendly and helpful even when it's so early in the morning

Lovely coffee made by Lovely staff. Thank you!

The tables and chairs had seen better and and were quite grubby. Expensive experience.

Popped into the cafe today and was very surprised. At a time when covid is on the rise I thought the cafe would be taking every precaution to protect it's customers and staff. There was a sign saying Masks where at your discretion, yet it's been a legal requirement since 30 November. BOTH staff members did not wear masks ... ok, they maybe exempt, but both of them? Either they are exempt or Cafe Nero are getting careless. Next, as staff is preparing my tea in a mug he COUGHS over it before handing it over! Whilst I accepted the tea, too stunned to do otherwise, I obviously did not drink it. This is very poor and hope the cafe will improve their hygiene and care of their customers.

It was very good nice coffee and nice food

Very friendly and helpful staff. Couldn't fault their customer service. Thanks

Buen lugar donde tomar bebidas calientes e incluso algo de comer.

Great layout and design, nice location on the first floor, good coffee and cakes

Good old Caffe Nero, you know what you're going to get, but for some reason their Baristas (at any branch) seem more human than at other chains.

Very friendly and helpful staff

The two people working today were extremely friendly and helpful during a very busy lunchtime. Coffee was excellent!

Nero is one of the best coffee flavours you can try with a unique taste,, Also nice and welcoming staff on this branch,, Highly recommended!

Great service and fantastic location for both family coffee get togethers and business meetings. Parking facilities are brilliant as are disability accesses. Once done with coffee the outlet stores are brilliant. Some massive brands like M&S, TK Maxx, Nike and others.

Quiet and relaxed. Lovely drinks

Another very nice branch of the Ceffee Nero chain, this one in the Galleria outlet mall. While it is inside the mall, it is open on three sides, coupled with the high ceiling of the mall and the open space in front, the café has an outdoor feel. I particularly like the rattan chairs with small round tables and the awning, they give a Parisian feel. A must go to coffeeshop when shopping in Galleria.

Although they have stopped using lacto-free milk

Did not visit this time but have been lots of times before lovely food and service very nice surroundings

Best coffee, good service and very friendly staff

Not good. Would not accept cash. I know it's covid but the barista touched my cup, my lid and handed me the drink, but yet my cash is contaminated. Ridiculous.

Quick service. Very kind barista behind the bar.

Normal coffee prices and availability for seat

Friendly staffs and friendly environment!! And foods are really amazing, my favourite is hot chocolate and strawberry frappe milkshake. Pleasant place to hangout for breakfast!

Great service and lovely coffee

Great service and lovely coffee

I had a coffee today and it was an eyelash in it🤢🤮! In this COVID situation its the last thing you wish for in your coffee 😷! I chunked it to the bin but made me so upset, please be more hygiene!

Staff was nice and had a good sense of humour. Feel like the prices have gone up though!

Due to Covid and there only being two staff (who were very friendly) the wait was quite long. All this business of people have to check in etc takes time. In my opinion it would be better if they employed a pensioner to clear away the tables, we couldn't sit where we wanted to because the table of our choice was full of empty cups and plates, plus it wasn't clean. This is a problem I find within many cafes. To employ a pensioner is a nice way of helping out the local community instead of some faceless persons on another continent. The coffee was good, although it could have been hotter. A hint, always ask for full fat milk if that's your preference. Photo, one of the views from the cafe.

Absolutely brilliant food and drink. Great customer service. Excellent

Nice place to sit to have a hit drink. Staff are friendly. Quick service. All open plan.

The lady working in there is extremely polite and has the most amazing attitude I have ever seen. Many thanks

It was sad to see the tables left uncleaned and when asked for assistance only adviced that they were busy and cleaning materials are available for our use 🙂. For next time if I have a choice I would avoid this specific Cafe Nero(I would not generalise this to all, as they are fairly good in other places)

Lovely place in Galleria Hatfield. It can be crowded as this was the first time we were able to find a place to sit, I think due to the current pandemic. There cakes and coffees were both lovely.

Best AUTHENTIC Italian style coffee house chain (out of all the usual suspects!) and usually cheaper too! They make the best decaf-mocha IMHO.

A place where everybody knows your name ... felt like being in an episode of Cheers, Anna was really friendly, made brilliant frap, exceptional service from her. Great place to chill with family after shopping. Social distancing put in place ... Must ask for Anna by name, made our experience exceptional. Thank you

Amazing staff as always very polite and kind.

Really good coffee and the manager was very friendly.

Brilliant service and very friendly staff

Very good hot chocolate. Service slow due to virus and only two staff. Roof of Hatfield Galleria leaking since used a bin to catch the drips.

Good place for coffee. Tidy n clean as well. Good service.

