George IV in North Hertfordshire

Had a lovely meal and the service was excellent.

Absolutely amazing food and service

Welcomed and served by friendly and efficient staff. Reasonable wait for food which was excellent

Here to update my review - the management seemed to have made many improvements and the service was much better than before! The white girl in glasses with a ponytail was really friendly and professional. Food was nice too!

Okay if you are eating, not a drinking pub.

The burgers were amazing especially the vegetable burger with home made relish . Fabulous service too- we will be back soon

I love the spicy wings from here, always nice

Food was amazing and all the staff was really polite. The atmosphere of the place is amazing and i’ll definitely recommend

Very friendly and comfortable place to go out for a dinner with the wife. Very good food and good selection of drinks !will be back soon

I must say I'm totally disappointed with the customer services after taking my family out today for a breakfast birthday. Service was very pushy, being told when we arrived that if I wanted to add a disabled child we would have to make room in the space we had. The restaurant was practically empty and I did pre-book but sadly my son with the disabled child had been delayed Nd I was told the table we had is needed and booked out from midday. I felt extremely embarrassed as I was treating my family which included my 83 year old mother with two of her great great grandchildren. Absolutely appauling behaviour

W hours late, Everything was cold. Eveyone who ate the mayo and coleslaw were sixk afterwards, will never order again.

Fantastic food and atmosphere, lovely staff and helpful. Fab place to catch up with family and friends. Recommend going here.

Excellent food, great delivery drivers.

Although it was very busy food was gd The server Mai was polite and helpful

The shelves around our table was very dusty. The service was very slow

Very good service with good food when we visited for Sunday lunch. Staff were efficient - not hurried - but attentive and serving professionally and in a friendly manner. I would definitely go back again.

Great Sunday roast slow service

For the third time for Sunday dinner and yet again run out if most roasts!

Had lunch with my son, lovely atmosphere, the lady who served us was really polite and friendly, if I was totally honest I think it was a little bit over priced for what we ordered, and could have been presented on our plate's better. The food it's self was very nice 👍

Had booked a table and when arriving was told table wasn’t ready wait for food was 40 minutes, short staffed. So when waiting for outrage to be ready and gentleman went to complain to female manager and he was not happy with what was happening and the manager walked away and we heard her swearing and her attitude really changed to not being nice. So me and my partner walked out as the atmosphere in there was horrible. Of all the times I’ve been going to this pub I’ve never experienced anything like it. If you know your that short with staff and obviously couldn’t cope stop taking bookings do something don’t keep putting people to tables and then give bad service. Sorry to say I won’t be going again for a long while I hope they sort it out for Xmas rush as it will be a nightmare again.

Top environment!!! Super food!!! Excellent quality, quantity and care in the creation of the dishes. Excellent choice and quality of beers. Beyond all expectations

A nice atmosphere for a quiet drink or a sit down meal. A humble menu of traditional pub food and very friendly staff!

in all of my 83yrs I have never had chicken so good.....tasty and moist...will be using them again for sure.

absolute joke waited 2 and half hours come stone cold got put in the bin dint send my chips and dint put chicken. in my chicken cheese chips wrap only had chips and cheese in it and refused to give my my money back joke of a takeaway

Excellent service and service as usual. We with a friend who had not been before and comments were the same as mine above .

The food was soggy and cold and not very nice to eat

Lovely hot food have been ordering from here for a lot of years always delicious

2 hours I waiting for my food and still I didn't get if they don't wanna bring no problem but they should text me and I oder from somewhere else than

Pub is half empty on arrival after 3:15 pm and was clearly visible that all the free tables were not reserved (also on their system). We have been turned down by staff that they only take bookings until 4pm.

Arrived at around 15:15. Two of us. Obviously visible free and clear tables for two, at least four of them. Where we were "please wait to be seated", we were told: "we are booking only before 4PM". This lack of flexibility is not acceptable. You are making a living from guests who want to eat there, don't you?

