The Wheatsheaf Pub in East Hertfordshire

A proper traditional pub. Real ales and an open fire. Good welcome from the landlady.

They only serve cheese and meat platters, and Scotch Eggs/Pork Pie, so the food choice is limited. But the cheese choice itself is very good.

I regret having to give the Catherine Wheel a terrible review because I have eaten there before without problem. This review is not directed at the servers but our family meal on Good Friday fell far short of our expectations. Our party of 10 included 3 young children but our meals were not served for over an hour following the starters. 3 plates of lamb were then returned because they were under cooked - raw in places, tough, sinewy and impossible to cut. They eventually took these off the bill but their first reaction was to maintain there was nothing wrong. We declined their offer to re cook or replace the meals because, by then, we just wanted to leave. Maybe someone in the kitchen just had a bad day but it certainly spoiled our Easter get-together.

The Brewery Tap Pub is a fantastic spot that truly impresses in every aspect. The food is excellent, featuring a diverse menu with delicious options, including a standout Sunday roast that is not to be missed. The staff are friendly and attentive, ensuring a welcoming and enjoyable experience. The atmosphere is vibrant and inviting, perfect for socializing or a relaxed meal. Highly recommend visiting for a memorable dining experience!

Stopped for a coffee one afternoon. Pleasant staff and quick service. Clean and well laid out. Had the pub almost to ourselves. Will definitely come back and try the food options.
