The best restaurants in Walkern East Hertfordshire East of England

After a recommendation we hired the Brewery Tea Rooms for a reception after my sister’s funeral. We cannot fault the kindness, attention to detail and the service we received from the ladies at the Tea Room on what was inevitably a difficult day. All the food was very freshly made and tea and coffee in plentiful supply. The Brewery Tea Rooms met our needs perfectly and we can highly recommend a visit. Thank you so much ladies for all your efforts on our behalf.

Hi,The jolly waggoner. Yes I ate with friends on Friday evening, I had also booked for the Saturday night as well, until we ate ...all I can say is all 9 of us were very disappointed with the food.5 fish and chips 4 of which were very dry/over cooked,one of these were so dry i sent it back after removing the skin to find the driest piece of haddock I have ever been served overcooked  dried fish. And a teaspoon of mushy peas in a McDonald's sauce pot.... again very dry it all looked like it had been under a kitchen hot lamp for far too long.i asked for the replacement to have the skin removed before it was cooked as I like the batter but not the skin.I got another not quite so dry haddock but still with the skin on !. Don't suppose it's very easy to skin pre - battered frozen fish. Obviously there are no chef's in the kitchen just a cook who takes things from the freezer and drops them in the hot fat fryer. Such a shame about the food as the staff out front couldn't have been more helpful or apologetic. Needless to say we cancelled the booking for the Saturday night and you also lost out on possibly eight Sunday dinners as well. Regrettably, T.claridge.

Came here with my bridesmaids just for a dinner and drinks and the service was terrible. The husband and wife are rude, judgemental and shouldn't be working in hospitality with the attitude they have. Wouldn't recommend.

Highly recommend a stay at Bell cottages! The pictures online really don’t do the cottage justice in reality - it’s really gorgeous and kept to such a lovely standard. Has everything you need with lounge/diner, kitchen, bathroom, bedroom with double bed and a single bed and even a garden. Lots of little touches made a special stay - fresh flowers on the table and milk/cereal in the kitchen in case you arrive late. Rashieda was always on hand to check we were ok and went above and beyond helping with any requests we had. If you’re attending a wedding at Walkern Hall it’s the perfect location as well - a lovely village/country walk gets you there in 15 minutes with good/easy walking route. Pub still closed at the moment but you can get takeaway. Thanks again for a lovely stay!

Went there for a weeknight meal after a walk in the nearby countryside only to be told there is no food being served( despite there website saying otherwise) decided to stay for a drink and wish I hadn't bothered,the beer was awful and smelt strange,the garden is very run down and messy and the landlady was moody,all in all a terrible experience and won't be returning any time soon
