The Gate in Three Rivers

Impromptu dinner with family and friends. A lovely Sunday roast, excellent quality, cooking and presentation. Sam and Karol provided us with superb service. Thank you for a great evening.

Good sized restaurant / bar with plenty of seating both inside and out. The staff were friendly, welcoming and attentive throughout our visit. The food quality was high, portion sizes large and prices reasonable given the quality. The wine list was varied and priced fairly. With plenty of free on site parking, we will definitely be back.

A fantastic roast by Sam and Karol. Lovely atmosphere and great food. All of the food was delicious and well cooked will definitely come back.

Another enjoyable lunch with my Mum at The Gate. Service is so kind and attentive and the atmosphere is warm and lively. Mum’s fish and chips was as good as usual but I’m not a fan of the new accompaniments to the steak dishes. Bring back the watercress and onion rosti and ditch the slimy exotic’ mushrooms please.

Lovely food, atmosphere buzzy and comfortable. Extra shout out for our waitress, Izzy. She was so helpful in both menu assistance and our 6 year old well behaved guest. We all praised her cheerfulness and efficiency, a great ambassador for your company.

Excellent service -thank you Izzie. Lovely food and we really enjoyed ourselves. Great atmosphere in the restaurant too

Izzy was an amazing help and dealt with the allergies amazing and did very well with dealing with the drinks and the orders

Four of us went for an evening meal staff were great as was the food the waitress that served us was very pleasant and could not do enough to help us her name was rayna well done

I was pleased to have chosen The Gate.for a special Sunday lunch with old friends who had traveled a long way to visit my elderly Mum. The atmosphere is great and the service is very professional. We had a great meal. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed the food. The roast is very well executed and the ribeye steak is top notch.

We had a wonderful lunch all made better by the service we received from Liam!!! Very friendly and extremely accommodating

Excellent service. The gentlemen who served is, Liam, was brilliant. Nothing was too much and service was fast. Thank you.

Had a lovely meal and catch up with my friend at the gate today. Food was superb and Liam was our waiter, he was very observant and friendly. Will be returning soon

The food here is very nice! We shared some starters and a pizza and everyone was happy. Does get busy so I would recommend booking.

I've now visited this pub for dinner three times since Dec 2023 with both friends and family. On all occasions we've sat in the bar area as I had my dog and the food has been excellent including the Sunday roast. Service was good, special shout to Katie who looked after us yesterday. On one occasion the tables were a bit sticky and could have been cleaned better. Lovely outdoor space with heaters. Will return

delicious food and fabulous service! me and my friends had a wonderful experience at the gate, we were made to feel welcome and the extensive food and drink menu was excellent to choose from. will be returning!

Lovely visit to The Gate Post-Covid restrictions. We were served by Amy who was an absolute delight, the food was great and the service prompt. Will definitely be back!

What has happened to this pub?! A ridiculous interpretation of the regulations, which is just downright unpleasant! Had to book 10 days in advance just to have a drink. Had to sit in the restaurant to have a drink because they don’t do tables of 5 in the bar because they can’t move the furniture around - I mean really?! The service was appalling! Waited 20 minutes to be served our first drink and then had to go begging for the next one. We live a few meters from the The Gate but would rather walk 15 minutes in the rain to the The Black Horse! They are relaxed, compliant and welcoming.

Lovely place, food is amazing, service is great and Gary the manager is very welcoming. Definitely would recommend

Had such a great visit to the Gate yesterday that I had to finally write a review, the service was amazing as usual and the atmosphere was really good. I’ll be back soon

Frozen food, average presentation, abysmal service and management do not seem to care. We will NEVER return here ever again and I advise everyone else to AVOID this want to be ‘premium’ Gastropub. Appearances can be deceiving. Although this pub looks very nice and upmarket it is just another average frozen food eatery managed by people that are just there because. The so called general manager just brushed off our issues with a don’t care attitude. Appalling behaviour, especially in such an upmarket Hugh selling area. Keep your money and spend it at a better venue.

I visited earlier this year. The service was friendly, the food reasonable. A typical gastro pub in terms of atmosphere.

surprisingly good food, didnt expect it to be bad but was very happy with all 3 courses. deals on prosecco too for thursdays and fridays what more could you want?

