The best restaurants in Roebuck Stevenage East of England

My wife and I had lunch here today. We had come in for breakfast before and it was excellent, so we were in the area and thought we would see what lunch was like. I ordered a Turkey, Ham and Leek pue with mash and vegetables. My wife ordered the Cottage Pie and vegetables both homemade for scratch. There was a bit of a wait for both, but that was fine as we were assured that these meals were homemade and cooked in the oven with not a microwave insight. When the food came out it was delicious and we would highly recommend it. It is a busy location and the staff are super friendly and reasonably priced. We will definitely be returning.

Great Breakfast!! We found this gem in our area great value for money all the weeks we ask for are no problem for them , very friendly staff Thanks will definitely be returning

Just had our first breakfast from here, it was delicious and such good value for money! I don’t tend to do a cooked breakfast because I don’t like all the oil and grease but this was gorgeous. Fab little place, super clean and super friendly. We’ll definitely be back!

This place is a go to for dinners if you feel like you want a perfect cuisine. Ali, my server, was a very nice man and very communicative with me and my family and he and Mahima completely uplifted our invigorating experience.

We visited in August and the place has changed name to Mollie's cafe. My omelette was really nice, but pretty small compared to what other local breakfast places serve. My boyfriend had a burger that was pretty small and basic. His salad was unwashed, you could see soil in the lettuce. Taking aside the important hygiene side around the salad, the burger price was too expensive for its taste, lack of components and size. Wouldn't visit again.

The burrito wrapped in foil was just warm, the burrito in the bowl was cold and the churros came without any chocolate sauce. An expensive waste of money

I had a very nice stay at this hotel. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The room was nice and warm even though it was very cold outside. The only small issue is the comfort of the bed. I prefer a softer bed. I did mange to sleep though.

No cups or cutlery as dishwasher wasn't working.We didn't drink all our coffee as it didn't taste very good.Floor needed sweeping and tables were messy.Didn,'t seem like they had enough staff. Very much below the standard I would expect from Costa.

ALWAYS SHUT. Every single time I go to get food they are closed.

We had a wonderful experience on Sunday. The food was delicious, but what really stood out was the exceptional service we received from Fiona. She truly went above and beyond to make our visit enjoyable. When she noticed us struggling at the carvery with our toddler, who was having a tantrum because he was hungry, she kindly helped carry the kids' plates back to our table. This small but thoughtful gesture made a huge difference for us. She also went out of her way to fetch us gravy when there was none left at the carvery, ensuring we had everything we needed for our meal. Fiona’s kindness and attentiveness made our visit so much smoother, and she is a credit to the team.

We went along at about half seven on a Saturday night. It was not empty, but far from full. The little shots of lemon stuff were never really explained. The food was OK. The fondue starter was probably not quite supposed to be like that, it seemed that they had cobbled it a bit. The salami pizza was nice, but the toppings did fall of the base more than is common with pizzas. The waitress was good, making us all individual bills, even though we had not asked for that. The parking was good on the Leisure Park there and it was handy for the station. I would go along again, if invited, but I would probably not initiate a booking.

Fantastic night celebrating New Year’s Eve The new owners and staff worked so hard to make it a fab night Relaxed atmosphere and great fun They really did get this right They are making this back into the local pub it should be - some where to go and have fun Thank you so much for all you efforts we appreciated it so much

We go to the Old Forge every few weeks. It is the place we choose by default when we decide to eat out without planning. We like the place and the atmosphere and the children are not complaining of the food. The portions are generous and the prices are adequate. The only issue is that it can be crowded, on weekends there is a waiting queue for the roast meat. If you go on Saturday afternoon or Sunday it is better to make a reservation at least half a day in advance.

Where do I start? Yet another fantastic experience at Nando’s, our go-to spot for an early evening family meal! From the moment we arrived, Chelsea welcomed us with a big smile and took us straight to “our family table”—a lovely personal touch that makes all the difference. She was brilliant throughout, meeting us at the order area and making sure everything was spot on. The food, as always, was fresh, hot, and packed with flavor. It came out super fast, served with a smile, and left us all feeling satisfied after a healthy and delicious meal—all at a great price, which is even more appreciated in these times. A special shoutout to the manager, Aspa, who always makes the effort to check in and say hello. That personal touch never goes unnoticed and keeps us coming back every week! We absolutely love it here—great food, great atmosphere, and outstanding staff who truly care. See you again next week!

Lovely fresh food…. McFlurries were very melted but we didn’t mind that at all. All great thank you!