We stopped at the George IV for dinner on the way home, first time we had visited the pub. It won't be the last! Warm welcome, a broad menu with some interesting (and seasonal) specials and decent prices too. The food was great - special shout out to the Gressingham Duck pie which was very generously filled and the (recommended) salted caramel sundae. Service was really good, and the owners are keen to put their stamp on the place, very friendly and keen to hear feedback. So a big thank you from us and see you again soon!

food was freezing and chips were soggy

Had a wonderful evening here with friends. Staff were super friendly and welcoming. Definitely will be returning

I didn't get my money back, even today I'm going to give a very bad review.

The staff here are always welcoming and really go out of the way to make our experience better, Grace goes above and beyond and makes out autistic children feel welcome and safe to be able to enjoy a meal out with us.

Food was cold onion rings was half cooked and burger was falling apart with all the sauce on 1 side worst order ive ever got from here

We visited in May and had an awful experience so thought maybe we wouldn't go back, but decided that all the other times we'd been were fine so give it another go. So glad we did, we had a lovely evening. The food was excellent, I recommend the Signature Burger. It was fully staffed so everything ran really smoothly, the staff were absolutely top of their game, we were not rushed at all unlike at some other establishments, everything was calm and relaxed. They have a wide selection of drinks and non alcoholic beers and ciders so something to suit all. Very cosy on an Autumn evening. We look forward to our next visit!

I was not ready when it came because the delivery estimate was so far off

Love this pub. Family fav. Fox and service are great. Recommend

Lovely hot food as usual have been ordering from here for years and food is very good

As previous customers, we were sent a buy one get one free voucher and decided to treat ourselves. Unfortunately this was an experience that was extremely poor for me, and although my partners meal was okay he was left eating on his own due to the 2 issues, both the poor cooking and the quality of my meal. I had ordered a steak, well done. This is something I rarely do, and the George cook is the reason why. My steak arrived with patches of raw, red blood on top. Although it was not necessary, one cut was sufficient to confirm it was pink and leaking blood inside too. This turned my stomach and, with our waitress not in view, the plate went straight back to the bar where the barman confirmed the red blood was clearly visible on the steak. Visible red blood on the outside of a steak is a clear sign of poor cooking and personally repulsive to me. The same steak was returned cooked well done and I did try to eat it but it was tough as old boots and 20-25% on inspection turned out to be a large triangle of gristle. All in all, this meant that my meal was a half of a steak and two small jacket potatoes. I showed the gristle to the barman, who, in all fairness, did take the cost of the steak off the bill however, as we would have used the buy one get one free voucher and not paid for it anyway it really didn't make me feel any happier. I would say the front of house staff were fairly pleasant but the quality of this steak in the first place, and the poor cooking of it in the second place were very far from satisfactory. I can only suggest you check each steak very carefully before trying to eat it, or, as my partner did, go for the sausages.

Always lovely food and amazing staff I take my lady with dementia and they are so accommodating always. Would highly recommend we have had lunch and dinner.

the order was over an hour and half late, i could have walked in the time it took to deliver the other, it is also stone cold and the delivery driver was extremely rude when i went out to collect the food

As Always Best take away Ever fresh hot n tasty Thanks guys x

Stopped off here whilst travelling with work. The food was fantastic! We were expecting basic pub food but the food was superb, from starts to desserts, it was all very tasty!

Don't bother.... Wanted to book for Father in Laws birthday. They don't take bookings for over 12!! They said "we would block the kitchen up" Awful thing to say. Think that's disgusting really. No different to having to tables of 8 in there!! Wont ever get another penny from me. Rather go to somewhere where everyone is welcome!!! .....Then you get a pathetic response from the "Owner" Nothing like trying to help someone out?? Embarrassing!!

What a lovely evening. Great food, staff were lovely, very accommodating and took all preferences into account.

We were served by Katie who was just superb. She was friendly, professional and very attentive. I have a dairy allergy and so eating out is always a nervous experience but at George IV all the staff are extremely helpful and informative about what is safe. They kitchen do an amazing job of turning out the best food at an extremely high standard. The manager himself is a lovely welcoming and friendly man. It feels like eating out but in someone's home and very warm welcome and excellent staff. It is our fist choice for eating out every time and would highly recommend to others. Thank you to all the staff.

