After having a talk with Nathan, it was abundantly clear that the value he holds high are that of a premium mixologist. Selecting the finest ingredients from that available of the suppliers, the Pina Colada and Virgin Pornstar Martini excelled the expectations of our party and were truly mixed and pursed with passion and finese. A true asset, and high commendations to Nathan, our true mixologist and cocktail wizard.

Very quite when we visited on a Thursday evening, a very relaxed atmosphere. Some cocktails were 2 for £12 so we went for these - they looked great, tasted good but were filled completely with ice meaning you didn’t actually get much drink.

Went with friends, the first time visiting. Only ones in the bar, sat in the garden very far away. We ordered 6 drinks which took at least 30mins. As the only people in the entire place this was far too long to wait. 2 members of staff were sat arranging flowers during this time. Cocktails were of a very low quality after the wait. Overall disappointed.

Really disappointing birthday visit to the snug. After ringing 8 times, messaging on Facebook and sending 3 emails someone phoned me back and I requested the birthday package where balloons, cake and Prosecco are given. When we got there there was no birthday package ready and no record of there being one. Very frustrating visit with awful communication. Free Prosecco was given on arrival but no balloons or cake were available.

Not a fan of these types of venues but got dragged along for a quick cocktail. The place was empty when we arrived and is a bit soulless to tell the truth. The cocktail was okay but nothing special and certainly not worth the money charged.

Went to The Snug Bar for a couple of cocktails prior going to a local restaurant for a meal, had been there before and had an enjoyable time. We arrived at just past 7:00pm, we noted this as the happy hour had just ended, I went to the bar to order the drinks, after about a 5 minute wait, and on the request of one of the guys behind the bar the waitress requested that all people at the bar to go back to their tables and she would take orders at the table. After a further 10 minutes I had to attract the same waitress attention to order our drinks she took our order and we waited. It got to 7:30 and I asked waitress how long would it be before the drinks arrived as we had a resveration at a restaurant, she said they were being prepared. After a further ten minutes they had still not arrived, so we decided that a casual cocktail prior to going out for our meal was not going to happen. We informed the waitress we were leaving as we needed to get to the restaurant for our reservation, her response was she would get them to us shortly. We told her it was not an option, we had waited almost 45 minutes in the bar, which was not overly busy as there were a number of empty tables. Dissapointed at the poor service and getting our evening off to a bad start, but pleased to say that the restaurant we went to redeemed the evening.

Saturday night drinking, heard that the snug was a good bar to go. It was not. The bar staff were rude & not interest. Table server “Jordan” is was overly friendly & was pestering us to get drinks we already said we didn’t want. He ruined our experience. He also made a joke that we found very offensive & we left shortly after. The cocktails were average & were filled to the top with soda when half full. Unimpressed. Never again.

To start off with, walking in the place looked lovely. Very quaint, okay music, quirky but in its own way. Upon being handed a cocktail menu we noticed, £9.75 for the cheapest cocktail on their “favourites”. Wonder if that’s the owners favourites or ours?! After ordering our first cocktail we sat back relaxing and enjoying the social side of being with the group we came in with. None of that alcohol available. Okay, a different cocktail ordered. None of that available either. Why should I have to order 3 different cocktails at a cocktail bar to not be able to be served it? The 3 cocktails I did pick all sounded pretentious with “pisco” and “mezcal” in yet not actually tasting as good as we thought they sounded. Maybe go back to basics with the cocktail menu? Might actually be a good idea as a cocktail bar?

Popped into snug bar as it seems to be one of my husbands favourites. My husband want the burger or ribs sadly we were just too early for the lunch time menu and had breakfast which I was more than happy with, I ordered the smashed avocado with poached egg, hollandaise sauce with mixed seeds it was beautiful and wanted more. Ended up eating my husband toasted from his fry up he ended but the bacon a little too overdone for his liking. We should of communicated when ordering so that’s on us. The two breakfast was great value only coming in around £20. Only little negative I had is that the flat white wasn’t great and would of liked the option of sweetener as the coffee was so bitter. However It’s still remind one of mine and my husbands fav routine place to just pop in to grab some food on the weekend.

