Food quality back to pre covid. The Steak and Ale pie was very good. Chips were good, but a bit undercooked. Service and atmosphere great as always.

Great pub near the park in Harpenden. Staff are friendly and service was good. I had the steak ciabatta which was very tasty. Reasonably priced and lots of choice on the menu. Kids menu available too. On street parking available nearby and several carparks in the town a short distance away.

Popped in with our dogs for a spot of lunch, tried the specials (chicken pie followed by a tarte tatin) it was the best pub food I have had in Harpenden in a long time. The staff were welcoming and friendly. Would Highly recommend a visit.

A low grade for very bed hygienic standards in rest rooms. Water does not flush! No hot water to wash hands and broken tap. I have tried Sunday roast, but I didn't like the meat.

Awful food and experience! We visited for a family gathering on Sunday 27 August at tea-time (four adults and three kids). The two adult roast beef meals were horrible – the beef was just fat and the meat chewy. The kids roast chicken was extremely dry and hard – it looked reheated. And worst of all, was my elderly mother-in-law's prawn and chorizo on sour dough bread. Honestly, the chorizo looked as though it had been cooked three days ago. The pieces were like little STONES – in fact, she unknowingly took a bite of one and BROKE HER FRONT TOOTH because it was so rock-hard. We complained at the time and all they did was take off the money for this starter; ridiculous compensation for the huge dental fees she now faces. What a joke. Won't be coming back here. No wonder it was pretty empty and there was hardly anybody eating here.

A nice pub. Had a Christmas meal there with some work colleagues. Food was good, although it all came out separately but you can kind of expect that with a large group, especially this time of year. Christmas Burger was on the dry side... Which was disappointing but still edible. Small gravy portions for those who had it.

Booked a table at 13.00 on Saturday 30th July. Got there on time but told it was a 45 min wait for food asked why when we had booked told that 10 people had turned up before us and there is a first come first service policy so I asked what’s the point in booking ?? We were then told they had no chicken and only food available was pie and roasted Halumi

It's okay the cider was nice but the place looks like it needs updating especially on the inside. It is a Greene King pub. Our nachos were overcooked and greasy I wouldn't order there again because if they cannot get a simple dish right then why order something a lot more challenging 🤭 sorry but I need to be honest... view the photo 📸

Didn't go inside the pub so can't comment on that. Was seated promptly after track and trace. We were asked to order drinks by the app, had to download the app first which took a while. Some of the waiters took orders from others which was frustrating. But once app downloaded it was easy to purchase and drinks arrived quickly. Nice outside area.

I met up here with a friend for lunch, which was fine. I used the complementary parking at the rear, parking in the assigned bays as indicated on the sign. I was not aware that I was expected to register my vehicle at the bar and have just been served with a £100 penalty notice, which makes this one of the most expensive pub meals I've had in many years! My friend and I will have to meet elsewhere.
