Postino Lounge in Welwyn Hatfield

First time me and my partner have been here,fantastic service by a lovely young man,food was delicious too,will definitely come back.Thankyou.

Don't judge a book by its cover. The strong assumption is that the food here will be good. I've visited about 5 times, and have been disappointed on all but one visit. The burgers are horribly dry and undoubtedly the worst you will ever try. Steer clear if you're looking for good food.

Would never have given this a star. Food freezing cold

My second date I wanted to impress how to spoil and ruin an evening thank you Absolutely disappointing, starters were cold even hot ones. Massive wait for mains had finished a bottle of wine and cocktails as date night asked for mains and if we could have a wine on the house to accompany our late course and management consensus was not on offer .... How silly the cost of two glasses of wine versus cancelling main courses? Stupid marketing and brand reputation. Also very rude under trained hospitality staff . Thank you not thank you

The music was a little too loud for conversation

Nice tapas bar restaurant, good food, friendly service, perfect for a quick meal.

Great food and excellent variety and safety for a gluten free eater! Never had an issue there and have become a regular

Eaten a few times here now - always been fantastic, not only the food - the staff too! Highly recommend the ‘cowboy smashed burger’ 10/10 would recommend. 4 stars for the atmosphere - the lighting is to dull… but that’s down to personal preference!

Popped in for drinks, and the atmosphere was just right. Great music,great selection of drinks and wonderfully chilled,just what we needed.

Went in yesterday, great food and excellent service from Ana and the team!

Definitely not how used to be before…. we used to go with our friends enjoying different cocktails, we’ve been experiencing so many times the cocktails didn’t have any alcohol at all!! When we did mention that they said that they definitely did however the cocktail especially the mojitos you couldn’t even drink it ! Also so many times not cleaned the tables quite disappointing ! Defo going to somewhere else!

The food and drinks where amazing, Harry on the bar went above and beyond and made the best cocktails even after he said he hasn’t worked here to long!!

The Carribbean chicken curry was beautifully cooked and not too hot on the spice. Banoffee cheesecake dessert was amazing. The team were friendly and efficient. Sadly the background music was not so much background music as foreground music, a quiet Monday night with less than 10 customers present and you could not hear yourself think.

Fully vegan menu which is great!

Very Very poor food what came from kitchen cold 50 min wait for food never going ever again

Lovely place to have a quick lunch or a lovely evening out with friends or families

Great atmosphere for a drink or to eat

Lovely friendly girl behind the counter she went above and beyond to help can’t fault her Food really delicious great atmosphere Would definitely recommend 😃

Beautiful aesthetic. Very friendly staff. Food wasn't the best, the buttermilk fried chicken had a funny after taste and the chips were underseasoned. The desserts were more enjoyable, however the sundae had a LOT of empty space in the glass. 7/10 for the food.

Tepid food, long wait, not great at all.

Average food. Reasonably good service and good atmosphere for families with young children

We use the app to order food but due to a small glitch our order was messed up. All was fixed and we have been offered free drinks. All in all great service!

Wanted to give a massive shout out to the team on Saturday night for the attentive service and helpfulness of everyone to ensure our private function upstairs went well. We'll certainly look to come back. Thanks again xx

Very poor decor, a mix of raw concrete and rebar really doesn't work and is very lazy.

Decent lounge in WGC. Swift service considering it was a busy half term lunchtime

Very nice surroundings, nice pleasant staff, good menu and really enjoyed my visit

The food was lovely. Apart from the cauliflower bang bang, but they swapped it out fuss free. They were busy and shirt staffed but still have decent service. My food was lovely. Did not enjoy the oreo milkshake at all. Barely tasted of chocolate. Overall was decent. I recommend the hummus.

On entering Pistino's most of the tables needed clearing from the previous customers visit. Quite slow service, but staff very friendly and a nice atmosphere

The most disgusting food we have eaten in years!!! Fully wasted nearly £100....soggy flatbread...curry tasted like vomit...noodles tasteless ...I'm still shocked and extremely disappointed how bad the food is. I will never come back!!!!!!

Lauren, Cole and Kerry make every visit to postino a treat! Wonderful place to spend time with friends.

