Turned up for a Sunday roast, told sorry no roast potatoes as they had run out of potatoes at 2:30pm. Decided to try the fish and chips. Bad move unless you like your fish batter soggy and cold and what seemed liked a young child’s portion of chips. I could have knocked up the same food and made it better from the Asda 300 meters away for about £4. Overall a very poor experience and won’t be revisiting.

Great pub ... Good beer .. Abbot is a big seller..gets full quick ..big car park .. food is higher quality than 'pub grub' .. sitting outside in summer is ok if you like grease smells from the extract fan - depends on where you sit. Haven't spent an evening there so not sure on the atmosphere.

Booked a table for 4 of us to celebrate our wedding anniversary this evening and it was dreadful. They had no steak, no mashed potatoes and half the puddings were missing. Ended up having a burger which was burnt on the outside, under done on the inside and had bacon and cheese which I didn’t order. Then we basically got ignored. No one came to ask if we wanted a dessert so we had to go to the bar and ask for the bill. Very disappointing evening.

Came here last Saturday evening with a friend. We weren't overly hungry and in a bit of a rush as attending an event in hitchin. Having looked through the menu I fancied the camembert sharer as a main course and decided would have a dessert after. My friend decided it sounded good too. We were pleased with our choice. Freshly prepared, hot and tasty. Toasted garlic ciabatta with crispy chicken strips, salami and two dips, served with a lovely melting mini camembert. We chose cheesecake and chocolate fondant for dessert equally delicious. Our waitress sorry can't remember her name, was friendly and efficient. I will definitely be back . Many thanks

Three Moorhens Hitchin Hill by the roundabout . Large car park . Building as you enter could do with some tlc. A warm welcome when we entered. Very quiet when we visited so was nice to receive table service . Drinks came prompt and only a short wait for the mains. Pie & mash with veg and a chicken dish were well presented on hot plates. All was good , not 5 star but ok for a pub chain meal. Staff very nice , would call in again.

Can't complain about the food . It was good value for money. Beer was well kept and went down rather too well!! We last went to the 3 moorhens about 20 years ago. Unfortunately, it looks like it hasn't been painted since !! The restaurant area wasn't bad but the bar area was noisy . Staff were OK and friendly. I'm not sure we will return for a while because there are other pub restaurants nearby to try, but as I say, the food was good if you fancy basic pub grub.

Nice looking large pub from outside. You would expect from the lovely building and lovely big garden the usual Greene King Quality however the decor was clearly in need of refurbishment. Food was good overall especially the steak. However the salad accompanying various meals and starters looked fairly wilted and as if it had been out of the fridge for some time or possibly not as fresh as it should have been. Very good quality cask ale and drinks including Abbott Ale and GK IPA very nicely pulled and kept. Womens toilets according to my wife were rather unkept with blockages and not the levels of cleaning or upkeep you would expect from a big pub company. Bar area was busy but rather cramped as various big tables had been placed in front of the bar for a group of rowdy guys to watch the football from meaning you could only get to the bar easily from either end. We sat in the restaurant but there was very little customer service or welcome from staff. 3 male staff members were hanging around the bar for the most part watching the football and chatting with football loving locals instead. We ordered from the bar in the end as there was no restaurant service to speak of. Food was reasonably well cooked and served promptly and other than that service mediocre. Overall a potentially lovely pub but for a Saturday evening fairly quiet and obviously being let down overtime by what seems very relaxed and I bothered staff. Certainly not crying out for a further visit unless a recent manager is appointed who cracks the whip with the young 20 something staff members. Definitely missing a female touch !

Went for some birthday drinks in March and have been back for more this month. Didn’t eat on this occasion but I really must complement this pub on the quality of their drinks. The crispness of the beer is amongst the best, if not the best around. It really makes a difference, not having to return to the bar because of petty things, such as dirty glass or unclean pint. A problem so many other good places seem to fail at.

We arrived mid afternoon, about 15:30ish. I was starving and thought why not try here, it's been some time. I walked in and the interior was pretty empty, asked for a table to eat, and was promptly shown to the back, tucked away. The surrounding area was pretty messy, food on the floor, on the tables, used napkins etc. As I said it was late afternoon, they could've been extremely busy and not had time to clear away. We looked at the menu and ordered drinks. The girl returned and said that my wife's choice of drink was not available and went away to fetch her second choice. On her return with the drinks, she then proceeded to pass us a list of food on the menu that was unavailable. In fact she would have been better passing a list of items that were available. Basically the pie, which neither of us wanted. The staff actually explained that the food delivery had not shown up that day, I'm just surprised that they hadn't told me right from the very outset that they had very limited food left. We finished our drinks and left. Overall, I can't put the blame on the staff for the shortage, but the overall cleanliness is down to the staff and management, and I can't say I was impressed. They may be understaffed, I don't know, it seems to be the way of things now that companies will strip back to the bare bones in the pursuit of profit. Next time we're in the area we'll probably try somewhere not too far down the road.

Probably the best meal we’ve ever had there and we have been a few times over the years. Only negative things were the heating wasn’t on so was a little cold sitting at our table and we didn’t realise we had to order at the bar at first.

Earlier today I dropped my dog at the Groomer in Vanstone Parks Garden Centre, my car to the car wash guys then went into the cafe after a look around the garden centre. It was just after noon. I ordered an omelette with salad and crisps with a pot of tea. Paid for my order and sat outside with my plant pot which had my order number on. The waitress came out with a pot of tea, going well so far! When the waitress brought my order it was an omelette on a rather large plate! I asked where the salad was and was advised this it the breakfast menu, you don’t get anything with it then walked away. I thought I’d read the menu incorrectly until the lady who also sat outside was served an omelette with enough salad you could say it had its own garden! What a pity the service wasn’t a patch on it as when the previous owners/ managers ran the Orchard Cafe. The Groomer did a lovely job on my dog and the car valets made my car sparkle. Just been let down by the cafe’ won’t be going there again

Chicken stuffed with spinach, roasties, Yorkshire pudding with vegetables on the side. My partner had the Roast Pork which was equally tasty. Honey comb cheesecake didn’t touch the sides! A delight not to have to cook Sunday lunch, thank you all. We will be back 🙂

Having been recommended to eat at this pub we were very disappointed with the Sunday lunch today. Food wasn’t hot. Beef was tough, one of our party struggled to eat it. Mentioned this to a member of staff who apologised but no further recompense offered. We dined in what appeared to be a shed, cold air blowing through gaps in the structure.
