We had a lovely cosy Sunday pint in The Harpenden Arms, it’s had a recent refurb and is lovely inside. Ethan behind the bar was really friendly, he deserves his food and drink recs in the menu!

Best roast in.harpenden. It never disappoints. The cuts of beef are soft and has flavour. The veg the the York pud all amazing and they even have cranberry sauce. Not everyone does. After a late Saturday night this is the perfect pick me up!. With a tropical pale ale it's great

We arrived to a buzzing atmosphere - lots of chatter and laughter. We were seated and received our meals quickly - despite being told that one of the Chefs was in a car accident and that we'd have a short delay! The food was lovely. The wine, of course .. Our waiter, Ian, was very kind and helpful. So pleased, we're going again in a couple of weeks!

This pub is on the pricey side compared to other locals in the town. However the service is good and the staff are friendly. I stopped here for a drink and tapas. I sat in the bar area and not the dining area. They actually had their heating on which was lovely as it was a chilly day. Many pubs have radiators but don't use them. I like atmosphere here it feels like a busy at times pub with a yuppie feel!

We booked in advance for a party of 8 adults and 2 small children. The service was friendly and attentive. The food however was very poor. We ordered 5 roasts all of which turned up luke warm or cold. The vegetables were very measly. I'm not one for large portions, I much prefer quality over quantity but 1 small carrot, a table spoon of cauliflower cheese and 1 small roast potato is ridiculous. We informed the waiter the food was cold and it was taken away to be warmed. 20 minutes later and we were still waiting at which point I approached the bar to ask for the manager and was informed he was in the cellar and would be up to speak to us. Another almost 10 minutes passed and finally the manager arrived to discuss. The food just arrived as we were pointing out the issues. The food was warm, not hot but by this point it was almost one and a half hours since we had ordered. The beef was poor to average, the dish under seasoned. The leeks were undercooked and the gravy watery. Even though the manager did offer a discount I would rather have good quality and pay for it. The only silver lining was the pinot noir was surprisingly decent.

This pub made me and my partner feel uncomfortable. He arrived before me and ordered himself and I a drink, but to be told he would not be served both drinks as they needed to see my ID. We are both 25. This left him awkwardly waiting for me to arrive before being served, even though he had his own ID! I think its strange to think a 25 year old would be with anyone under the age of 18 firstly, although I so understand needing to ID customers who look young but it just wasn’t a warm welcome to be immediately ID’d at the bar when it was a Sunday evening and dead quiet! The lagers are extremely expensive too.

We went to this pub after a glorious walk in the the Harpenden countryside. I know I needed a well deserved drink after that. I ordered a large pint of Peroni for £6:45 and nice and chilled. They also do a smaller pint if you prefer. The atmosphere on a Saturday night was lively and the woman bathroom’s are super! The decor was great and I liked that they add hand cream to go with the hand wash. I only put a star down, because I have not tried the food. But yes if I’m in the area again I would not mind going here again.

Visited with friends for a pre-ordered Christmas set menu. I arrived first and had to prompt a barman who was staring into space after serving one customer, while a lady before me and I were ignored so I could be directed to our table. No offer of a drink so had to make a return visit to the bar. The meal was slightly above average (great roast potatoes!) but expensive and we had to wait over five minutes for the waitress to find salt and pepper. Then cranberry sauce, which should have been on the table already - as it was all set up beautifully for us. Some of the group ordered coffees, which arrived one by one in ten minute intervals so took ages and one was undrinkable and taken off the bill. We had asked for floater coffees at first but were told there was no cream, which seemed like an excuse as the desserts came with cream! So overall OK but I won't be returning. There are much better establishments in Harpenden.

