The best restaurants in Hertsmere East of England

Unbelievable pizza and steak. Couldn’t recommend it more. I had garlic bread, steak and truffle fries. The dough is so fresh. 10/10

We hired the smaller private room for a family tea to celebrate a special birthday. There were 15 of us, grandparents, parents and children. From the start of our relationship with Mabel's administrator, Martine, discussions flowed easily - price, one glutenfree guest, one vegetarian, lots of details - nothing was too much trouble. On the day there was plenty to eat - sandwiches, scones, cakes and a drinks bar with prosecco. Sara, our waitress, was a star, making sure everyone had everything we wanted including extra cups of tea or coffee. Everyone enjoyed the relaxing informal event. The room was full of Victoriana and the children loved the experience and also the opportunity to explore the garden (with adult supervision). Our family tea at Mabel's was everything we wanted for our special day. Huge thanks to Martine and Sara for all their beautiful hospitality and care.

The is a locals pub with a friendly atmosphere that extended to visitors like me. A lovely pub setting good food. The house beer "Black Horse" was served to perfection

Excellent service and good food, I had a pitta with smoked salmon and cream cheese, it tasted lovely. With that I had a cappuccino that was great as well, I appreciate that they asked if I wanted chocolate on top but what I want is espresso&milk. (It was just a couple of degrees to hot and not exactly the taste I wish for but that is just my personal preference and really not judgeable since it might be perfect for someone else, thus the 4 instead of 5) All in all a great place for a breakfast and I would definitely go there agan.

The food was delicious and the service was impeccable. The staff were so kind when our daughter dropped her hot chocolate - they gave us another one for free and made sure it was cool enough for her to drink. Thank you. We loved the outdoor seating area. So cosy.

Nice clean restaurant with a variety of food options. Kid named Alin took my order and was I was very impressed by the quality of the service.

The bar staff were very polite , fast and friendly Food was excellent There was always enough staff all the time Jodie was exceptional She made amazing Espresso Martini

Why haven’t I heard of this place before? Honestly, the best cup of coffee I've had in years. Amazing place. You can really tell the owners are passionate about delivering a super high standard offer. Blows the chains out of the water! Well done guys.

A wonderful afternoon tea in beautiful surroundings, lovely traditional tearoom and excellent service . Couldn’t fault it . Can’t wait to return.

Excellent service, quality food

This cafe has got it right in every way -friendly staff, quick service, generous portions cooked really well, great prices, clean and simple decor. Please support this local business and enjoy a good meal. The smoothies/milkshakes are yummy if you fancy a treat.

Best wraps and pittas in Darkes lane. Been here a few times, sometimes for a Giro, sometimes a cake, sometimes just coffee. Definitely the best in Darkes lane even if just for a coffee and best value for money. The staff are so friendly and extremely helpful. Can’t recommend highly enough.

Excellent service and very good value for money,prompt delivery service.I have eaten on couple of occasions lamb and chicken wrap with salad, very generous portions.

It’s a kebab place with traditional Turkish staff and really good Turkish food. Big portions and v fresh salad. I never complain and use it as I hardly cook when I have to stay here.
