We took my wife's mum there for her 88th birthday. The staff were fantastic. The lamb shank was excellent. When the deserts came out her desert came out the large plate had " Happy Birthday" in chocolate on it. What a fantastic thoughtful idea She was so surprised. Will be back soon. Thank you for making her evening super.

AVOID AT ALL COSTS!! I stayed in room 14 which has a refrigeration unit strapped to the outside wall!!!!! which kicked in throughout the night, I tried drowning out the hum with whale sounds at 3am, didn’t work!! The lad on the reception didn’t offer an apology but did offer a discount, but as I wasn’t paying, I explained I wouldn’t benefit as it was a work trip, nothing else was offered. I was left exhausted for a tough days work. Not what anyone should expect from a hotel situated in such an affluent town.

Pros: Our waitress, whose name we unfortunately didn’t catch, was an absolute delight. She was attentive, friendly, and overall excellent in managing our needs and orders. Even my one-year-old was quite taken with her. The food was served quickly, and the quality was consistently high. The atmosphere was pleasant, and the space was generously laid out. Cons: It was a bit on the dark side, and the lighting could definitely be improved. The portion sizes were somewhat smaller than expected.

The Kings arms is a great place to visit, wonderful old architecture, good drinks, good service and great food. We had nice drinks in the bar and then ate in the restaurant. The food was good (great menu) and price point was fair for what we received. The Kings arms is 100% worth a visit for drinks or food.

Teresa and James looked after our table of 8 so well, they were both so friendly and attentive. Being used to Brighton/London I never would have thought that Berko would have been a good place for bottomless brunch but genuinely the best one we've been to.

We waited an age for a simple bread starter to arrive. ( I think the chap in the grill had forgotten). Then another age for the mains. Gave up on ordering dessert. Maybe it was just a hot day or it s a Monday but the service was poor and I resent a service charge added to the bill when it is so poor. You would think in the current financial climate that the staff would try harder.

I attended The Kings Arms with the family for Sunday lunch. The food was absolutely amazing. I am Gluten Free, but there was a huge range of options for me. I went for the Roast Beef, and hands down it was one of the best roasts ever. My sister also prefers to eat Vegetarian, but again, they had a huge selection which looked great. The atmosphere was lovely, and the service was excellent. Highly recommend.

Went for lunch after a long time here, for the price they scored low; dirty beer glasses, still a fruit fly problem near the bar, panino sandwich was very good, shame they can’t serve clean glasses and then charge service on a drinks only tab when no table service is provided, and then you’re asked if you weren’t happy with the service when asking for a refund as didn’t expect service charge on drinks only order…paying service for pulling a pint!

I think this is best pub in Berkhamsted. The bar / restaurant split means you can come for any occasion and drinks are fairly priced. Alcohol free beer on tap is always a plus. Food is also great.

3 for brunch. One tea pot turned up without lid. Surely they have other tea pots? Nice tea though. Gluten free bread completely inedible . Was left completely and no one asked why. Vegetarian breakfast more expensive than full English. Seriously what’s that all about? And don’t blame it on the teaspoon size dollop of avo! And tastes like it’s been cooked next to or even on top of the meat. Marco Pierre couldn’t even make a mushrooms taste like that without cooking it with the meat! Underwear and outline of buttocks show when staff member adding logs to fire. Not needed at brunch time. Cleared away one glass from table after we had finished. Staff member just walked away and vanished leaving payment machine on bar for last person to pay. Had to ask another member of staff for receipt. Lack of attention to detail? Or just lack of attention….

We came to the Kings Arms as we thought it would be warm and toasty with the log fire and everything. The fire was on, but it didn’t feel like there was much other heating on. I sat on the bench and touched the radiator behind which was on but very low. Even with the fire on in front of us it was too cold to stay too long so we headed next door to the Crown.

The venue was really good and we anticipated a good time but sadly this was not to be. The starters for two were good but for two of us no so the tomato bruschetta turned out to be mostly raw halves of cherry tomatoes on toast and a portion of olives were mainly black olives (only 4 green) and the black olives were musty and really left a bad after taste. The main course were as follows Pizza, which was nice but not special, gammon egg and chips which was salty gammon, overcooked egg and chips and cottage pie with aged beef containing little meat. This was mentioned to the waiter but shrugged off. The bills. with two gin and tonics (one a double) a tonic and a bottle of house wine came to just under £200 which was wildly overpriced. When I asked for a bottle of house red, normally a cheap option I was told that they do not have a house red but had a Malbec which I accepted. Had I known it was £37.50 I would have refused. My suggestion is avoid this restaurant or have your wits about you. Not exactly a relaxing experience.