We had the Tuesday Tapas and everything tasted delicious. Staff were really friendly and efficient. Thank you

only surprise was having to go downstairs to get water for our table as thought it was table service 😊

Our family chose to come here for breakfast, 7 of us. On immediate first impressions, the decor was well- thought -out and presented well. It’s like stepping into a fancy Estately home, but being served McDonald’s quality food or, you could say, having a sense of being transported into Pizza Hut. The food was mediocre, lacked any real presentation, for the quality and size, considering the asking price. However, the app gesture was good. You can order for your table through their app, which works well. Their menu had many options and was clearly laid out. We sat upstairs and various members of staff came up with our drinks first and then our food. We asked a brunette female member of staff for table water, to which she said ‘you can go downstairs and help yourself’. Is this self-service or table service? We were all slightly surprised. I can understand if you go to Pizza Hut, but we paid just under £100 for us all to have breakfast. My Triple Stacked Buttermilk Pancakes lacked any real quality. You could tell the pancakes had done a few rounds or two in the microwave beforehand. Leaving them with a strange soggy-like texture. I have had better pancakes in a similar restaurants for half their asking price. Others in my group described their meals as being small in portion sizes. A member of our group ordered a hot chocolate, with marshmallows and cream, which didn’t come with any marshmallows or cream, this is one example. Overall, this place lacked in a few areas. Customer care, small portions and missing details regarding food and drink. If you are asking for a higher price for your products and services, then you have to deliver on that, which you didn’t do this time. Table water on tables might be a starter, along with a simple ‘goodbye thank you for coming’. Attention to detail goes a long way.

Love the extensive gluten free menu

Lovely branch of The Lounge chain. Good food, good service. Was nice and cool with a fantastic air con system. Lovely breakfast

Not what it used to be, or at least nothing like my first experience when they’ve opened a few years back. Came back today, for a few drinks and some snacks/tapas. I hate to say this but, marinara meatballs cold inside, patata bravas the same and slightly hard. Also, I can understand that it might be the app these new pubs/chains are using, but why ask for tips before the service has been done? The most disappointing though, were the drinks. Espresso martini with no/little foam, it tasted like way too much spirits. And the passion fruit drink, super sweet and I mean it would be nice to see a slight effort into the presentation at least by adding some garnish. 50£ not well spent in my opinion.

Great lunch spot in the heart of WGC. The Bacon Cheeseburger was brilliant. Love the vibe - a quirky American style bar / lounge. The iced latte was also very good. Looking forward to coming back for the Tapas options. Service was great and liked that you could order and pay through your phone and a QR code. Will be back!

Review from our 6 year old, Isabel: Thank you for running this pub, because all the food and drinks are really good. Don’t close for a long time please!

Slow service and rude staff, the place was dirty and cold

A bustling food place. There is a pleasant interior decor. They serve coffee, drinks and spirits. A selection of hot foods are available. The staff ever so friendly and nothing is too much bother.

Very relaxed and friendly atmosphere. Great atmosphere from all the staff and our dogs were welcomed. A wide variety of choices for gluten free and vegan too.

Anywhere that lets dogs and family to hang out in a cool, fun, relaxed place, where there's something to drink or eat for everyone and tables inside outside and upstairs - and lovely friendly staff - gets two thumbs up from us!

There were lots of staff behind the counter when I arrived, all seemed unfriendly and unable to give eye contact. Though my food arrived nice and hot, there seemed to be very little care and attention given to the items on my plate, there was nothing pleasing about it and it wasn't particularly tasty. Staff didn't go out of their way to make my visit pleasurable. Customer service at a complete loss. Will not return and don't recommend.

This was my first visit and only had tea. It was quick service and generous amount of tea and milk. Can't say anything about food as didn't have any.

Really good revamp of the old post office, had the shakshuka for brunch and was delicious with a side of halloumi fries which were fantastic, nice atmosphere, they also provide a web service via a QR code scan to order and pay food to make things a little quicker.

This former post office has been lovingly converted into a beautiful cafe bar situated right on the main strip in Welwyn Garden City. On a summer day you can eat outside or go inside where you can enjoy the delicious menu across 2 well decorated and comfortable floors. The place is very dog friendly with your furry friends allowed on the ground floor but not upstairs. Extensive menu spanning breakfast, brunch, sandwiches and tapas; we have a breakfast muffin, mozzarella panini and Miami breakfast all of which were fresh and well cooked. Prices are pretty reasonable too. Well worth a visit.

