Good local pub But they should dim the lights a bit after a certain hour and try to improve the evening atmosphere

Been coming here for years. It has come a long way under the current management and the staff are generally friendly. It does regular good local live music and charity events which are free and a good laugh. As a local pub it's great. Only downside is on football days it can get a bit rowdy. One of the best pubs in Welwyn/Welwyn North. ...toilets could do with fixing...

We booked a table for 4.30. On arrival we were told chef was on his break and kitchen wouldn't open until 5pm Happy the chef has a break but why allow us to book a table? We would have made a different decision about booking here. Food was nice, probably prepacked and nothing wild to shout about. But it was nicely presented and plentiful All parts of the pub - bat and restaurants had a large screen which was very loud. OK in bar but if you wanted to talk over dinner we were definitely in competition with the big screen!! We asked for it to be a little quieter but that never happened.

The food here is absolute lovely. The atmosphere on the other hand…. I have never felt so uncomfortable in my own home town than coming into this pub. I feel like if you are not a regular in the pub the staff all stare at you with a horrible look like you’ve tried to burn down the pub. I have spoken to multiple people who have gone and said they have felt the exact same way. Unless you live in this pub, prepare to be stared at the whole time you’re there by the staff and the regulars…

Large modern spacious pub. Liked the fresh roses on the table. Good prices and value for money and friendly staff. What is not acceptable in a Green King pub is a toilet cubicle with a fist through the door with licentious text and no way to lock the door. How are you supposed to defecate in private!!! just not acceptable

I think the chef are watching football match. I wait for 1 hr for some simple food. My daughter's sauage should be with gravy. No gravy. When i ask for gravy the shop keeper said it charges. While the menu mentioned that it is with gravy. I finally got the gravy but the whole meal is rubbish. Food poor quality Service rubbish Not recommended.

Service was so bad. Food came 1 hour after it ordered on the app . Fish and Chips were not hot nor crispy. When we chased at 50min , we were told 1 and half hour waiting is normal time and we were blamed placing order in app was the other reason to delay further . Kid’s meal come without gravy and waiter said it has to add extra fee, but menu said gravy included.

The lady who served at the bar, although incredibly busy, took the time to pay attention to detail and worked so quickly in order to keep up with the volume of customers. She really impressed me. She had blonde hair worn in a pony tail. Friday 20th October.

Poor customer service. I complained about my food and waitress pulling it apart, saying it is green king spec, so it is fine and arguing with me. Dry chicken wings, mac and cheese is just pasta with melted cheddar on top, no creamy sauce or any taste. Waitress was rude and squished my mac and cheese around and squished my chicken with her hand, saying it wasn't dry. Waitress then asked me if I was a chef. Do not go here, awful.

Sadly this was a very poor experience. The pub is extremely cluttered and feels very dated. The accommodation is more like workers accommodation with prices of a nice pub. I the room was cold and cluttered and warned out.