Booked a table for 7.15, was ignored for 45 mins to get our drinks order, once we finally got our food order taken, we waited 2 and a half hours to learn our food order was cancelled and no one told us, they were very unhelpful, will not be back

The food was amazing, the service and staff were absolutely fantastic. Very friendly and nothing was too much trouble. We had a gorgeous meal the food was all freshly cooked and very tasty. Served quickly and all food out together for the 4 of us. It was also nice being taken to our table and orders from table too and for drinks better than going to the bar and orderinv as it used to be. 100% perfect

Order did not arrive at all, ordered at 7:20pm and called restaurant twice who said the order was on the way, only for it to never arrive.

Revisited after many years. Great welcome but service after that not what one would expect. Even though we were eating and sat at table in restaurant, still had to get own drinks and pay as you got them, then pay the final bill as you leave

Went in for my wife birthday party , the staff was very accommodating and cheerful. Nothing was to much for them. The food was excellent and fast and the singing at the end was the cherry on the cake ! Thanks guys for the wonderful time

Great food. It's really nice to see a variety of different things to choose from rather than the typical pub menu. Lovely interior as well as a lovely dining area outside too.

Recently refurbished,so was comfortable and nice and clean.

Lovely garden, burgers are to die for and the staff are very friendly. Having Aspall on tap doesn't hurt of course.

A nice pub with a good choice of beer and food. Especially liked the cottage pie croquettes

Nice pub with good food abd valued menu for a chain pub. Very nice decor

Cozy garden in summer and a great English pub. A must try 🍻👍😎

Amazing service as usual thank you

ordered waited hour for food and chips was soggy and chicken cold

Great atmosphere and even better staff. Food looked great but we had only arranged to meet for a few drinks.

Although the food was OK, not much else in its favour.

Two best beers were run out again. Meal to table took too long.

Soggy chips and half full wrap. Disappointing.

Best Gammon, Egg and Chips I have had for ages. Staff were friendly and helpful, I had a great lunch on the terrace. Shame the real ales were off but it didn’t spoil the experience.

Order was over delayed and no good approach.

Very good food, friendly staff, but atmosphere was a bit lacking, think it was down to the layout of the pub it was like a big open corridor, but that aside I would recommend this place for a nice meal at a good price 😀

Friendly staff and nice food. Lovely patio area outside to sit and either drink and/or eat. A chance pull in which was worth the stop!

Disaster really. Not greeted, had to ask and find my own table, £20 for a mixed grill that was at best £10 worth, ask for steak rare, came up medium to well, nobody asked me how my meal was, looked understaffed, barman rushed off his feet, left without so much as a goodbye, thank you or clear off. Very poor and won’t bother again.

What a fantastic pub,driven past this so many times,a real gem,amazing food and really lovely staff,great atmosphere!

Love this pub, great food and service, beer ijs good cos it's green king.

Great food, great atmosphere Odd service, manager was lovely though priced up for a pint when I had a half, waiter ordered 'normal bread' when I had specifically said gluten free but manager caught it, then I was asked if I wanted a coffee and waiter went off to get a menu but came back with a black coffee which I wouldn't have ordered However food and atmosphere was amazing and the manager was great

Good food and drink lovely pub and staff with a lovely garden to sit out in dog friendly too

Took ages to get served. Staff ignored me despite asking "is anyone available to serve", I was then asked if I wanted to pay a tip. That's a big no from me

Awful driver went to wrong address which also made it worse food was stone cold, the paper bag was wet through disgusting

Came with my mum for a light lunch and the staff were exceptionally friendly, professional and attentive. Thank you Donna, Joe and Caitlin for sitting and serving us with a smile and check backs too. The food was fresh and delicious.

my favorite take away, chicken taste very good 😊

Pleasant atmosphere during a very busy lunch time service. Keira our waitress was very friendly, attentive and knowledgeable when advising on ingredients. The food was delicious and an ample serving.

OK for an everyday meal, wouldn't go for a romantic dinner. It's a traditional pub selling traditional food.

