The Mulberry Tree in Stevenage

Great service, good food. Staff are really friendly and helpful. Wide range of drink beverages and great deals especially on the shots!

Lovely place, with a great atmosphere. With Live music every Thursday-Saturday. The staff are very accommodating. My favourite venue for sure!

We went in today at like 8 and the man behind the bar was really rude to my friend, i understand you’re serving someone but they weren’t stood at the bar and it wasn’t clear that he was busy so when she asked for a drink and he snapped at her it was unnecessary.

Fabulous food as per usual. Accommodating to what I requested as of allergy . Cannot fault the service and quality of food .

Went in for lunch with my friend, Adam was on the bar and was so lovely and helpful, food was delicious as well! Will definitely come back!

My patience has run thin with this place. I think it suffers with some identity crisis - it's a pub, bar, restaurant, club and therefore does not excell at any. Food is naff, beer is flat, place is sticky....for some reason its more expensive than the rest of old town per drink. Admittedly garden is alright but let's not forget it is just a carpark converted during COVID to maintain profit. They never cared for it prior to this. For me, my final straw was the place denying entry to my brother for not being adequately dressed. What does this place think it is? I'm not sure it knows either. Joke of place with some form of misplaced vision of grandeur. I will say, the ladies who work here are SO lovely so they'll gain a star for that. But unfortunately even Coach & Horses is better than this riff raff of a pub.

4 of us dined from the Main Menu at lunchtime. All 4 meals were fantastic as was the service! This is at the top end of Greene King Menu's and worth every penny.

Just back from a lovely lunch with friends at the Mulberry Tree. Lovely, comfortable pub, and tasty food served piping hot. Experience made all the better by friendly and efficient service from Aidan. We will be back.

I did say on a previous review that I would come back and we did. It was fabulous again - my regular Sunday lunch place to go. Well done !!

Fantastic chicken burger others had steak pie which they enjoyed but couldnt finish as was really big..great place for a coffee..beer or meal. Stsff were friendly and polite

Great atmosphere. Love the music and the people, such a great place to spend time with old friends. Fantastic night out.

We often frequent The Mulberry Tree for an early evening mid week drink. On weekdays, soft music is played offering a relaxing atmosphere. This is by far the best pub in The Old Town Stevenage for its modern but rustic decor with a warm friendly welcome. They have a huge range of drink choices including wine, beer, cocktails & gin. The service is friendly and efficient. It is a little on the pricy side (hence the 4 stars) but you get what you pay for.

Tasty open sandwich. Nice coffee and a pint. Dan at the bar very friendly and understanding as my newly rescued dog was eager to explore my order ! Many many thanks again for being so understanding.

Went with family. Ordered Sunday roast x4 - was told they had run out of roast potatoes. Chips as a substitute. Waited 45 minutes for service and had to chase. The food was average. The whole experience could have been much better.

We visited on 24th December 2023 to kick off our Christmas celebrations with a meal out having read many reviews of The Mulberry Tree. Sadly, none of them mention that this is primarily a pub rather than a restaurant with a pub. The place is very small with a handful of tables dotted near the bar area. There is no obvious place to report to upon arrival and no one is forthcoming with information about the lack of table service and having to order at the bar. I appreciate it was a busy period but the food took over an hour to come and it was annoying having to get up to queue for drinks every time we wanted more. The queue for the bar and the food were one and the same. The food was OK but the experience was spoilt by being surrounded by groups standing around the bar either ordering or enjoying drinks. Sadly, we won’t be coming back.

Right ripoff!!! First drink (double vodka with coke) cost £6.40 then after an hour....the same drink cost £8.60!!! Dodgy stuff!!! Not going there again...... right ripoff!!!

Came for Sunday lunch for a birthday. I had the beef roast and it was excellent very tender and generous portions. Staff very helpful and just the right amount of attention.

Waiter was abrupt, didn’t make you feel welcome. Pub was cold. Food came out cold, no apology when he sent it back to kitchen to have it warmed up, ridiculously small amount of gravy served with meal. Dessert, again cold and tasted stale 😡

Wonderful evening, super food, fantastic staff Not over priced had our drinks replaced as they were accidentally taken when we were talking to friends on another table Really friendly staff can’t wait to come compliments to the management and staff

Popped in on the spur of the moment on a Sunday lunchtime. Decided to go for the Sunday roast, something we never tend to do as it can never compete with home cooked. We were very pleasantly surprised. We had the roast chicken which was...