Someone else spent there money in there 🥳

Staff excellent, coffee excellent.

good customer service would of given 5 stars but no pay by cash option

The best customer service from two really lovely young guys!!! Keep up the good work! Thank you!! Only criticism I have is about the cleanliness - tables could be cleaned and cleared as well as the bins...

Good store usual good quality and tasting drinks. Staff are friendly and helpful.

Coffee wasn't what i expected for a Nero cafe....very very weak...even with 2 caffeine shots added to my americano!

Don't remember ever going to a Caffè Nero so can't have been that good

Dirrrrrrrty. Piss poor service. No one cleans the tables and verrrrrry slow... Must be understaffed

Very welcoming and staff helpful.

Toooooo expensive. Better of to go to gregs

Sipping my favourite, skinny decaf medium latte whilst my wife is Christmas shopping at the Galleria in Hatfield

Very poor service and drinks quality. Not like usual Nero. Barista was rude when questioned

This place is filthy. Not one clean table to sit at. Junk everywhere and its first thing in the morning. Clearly last shift did not tidy and neither did the one just started. Totally put me off my massively overpriced coffee and will certainly not come again

Disgusting customer service weighted in a like of 5 people for 20 mins for them to get the order wrong and sarcastically reply what do u want me to tell the company then rush over and throw our money back at us ... disgusting

Nothing can beat their chai latte! :) lovely little caffe :)

Slow service. The lady cleaning up was slamming mugs down and had a face on. The main barista slowly wanders around checking his phone, whilst the queue gets longer and longer. I gave two stars because the poor trainee lad was working hard, was pleasant and helpful. Coffee was pretty poor too.

Caffe Nero is the best place to have a cup of coffee in Hatfield, Welwyn, London and other places here. This cafee Nero art The Galleria is the next place to sit and relax with family and friends, ofcourse with coffee :) Taste of coffee is the best here compared to other cafes.

Lovely coffee and toasted sandwich

Amazing. Lack of staff which was sad may be shift change.

Worst service I've had in years. 15 minutes waiting to buy an apple juice. The three staff seemingly doing everything except actually help any customers. Cafe Giardino next door a dream by comparison

coffee is too burn...a have drank a lot of coffee around the world...

A little haven in the middle of a busy shopping centre.

Good coffee, nice cake, but you can't take photos there. Security approached me while I was taking a picture of my daughter and told me to stop, due to security reasons. I rang the office and they confirmed: No photography allowed on the premises.

We had a very nice meal. Service was excellent. Surroundings was very nice . Unfortunately I had a dog from the next table licking me through out my meal. I like dogs but not while I’m eating my food.

Hatfield Galleria branch does a very good vanilla latte and a lovely coffee cake too!!

Very crowded atmosphere. People constantly bumping me with their bags

I ordered a capucino and it was weak and asked for an extra shot.. I had to talk to the manager because the guy who served me couldn't do it. the first time in my life the manager said( customer is not always right) .. That's says everything. If I was the boss of this coffee shop I sack him.. I work in a restaurant myself as a manager..unacceptable behaviour

Lovely coffee. Quieter location than sitting on the ground floor as the children’s play area is on the ground floor so it’s extra noisy there. The staff are helpful here although a little lacklustre. I understand it’s a long day and probably monotonous but there is no banter or nice small talk at this branch. That said I can live with that as the area is clean and the seating pleasant. I’ve been here up to 5 days in the working week and the large soy cappuccino is tasty and relaxing.

A prime location, with plenty of seating and more staff than customers, but still at a slow time of day, the queue to be served is rediculous and could easily be improved by the staff behind the counter not talking to each other constantly. A fair choice of drinks but the food range could be greatly improved.

Hatfield is the worse Nero I've been too. Took 20mins queuing

Busy but not overcrowded nice coffee

Excellent service and lovely staff

Make a amazing gingerbread latte 😍

Another delicious cup of decaf coffee and coconut and raspberry slice. I think they have the best decaf coffee of all the chains!

Friendly staff and very welcoming & very coffee.

The staff were more worried about arguing with each other than serving the queue of customers when I last visited, and the tables needed clearing.

had to have a 10minute break between shopping so came in for a pick me up the coffee was very nice seating area was very clean the staff were all very nice

Good place to go for a morning coffee.

I Dont use Neros all the time but our one is always busy..has a good selection of hor and cold drinks and an array of handy bite size biscuirs..slices of cake too. I do find their coffee quite strong and can leave a bitter taste in the mouth,this is with their Lattes.

They sell coffee and cakes. Not cheap cakes, but good quality.

Usual coffee shop. OK, but needs a bit of a deep clean. Dust on lights and cobwebs above the counter. Come on, clean it.

Decent coffee, no queue. But tables needed clearing and cleaning.
