The Orange Tree in Herefordshire, County of

Great pub. Beer quality excellent. Didn't sample the food. Usually Black Country Ales pubs have a selection of cobs and pork pies.

We stopped in by chance and discovered every Tuesday night around 7pm they have a complimentary cheese board! Great spread, very nice cheeses/pickle/deli meat selection. Matt the Bartender was very lovely. Beautifully decorated classic pub. Definitely would recommend stopping by!

Divine little watering hole! Excellent staff lovely atmosphere. Matt was a knowledgeable bar tender and helped me discover black country ales. They even had a cheese board on! Will definitely return

Very good city pub with a proper choice of real ale.

Great pub. We wandered in here while holidaying in the area, what a find! Comfortable seating , great beer , lovely friendly staff and what a wonderful atmosphere. I wish it was my local , well done all.

A really cosy pub with a warm welcome from the gent behind the bar. Only had coffee (as had the car), this was very nice. Would like to return and spend some time as they had a great range of real ales and ciders.

Thought it was a fabulous pub especially if you love real ales. Think there was at least 11 real ales. Any brass, pumps, doors etc were kept fabulously clean. Will be going back when the weather's a bit warmer. Well done landlord

Popped in for a quick pint on Saturday night. Busy, vibrant and good selection of ales. Enjoyable.

Drinks only. Nice 'pubby' kind of atmosphere. Good choice of craft beers

Simply the best and only undisputed ale-house in the whole of Hereford! Their quality and quantity of ales is unrivaled within both Hereford city centre, and the wider Herefordshire. The owners (Nick and Lisa), and all the remaining staff operate attentively, and efficiently - enhancing the already established reputation of this fine public house. The Orange Tree seems to inadvertently create a strong community-feel through the way in which they operate - a consensus you will unfortunately struggle to find elsewhere. Hats off to those at the Orange Tree; and a big thank you for all that you do for your customers :)

Reasonable Real-Ale; minus the Riff-Raff! The Orange Tree holds the mantle for the premier Public House in Hereford. Reasonably price beer; non-assuming clientele; and an atmosphere that encapsulates such qualities. Perfect for any occasion, the Orange Tree pose as a popular venue that provides a local-feel. Quite simply; (Citra) Sublime! A go-to for any pub gallivanter. Working within the trade, this is the only pub within Hereford I will comfortably defer our customers to. Chins up, OT!

Staff vary friendly, really good atmosphere. Plenty of seating if you get there early. Toilets vary clean.

Excellent beer, very friendly service.

Great selection of ales, tasty cobs, and nice atmosphere.

Absolute wonderful pub in a relaxed setting. Staff helpful. I found a box of dominos on a shelf so we played. Yes, it sounds boring but we had a good laugh at us being far too young for this to be a night out. The drinks were not cheap.

Great pub find. A dozen or so beers/ciders to choose from. A knowledgeable landlord ( Nick ) and bar staff made this a good friendly environment. Some food snacks available at the bar,pies / sandwich etc. You are here for the beer, ambience and having a chat . Good decor. Clean tidy and well cared for. Comfy seats and the heating is on.......Great for winter. Also was able to try out some of my local beers ( Leeds, Wilde Child ) as well as some from The Black Country. All in all myself and partner Sandra and I enjoyed The Orange Tree and would make it our local if we lived in Hereford.

Excellent choice of fine draft ales. Superb ambience and extremely well presented pub.

Although there's no restaurant or cooked food on offer there is a dozen fresh rolls on the bar in a container and they're delicious. The owner is a right nice geezer and has stocked the pub to the gills with whatever you want to drink!. I met some locals inside, really nice and chatty which made me feel at home. I would like to have a holiday in Hereford and not just the surrounding countryside. As I said there's no food on offer but the Thai Garden was recommended so off I went.........

Follow Mr & Mrs R on TikTok. Great pub with real ale served with a smile. Enjoy your visit!

Best beer and traditional cob rolls in Hereford

wow, what can I say, myself and my friends stumbled across the orange tree after a very bad experience at the spread. very friendly staff a Amazing selection of real ales and their own black Country ales as well the pub was Spotlessly clean and a nice beer garden at the back the barman was very Knowledgeable of the ales that was on sale and let us try some so we new what the ale was like I Definitely recommend the orange tree if your in hereford

Great little pub good choice of beers nice drink

One not to miss. Cosy pub old world type. Atmosphere and cosy Dog friendly. Great drink menu. Lovely ciders and ales. Beer garden available. It's a busy small place. Highly recommend it. Grab your seat and try the selection. Also offering dog water etc Definitely return when we back in hereford.

