Hammer in Hand in Watford

Come all the way from austalia and this pub was close to where i was. I really wanted to visit the british pub scene and it did not disappoint. Had some excellent guinness and great service. The locals were brilliant to talk to. Highly recommend.

I was there for a wake. Staff Great

Great pub and brilliant service.

Friendly Barman, cold cider and clean toilets 👍 don’t much more 🤣🤣🤣🤣

We went to funeral the other day. Place clean,toilets good standards.

Stopped in whilst waiting for my customer (who had gone to Warner Bros Studio) the staff & the locals were very welcoming & friendly. I had a great afternoon playing pool with the lads. Will definitely go back again if I'm in the area.

Proper boozer with great local characters and their tales

Nothing bad to say. A nice little estate boozer. Everyone was friendly enough.

Nice homely traditional pub, with pool table and dart boards. Showing footy. Good price beer. Spacious. Will go there again sometime

Great pub, great atmosphere, great landlord.

My first visit to this pub Nice pint of Guinness and friendly staff and locals

Had a good night in there... Used to be my regular in the 70s

Enjoyable game of poker and a good pint of Guinness

Fantastic Watford pub. Incredibly friendly crowd, dog friendly, great prices, live sport and entertainment. Brilliant find!

Clean Well run pub with very good service

Popped in waiting to go harry potter world had a laugh and a joke because we were from Wales and they gave us a round on the house cant fault it,if ever looking for a pub with nice beet garden and nice pint pop into here,lovely people.woukd definitely come again.

Nice good size pub. Nicely decorated. Pool table and dart board to play on with fruit machines and juke box and has big tv for live sport .and sometimes live music on the weekend.friendly staff

Absolute dive, police always called on the weekends after fights break out. Avoid

Drink in the hammer quite often. Lovely little pub were everyone is generally quite friendly. Tonight however, the lady serving us in the pool room was between two bars so was busy! She asked who needs me, we responded us beautiful (bear in mind, we have a pre existing relationship that allows those boundaries and laughs). Out of nowhere, this little girl, probably not even old enough to be behind a bar comes forth to say the words ‘call her that again and I’ll glass your face’.I was taken aback if I’m honest as a 6ft+ man I’m not going to react to a child. I have been told this is the owners daughter. If I ran a pub, I’d be disgraced by this behaviour as it’s only going to cause friction and lose of revenue. Think I’ll take my business to a different pub now. Well done love. Stop threatening people until your at least 4ft.

Nice place, well run by Paul. Funny little para fella in there. Nice Atmos altogether.

Very helpful and friendly when I needed somewhere for a wake for my Dad's funeral. I was very grateful for this. Lovely atmospherethat helped to make a sad day a special day.

Expensive but unique atmosphere and close to the dock.

Not a bad place if you want a quick drink. Service was okay.

Hmm nice bar maids but very rude😂 just joking great atmosphere great drinks lovely staff and a great outside area 5stars

Lovely pub with friendly staff, good Covid restrictions in place that make you feel safe

Not a place I usually go but attended a funeral... Not my cup of tea.... Excuse the pun!

Very clean good beer .the staff are nice happy days

I have been here before in summer had fish chips out side if want meal on Sunday you book table there do two seating 12noon 2pm or 2.30pm food Sunday beef yorkshire pudding roast potatoes and pea carrots. It was lovely food with my family

Standards have dropped since dermot and Paul left not a bad pub

A very lively pub really enjoyed our visit

Friendly bar with great atmosphere, bar staff and landlords are great and welcoming, good beer very reasonabley priced. Well recommended.

Your average friendly clean local

Friendly bar staff and children welcome!! What more do you need if you're have a swift half.

Shame they don't do hot food but good for a few beers.

Tried the little hideaway tonight. Staff very attentive and food was great. Service was quick and pleasant. Will definitely make it our local. Thanks to the staff..

Great local pub, very clean and friendly staff.

Best pub there is its my local and has been for a long time frendly people +++++++

Good clean pub. Used for a funeral wake. Good for purpose. Must admit its not my usual kind of pub as i prefer cosy traditional style normally. Staff helpful.

Always a great time when I go there!

too noisy, dirty, drunk bartenders, inappropriate comments

Miserable staff Reasonable prices Friendly place

Reasonable prices newly refurbished not bad

Our family booked The Hammer In Hand for a wake yesterday. Staff were so friendly, nothing was too much trouble for them. Prices were extremely reasonable and the food served was fresh with a great variety of rolls. The whole day was made so much easier with the great service we received from everyone there. Thank you. I could not recommend this place highly enough.

Great pub with reasonably priced drinks. Friendly and down to earth staff. Great garden that gets busy in warm weather. Bar food served that's ok.

Just been refurbished ..worth a visit.

Absolute dive, outdated and dirty.
