The best restaurants serving American food in Welwyn Hatfield East of England

Tops Pizza used to be my go-to spot for pizza in the UK, but after my recent experience at the Hatfield branch, I’m reconsidering. The pizzas lacked flavor, with barely any cheese and no real taste overall. To make matters worse, the person preparing the pizzas wasn’t wearing gloves and didn’t wash their hands beforehand, which was quite off-putting. Despite ordering two super large pizzas, we were so disappointed that we ended up leaving most of the food. This experience was a real letdown, and I’ll be looking elsewhere for pizza in the future.

Our first visit to this upmarket steak chain was at the branch which is just round the corner for us in Brookmans Park, an area that is not particularly blessed with good restaurants. It's certainly convenient and easy to locate and there is plenty of parking space though the car park was pretty full indicating a busy restaurant. And that was indeed the case when we entered. There's an upstairs too and that looked very busy along with the street level. The first impressions of the restaurant itself are quite favourable with polished dark wood everywhere and a good array of wines (mostly red of course) displayed in glass cases. We were shown to our table without delay and ordered drinks including red wine, local beer and some soft drinks. Between the three of us we ordered the Butchers' Block and though it said that it was meant for two (one if really ambitious) we found that it was great for the three of us. It comprised a variety of meat with some sides though we all felt that the best cut was the ribeye, which was cooked well to the medium-rare that we requested. The onion fritter accompanying it was very tasty and far superior to onion rings and the bone marrow was juicy too. You get two sides with this platter - we found the new potatoes good and the fries were alright but of the extra sides that we ordered, the mac 'n' cheese was a little underwhelming. We had also ordered a half plate of ribs, which were also disappointing - very dry and with very little meat on the bone. Before we had our main course we were served an excellent crispy salad bowl (with a wide choice of dressings). But the main quip was that we had to wait an hour for the main course and the salad came only 10 minutes before the main. Surely the salad could have come sooner and indeed an hour for the main was really too long. The service was decent and friendly though our waitress pushed us hard to order a dessert. They don't implement a mandatory service charge, which is rare these days, so it's up to you to tip.

Love the food. Tasty and always friendly to me

not only was my order and hour late but it was stone cold to the point I couldn't eat it

Amazing service. Louise was incredible. Helped set up for a party, lovely village pub. Would recommend as had a really lovely time. They do FREE parties so definitely coming back

Disgusting staff made me look stupid because they got order wrong ! Ordered a Might Bucket for one when I got to pay she wanted £!7 !! When I told thats not right she started talking about a APP ? I ordered just now on drive thru ? Then another clueless member of staff asked whats wrong whilst another member of staff stood behind her laughing ! In the end I gave up as none of the staff had a clue what I was talking about.Awful place avoid

Friendly staff, clean, and quick service. Staff are students, but what do u expect from McDonald’s. They have to deal with young people being abusive coming in and harassing staff, but they are young themselves.