We popped into this little gem whilst on a trip to Hereford, ceiling very low, (Mind Your Head). The pub has had a recent makeover to a very high standard too, we were made very welcome by Jack who gave us a sample before we bought our cider, there is a vast array of real ales, lagers and ciders to choose from. It will be on our Hereford bucket list on our next visit. Thank You Orange Tree.. Dave & Jill.

What a welcome change has come about since this bar reverted to it's original name. The last time we visited, it was called the "Firefly" which was unfriendly, underwhelming and pretentious. Not anymore however! The "Orange Tree" is now an extremely welcoming, accessible and real. The beer selection is one of the best in town and the beer garden is second to none. See you again very soon!

Nice quiet pub with a great selection of cask ales and friendly staff

Olde worlde pub....seems to have much to offer but only popped in for a quick drink with a lady friend

Great selection of very well conditioned cask beers and very well priced with a friendly service. Probably the cleanest pub I've ever been in too! Best pub in Hereford by far for real ale enthusiasts.

Huge selections of beer on tap and a board (TV screen) showing them all with an explanation. Also had air conditioning which on a hot day was amazing.

Great little pub, lovely atmosphere, a million miles away from when the last owners had it!

Very pleasant staff and very good selection of ales, a pub to be comfy in🍺👍

The bar men nick is great. Great service.

Lovely dog friendly pub. Helpful and welcoming staff. Real ales.

Great little pub, had a glass of cider, wow, 7.5% made me sleep.. yes I will go back again..

Fab place to catch up with friends, Bar staff brilliant, nice place sit out the back, toilets spotless

Nice pub, good selection of drinks and good atmosphere.

Outstanding pub with an excellent choice of ales. One the cleanest pubs we have visited. Good advice regarding choice of ale. We will be calling again soon.

Good food no atmosphere really but overall not bad

This is great place to go for drinks, loved it. Friendly staff lovely place to go. Chilled out and relaxed

Usual excellent Black Country Ales offering

I don't have negatives to say about the pub, it was alright. Only had one pint there and didn't order food. Not busy when I visited (Wednesday evening) so atmosphere wasn't really there. We moved on to other pubs we were more familiar with.

Lovely selection of Cask ales, nice beer garden, friendly staff and Wow.. the filled rolls are sensational at just £3 each.

Excellent choice of real ales. Knowledgeable and friendly staff. What all pubs should be and most are not

Quick pint of Guinness and a cider and sit in the sun at the end of a lovely day.

A great find in Hereford! Lovely pub, friendly staff and the best selection of beers and ales we found in the area. If you are into your ales and in Hereford - we would recommend a visit.

Proper old school boozer with an excellent range of craft beer, prices are very fair and the pork scratchings are proper Black Country ones. Long live these kind of pubs!

Great beer, great place, great company. I was there out on the front watching all the young people going to the graduation ceremony. My granddaughter and grandson were going as well. Very nice chatting outside with regular customers that had rainbow socks and brolly - it wasn't raining but good fun.

Not been 4 a while ,but its nice

Can rate the food as I didn't have any. This place has 12 real ale taps ! In short, if you like proper British Beer, you're in or near Hereford? Yes, just go !

Great selection of real ales. Really friendly staff 👍👍👍👍

Nice pub, great selection of beers and the barman was very helpful 👍

Totally fantastic place and the ploughman's is just amazing as are the cobs nick lisa and the staff are all fantastic a safe and lovely real ale pub....a pleasure to visit

Great place for real beer and a friendly atmosphere.

Been here now quite a few times. Owner is very friendly and inviting, beers are all good, large selection of local beers and ciders, good beer garden out the back. Definitely worth a visit.

Sun trap beer garden with large choice of beer and cider, inside looked lovely by weather too good to sit inside Dog friendly

Quite a surprise how good it was. Some different beers as well..

Excellent recently opened real pub - excellent choice of beers and ciders - and good prices!! friendly staff Definitely one to return to! Proper wet pub!!

Lovely place Great choice of Ales

Unreasonable bar staff, communication an issue, apparently Pinot Grigio sounds like Savignon Blanc, completely refused to change incorrect to order which was frustrating.

Current incarnation is really good. More mature clientele, with a similar vibe to the Barrels.

Always clean, comfortable, nicely busy but not mad, professional, good choice of well kept drinks. Nice to have a decent local again.

Love playing the domino's and cards whilst having a drink!

Found this place by just walking around Hereford - what a find from a friendly barman to a place that had just been refurbished to a very high standard. An excellent choice of beers and ciders and some fresh rolls ( sorry they were called cobs) on the bar. There will be a return visit a really nice pub for a drink. It was quiet when we visited as it was a Monday lunch time but was told the evenings and weekends it’s very busy.