Went for dinner this evening with my daughter and a friend and her daughter. Didn't realise you need to register your car at the bar within 15 minutes otherwise you'll get a £40 parking ticket and only realised this when I went to order my food and was informed of the car registration process by a rather churly girl behind the bar who's response was 'there's signs everywhere' When the food arrived after waiting 40 minutes it was cold and there was a grand total of 12 chips on my plate. My friend ordered the vegan cauliflower curry which consisted of 3 florets of curry in a yellow sauce with a sad looking salad. Portions very poor, very overpriced and would NOT recommend dining here at all.

Visited here on a sunny day, the exterior and interior both are so modern, bright and clean. The staff are very accommodating and very friendly. The food was delicious as well. I particularly enjoyed the tempura mushrooms and my favourite, the golden chocolate bomb for dessert. I will be telling all my friends and will be coming back soon :)

When we moved to Rickmansworth, this was our favourite restaurant in the area. We went here last week and whilst the food was good, the portion sizes were ridiculously small. I had squid to start and there were about 5 pieces. I had duck salad for the main course and this was equally disappointing and I had the equivalent of a tablespoon of duck and the rest was salad. The waiter was really miserable and bordering on rude and if he had asked us whether we were happy with our meal at any point, we would have told him what we thought. Very disappointing and we won't be returning.

Nice local pub and restaurant and very good value.Ladies lunching, family's/couple dining with a nice pub scene. Good car park and garden.

We booked at The Gate for a Sunday dinner. Table was for 4 and we were celebrating a Birthday with Family. It is not that often we all get together so we selected The Gate as it is local and we have been plenty of times before.The past 2 times i have been i have noticed that the food is consistent but the service is getting worse and this time felt strong enough about it to write on trip advisor.For a sunday night the restaurant was quiet and i counted only about 24 people eating and 2 waitress on the floor throughout. The drinks we ordered seemed to take forever to come and our starters of tuna carpaccio took easily 25-30 minutes to arrive.Once we had finished it took a further 15 minutes to get a waitress to come over and clear the starters. We decided to order more drinks at this time which did not arrive for a further 15 -20 minuites along with our main course. At this time i was so hungry that i could of eaten the table.my partner had the duck and waffle which was ok but the actual waffle was like cardboard? I has the Wagu burger which was ok but I'm sure its is low grade Wagu beef because it just tasted like a normal burger? After we were finished the waitress eventually came back and cleared away the main course. We decided just to order a round of coffees as we honestly could not be bothered to wait for any desserts we might of ordered.I have been here a number of times over the years and i truly hope the Management sort out the staffing issue or do some training with the staff. What was once a great venue has gone down hill massively.I am sure we will be back but we will probably find another venue to celebrate our family birthdays in the future.Oh and might want to take the easter promotional cards off the table? Easter is long gone.

We have just returned from the Gate (14 Jan) and were so unhappy that I had to write the review straight away to warn others.My partner asked me to meet him at the bar today after work, thought we would try somewhere new. He had been waiting for a table for about half an hour and, I joined him and we both had a couple of drinks and patiently waited for a table to become free. Luckily, a table just became free about 45 minutes later and as I went to secure the table, then the guy behind the bar (blonde beard) rudely came over to us and told us that he had secured the table for another couple. I asked where it mentioned that a bar table can be reserved, he said it wasn't reserved and laughed saying, he decided to hold it for the couple! We were told to leave the table and another couple from the bar that we had not notice arrive before were suddenly given the table!We found it very offensive and could only think that it was a racist gesture. I will be looking to take this matter further! We are regulars at many of the local places there and have never experienced such rudeness.Disgusted with this experience and needless to say we won't be going back. Ruined our evening and left us very disheartened!

Over the years we have been here countless times and in the main it has always been quite good. This time it was just about ok, but you wouldn't rush back.Upon our arrival we were greeted by an enthusiastic young man and seated at our table. This chap was the only one who had any experience at all, the remainder of the staff were all there for the first time, (or at least that was how it appeared) and simple questions about the food led to looks of panic in peoples eyes! The original man being the only one who could open a bottle of wine!Food was just about ok, burger 8/10, steak 4/10, duck salad 5/10, chips cold. First choice of puddings and main courses were all gone..........pudding Crème Brule 2/10. Wine list very good, service frightened but present, room far too hot and seats too small for a fat bloke. Training and sparkle required.

Haven't been here for a while & now I remember why.We have been waiting 45 mins for our meal & it's still not here.I feel it's unacceptably slow. We won't be returning here..
