Really friendly landlord, puts you at your ease as soon a syou walk in. Scallops, squid and halloumi were all superb. Mains, we had roasts. Good portions and well cooked. Lovely staff and a relaxed atmosphere. Great place to eat after a walk and dog friendly.

Such an amazing experience dining in one of the outdoor pods whilst watching the sunset, and great fun to be in the lit up pod after dark with our own music playing from the Bluetooth speaker provided. Every detail has been so carefully thought through including a button to press for service. The food was outstanding and some of the best we have ever tasted and the service was friendly and attentive. Absolutely outstanding from start to finish - we will definitely be back!

Really nice Roasts and they were very accomoadating with our dietary requirements, which is always a good sign that everything is cooked fresh and not pre made. Tables quite close together in the Restaurant area but think that's just so they can fit everyone in because they seemed to be fully booked when we visited. Service was prompt and attentive but not at all pushy. Good home cooked unpretentious food

Being honest when we parked up I wasn’t expecting much. When we went in I was pleasantly surprised, the pub is clean and tidy. The staff were friendly and found us a table in one of their pods outside. First time in a plastic igloo, great fun, the kids loved it, we liked that it kept us contained and was your own space inside but outside. The food was excellent, well cooked, great flavours and good portions. The kids sausage and mash had proper sausages which our little boy devoured, too many pubs scrimp on the kids meals especially sausages, not this place, they were great. Next time we’re up that way we’ll visit again.

We had a family reunion, and the landlord was very helpful and accommodating and ensured that everone was happy and nothing was too much trouble. The food was excellent so no complaints there. Finally, as we had very young children the room allocated to us was just right and enabled the children to be children!!!!! Without disturbing other guests in the restaurant. I think we've found an excellent place to have future reunions.

We visited this restaurant for a family meal on Saturday lunchtime. The area was a central location for 5 families who were travelling from different uk locations. We were able to use their function room upstairs which proved to be ideal, enabling us to ‘catch up’ and giving the 3 preschoolers space to wander around and play. The wide range of choices on the menu, meant that everyone was able to find something they fancied. The meals which were delicious, were enjoyed by all and there was very little waste. The service was excellent and we were well looked after, without being rushed. To sum up: good service, good food and a very happy family. Thank you

We enjoyed our Sunday lunch in one of their pods. The atmosphere was welcoming and relaxing. Food was exceptional. My dad who is a harsh critic said she thinks it is the nicest roast dinner he has ever eaten and I couldn’t agree more. Staff couldn’t do enough for us. Children catered for a welcomed we all thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. Just to comment on the food again, every mouthful had great flavours and you can tell the ingredients were top quality absolutely delicious.

I was driving through Redborn and I came across The Cricketers with its Pod's outside, so I booked a Pod and had lunch there with a colleague, the food was really good, you could play your own music via Bluetooth and the service was excellent. Had a really good time drinking Prosecco in the Pod with the rain beating down outside, we would definitely go again.

I was visiting Redbourn and wanted somewhere to grab a drink after having walked quite a distance. The Cricketers pub was close by so I decided to pay it a visit. I got my drink and sat down in the front bar to relax. The pub was quite busy with locals as well as people eating. Good to see people supporting local village pubs.

Lovely little local feel, nicely decorated and with great staff! The festive decorated pods were a very nice touch. 3 of us had a lovely time. You get loads for your money too, so super valur for money! The only reason I gave 4 for food and not 5 was the vegetarian main, whilst it was very lovely, it was the only veggie option other than a pizza. Sticky toffee pudding was a treat!

We wanted a light bite, so we all chose from their BAR Snacks Menu having first quizzed the very helpful member of staff as to how big the portions were! 3 of us chose fish and chips while the 4th member of our party had squid with a side potion of fries. The food was delicious, hot and well presented. 2 of us decided to have a dessert, but what a shame that there was no choice in the sizes of the desserts, which were colossal, and although delicious, we would much preferred to have been able to choose smaller portions with perhaps a coffee or tea as part of the deal.

My favourite pub in Redbourn by far, extremely welcoming staff and warm welcome from the owners if they are about, very involved and you can feel it in the atmosphere and the food, it's all very friendly, Delicous food, my vegan friends said that their vegetarian roast and burger were the best they'd ever had and I can vouch for the rest of the menu having eaten nearly everything of it! Love a little sandwich if you're not hungry or anything of the evening menu is a win. Beautiful restaurant if you want a less pub vibe, just book ahead if possible! And also a private venue room upstairs if you're a larger group or party, seriously would recommend a visit to this award winning country pub. Also very dog friendly!

Been going to this pub for 10 years without a disability blue badge! As soon as I arrived I was unwelcome and bullied for being disabled for parking on a double yellow line that I’m authorised to do so, then I was picked on for having a diesel car instead of an electric car after defending my disability I was told that my attitude wasn’t welcome after explaining why I’m disabled I was asked to prove my disability by the owner of the pub I asked to be left alone to finish my pint in peace and leave without feeling bullied and intimidated by customers, staff and the owner of this business. I’m gay too so obviously homophobic I suggest avoiding this business and go somewhere else! As a market research interviewer (mystery shopper) I’m Disgusted at the attitude, discrimination and homophobia at the cricketers at Redbourn the owner of this business should be ashamed of himself He shouldn’t be running a pub his Hospitality & customer service are shocking to say the least and he needs retraining to be customer focused. I won’t be recommending I’ll be telling everyone how shallow they are to pick on a gay disabled man

Stopped after a bike ride. Was pleased to see nice ales but when it came to the burger… it was £19(!!!!) and consisted of the driest patty imaginable, a soggy piece of back bacon and some cheese.

Lovely location but oh my goodness what a disappointment. Expensive to say the least and my bar snack was rubbish . Better sandwich from the co op. Estrella £6.40 a pint BLT on thin ( very thin) white bread but it was toasted so presumably stale white bread bought from the local shop. Just ordinary thin sliced bread with a small leaf salad and nachos not crisps. Very poor and at £7.95 I could have got a better sandwich from the co op. I’ve had Sunday lunch here and it was quite good albeit very pricey but this was nothing short of rubbish. If you want to toast the bread then put it on the menu or get some proper bread! Thin white is not good. The bar person was apologetic but that was that. Strange place

We had high hopes for this tucked away village pub but none of us could really garner enthusiasm during the course of our meal. I am sure this little pub has great potential, however. It was not busy at all...1/4 full but the food service was slow. We got the impression that meals were being cooked per one person per one table at a time, and below the standard we would expect for a simple pub meal. Salt snd pepper squid was over cooked intead of being lightly golden. Fish pie was dry and the leafy greens served were not cooked and inedible. Atmosphere lacking any warmth. We also agree from previous comments, that this pub is overpriced. Overall disappointed and we won't return.