7 of us went for drinks late on Saturday night after having dinner elsewhere. One table was being cleaned by a waitress. We said could we have the table, she said when it was ready whoever came first could have it. 10 minutes later she was still trying to clean the table, she was very unhelpful and quite unpleasant. It was only Confetti from a party. Should have taken 2 or 3 minutes top. Ended up having to do it ourselves and still found rubbish in the corner with Chicken bones. Then was given the wrong change after buying a second lot of drinks.

I have always enjoyed brunch here, and the staff are all excellent and friendly - nothing is too much trouble. I would definitely recommend the all day breakfast menu! There is also a lovely walled garden strung with lights which is a great place to drink on a sunny summer evening. However, the decor inside is now looking very tired with worn tables which are always sticky and mucky. I think it's time the Hertford branch of The Snug Bar chain had a refurbishment!

Went in on Bank Holiday Monday for breakfast and were not greeted in the bar. Picked a table in the garden which was very dirty, and we realised had not been cleaned since the night before - the ash tray on the table was full, yet it was around 10am. The menu was very dirty and sticky too. We were not acknowledged, despite both staff on shift walking past us several times to bring food to one table and to clear another. In the time we were there, another couple got tired of waiting and left. We then decided to leave after waiting what felt like much too long.

Our son bought his Mum a cocktail making lesson at 'The Snug' for her recent birthday. We spent a very enjoyable couple of hours in the hands of Cocktail Maestro, Ed, who taught us each how to make 3 delicious cocktails, in a very informal and enjoyable experience. Part of the package was a choice of 4 starters from the Snug's food menu. All were delicious and perfectly complemented our wonderful cocktails.This really was a thoughtful gift and would be much appreciated by many people looking for something novel to do, as part of a celebration.

Came on a Saturday and discovered happy hour had been extended due to the football. Both had burgers (one beef and one chicken). Couldn't fault the food, it's exactly what the menu suggests a hearty tasty burger with a generous side of fries. Happy hour was on the same drinks so you had to have 2 of the same cocktail. Cocktails tasted lovely but were large, a bit too much ice and mixer meant I couldn't finish as it was just too much liquid. I would prefer the drinks shorter but maybe that's personal preference. So if you can't drink masses of liquid I'd try and find an extra short drink. Average seems harsh but I couldn't say very good as I wasn't overwhelmed by my visit. It was nice and if you catch the happy hour and have food it's definitely worth the visit.

The Snug is somewhere that I like to take my family for a treat, and we've always enjoyed the burgers and platters. never had a breakfast before, and won't again! The breakfasts were tiny, literally one tablespoon of beans, no sausages or mushrooms and two rashers of bacon. I know these things happen and it wasn't the fault of the chef but to have run out of these essential items Sunday midday for an ALL DAY BREAKFAST seems like poor planning! The eggs florentine were absolutely drowned in sauce and the whole thing was really not worth the excessively high price.Really really disappointing.On the plus side, the staff were friendly, polite and professional.

The whole experience of going out can be governed on how you feel on the day...Sunshine is a great commodity to follow you around...it lifts you up to a new level .......

I've visited The Snug a couple of times now for a bite to eat and never left dissatisfied. The portions are decent enough as is the food choice. I quite like the atmosphere and decor too. It's one of those places where once inside it has a cosy, friendly feel to it. If I had to describe the main positive, it's that it's one of those local establishments that's nice to call in to on a cold winters day. The type you fancy when you'd rather be ever so slightly away from the hubbub of some of the other local eateries.

Cocktails in this place are excellent and I doubt you will find better in town. Prices vary but can be expensive if you want something special. They have a great range and their own. Staff are friendly and helpful to recommend. Food is good. Sweet potatoes fries are a must! As is happy hour 4-7? 2-4-1 cocktails on their favourites a great place to always start a night out

My sister and I went here for lunch with her two young children. The man who works the bar and floor is amazing he's knowledgeable without being pushy and he's extremely helpful while being genuinely friendly and kind.10/10 for him10/10 for food (cheeseburger with hashbrowns and egg)Well done Snug!