Great to see this old Hereford Boozer open again. It's 'wet led' with 10 cask ales (6 rotating guests, 4 Black Country Brewery), 2 still ciders and 4 keg lines. Huge cheese or ham salad rolls are the only food but at £3 a roll a bargain. Most expensive ale was £4 (see photos for choice). Friendly landlord and locals.

A wonderfully friendly welcoming pub, great choice Ales, warm and chilled Staff, basic snacks, very relaxing would recommend 👍

Good for ale drinkers who want a quiet drink somewhere that feels like an extension of their living room. Very 'homely' decor. Take a newspaper... 😊

Comfy pub, friendly staff and great beers!

Very good pub lots of different beers

Very nice, great to see a firm who put some money on to this now great pub

Really nice, regular pub. Clean, airy and good service. Local pub vibe.

Busy PLACE. ambience good staff good 8

Popped in for quick drink whilst waiting for someone,have been in before as father in law regular, nice atmosphere cosy feel in the 17th century pub, friendly staff .Thanks.

Great friendly pub the staff are awesome. Fantastic beers and ciders

Huge range of great beers , friendly staff

Lovely refurbishment well worth a visit

Lovely clean friendly & relaxing place to go definitely making this my local 😎

very friendly staff a fab choice of real ales on tap friendly atmosphere well worth a visit

Clean, cosy, bright, smartly appointed, welcoming, wide range of ales...what's not to like? Well, the wines: no sales by the glass, only small or full bottles on offer and so little choice. Guess what? Lots of folk love wine, my partner included who expects at least Sauvignon Blanc, preferably from New Zealand. She would have left had I not persuaded her to have a g and t...she was so right when she explained how disappointed I would be in any pub if there was crap beer on draught...the Orange Tree is trying hard and it works well for all ale loving people who, let's face it, are mainly blokes. But these blokes often drink accompanied by their ladies...and they often want to drink good wine.

Went in there recently on a Tuesday and Friday. Bit busier on the Friday (as to be expected) but found it nice, looked like a good crowd everyone was friendly and the staff are welcoming

Great selection of ales with knowledgeable bar staff.

Friendly staff amazing rolls an real nice atmosphere

Very welcoming pub and lovely and warm too .Keep up the good work

Cosy proper pub feeling with heated outside area. Staff are absolutely amazing and friendly. First visit and definitely not the last

Well after never reviewing a pub before I felt this deserved it, the new owners have completely transformed this pub. It is warm welcoming and the bar staff are absolutely fab so polite and friendly New favourite place to have a drink!

Lots and lots of lovely beer. Yum.

Very friendly staff and a really good atmosphere 👍

Firstly congratulations to the true stars who have clearly turned this pub around since re-opening! A really fantastic choice of cask ales, and cider but also the bar is well stocked for non beer drinking as well! Staff are so friendly the pub is warm & truthfully cannot recommend enough for those who have not already found it!

Can’t remember if I’ve reviewed a pub before; however, the Orange Tree deserves a plug. Recently refurbished by new owners Black Country Ales, it’s comfy and cozy, with a great selection of beers and a couple of ciders. The manager deserves a mention as well,...

Beautiful relaxing surroundings

Without a shadow of doubt.. the best place to enjoy a comfortable glass of some of the finest ales you can wish for. Mine host is a dying breed, quality fella.

Cracking range of ales and all well kept.

Great, cosy pub. Warm welcome and clean throughout. Nice decor, In keeping with the age of the pub. Tasty, huge cobs only £2.50.

My wife and I absolutely love the Orange Tree. Black Country Ales for a genuine black country boy. The management and staff are without a doubt some of the best in Hereford

This is what a pub should be. Great beer, good atmosphere and pleasant staff, to top it off the beer was the cheapest I've had in years.

Lovely pub. Open fire. Very welcoming. Great selection of real ale. Good top shelf. Range of lager too.

fantastic to see it finally restored to it's former glosy proper pub for proper drinks and not a fpood pub

Good beer nice staff. Well refurbished. The nicest this pub has been for years.

Wonderful to see a proper pub in Hereford. Great choice of beer . Cobs on the counter excellent. Great attentive and informative bartender. Well done.

Really impressed with this pub. The old Firefly was characterful and decent but a different vibe. I barely recognised the place after its re-furb. Or should I say de-furb. It's been brilliantly returned to a traditional pub. The owners have chosen to avoid popular stripped down, hipster shabby style tropes, instead opting for carpet, upholstered benches, warm glow wall lamps, fire, and lots of comfy nooks. A public house not a bar. Somewhere you feel you could settle in for a good few hours. In going back to tradition it feels ahead of it's time. Post post modern or whatever you're meant to call it. On top of that the landlords are really friendly. Not a place for getting lashed and lairy (plenty of those in Hereford). Comfort, friendliness and great beer are the priority.

Busy pub with great beer, interior and atmosphere.
