Robin Hood & Little John in North Hertfordshire - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

You will need to remortgage your home to eat and drink here .

A really nice addition to the local pubs we visit. Great gardens for summer. Good real ales. Comfortable seating. Newly renovated building. Food a little expensive but good choice on menu. Car park is big with lots of spaces. Only issue is the queues to get served at the bar.

Wonderful evening. Smaller menu but something for all. Crispy duck salad was so good. Server Hugo had so much customer service and was a credit to the pub. Love the new layout outside and in. Well done RHLJ, Michèle

Recently taken over and under new management. A really lovely pub in a beautiful setting. A makeover, some lovely outside furniture in a great space. Food tasty and service great. Will return

Just had the risotto. Absolutely fantastic!

Called in tonight for the first time for a meal since the new management took over. We will be back as the new team are cheerful and doing their best to look after everyone. The food was exceptional so compliments to the chef. We enjoyed Crispy Duck Salad, plus a Fish Pie 🥧 🐠 which was one of the best I’ve had. The real beer was first class and a new barman now knows how to make a Bloody Mary, which to be fair is not a common thing in 2024. Well done 👏🏽everyone involved from two old / new customers.

Has just reopened and some real effort has been made into creating a lovely beer garden complete with a variety of seating, a large canopy and cute Apple tree drinks van. The service is hit and miss for sure. I waited patiently whilst the familiar faces/ locals got served first regardless of whether they arrived at the bar after you (seems to be a thing around Codicote), then when I finally got to the front and acknowledged I was asked to wait whilst they emptied the glass tray….working in the service industry this kind of thing tends to grate. Anyway I commend the effort and the atmosphere was really pleasant. We will be back and will try the food and hopefully bump up the rating!!

Great place for lunch in the country under new ownership. Good menu, friendly staff who are open to feedback.

Great little pub now reopened. Staff getting used to the ordering system be patient... Food great, but it is a little more pricy

Nice beer. Just reopened, great. Bar service was abysmally slow. I don't think the server had ever seen a bar before. Food was OK, not outstanding but reasonable. However, as the RH & LJ is out of the way, they are going to have to raise their game to keep people going there regularly. Especially in Winter.

A Truly beautiful pub restaurant, a classic with a modern touch, can't wait to go back and have the food

New owner. Opening soon. no longer a macmullens pub. (horary)

Great local pub, nice food and great beer garden. Does a greta music festival in the summer. Loads parking as well

Great pub - felt extra special - home cooked food, amazing ales and the staff are very professional and friendly

Sunday lunch was delicious and tasty, couldn't believe the portion size, host's were perfect, pub small, but has lots of atmosphere

The place was closed. No notification online or around the pub. Was very disappointed as have read all the reviews and wanted to have a bite lunch. The place overall looked nice.

Lovely friendly village pub good choice of food and excellent service

Fantastic, lovely country pub atmosphere with great service and roaring fire

You need to book in advance to get a table but we managed to get the last table albeit hard low stools. Food very good. We had prawn sandwiches and tuna jacket potato. Well presented, good size portions and delicious! Would recommend and will be back. Food isn't served on Mons and Tues.

Excellent pub, very welcoming owners and fantastic pub food.

Great pub Mandy and Will who run it are absolutely brilliant great banter love this place x

Little hidden oasis. Great food and lovely atmosphere. Mandy and Will are very friendly.

Very disappointed. We told the waitress at the bar that it was our first time visiting the pub and we just wanted a drink. They told us to sit at a table and no one attended to us. 20 minutes later we politely asked if we could drink something and they told us to go to the bar and order. It seemed like we were bothering the waitress. They made us feel very uncomfortable. We won't be back again and the roast beef looked very appetizing.

Good food .Lovely ambiance.Will go again

Friendly local pub with nice garden and beer selection. Loved it.

Enjoyed a lunchtime meal here. Good selection on the menu. Good portions and value.I had the salmon and it was excellent. Friendly service. Booked in advance. Popular with walkers and cyclists. Been here several times and it remains consistently good. Will be back.

Lovely little old fashioned and traditional pub staff were welcoming and friendly food was lovely we will definitely return in the future 😊

Nice pub and good quality food not ready for more than two babies. Baby chair wobbly so had to use pram which was challenging in the space.

A real hidden gem. Great traditional food, lovely garden and friendly staff - ideal location to walk to Knebworth House too.