I normally go here for a bottle of Prosecco with my girlfriends. Lovely atmosphere, especially on the bench seats, and the super little patio garden. The cocktails are also lovely, with a 2 for 1 at selected times

I have recently returned from my 3rd visit to this snug bar, I have visited a few of the snug bars and this one is definitely my favourite.. It is the most intimate and cosy.. the Cocktails are great.. Particularly the strawberry daiquiris! Staff are attentive and service has always been faultless. I shared the meze board with a friend and it was great value for money! Previously had the chilli cheese fries which were my fav! Would definitely recommend and return!

Have been in a number of times and have finally got round to writing a review. Great food, especially the burgers. And the lunch deal is great value. Full chicken breast burger, chips and a bottomless coke for less than £10. The cocktails are great and cant beat happy hour. Bartender even introduced me to the rum old fasion and now I cant get enough of them. The staff are the best around, always friendly attentive and cant do enough to help. Really set this place apart. Deffinitely worth a visit

had a table booked up with them for 9 people for a hen party. When we turned up they had let another group of people sit at our reserved table. The manager then denied any knowledge of emails that not only had he received but had responded to about the booking. When they finally sorted out the table the service was slow even though we had pre-ordered our food. Wouldn't go back couldn't organise a thing!!

Pretty pricey in here, quite small and can get crowded. Staff looked pretty fed up. Wouldn't recommend for large groups, ok for a quick drink then move on elsewhere.

We were invited by friends to a cocktail making class for a birthday party. The bartender turned party host was good fun and got the party going. We all had to make 3 cocktails to make and then drink. Party food was served which included stuffed jacket potatoes and chicken kebabs. We had a designated area for the whole evening and continued with the party once the cocktail making had finished. The cocktail making cost £35 per head and I thought it was a great way to celebrate.

False Advertising on a board outside using an out of date offer which states £10 for burger,chips and a mojoito . I asked for this to be told the offer isn't available. The cocktail menu isn't clear on how much alcohol is in the cocktails.. so basically you could be paying £8+ for a single measure. Happy hour ok.. but service quite slow. I was with two others and cocktails were being bought to us one by one which isn't really good when you're in a group Been there previously and had much better experience

My wife and I returned to Hertford for the first time in two and a half years and revisited The Snug Bar, we were delighted when we walked in and was firstly remembered by the now supervisor Jordan, who not only remembered us by name and for my wife's dislike to vodka, which brings me to the drinks, which were poured with flair, precision and fresh fruit, our drinks were brought to us in outside area which is a fantastic sun trap, ideal for a cocktail or two. After being made feel welcome and valued as customers, we decided to stop for lunch and when asked Jordan gave good recommendations of the whole menu, but also pointed out the value of the offers for the day I had the Snug bar's 10 years celebration menu, which consists of and bacon, chesse burger, skinny fries and a silver mojito all for just £10! the burger was cooked perfectly, it was juicy, the cheese melted and the bacon was crispy, with a lightly toasted bun, I would highly recommend The Snug Bar to all my friends and family going to Hertford, there is a wide range of drinks and the food is excellent, the nice touch to the already relaxed atmosphere is the warm and welcoming staff, that simply made our day revisiting Hertford, we both said that we will not be leaving it so long coming back again!10/10 food10/10 drinks10/10 atmosphere10/10 staffa must visit!!

First visit was 2007, when we moved to Hertford, we've eaten there at least once a week since. Staff are very friendly and attentive, especially Wednesday, Thursday and Sunday.Grandkids love it, they have been going to the Snug half their lives, must be something in the food.

I always enjoy the snug, I normally go for breakfast or lunch. Both are always good especially the burgers. They have a lovely sun trap garden and I'm looking forward To spending many summer afternoons there.On a night out I normally start in the snug and enjoy their happy hour. The cocktails are brilliant especially when they are 2 for 1.The staff are young however they can't do enough for you and are always happy and helpful.A great local!

Awesome Mac n Cheese and according to the husband and daughter "the best burger in Hertford" and that's some praise! Great value for money lunch menu and fantastic service from the lovely Penny and Jordan.This pub is family friendly - attracts lovely people and is very relaxed and yet service is excellent. The garden is a lovely suntrap and excellent for lazy lunches with friends. Hertfords friendliest pub that serves lovely food.