Great spot for a night out, all the staff are very welcoming and friendly. It feels like a safe space.

Un superbe moment passé dans ce lieu charmant en ce beau dimanche ensoleillé, le personnel était aux petits soins, mention spéciale pour Leah et Jordan pour leur bonne humeur puis Rui pour sa délicieuse cuisine, je recommande fortement !!

Perfect evening. Food was spot on. Dan is just a great member of staff who was extremely helpful and is just a genuinely nice bloke. Booked for December and next weeks roast I am looking forward to

I had an amazing experience at The Mulberry Tree Pub! The food was exceptional, and Aiden provided top-notch service. The lively atmosphere and fantastic music made it a memorable night. Highly recommend!

We had a great night here. The staff were friendly and caring, especially Aiden. Food is also excellent, 10/10 highly recommend

Lovely evening catching up with best friends after a very busy summer. Aiden and Jack served us with great pub food and drinks ensuring we had the best service. We will be back!

We popped in the Mulberry tree on our way through as friends who live in Stevenage told us that the pub had improved somewhat since the new manager has taken over. The weather was really nice, so we sat in the garden which has had...

Visited this pub for the first time today and we were thoroughly entertained by listening to M&J Acoustic. We stayed for food and drinks and would definitely return again.

Did plan to go to the mulberry tree but hearing the acoustic guitar encouraged us in, what a lovely pub, it was buzzing with people. We had a drink then decided to have food, the flat iron steak was delicious and excellent value for money....

Bar area nice and clean, food and drink on offer was lovely, staff really polite.... Beer garden was amazing... we have visited a few times , and each time, it's been a lovely experience.

Tasty food and well priced. We had the tapas selection and would definitely have again. Friendly staff and good lively atmosphere.

Me and my boyfriend went to the mulberry tree, all of the staff were lovely including Kate and Leah who went above and beyond to create a warm, accepting environment. Kudos to the chefs for a great meal as well!

Came in for a quick pint, and all the staff were welcoming and friendly. Sarah really stuck out making great conversation and being a ray of sunshine! Would come again!

On a Sunday no matter what Sunday the staff decided unlike the 11pm website closing time that they will be closing 1 hr early as they want a early nite and so many upset people who travelled many miles to venture into pub and over...

We booked Xmas lunch at this pub based on the reviews it had received and we were very dissatisfied with the quality of the food. We have been to other pubs for Xmas and have had pleasant experiences as most establishments realize that it is...

Lovely Sunday afternoon visit. The food was tasty and quick - perfect with four young kids in tow! The staff were all really friendly and even the chef came out to check we were all enjoying our meal which I thought was a lovely touch!...

Went to the mulberry tree for a lovely meal and the steak and ale pie DID NOT disappoint!!! Was obviously made with care, and the staff were very friendly, checking in to make sure everything was okay, and was very nice all the way to...

Lovely hot meals and a nice pint at the Mulberry Tree in the old town Stevenage.Great service from Aidan and Sarah and a nice friendly atmosphere.

Stopped in for a last minute lunch date … the pub itself is beautiful, cosy and welcoming , the menu although small it is executed extremely well, portion sizes are more than ample , a feast for the eyes as well as the tum, seasoned...

10/10 would recommend to a friend. Kate and Aidan were both very friendly and provided great service!

Visited this pub as a group in late September for a drink and chat. We found it very convivial so decided to book a table in October for a group meal. Excellent choice as we had first class service, with good freshly prepared food and...

Really nice Sunday lunch, very filling and everything nice and hot. Well done all. Friendly staff and all hard working.

I came in for a drink and some food last night, wa very nice indeed. I had 3 plates which were great value for money, the houmous and flatbread was gorgeous and the halloumi was very well presented and the squid was well cooked, would...

Here to visit my son and staying at a hotel over the road.I Had a lovely chilled night with the hubby . relaxed and friendly atmosphere. Lovely attentive staff

Very friendly atmosphere, food was amazing, drinks even better. Adam was absolute gem, great service. Will be coming back!

Decided to visit for a last minute dinner . Lovely food . Decided to go back the week after .. food is just delicious. Staff are friendly and nice to talk to Sundays are definitely our day of visiting

We were celebrating a colleague leaving work so we were a large group of 15. We happily pre ordered our meal choices and arrived at 6:30 to start our food at 7pm. Starters came out with no problems. However, mains were a disaster and let...

Quite a nice ambience and feel to the place, however I ordered a double rum and coke which had way too much coke in it so it spoilt the taste and the glass could have doubled up as a vase plus the table I sat...

