The Round Bush in Hertsmere

Top place..great food and drink..staff are very polite and always helpful

The perfect local. Doesn't pretend to be something it isn't. Forget the nonsense about the hygiene rating. That was before the present owners and many many years ago. Google keep on putting up the review even though they have been told otherwise! I eat here often and have for years and never had a problem. Great atmosphere. Still the best local.

Very nice pub tucked away with a friendly atmosphere. Would recommend.

The 'oasis' that are Aldenham, High Cross, Patchetts Green, Letchmore Heath and Round Bush considering it's just 11 miles roughly from a London postcode and barely a stone throw off J5 M1 is blessed with this excellent pub in Round Bush called, yes, The Round Bush ! In these places if you didn't know otherwise you'd think you were much further afield from London than you are. Then there's the pub. Make a point of going. Clean, tidy, friendly, pleasant, efficient ,no ridiculous prices on ale and food, and normal people who can talk, smile and be civil. Eleven miles makes quite a difference when you go to Round Bush and 'The Round Bush'. Give it a go, you'll not be disappointed.

Went for a meal 6 people it was a lovely pub family run dogs where welcome kids welcome lovely afternoon

It’s a solid pub, with friendly easy-going staff. I was there on a Monday night, so it was quiet. But the place had a nice feel. The food was standard pub food, but was of very good quality. I had the beef chilli and it was excellent. The Guinness was good as well. But the highlight were the staff. I was obviously not a regular, but they were friendly and attentive. Service was quick and efficient. I wish there were more places like this.

Gem of a pub, lovely garden. Food is great and staff friendly and helpful

I booked a table for 13 walkers and pre-booked the food. It all worked brilliantly. I’m very grateful!

Family run friendly pub very professional variety of wines and arrows and beers very good service and very reasonable prices. Food was HOME cooked none of that microwave rubbish thanks RoundBrush had a great day on Sunday with my family. Will definitely be back there again soon the roast beef was succulent.💕

Mynchorus come here on Thursday nights after rehearsal to socialise. Being singers, we vocalise a song or two, and the staff don't seem to mind too much. Good times.

Liam keogh made it wonderful experience

The food was absolutely amazing! Service and atmosphere were also fantastic! Waitress gave us some awesome suggestions on things to do in the area. Great traditional pub to start your English holiday!

Love this pub! The staff are so friendly and welcoming

We popped in for a quick drink. It was very busy inside so we sat outside. The landlord introduced himself to us and was very friendly. I'll definitely go back when the weather's better. It's also dog friendly which for me is a bonus

Evening meal with family of 12. Parking is good. About 15 car park spaces. The service was good and the table was nice situated and nicely laid out. The food was good and service up quite fast. Food was fresh and portion is reasonable size. I’m surprised this pub is not as busy it should be as the quality of food was good.

Came here for a roast dinner and selected the lamb. Food was pleasant Had the crispy prawns for starter and they were very nice.

Good quality food in a friendly pub

Love this cosy country pub, good choice of food with decent veg options, friendly service too.

Lovely food, friendly and speedy service. Went for lunch and the place was heaving with several large groups and yet our food turned up in double quick time. No idea how the kitchen pulls it off. Well done one and all.

A nice friendly pub. Great food. A few really noisy kids took the edge off the meal as we couldn’t hear each other - I’m all for family pubs, but screaming and fighting not fun for other guests. Lovely after they’d left.

We visited The Roundbush for dinner on Mothers Day. The roast beef was amazing and the staff were really nice and friendly, Looking forward to going back there again soon!

Went for Sunday lunch and had a lovely roast beef with friends.

Amazing experience from start to finish. Shannon is the hostess with the mostess! . Sorted out our party of 24 like an absolute pro and all with a smile on her face. The food was excellent, very generous portions and everything cooked to perfection. They reserved us a good separate section of the pub and the accompanying playpark for the kids in the party just meant the whole thing worked so slickly. The bar side seemed really welcoming and clearly loved by some friendly locals. Would come back in a heart beat and thank you for making a special birthday occasion such a lovely memory. We are looking forward to coming back already.

