The best restaurants in St Albans East of England

Ugh! Ordered delivery from here for the first time. Ordered Pork Fried Rice and Chicken Foo Yung. Did not get the Chicken Foo Yung and had to fight with the woman on the phone who claimed her driver did deliver it (he did not). So, we ate the Pork Fried Rice and applied through Deliveroo for the credit on the Chicken Foo Yung. The Pork Fried Rice that we did get had a very vinegary taste that I didn’t find pleasant. Will not be ordering from or going to this restaurant again.

The man I was riding from was very rude and and told me to shut up after asking for a Boeing 747

Food took a while to come but that was fine as we weren't in a rush. When it did arrive however it was cold, the fries terribly so. I therefore politely requested that they be changed for hot fresh ones. Our server, who I believe was also the manager or supervisor, touched the fried with his bare hands and agreed. We were left with our burgers and so I assumed they would be quick. This was not the case, and so by the time they had arrived, we had finished our burgers. I communicated this was disappointing and not acceptable, and I was met with only rudeness and attitude. I quote, "Do you want the fries or not?". I was absolutely dumbfounded by the lack of acceptance of the inconvenience and error, and also the rudeness. Such a shame, the burgers were nice and we had enjoyed coming here as a family. I won't be going back. I accept mistakes happen, and so I judge on how they are dealt with. This was one massive fail. Sack whoever this incompetent manager with zero customer service skills is. I'd put him on toilet cleaning duty only!

I absolutely love the place and the staff members. It's always such a good experience. If this place was slightly bigger for the night weekends, it would've been amazing. 😊 Being a regular, I do wish that the DJ would sometimes change the repetitive playlist. Good music, though. Thank you to everyone there. X

Had family Sunday lunch here today, was absolutely superb! Pre ordered a special fish dish, whole baked on the bone brill - finest fish dish we ever had! Sunday roast that our son said was the best chicken he has ever had, and a fantastic venison pie. Service was very attentive and friendly, and a great wine menu. 5* Plus!!!!

It's a small Costas in my opinion with limited seating in the heart of St Albans. The staff was a little busy but got the order correct making the experience worthwhile and also notified that I can get a free drink with my app reward if I wanted to. That was great to know. Recommend if In the area. Coffee was good quality and service provided was satisfactory.

Very nice dinner on Saturday at The Cock. The lamb was perfect and the cheesy bone marrow fries were a good pair. Service from the two girls Katie and Becks was very warm. Will come back.

So our order got given to someone else (or stolen) and the restaurant refused to accept fault. Told us to contact JustEat and that it was their problem now. No offer to replace the food, resolve the issue or anything, just an "oh well, not my problem". Clearly a bunch of frauds preying on the drunk and desperate and with no knowledge of how to run a business or deal with the public with any respect. As such, I am in no mood to show these people any respect in return. They have ruined the evening of hospitality staff with a rare Saturday night off by totally f*cking up our night-in together, leaving us scraping the bottom of the barrel at 10pm to find something that isn't a dodgy kebab. We tried to ring them back 35 minutes before the listed closing time without response. This screams shady business with something to hide. So let's not let them hide. They're the worst of the worst, the most uncaring and unsympathetic wastes of time and energy in the city. I would love for nothing more than them to go out of business tomorrow. Food sounded nice though, but I guess we'll never know 1/5*

First time of visiting the Beehive, but won't be the last, its a lovely pub with a great atmosphere and friendly staff. The garden is big with lots of booths and sesting and very comfortable. The food was also very good and lots of it! Definitely worth a visit!

Ali was a very kind and cheerful person while me and my friends were at the restaurant. Very helpful and welcoming. food was Delicious also

No surprises when it comes to food - typical coffee house food. Nothing to rave about. Drinks are well made and tasty. Lovely atmosphere

Lovely coffee and friendly staff but the toilet always needs a good clean, especially the bars to help disabled customers use the bathroom.

Pub open all day, from 10 for coffe moring Mon, Wed, Fri. Servibg Landlord and Bass but may change. Earnestly seeking a chef to serve food like they used to do.

Absolutely beautiful gem of a place you won't be disappointed. Friendly professional and staff who are simply wonderful. Just had a delicious cheese and tomato sandwich with side salad. That was perfect. They have a good and varied menu but pleased they have traditional snacks as well. The garden area is beautiful and so peaceful too. Friendly locals and huge car park.

Great atmosphere, genuinely welcoming whether coming in for a quick coffee, a pint, or food. Inside and outside facilities spotless!