Service was good and the drinks are good value. Food was just okay. The triple cooked chips were not crispy and the way the food is served is poor. An oven stained tin with grease proof paper and the burger wrapped in foil. It just...

Kate and Sarah have ensured that me and my friend have had attentive hasty service and have made us feel very welcomed.

Great local pub with friendly staff, a great selection of drinks and food. Lots of outdoor seating when weather is good.

Attended a wake a few weeks ago at this pub, the hot buffet style food that was served was absolutely delicious. Special shout out to Sarah for being so attentive and friendly.

Great service, extensive drinks and menu choice and a lovely atmosphere! Had a great evening! My pup was spoilt by the staff too! X

Such a great service from Aidan would recommend. Food was great along with the service. Friendly, local pub. Would always return

I’m a local P head and this is by far the best place for a drink around! Great staff and amazing location since the refurb especially!!

Amazing service, drinks and food. The staff are lovely as always and it’s atmosphere is always friendly to dogs and kids

Have been here on previous visits to Stevenage but this time we were very disappointed. They have changed the menu and nothing appealed to either my husband or myself. Drinks were very expensive so we just had one and left.

Only place in Stevenage with any class. Staff are lovely. Beer garden's good. Decent for food or drinks.

I visited the pub with my children for lunch, such friendly staff and the food was amazing. Big shout out to Daniel who greeted us, Kate who served us and made sure we had everything we need and rui the chef who cooked us such...

Friendly staff, lovely food! Would recommend. Decent price, drinks were good! Had a lovely family-run feel to it

How lovely is this old pub, the beams the atmosphere, the fireplace… everything is SO pretty…..I could go on and on…We dined here last week, we’ve been here few times now, but never left a review before. So here goes.Absolutely lovely meal, the steak was perfect! (I’m a fussy eater). Staff friendly, couldn’t do enough for us. Observed another table having their Christmas meal, all laughing and jolly.I’d highly recommend you to visit this quaint, pretty pub in the heart of the Old Town ❤️

Nice warm inviting pub that accept dogs in the old town. Cant go wrong. Pleasant staff, nice festive decor, good prices on food and drinks. I had the chicken tray which went down a treat with me (and Leonard!) .. I’ll be back again soon. Thank you

My family and I visited the Mulberry tree yesterday, to celebrate a birthday. Some members of the family had lunch there and the rest of us joined them for dinner.The food was amazing and the service was outstanding.We had a variety of starters, main course, and desserts, and each person really enjoyed what they had ordered.I personally want to thank Dan our waiter, and Alan the chef for making it a very enjoyable day/night.Well done everyone, we will be coming back.The Casey family.

Leah always makes us feel welcomed when we come down to the mulberry tree. The food is always tasty. Definitely my favourite place to go in the old town!

Girls night out. The staff were so lovely as always, they are friendly and the service is fast despite how busy it was. Great music and selection of drinks. The door staff are much more approachable and the management team are out front doing everything and chatting to customers which is really lovely to see x

Everyone is amazing. Thanks for the good night. Shoutout leah!!!! Every drink was poured on point and we had a great evening. Great customer service!