Lovely pub and good atmosphere, the staff were nice and attentive. Unfortunately the food is waayyy overpriced! Haddock was overcooked and dry and friends said their burgers came out burnt and oily. I won't be back for food!

It's always a pleasure to be here on a Sunday. Amazing atmosphere with friendly staff and a lovely bunch of customers.

I had haddock and chips, the fish was fresh and flaky, would have preferred chunky chips, but the fries were good.

Always lovely food and the staff really make sure we have a nice time. One small complaint...the coffee always tastes bitter and burnt. Tried 3 or 4 times.

Great pub for Sunday roast. The food was excellent and plentiful. The staff super helpful and friendly and nice open log fire to warm you up.

Went with a large group of walkers - the numbers changed a couple of times beforehand but this was not a problem as the staff were very amenable to amend the numbers even at late notice. The staff were very attentive, friendly and willing to meet our needs and took and delivered orders efficiently. The food was good and tasty. We were made to feel very much at home, so much so that our relaxed stay was longer than I can remember at any other pub. Well done Roundbush staff!

The Round Bush was fantastic today on all counts. Only had a light lunch but it arrived quickly, was hot and tasty, and the staff were exceedingly pleasant.

Friendly staff and a varied menu

Good pub food. Good beer. Good service in nice surroundings

We visited for lunch on Xmas Eve. 10 adults and 6 children. Excellent service, great food, a real local gem and worth visit.

Very friendly pub, I did not have food but was told by many people how nice it is. I visited this pub as my mum used to work behind the bar 40 years ago! It has not changed at all still a great local old country pub with open fire.

This place is a little gemstone. The service is great, the food is amazing, and it just feels very homely and welcoming. I would definitely recommend giving this lovely country pub a go but would suggest booking as it gets very, very busy. The Sunday lunch was out of this world delicious, you should give it a go.. Enjoy!

Club Xmas meal, 40 of us, so a bit of a challenge, service was a bit slow but the food was excellent and the staff are great. Will definitely be back

Shannon and team are so accomodating and friendly .We had our christmas dinner last week food was lovely great day .Thank you!!🎉

Delicious Christmas lunch, friendly attentive service and great atmosphere. My first visit, I'll be back.

I am amazed that I found this gem of an amazing pub, in the middle of nowhere having walked through the fields via Battlers Green Farm on my way to Aldenham and "chanced" along here. If YOU want a happy,friendly,professionally run pub STILL giving YOU the feeling of "doing THEM a favour for just turning up" then THIS is most definitely THE pub for YOU! It's one of those very RARE experiences that YOU would wish that you could just pick it up and take it to wherever you live! Apart from this.....it's OK! 😉😊( he says sarcastically) I just love this pub and you will too! Nigel Coyne

A great welcoming local pub with fantastic food and lovely vibe. We were a party of 5 and went primarily for a few drinks, but thought we'd try a few starters. We were so glad we did - Everything was delicious, and even the salad was lovely. Not just something pulled out of a bag and thrown next to the food, but lovely in of itself. The coated crispy prawns were perfect and crisp yet not 'greasy' at all. The pate was lovely with the onion chutney - Literally all the individual elements added to the overall meal and were tasty all by themselves. Leek and Stilton soup - Perfect. It was all so nice we ordered mains a good while later too. All of them arrived piping hot and were so delicious. We were not rushed, but instead allowed to simply relax and chat and then order from the lovely staff when we were ready. There was a good crowd of 'regulars' but unlike other local bars there was no feeling of it being a closed clique - We felt just like any other regular as soon as we walked in. We met one of the owners (Shannon?) who introduced herself and made sure we were having a lovely evening - Which we were! All in all, it was everything you'd hope a local pub would be if it was doing everything right, which the team here clearly are. Thank you for a wonderful evening, and now we've found you we will certainly be back!