I'll start with the positives - They squeezed us in for Sunday Lunch when we did not have a reservation. They were well-staffed. They had a lot of options for veggies and vegans. Now on to the rest. I've never have such a grim plate of food that was not a mistake. I had the mushroom wellington which came with seasonal veg, roast potatoes and stuffing. The wellington had no flavour other than pearl onions. I would have been more accurate to call it a pearl onion pie, the stuffing was a tiny block of dried-out leather, and the veg was a pile of soft, boiled stuff that could not be distinguished from each other other than the occasional bald kale stalk that caught in your teeth, Finally the roast potatoes... Tasting these made me pine for some kind of Aunt Bessie's frozen roast potato. They had clearly been peeled and cut and left out to go brown and dry out then thrown in the oven with no fat or seasoning at all -though, dry, flavourless. I watched my brother, who had the beef I think, try to subtly deal with a skin on his gravy thick enough to make a jacket out of. The staff were nice but I really would shift their customer service training a tiny bit as about three times a clearly emotional conversation was interrupted for unimportant queries and not briefly. Lastly, a lemon cordial with water not soda and no ice was 3.30 on our bill. We are all used to wild beer and wine prices but I feel like there is an unspoken rule of cool in pubs across the country that the one option for people who are struggling financially is cordial. In conclusion, thank you for accommodating us but my word I won't come again.

The delivery driver very rudely told me my next order would be cancelled if I don't order more food next time. He didn't elaborate on how much I had to spend and made me feel bad for doing nothing wrong.

Fantastic food! Fabulous quality and great location Nadia was a wonderful young lady who was amazing and very kind & professional

Food was good apart from the chips which weren't fully cooked through.

Food here is out of this world I have been 4 times now and tried 4 different dishes and each one has ended too quickly The service is great and although busy the seating and service is excellent

I was served by the lovely Donna, she always makes us feel so welcomed. The food is fantastic, we had fish coujons and the barbers smothered chicken both dishes were delicious. Great atmosphere can’t fault anything.

ordered at 5:20 was still waiting at 6.30pm. requested an update on just eat and the food was on its way. Still waiting at 7:10pm and requested some money back for the late order. the restaurant refused and said they'd give me something free. I called the restaurant and was spoke to really rudely saying my address is far away (it's 25 mins max) food arrived after 2 hours stone cold and no free item

Very nice really enjoyed it and I highly recommend it 😊👌

Great atmosphere and very friendly staff!! We were attended by Rhys who offered expectational service whilst we were there as we were met with phenomenal food and great drinks! Would highly recommend!!

Poor service! After 1 hour waiting found out the waiter hadn't put our order through to the kitchen and had lost it so had to reorder! Desserts also took over 30 minutes after ordering. Roast beef was inedible tough and stringy and losts of gristle. Veg very underdone for my liking. Roasts were poor but children's meals were good and burgers looked nice. Very disappointing lunch, especially as we had brought family with us, and will not be returning for food again. Nice garden to enjoy a drink in summer though.

food was great unfortunately order was missing one item so had to wait over an hour for it to turn up

Such a lovely pub,will be going back,didn't try food so couldn't rate it

Really lovely Sunday lunch yesterday. Great polite staff. Good food. Nothing too much trouble. Even gave my dogs a blanket to curl up on. Would recommend.

Nice atmosphere. Good food. Great service.

Popped in on our way to the Norfolk coast so had no prior knowledge. Nice atmosphere and good service. Had toasted sandwich and vegetable tart. Both delicious

Food was cold and chips were soggy

Got a call telling me not to order passed 12 due to drivers going i ordered my food at 23:50 ordered was accepted at 23:51 if they wasn’t prepared to deliver the food why accept the order to be delivered

Quick lunch in here today. Service was very good. Food was pretty good too. Much fish was definitely good quality and had a nice batter. Not too heavy. Chips were large and fluffy on the inside. Mushy peas were .. mushy! The burger was good, the slab of meat on the inside was substantial and I’m almost surprised they didn’t ask how to cook it. Hearty good food. The outside area looks great for summer drinks. Would go again

Always get a good pub meal here. Reasonable prices and the staff are friendly.

What a find. Fantastic food. Great patio with really great music. Service was excellent thank you Keiren and the other gentleman that serves us we will definitely return