Visited last Saturday 13/11/21 for a old works reunion. I was really looking forward to catching up for a few drinks after such a long long time with old work colleagues and friends that funny enough all worked/still work in the hospitality industry some in management positions (including myself). So I will admit the night started off pleasantly when we arrived at the mulberrytree although with it being a Saturday night it was rather busy and the pub was bustling with people so we struggled to find a table to sit around so we had result to standing around a large table that was situated in the dance floor area, may I add that no one told us that we were not allowed to do this. So for about 45 minutes myself and my friends were all stood around this said table talking about old times and having a brilliant time reminiscing old memories working with each other until we hear a large bang come from behind us from a rather large and disgruntled man looking us up and down, we all turn around confused to be told "move all your drinks this table is now being used!". Myself and my party all look at each other confused as to who this person is as he wasn't in the usual grey t-shirt uniform that the staff members were wearing... I then reply saying "well that was a bit rude?" To which he replies "what do you mean?" I explained that "you could have just polite asked us to move from the table instead off slamming down what ever you have in your hand onto to the table and rudely telling us to move our drinks" he said "whatever I do and say is none of your f****** business bruv!" Shocked from the reaction I asked who this guy was to which he told me to "f*** off" and proceed to bad mouth me while I walked off and told him to watch his mouth. So I then decide to go to the bar and find a member of management to which a barmaid said that she would fetch her over and ran around what looked to be the whole pub to find her... while I waited I noticed that the man was setting up a load of DJ gear on the table to putting 2 and 2 together I assumed that he was their weekend DJ. Once I was approached by what I believe was the assistant manager (I believe her name was Kay?) I took her to the end of the bar to explained what happened with a friend that was part of my party for confirmation as the music and surrounding voices were rather loud, she explained that he was technically a 3rd member of staff hired externally to solely play the music for the pub over the weekends as one of their DJ's. In my opinion what difference does it really make? He works for you in your business so regardless of being external or internal he should still treat each customer with a bit of respect as all your internally hired staff? She explained that she would pass on the feedback to the general manager who was currently on his was back from a sister pub for some reason. After spending sometime near to the bar I was greeted by the GM (I think his name was Stephen?) Who apologised profusely and if I'm honest was the only one who seemed genuine about it, which is a shame that the other staff couldn't have the same amount of care... he explained that he would give myself and my party a round on the house to apologise and would have a word with him at the end of the night, whether this happened or not I do not know as we had left before the pub closed but I really do wish that at least a few words were exchanged... so after a few minutes after finishing the current drinks we had I popped to the bar to get this free round that as promised and the barmaid had no clue what I was one about... I had explained that I had an unpleasant encounter with the DJ and that the general and assistant manager was aware about it and that they had offered myself and my party a free drink each, again she still looked confused and unaware of this until the assistant manager came over and explained to her to just put everything through the till and on a tab and that she would comp it at the end of the night. So I explained what drinks I would like which were the following... two double Disaronnos and coke, two double Woodford reserves and coke, a double Hendricks gin and lemonade and a double Brockmans gin and tonic, so as each drink was being poured I was carrying/handing over two drinks at a time to then sit down and realise that we were short of one drink, again a bit of a pain of a situation due to having to wait behind a large crowd of people to then explain to the assistant manager that I was short by one drink from the bar maid that served me, she looked through the order as I guess she didn't believe me for some strange reason. She had asked which drink I did not receive to which I explained that it was a DOUBLE brockmans gin and tonic, she then grabbed a gin glass from the back bar filled it with ice and then poured a SINGLE and I just stood there and shook my head took the drink off her when she came over and went back to the table as I couldn't be bothered to explain that she didn't pour the requested double I had asked for. All in all the only thing good about the experience was the heart felt and genuine apology off of the general manager which I praise completely, everything else sort of dampened myself and my parties night. Working in the industry myself how hard things have been for us all due to covid and I understand that complaints come in regardless but the way that this was dealt was rather poorly if I'm honest, I've enjoyed many nights out in the mulberrytree in the past but I doubt I'll return until things change for the better.

Great experience overall! Barmaid leah provided me and my friends with an amazing fast and friendly service. I would 100% recommend for any occasion!

Great evening out for dinner with the mrs, tried the lasagne for the first time, blew my mind, thanks to chef rui for the food, and thank you to sasha and aidan for the great service, friendly from the moment we walked in!

Went for a meal with my family. There was so many options to choose from,food and drink wise. Staff were all so kind. We didn’t wait too long for our food and it was all delicious and well presented. Will defiantly return!

Went to the Mulberry Tree for a night out last weekend and we had such a great night! DJ Freedom played the best songs and we were dancing all night. The staff were so friendly and we were made to feel really welcome even though they were extremely busy. Thank you, we will be back

It's just an amazing pub, with amazing staff I will always recommend! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟- 5 stars all the way

Came for dinner with a long term friend and her young daughter who is incredibly fussy. No swaps on the menu were too much trouble for the kitchen, the rest of our food came out lovely and hot and I would highly recommend the festive "hot cheese board".10/10 would recommend and compliments to the chef

Leah was amazing. 10/10 would recommend. Nice atmosphere, good selection of drinks. Service was quick. Had a great time!!

It was great, they had alcohol. 👍 It's what I came for and it's what I got. Leah served me, lass knows how to pour a drink. Nice and chatty, always a friendly face. Ta.

Awesome atmosphere with lovely staff. Drinks are reasonably priced and food is really good! Massive selection of drinks including shelves of gin. Nice beer garden and dogs are welcome (with dog treats behind the bar) Highly recommended.

My family and I had a great meal and Emmi and Leah made us feel very welcome, would definitely recommend!