Becca, Lauren and kerry were amazing, so welcoming, defo go postinos again for the quiz night!!! 💜💜

Great food, friendly staff, fast service, and a really nice atmosphere. Would recommend!

Amazing staff, fantastic food and always welcoming! Always happy to drop in at any time!

Food is quite good, interior is pretty but the service is always poor. Been here a few times and they always just slam some cutlery and food on the table and call it a day.

Great staff, lovely drinks - but freezing cold

Celebrated my birthday with 20 friends. The booking and confirmation process was a bit off as I had to call twice to change the booking and on the day when I called I found out that extra guests were not added to booking. However, on the day the service was fantastic, staff was great, food tasty, and process wise very organised. Thank you very much for hosting a great party.

Pete and Rebecca were very welcoming. Pete poured an absolutely banging pint. Also had an amazing burger.Great atmosphere. Welcoming staff love it. 👍👍👍

Always love to come to postinos. Great food and friendly staff

Worst hygiene, sticky tables, dog smell everywhere and food was mediocre

We went in there tonight for drinks, asked for a bottle of sauvignon blanc, we were told "do you know how busy it is on a Friday night. We haven't got any and I'm not going to get any." There were probably about 8 tables with customers. So we walked out and won't be back.

First time eating here I liked the food and the vibe which was good. It's not to expensive at all these two meals and two large orange juices everything came up to a total of £40 so not bad at all.

Not the greatest. We requested 2 glasses of wine, the glasses were dirty and when we requested new ones they put the same wine on dusty glasses. The cutlery had dried food on it. The girls were very polite though. However the atmosphere was nice.

Nice place for lunch. Only downside was that it was cold. But hey it is Autumn. Food was nice,staff were friendly

Horrible. All tables were dirty. My chicken shawarma was as plain as it gets and on my vegan partners falafel flatbread the kitchen spread feta cheese all over.

Ordered a vegan flatbread on the menu, was served a flatbread with cheese on rather than hummus and unfortunately didn't notice until I'd eaten some already. Partners dish was bland. Despite the food the service wasn't too bad.

Came here to escape the hellfire that was Misya. It's like they knew I was Greek, because the Turkish rage came out as soon as I walked through. But Postino's nurtured me, took care of me, made me feel proud in my heritage. Definitely the place to go after being mistreated and robbed - food and service were all 10/10. Special thanks to Alex, who made my food with love to make up for a horrible night. A special thanks also to Rebekkah and Lauren, who gave me a big hug and took me under their wing after everything I went through. Best night of my life

Great ambience and great drinks.

Brilliant place for those of us who are gluten free. Love the Tapas.

Table booked for 6pm , waited over half an hour before we even got offered drinks , waitress had a poor attitude and then we didn't receive our food til 7.30 . Not a great experience here , wouldn't recommend.

Carbonara is best eaten in Rome, the rest wasn't bad. The place is very nice, with a relaxed atmosphere, nice paintings and nice furniture!

Friendly staff, delicious food, great atmosphere.

Service was extremely poor. Waited 40 minutes to place a drinks order. Food quality left a lot to be desired!

Lovely place, good food, good atmosphere, good service.

We had a team lunch on a few occasions at Postino in Welwyn Garden City. The interior looks amazing, a lot of artistic pictures on the walls. The food is good, I found the bread for sandwiches/tapas/panini could be kept fresher. Would definitely recommend this place especially for great vegetarian choices.

Like a Wetherspoons but not. Veggie brekkie was decent and large.

This was our 4th visit to Postino lounge, last one was in Nov 22. Food quality has dropped massively. We were 4 of us and we had ordered Korean chicken burger, Shakshuka, Nasi Goreng, honey whipped Feta, Cumberland Sausages and some drinks including Diet Coke. Other than sausages, all the food was disappointing. Feta cheese seemed like mix of Feta and goat cheese, none of us could eat more than a bite of it. Diet Coke was too sweet and tasted like regular coke. This used to be one of our favourite restaurants in WGC, but very disappointed at the dropped food taste and quality.