A total disaster! If I could give a zero star review on TripAdvisor then I would! After a morning of house-hunting in Harpenden to move to the area, we had booked into the pub for Sunday lunch to celebrate my 30th birthday. We were sat towards the back of the restaurant which was very cold, despite the fact we asked to have the heating turned up. We had to wait 50 mins for our starters - which was focaccia/charcuterie board/tomato soup. So 2 cold starters and soup. 50 minutes! We then waited about 45 minutes - and no sign of our main courses. We had been in the restaurant nearly 2 hours at this point. No other tables had food at their tables. We asked the manager at the bar about our food and were told the food was “literally in the lift on the way up” to our table, so went and waited. Another 10 mins passes. We ask again… “it’s just coming now, 1-2 minutes”. Another 5 minutes passes. Manager then comes over to say the food will be “about another 5-10 minutes” but the moment had passed and our 30th birthday celebration ruined. So we got the bill and left. The manager, when we complained, was extremely combative and not once apologised. Instead, he blamed “a function upstairs and a function downstairs”. If you’re THAT busy then DONT ACCEPT BOOKINGS IN THE RESTAURANT. Incredibly rude staff - and so disappointing - given the celebration and that we had hoped to find a new “local” after our day of house-hunting. My 30th birthday lunch - because of this appalling restaurant and staff - ended up being a sausage sandwich in Simmons. Happy birthday to me!! 😡 Avoid, avoid, avoid!!!

It suffers in the summer with no beer garden, but in the winter is a great place to while away a few hours with a decent pint or three. And a word of praise for the staff- always upbeat and friendly.

You have to be clairvoyant to anticipate when this place is open. Don’t rely on their food either, despite being within 100 metres of 3 supermarkets and a bakery they’re almost always out of bread. Fullers should hang their heads in shame. If you’re passing, keep on walking.

Our daughter and son-in-law had (weeks prior to our arrival) booked a Christmas meal for six of us, and paid a £60 deposit. A high table opposite the bar had been reserved for us, but nothing had been done in readiness to make it appear welcoming or Christmas like, although, when we had finished our meal, a man appeared with a box of Christmas crackers, asking “Do you want crackers” and three were put on the table, which by then was a pointless gesture. After we had been seated for about ten minutes, a young man appeared. He was holding a piece of paper and told us, casually, that we could not have the meal we ordered, and would have to order from the (usual) menu, but as there were not many meals available, he had written down the options, which included a couple of starters, a couple of deserts and main courses of burgers or fish and chips. No apology or gesture of any kind was made. The establishment knew, in the morning, that they were not able to fulfil their obligation, but no attempt was made to pass on this information, until we were seated at 14:00 hrs expecting the three course Christmas meal which had been booked. When our family went to the bar to complain that what was on offer was not acceptable, a member of staff became aggressive and said he was not happy that they were “insulting our food”, and rudely stated that there was nothing that could be done to make the situation a little more palatable for our party. It was too late to book somewhere else and we had no option but to order. One burger was sent back to the kitchen because it was so unpalatable, but the other meals were eaten/part eaten as we were all extremely hungry but the burgers were poor quality , as was the fish. The portions of chips portions of chips were small and, clearly, any opportunity to make additional effort for us, had been overlooked. After the meal, a further complaint was made, and this time a manager came and made a suitable gesture. This came far too late and, because none of the available options were made to attempt to acknowledge and compensate for the blatant failure to fulfil their obligation to existing customers, who had paid a deposit in good faith, I would advise that no one books a ‘special’ meal at The Harpenden Arms in the future.

Great place to go to get some food or drinks. Staff are very friendly and there is plenty of space for seating. Located in a nice area too.

Was told the kitchen was shut... only to be given a bowl of chips for free 15 minutes later! Very friendly staff and lovely atmosphere. The chips were great and prices reasonable. Will be sure to go back again soon.

Sorry it has taken such a long time to post this review, but I would like to say a big thank you for my Birthday surprise in your function room way back in May. I want to especially mention the manager who went to great lengths to ensure we had a great evening. It was his idea to take a group pic at the end (and even produced a step ladder to do it)! A great reminder of a very special evening. Linda

Lovely little bakery for hot food as well as bread and pastries. Outdoor heaters and a picturesque seating area overlooking the river with ducks and swans. Friendly services.

We go to the Prae Wood Arms on a regular basis for sunday lunch and we have never been disappointed. Food is always delicious the staff and service are excellent. We really could not fault the whole Experiance. We are going again with our son and daughter in law on Boxing Day for lunch this will be our 4th year returning, I think speaks for itself.

Stopped serving food at least 2 hours earlier than advertised online so don’t bet on being fed here nor being able to bring food in. Staff is absolutely so so lovely but manager not really the vibe, kinda feel bad people have to work for him. A fun pub but definitely better in the area.

Was there for 3 minutes and was asked 3 times by try bouncer when we were going to order drinks. Very uncomfortable vibe had to leave.
