Went for lunch, it was quiet , no other customers were there except us, staff were friendly but it was more like a self service restaurant, so I could not comment on their service cos there was simply none 😅, food was okay, I had cod goujons wrap with chips, taste was average, when ordered food we were told there was no fish & chips, which was originally our first choice of food. Despite the restaurant wasn’t busy, it took quite a while (15-20mins) for the food to come, the overall dining experience was just okay to average. Maybe it would be nicer if you only come for a drink in the evening.

Worst burger I have had in any country. Insanely dry, no moisture in the entire sandwich. Hard, very overcooked meat with about half a kilo of salt in it. Incredibly disappointing.

Decor and furniture really comfortable, and had high hopes due to previous reviews. Menu looked right up our street. My 13 yo has had more buffalo wings than I care to think about so she jumped on those, we also got the chicken strips with either siracha or gojujang (can’t quite recall), nachos with beef and a few rounds of fries. The wings came with blue cheese sauce coating which I’ve never seen before - usually on the side right? I asked if we could change, we couldn’t and that was fine but when 13 yo went to eat the chicken it was pretty grey looking, like they were cooked yesterday vibes. I should have sent them back- I just felt like they would feel only doing so because of the blue cheese. Anyway chicken strips were fine, bit dry and overdone. Fries fine. The nachos felt like a missed opportunity, seem like fresh cut nachos and the salsa was fresh but the like the beef, just didn’t pack any spicy punch. Disappointing in all 🤷🏻‍♀️

Absolutely massive and well presented place/space. The food was good. My friend had the fish and chips which looked excellent and I had the cesar salad which I did enjoy although beware that they use cabbage instead of lettuce. Wasn't a problem for me. You have to order and pay at the bar which was fine because when we went it wasn't busy. Friendly staff. Would recommend.

Was killing time one afternoon while meeting a friend and fancied a pint and a snack, and conveniently the cricket was on. The service was excellent, one beer was off but I was offered tastings of the others. It got very noisy around 4:30, which seemed to be a work do, but it's large enough to cope with that. Overall s nice couple of hours.

Hands down best pub in Stortford- great atmosphere and friendly staff. There is plenty of room inside, with a top bar where you can watch sports, or a more chilled out dining area. When the weather is nice, there are tables out on the market square where you can have a drink in the sun. A great selection of food and drink is on offer, with new menus and plenty of vegan options. Sometimes there are events with live music or a DJ, and there is a weekly pub quiz :)

Not unalike many other pubs these days, the pub serves a dual purpose. During the day it's relatively family friendly and they serve food (not tried it yet), during the night it feels somewhere between a wine bar and club although there's no dance floor. Great place to watch sport, went last night for the north london derby and the atmosphere was brilliant!