This was probably my best experience of a l visit to a Lounge Bar, from Bristol to Harborne Birmingham, Wylde Green to Mere Green, and Lichfield. Postino had a perfect blend of friendly service staff, a good atmosphere built by the clientelle and mellow music. They served great double tapas with some extras. Thanks for a great dinner, Postino.

Great gluten free options, definitely recommended

Fabulous meal and cocktails. Served by Pete. Very attentive and great service. Will definitely be back. Possibly tomorrow!

Lovely little place. They serve tapas which is why we visit. Reasonable selection and great prices. You can stay sat at your table scan a qr code and select your food and drink , pay for it all without having to get a waiter over

Had a leaving do here and the staff were very helpful and made us feel welcome even though we took up a large space

Always pleasant. Great team and service and always a lovely ambience

We ate in there yesterday for the first time, took our 9 month old puppy. He sat next to us on the chair and we throughly enjoyed it. Today we went in and got told our puppy has to sit on the floor. Please not he is smaller than a rabbit. We left, as apparently its dog friendly but they aren't allowed on the furniture. We won't be back now as we were looking for somewhere that we can take our pup.

I've been to Postinos regularly and they never disappointment! Great food, friendly servers and a really chilled atmosphere. Definitely recommend!

Great selection or veggie and vegan foods, lots of choice. Lovely atmosphere and staff. Great price and portion size.

Good food. Good service. Ordered from table. Autistic nephew likes to come here

Having previously lived in SE Asia 15 years, and being married to a Taiwanese woman, maybe I'm spoilt but the 2 Asian dishes (Bang Bang chicken and a Malaysian fried rice) really weren't very good. Had i stuck to traditional Western fayre like burgers this may be a more positive review. In fairness if you order a burger or pasta in Asia it's a far cry from you get here. We may return but next time I'll stick to something Western chefs can get right.

Excellent food and service! Loved the doughnut with ice cream. They also make a great decaf cafe latte. Highly recommended!

Great place to chill and eat good food. Cocktails are great too.

Great food and atmosphere. Will be back.

Food is good but for the price the portion is terrible. Everything else is good though

The place is very nice, they play nice music and the climate is very peaceful, the food is good, the salads are a little expensive €35 for two, the other portions are very good..... However, you are in a London town, recommended.

Food was really nice, kids enjoyed there's as well. Everything was very tasty and service was good. Only criticism was that the portion sizes were very small for the price - Nasi Goreng was less than I expected, kids Mac and Cheese wasn't enough for a hungry 5 year old.

Great place to eat it was very quiet as we were the only ones in there staff very friendly

Little attention to detail, includes bar service, pay up front!! Not what I was expecting of this place, 1st and last visit.

Not a pub, not a restaurant, but quite pleasant. Not a good range of beers but quite an interesting menu.

Lovely staff food is good and nice environment

Postino is definitely a place that is welcoming to families with young children. We spent our New Year's Eve here, very much enjoying the night, especially as they involved the little people with confetti cannons and games. We've also popped in for a bit of breakfast or quick bite during quieter periods and have experienced the same warm and inviting energy that was felt on New Years Eve. A special mention for Sian/Shian (apologies for the spelling, I think she is the manageress). Nothing seemed to much for her to do. On our last visit my daughter wanted pancakes but needed all of the toppings separate so nothing was touching. The lady made it happen. My daughter got bored. The lady gave her colourings and a game. My daughter asked for just ice. The lady got her just ice. She really was attentive whilst still attending to everyone and everything else! 110% top customer service.

Friendly staff, super service and the best chocolate brownies in town 😆

It was lovely, great service and amazing food, the staff were patient and kind. I recommend coming here and trying it for yourself

Nice atmosphere and friendly helpful staff.

Always love coming to Postino Lounge, and last night was an exemplary reason why! The staff, the food and the service were all brilliant for my birthday celebrations. Thank you!

Great lunch. There was a big group of us but nothing was too much trouble and the food was lovely

We arrived during a quiet period however the staff were very friendly. Placed the order on the app. The drinks and food didn't take long to serve. The food that I had was delicious