Popped in here on my way to Knebworth for a gig, friendly local pub with some nice ales on tap and a great beer garden for a sunny afternoon.

What a wonderful Sunday roast, highly recommend this place, absolutely delicious!

Wonderful 1st visit, took a lovely walk with the dog there. Very dog friendly and lovely friendly staff, great pub and garden. This will become a regular for us.

Walking in on a Friday evening, we felt like we were unwelcome guests at a private party. We were ignored at the bar and thus left. We often frequent small, local country pubs but would never return to this one. Do yourself a favour and go somewhere else that's welcoming.

Good beer Good food Relaxed atmosphere Worth a visit

Nice staff, tasty food, good menu, excellent ale. We'll be back again soon.

Good food at reasonable price, but slow service.

I was one of a group of about 20 walkers most of whom had lunch. This was bank holiday Monday and therefore very busy so it was impressive that they accepted the booking. As it turned out all the more so because half the staff were off with covid! Consider this they did extremely well with the service, though inevitably with a bit of a delay. Everyone I was sitting with really enjoyed the food, I certainly enjoyed my "light bite" smoked salmon baguette. Prices are a touch on the high side but not too bad. All in all a lovely place to enjoy a drink and a meal at the end of a lovely walk!

Lovely little pub out in the countryside , home cooked food to die for , great service and a wide selection of beers , five stars

This is 2nd time I've been to this pub for lunch in last few weeks it is a gem in the country absolutely love it. Everyone so friendly and so good with dogs. Food was delicious can highly recommend the Steak Pie best I've ever had not one bit of nasty meat. Would definitely recommend this pub ....we're so sad it's so far away from us but will definitely go back

Fabulous service and a fantastic roast! As always. We won't go anywhere else for Sunday dinner. Highly recommend.x

Lovely country pub, great location, bar and food.

Great food, friendly staff, a real pub!!

What a find .Lovely little pub .Made incredibly welcome .Great with our dog to .Opn fire snug atmosphere. Tuna jacket potato and Stilton ploughman's really delicious .

Amazing home cooked food, cozy clean pub, with friendly helpful staff. Use it or loose it!

Excellent Christmas lunch for our party of 26 a couple of weeks ago. Very efficient service and nothing too much trouble. Food was delicious and piping hot, couldn't fault it!

I attended this pub last weekend. Very disappointing. A table we sat at was not reserved but an elderly staff member kept asking us to move as another ‘regular’ customer usually sits there. I pointed that it was not reserved but she insisted. Needless to say, I won the battle but after that, very poor service. Been in many pubs in the countryside nearby and London who have never discriminated ethnic backgrounds or new customers. This pub is truly behind the times. They need to be more welcoming to new customers. Felt poorly treated!

Such a lovely find! Received a very warm welcome and the food was delicious. So cozy with all the Christmas decs up! We will definitely be returning!

Met my husband here for a drink while he was on a long cycle ride. Cute little pub but lots of outdoor space. Staff were really friendly and they had decorated the inside for Halloween. We didn’t try any of the food but it looked good!

Good food, good wine, good times

Wonderful location, sit in garden and have a quiet pint in the countryside.

Lovely quiet beer garden. Very helpful staff.

Fabulous food and great service

Best food in the area. Very tasty, well cooked and plenty of it. Cheery service. Lovely location and well kept beer.

The Sunday lunch is always excellent ...but they could do with making the Dining Room warmer! The draught down the chimney coupled with no room heating made the dining experience less enjoyable.

Excellent lunchtime visit on Wednesday 16th June. Food was first rate, beautifully cooked and good value given the quality. Helpful staff and sound Covid security. Thoroughly recommend.

Great food, great location and great service. Will be coming again!

We keep coming here as the food and ambience are great. Sunday 6th June 2021 we had lunch again. The Sunday Roast was as always the best. My partner and I think it's the best around. Thank you very much Mandy and Will. We will be back very soon.

Lovely staff, good quality, good value food and an enjoyable beer garden. Can highly recommend!

Unexpected stop on a bike ride around the countryside. The Robin Hood is great find! Friendly staff and a lovely garden full of benches. Being on a bike ride, we didn't want anything too heavy and both opted for an omelet with chips and peas, one with ham and one with mushroom. Both were delicious! The ham was chunky and home cooked. All in all, excellent, thank you!

Excellent pub in a lovely location. Staff were so attentive, food delicious and great portion sizes! We will definitely return and recommend.