Was here on a Saturday evening. How lovely to finally find a pub that IS traditional - lovely staff, great food, welcoming with a warm atmosphere and ambience. Nothing pretentious, just a cosy charming local pub with a really friendly vibe. In a world of 'chain' pubs it's so refreshing to have a good meal and cold pint in a local place that's doing it all right! Exactly what you'd want a 'local' pub to be, and you feel it as soon as you walk in the door!

I hadn't been here for some time. My brother was visiting from Australia and wanted to go somewhere local, a bit of "memory lane". The food and drink were good but the service was absolutely fantastic. The staff were really friendly and helpful. We couldn't have wanted more.

Some things never change. The Round Bush .. straightforward friendly welcoming unpretentious local pub.. I've have been an occasional visitor since the 1980's. It never disappoints..enjoy.

Only criticism, the food could have been hotter. Service poor but pub was very busy.

Nice country pub just outside watford

Upon entering was warm/friendly, Olives starter absolutely fab, followed by chops medium rare for my fella, n chicken breast in white wine sauce for me, :) very ...... nice!!!!!

Great food, service and atmosphere Love this pub.

What a wonderful experience. A first time visit with family from Ecuador so they can live the pub experience. It was the best countryside pub visit. The food was amazing and the 2 ladies were very friendly, accomodating and always with a smile. I will definitely come back and promote this venue.

Great for all the family. Very friendly staff. Great child friendly beer garden. Lovely country pub atmosphere. Superb food..

Baked hake cooked to order delicious Will return

My grandchildren love playing in garden and the food is good

Super god atmosfære. Virkelig sød betjening. Meget gæstfri. Virkelig hyggeligt. Deres fish and chips kunne godt smage af lidt mere. Det andet vi fik fra menukortet var super godt. Ca 195 pund for 9 personer.

The worst Sunday lunch Eaten in many a year

Great pub, friendly landlord. Lovely place to go when walking the dog. Haven’t used for food but will return as what I saw looked great.

We booked to celebrate my father-in-law’s 97th birthday. Staff were excellent, professional and caring, the pub was full but we were not rushed and management took time to engage with us - would recommend.

Excellent food very good service

Very nice place to spend time with family.

Service good had the option of inside or outside. Staff helpful and friendly. Food well cooked and plenty of it.

This old friend is growing very shabby and the toilets are pokey and dirty. The food was pretty average .

As it was a Sunday, we had the raist lamb and the roast chicken. (There are other dishes available on a Sunday) Both were cooked very well and were lovely. Plenty of veg, roast potatoes, and gravy. Very good value for money and reasonably priced. Nice, friendly staff. Well worth a visit.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Traditional Country pub, set in the heart of aldenham. Cosy atmosphere, with a smile on every member of staff. We attended the steak night at the round bush & I must say this was no disappointment. Beautiful cut of a T-Bone steak cooked to perfection. Shannon & the team were very welcoming at all times & the service was second to none. Highly recommend this traditional cosy country pub…..

Seven of us called in after a visit to Harry Potter world not far away. Great, attentive service, good range of drinks; food good value and excellent quality. When next in area we will be back!

It's a pub,a proper little old fashioned boozer, love it

A lovely relaxed ambience,wonderful attentive service with a smile,great food and a delighful garden and play area at the back This is not my first time and will not be my last

I happened upon this pub after attending a stone setting at nearby Old Bushey Jewish Cemetery. What a delightful place. During the busy period on a Sunday afternoon the staff found our party of 5 a table without any fuss where we were treated to a lovely Sunday roast served by absolutely charming girls. Such a lovely pub, I highly recommend it and will be back if we are ever in the Radlett area again.

Nice enough place. Burger I ordered had been cremated but other than that food was ok. Would I return......yes. Maybe the kitchen staff had a bad day.

Nice country pub. Simple food, but done well. Good service. Kid friendly.

Nice place for friends to sit and enjoy life.

Fantastic roast beef Sunday dinner, vegetables were cooked just right, the sirloin beef was divine, the portions were large and just right.Was a bit worried when dinner came out with steak knives on the plate but the meat was so tender could have used butter knives. Service quick efficient and plenty of smiles.