The Staff are what makes this place special - there are some who have been around for a while, whilst also some new faces. Everyone is extremely polite, and genuinely cares about you having a good time. It’s worth mentioning that they are AMAZING with allergies - I have more than one allergy, and they always look after me very well, which is rare. Most places just say “best if you avoid this and have a plain chicken breast etc” - not once had this comment. They go back and forth, check food over and over and make sure that they can prepare the best (and safe) food for me. A massive thank you to all the staff, your efforts are very much appreciated. I have been coming to the Kings Arms with my family (and Goldie 🐕) since 2013, and will continue for the foreseeable future.

Thought lets go for a quick pizza and beer on a Saturday afternoon. Ordered at the bar, sat next to the fireplace which so needed cleaning up, the place felt very tired and our table was sticky. Two drinks and a pizza to share, pizza arrived without cutlery then as we started eating discovered it being less than luke warm, cold pretty much. Mrs H took the pizza back minus two slices for it only to be returned 2 minutes later on a clean plate which clearly went back in the oven for 1 minute and was still cold (minus the two slices). The pizza had flavour, but cold second time again, instead of making it from scratch is beyond me. The premium you pay for the Kings Arms for drinks/food certainly was not worth this trip and we won't be rushing back. If I hadn't paid upfront I would of refused to pay for such a sloppy meal.

We went in to the pub for a drink last night, pub was not busy maybe 10 other drinkers in the bar area. Bar area was really dirty tables full of old food plates and every table had something dirty on so couldn’t sit anywhere. 3 bar guys stood behind the bar so they had staff to sort the tables out pub just looks tired and dirty.

Had a room in the main pub (rooms 1-3) which was fantastic. Couldn’t fault the room in any way. There was an extremely comfy king size 4 poster bed, TV, tea and coffee facilities, separate large bath and shower, dressing gowns and toiletries. We both had the full English breakfast in the morning and it was great. There was some noise from the pub (Saturday night), but it didn’t deter from our stay. We both enjoyed our stay immensely and wouldn’t hesitate to come back. It felt like a real treat and was luxurious.

I visited the restaurant on a Sunday afternoon with my sister and boyfriend. We enjoy the menu that the Oakman Inn’s chains of pub/restaurants offer so we thought we’d visit the Berkhamstead’s branch to see what it was all about. I’m very easy going when dining out at restaurants and I work within the public myself so I always find myself cheerful and friendly with staff, waitresses and waiters and this is how it should be always. Especially during these trying times. However, today might’ve been the worst experience I’ve had with a waitress/waiter. I’m not one to leave a snotty review but I was honestly so stunned today with how I was spoken to, sister and boyfriend both shocked too. I won’t reveal the name of said waitress but I was in disbelief at how one of the waitresses spoke to me today, I’m 22, a young girl and the tone of voice she displayed with me was aggressive and blameful. When it came to presenting us with our meals, she had brought over the incorrect meal for myself and I stated to her the correct meal I had ordered and she insisted that I had said to her it was the dish she presented. When I proceeded to let her know I’m fully aware and able to definitely assure her of the meal I stated I wanted she proceeded to argue back with me that it was my fault and basically accused me of lying about what I had ordered… I felt very belittled and upset with her tone of voice and approach. The fault was on her end for not double checking our order once taking it or reading it back to us like a waitress should do to avoid mishaps like today. Her words “no you ordered the pollo picante that’s what I had written down I heard you say picante” I responded with “no I ordered the pollo bianco pizza” which I pointed to on the menu whilst ordering. I’m unsure why she was so adamant I’d ordered something I quite clearly didn’t want, it makes no sense at all and it was just a silly mistake on her end which she needed to admit to instead of trying to argue with a girl younger than her. Embarrassing. I am still in disbelief at how she spoke to me I came away very upset and shocked. Maybe she was having a bad day but women to women, her tone was very bitchy and aggressive and I couldn’t ever imagine talking to a customer like that at my work. Sometimes you make mistakes and that’s fine, we all do it, but to then aggressively blame the customer is not on at all. Apart from this the food was lovely but I won’t be trying this oakman chain again unfortunately. I hope everyone else visiting has a better experience as I know this place is awesome none the less

Visited for Sunday lunch with friends as they’re local and thought it worth trying out together.Lovely open fire in lobby bar where the atmosphere looked relaxed and warm.We moved down through to the restaurant where it looked rather quiet ... soon things changed! It got very very busy ... and very hot ... and noisy.They have quite an extensive menu including pizzas cooked in their own pizza oven (we tried their garlic flatbread to start as a nibble and it was thin, crispy and very good).Our friends’ mains (swordfish and pollo piccante) were good but our veggie dishes - portobello mushroom and no pollo pie: too much potato topping and then accompanied weirdly by more roast potatoes!!?? and my beetroot falafel burger: rather greasy/burned falafels and very dry over-charred bun, plus weird combo of sauces, was quite unappetizing and indigestible.Would recommend keeping menu simpler but doing everything well rather then trying to be all things to all people and doing some things badly.Maybe we were unlucky with our menu choices ... but it was Sunday lunch on a cold winters day and we didn’t want .... another salad!