Great welcome, lovely food and wonderful service

We just popped in for a drink on Friday evening. We had good service and most table we're occupied though you could still walk in as we did. The food looked good though didn't try.

Great Sunday lunch Excellent attention to Covid measures

Fabulous food and the staff are amazing.

Every time we come here to eat we can’t believe how good the food is. One of the best around for quality and value

Great traditional country pub, with garden and good range of food and drinks. Definitely worth a visit if you are in the area.

Family meal consisting of 4 adults. Practising social distancing, hand sanitising, wearing masks and tables are well spaced. Great choice of food, large portions, fast and efficient service. The meals were cooked well and delicious. We can't wait to come again and will definitely recommend The Robin Hood and Little John Pub to our friends and family.

Clean and excellent food always

Visited tonight , great food and nice people running it , will definitely be back soon

Booked for late lunch....even though the staff wore masks they were attentive and very helpful....Very organised and would recommend to all x

Me and Mum had lunch at the Robin Hood and Little John in Codicote. Lovely pub, excellent food and great service. I would recommend this pub.

On arrival a very rude older member of staff advised us that we couldn’t buy a drink as all tables had been reserved. As we walked back to our car the lady continued to shout at other customers arriving. What a shame. Not somewhere that we would return to.

Food was amazing. Staff were so friendly and the service was fast. Will be visiting again soon! Thank you x

We had a very good meal and were looked after brilliantly while the staff worked really hard to ensure all the social distancing measures were adhered to.

Nice cosy pub. Mcmullens. AK was good and a nice Merlot.

Great food, service and a wide selection of great beers and ciders

McMullan affair but well kept beer. Great location in the middle of nowhere. Great destination for walkers

Great Saturday night out with friends. Lovely home cooked food, very reasonably priced. Friendly helpful staff, will definitely go back!

Nice cozy little pub with lovely ztaff.

Great local pub, very welcoming and well run. A true local pub which retains its local, historic charm. Family friendly and professionally run. Not as “fancy” as other options nearby- but honest, reasonably priced, authentic and welcoming. Highly recommend

Really great food and dog friendly at the bar

The perfect country pub for good food at great value. The owner of this establishment knows what he /she is doing. I am very discerning, my business head is always working and I am constantly looking for improvements to ways that I can improve a business. However, this restaurant has left me struggling. I can't t think of anything that I would do differently. You will find a menu full of tasty treats. A specials board that is actually 'special' and attentive staff looking after your every whim. Do not think that all this loveliness comes with a price. In fact the only thing that I would change is the cost of each menu item. I would happily pay much more to eat here as would you. To sum up. Set your Sat Nav to AL6 9UB and enjoy.

Went for a stroll around Codicotes country lanes and stopped off for a pint in the Robin Hood and Little John. Lovely old pub with low beams, serves some great beers, comfortable small bar area with seating and a separate dining area. We didn't eat as our visit was late afternoon on a Sunday but checked the menu on there website and will be back to try the Sunday roast.

A NICE COUNTRY VIBE... GUINNESS AND FOOD WITH MY BEAUTIFUL WIFE

Lovely country pub. Had an excellent ploughman's lunch. Good pint of beer.

A proper British pub with 3 on cask offerings!

Cosy little pub with friendly staff and super tasty food. The pie was incredible but I still had food envy of everyone else's dishes. Will definitely return.

Cosy place, welcoming people and incredible food! Many notches above 'pub grub'!

Great value lunch at the Robin today......sun and food were both very welcome

The best fish and chips I've tasted in a very long time!

We went to the party in the paddock today. Thank you so much for a great day . Hipe you made a mint for you charity. Hope wr can get back one year xx

What an amazing little pub in Codicote.. have been many times, and never disappointed. Great food, good service and a nice choice of tap and draft beers & ciders

I love this place They serve the best roast dinners on Sundays The staff are friendly and very helpful

Very atmospheric in the middle of beautiful countryside

Traditional English country pub. Good beer and BBQ

Sunday roast was really tasty and great value. Lost a star because service was a bit slow/forgetful.

A good dining experience in very tranquil surroundings

Food excellent hospitality great. But some arshole hit my car in car park.

A great little pub, with a really friendly host and great food.

Nice, small pub. Country charm by the bucket load. Even though it was not very busy, plenty of choice of food and a small specials board. Food was great. Good quality and very large portions. Prices were extremely reasonable and the house wines were quite quafaffable.