The Sunday roast was great. It's a fantastic pub.

Such a good old proper pub ,fantastic service and food gutted I couldn't stay all day 🤣🍺🍺🍺🍺🤪

Great friendly pub. Good food and busy.

A quiet ish pub, sat in the garden to catch up with a friend, great beer and cider, burgers were good too. Dog friendly.

This pub is boasting with popularity and so it should , set in a beautiful location , a warm welcome by fantastic staff and food is exceptional . I personally think they make the best omelette I have ever eaten, today was a reminder I need to go more often

Excellent service, especially from Shannon - a great welcome, friendly, efficient and professional. Good food, setting and atmosphere too!

We like this pub for the odd lunch… however… The prices are going up and I’m really not sure that they are warranted. I now avoid the main meals and tend to stick to the baguettes with chips which are good value for money. But £16 at lunchtime for a burger is just a couple quid north of acceptable imho. No lunch menu or offers. Just looking to fleece the local millionaires I guess?!

Fabulous food, lovely staff, would highly recommend.

Lovely little pub, great atmosphere, kind and friendly staff.

Came here for sunday lunch, loveliest bank holiday meal. The staff were so accommodating, happy to make any meal changes me and my family needed. Very generous portions, lovely food and great service. No faults - if you want a cosy family dinner - this is the place for you. 5stars in my eyes.

great staff fantastic vibe. would recommend. anyone to come along

A lovely quaint pub nestled near Radlett. People are happy, the food is good and the location is great for an afternoon lunch or evening drink.

The food is always really good and the staff are very helpfully and friendly

Great time at party in the park. Plenty of variety food and drink stalls. Queen tribute group were fantastic. Pity about the rain but brilliant time had by all.

Traditional pub, great service and a tasty beef and ale pie. Friendly and welcoming atmosphere.

Just had a lovely roast dinner, the staff were extremely friendly & helpful

Lovely family run pub. Around the corner from Aldenham farm. We were a party of 3 adults 1 infant and a dog for Easter lunch. Service was wonderful. Food very wholesome and lovely. Can't go wrong!

Quite a nice ' traditional' pub, food of an acceptable level if a little pricey for what it is (however that's true of most places post Covid!) Staff friendly and quite helpful. Seating is uncomfortable after 90 minutes or so (take a cushion if saying for a while). Good choices of alcohol.

Really friendly staff and amazing size portions of food. Fast to the table and tasty food 😎

Always a lovely meal with warm staff and yummy food, good drinks! Highly recommended been coming here for 20 years and it never disappoints

Nice proper pub for food and drink.

I have eaten here several times over the years and received excellent service, unfortunately yesterday they were severely lacking. Sunday lunch not available, steak pie was basic, we had to wait for cutlery to be “washed “ then we were ignored.. no offer of dessert and decided to go to bar to pay and leave.

Food was tasty but my pie had very little meat in it.

Went with my grandson to the RoundBrush and my daughter, the food was exceptionally good. The drinks were very nice and the staff were exceptionally friendly and very helpful. Couldn’t do enough to help us will definitely be going back for more lunch. Is there breaks the day up thanks again RoundBrush for a lovely afternoon ❤️🥰😘 better

Really friendly little pub with restaurant facilities. Lovely pub food, friendly staff and popular with locals and visitors. Dog friendly too in the bar and decent parking.

Portions are great, the food is tasty, the prices are more than fair and service is friendly. Very pleased with my booking

It was good I had the crispey chicken burger it was crispey and the pudding was really tasty

Had Sunday lunch very good but never like at home

Although we are not locals, a good friend of ours is and we have visited here three times now. Everytime we are warmly greeted by staff and instantly made to feel welcome. Today we had lunch, nacho burger for me, falafel burger for my friend and chicken pie for my partner. Could not fault the food at all! Tasty, and good value for money. The pies are made fresh locally every day, how lovely. Overall a great experience, friendly staff and excellent service. Thank you and see you again very soon x