Following an aborted breakfast trip to the Old Mill, we headed to the Kings Arms instead. I can’t fault it at all.Whereas the Old Mill greeted with a disgusting smell of the toilets, the Kings Arms had the delightful scent of the open fire and cooked bacon. The waitress was really friendly and took my request for 2 pots of tea in good stead (so I didn’t need to return to the bar to re-order) and as for the food itself....Delicious, meaty sausages, well-cooked and tasty bacon. A crispy hash brown, home made baked beans, a hearty portabello mushroom and two poached eggs (ever so slightly overcooked but everything else was so perfect).Will absolutely be returning very soon!

This is a lovely venue for a nice laid back lunch. We visited here today for lunch and sat in the light and airy back of the restaurant area by the courtyard. It was lovely in the sunshine. The waitress who I’ve seen working in there before was very polite and helpful. She knew the menu very well. We ordered our avocado, smoked salmon and poached eggs and it did not take long to arrive. It was delicious. The eggs cooked to perfection. Afterwards we had coffees. The atmosphere was very pleasant, we did not feel rushed and it was the perfect place to have a pit stop for lunch. The Kings Arms is very charming and in the winter I particularly love to sit by the large fireplace at the front in one of the comfy chairs.

Lovely restaurant, food was delicious and would have got a 5 star review had the service not let them down.

We went mid afternoon so not busy at all. Our drinks order was taken and then food. I had sea bass for main which was really dry, hubby had fish and chips which looked great. I had a brownie for pud which was really nice then hubby was waiting to order a coffee, the bill and our cab. We waited, waited,p and waited then ended up calling the waiter over to request or bill and forget the coffee. We then had to call again to ask to pay it and get a a machine over and the final but just dragged, so sorry no tip. If they were busy we would understand more but sorry no acceptable

Visited with a group of friends recently. Agreed table we had reserved wasn't. Thursday night and only one well-meaning but fairly inexperienced gentleman serving at the bar. Despite long waits and queues building up, none of the other apparently less busy staff seemed willing or able to step in and share the load - was there a manager present? Didn't seem to be much sense of urgency or interest in clients. Would have let this go, but got similar impression when dropped in for coffee with different friends several days later. Shame, as it is good space and well-located.

Decided to visit for some food this evening. We were told the kitchen closed at 10:30 - we arrived at 10:00 so plenty of time to choose. The waiter was most unwelcoming and it was obvious he was not happy we had arrived later in the evening. I suspect he thought he could have an early night. Not a good start. I would have left but my friend wanted to eat.

My self and my partner enjoyed food at the restaurant for both breakfast and our evening meal, and I must say we had no complaints what so ever! The food was very tasty and cooked very well, the service was also very good! We would recommend to anyone!

I visited the pub with some friends on a Saturday night and was greeted by a bouncer who wasn’t particularly welcoming. Went inside for some drinks and sat at a table.

Busy Saturday night, waited almost an hour for a table we had pre-booked. Should enforce the time limits given to tables at busy periods. They did however treat us well when we did eventually get seated and threw in some free drinks and starters as well. Great food, would return but perhaps on a quieter evening.

So, Mrs Beef (a staunch advocate of "Berko" hostelries) was keen to show me the tamer side of British culture, as I recently returned from a European Exile. We chose the Kings Arms to "re-pop my cherry", as it were.

Came here with the Family as a little catch up and to grab some lunch. I was surprised when we walked in, and i saw how nice it was inside. I was expecting it to be the same old pub like anywhere else round the country, but boy was i surprised. We were seated near the pizza oven, which obviously made me get a pizza! The menu is different, but VERY nice! For starter we had haloumi fingers which were LOVELY! And for the main i had the pizza, which was cooked to perfection. Overall a very good place.

The service here is often poor but particularly bad this visit. We were brought a menu, a high chair and queued at the bar to order drinks and a kid’s meal to be told the kitchen was too busy to take orders. So we had to leave with an upset child. Why not tell us when we arrived that they weren’t serving or make an exception for a single child’s meal?

Friendly service and a good selection on the menu. The sausage and mash was delicious. Huge meaty sausages, served with fresh vegetables. My husband particularly liked the gravy. The roast beef was a huge plate of food. Tasty fresh vegetables and plenty of roasties, the meat was just pink but very tender.

Food is good and friendly enough. Been there a lot of times now as it's local and convenient. When putting an order in via the app it takes ages for them to receive it. Also sometimes (10% of the time) I get home and something is missing, it's not disastrous but I want what I ordered

Best takeaway iv'e ever had in ages, I had a chicken burger, chips, fried chicken. SO CHEAP, since inflation has gone up this is a very cheap takeaway for your family and friends, Family meal for 6 people, You get 4 chicken burgers, 4 fries medium, 4 pieces of fried chicken, 6 strips, 1.5L bottle of fizzy drink. FOR GUESS WHAT 18.99£ brilliant takeaway better than kfc, Suprisingly across the road. 10/10 please try.