Was in the area and popped in here, good service, excellent choice of drinks on tap. Nice comfy seating areas, spacious pub with decent clean toilets. Excellent, will return

Recent visit at a lunchtime with friends was disappointing. The guy behind the bar had little or no customer skills, making us feel unwelcome. A number of food items that our table requested were unavailable; the guy seemed almost disinterested; and when I asked if we could start a tab and pay at the end please, he responded: “Well, if you’re SURE you’ll pay at the end”. Really? We weren’t even sitting outside! The bread for my sandwich was dry/stale , with no garnish, so it was a sorry looking lunch. I wouldn’t recommend it (apart from the young lady working there - she was good at her job and friendly but we didn’t see much of her).

Some of our band members went here last night (Wednesday 20th Oct) for food and a beer before 3 hrs rehersals. The food was 1st class and imaginative which was an extra treat and good on price too. Bar team were welcoming and friendly and the pub itself looks a pretty cool place to be. Big thanks to Karie and Alan who cooked up the lovely food. Bravo!

Dining alone and went for the fish and chips. Beautiful cod fillet that was much larger than expected. Thanks to Eden, Craige and Dan the chef.

Really nice place for food and drinks. Aidan made us all feel welcomed and kept the drinks flowing:)

Busy Saturday lunch and they were a member of staff down so only two people front of house. Was told food would be 45 as they had two tables of 10 in but came out in 20 and was banging! Veggie burger and the steak sandwich! 10/10!

Leah and Kate were so friendly and bubbly. They helped me with all my needs. The food was absolutely delicious - you wouldn’t think it’s pub grub. Thank you so much girls, will be back!!

Leah was our server for the evening. Whilst deciding what to drink she recommended the rhubarb spritz to me which was exactly what I was looking for in a beverage. Food came out really quickly Will definitely return.

Had a lovely time here our waiter Daniel was really attentive and helpful, will definitely be coming back :)

Popped in for breakfast fast and excellent service food was amazing ( recommend the bubble n sqeauk ) good atmosphere the staff could not be more polite and helpful

I came in last night with my partner and 9 year old sister after attending the fair. They had a great selection of food for both adults and children and once ordered the food came very quickly and tasted amazing. The time we finished our mains the kitchen had closed but they were happy to reopen it and make us all deserts. We will definitely be coming back again.

Visited with some friends for some dinner and drinks. The mulberry tree is always looks like such a wonderful pub, and we weren’t disappointed. Food was great, thanks to Daniel and his wonderful cooking and service. And drink choice was amazing. I think it was Aiden that served us and was so friendly and helpful! Will be visiting again, the staff are clearly proud and happy to work there!

What a lovely place staff were friendly and made us feel welcome, I went for a classic burger although hard to pick from the many options of different burgers, will be back again soon

Very great atmosphere, such friendly staff, definitely a. Good idea to come here on a weekend for the vibe

Was at a club around the corner from mulberry but did not enjoy it and found it to be very unsafe so me and my friend decided to leave and find somewhere else to go. I heard good things about mulberry tree from my friend so thought we would give it a go. The bouncers were lovely when we said we felt unsafe at the other place they said if we feel unsafe there at all to come and get them. The bar staff were amazing with quick service and the overall vibe was so chill and fun. Would definitely recommend for a night out with friends or a day with family.

I always have such a great time here! Whether it’s having lunch or a few gin and tonics. Staff are always so lovely especially Sasha! Love this place.

Went for lunch and the dirty burgers were amazing! Had a few drinks too, staff were lovely and friendly will definitely be coming back to try out the rest of the menu ☺️

Came in for a few drinks with friends. Leah and emmi were exceptional. Friendly faces behind the bar,great service, good prices - what more can you ask for!

Popped in to grab a quick bite to eat, such a warm welcome by the lovely bar team, Leah and Kate! Very helpful, answered all of my questions!Service was quick and the food was even quicker! The food is yummy and affordable. Will definitely be coming back with friends and family. Will recommend this pub to everyone I can!

The best pub in Stevenage. Food is grand and the staff are friendly. Best vibe for pretty much any night.

Lovely staff, lovely drinks! Great good! 100% one of the best places to go in the old town! Couldn’t have a nicer atmosphere

Pleasant pub on Stevenage High street, Good menu & fair prices. Took the kids for lunch during the holidays. Would highly recommend 🙂 2 kids 1 adult under £20

Good atmosphere, occasionally visit at weekends. Live DJ Fridays and Saturdays. Drinks are good prices
