The best restaurants serving British food in Adeyfield East Dacorum East of England

For the last year I have been working at Hemel Hempstead. This cafe was recommended by a contractor as a good place to eat. They were not wrong. Everytime my team and I are in Hemel we always go to Maylands Cafe. The place is spotless, excellent prices, excellent food and the staff are always helpful and polite. The hot drinks are superb and the cost is really good. The location offers decent parking in the immediate location and the food is both tasty and quick. They can get busy at certain times, however we normally get there just after 8am and get served, seated and fed rapidly. This is how one of my fav places to go when in the area.

We visited as part of the Torquay United fans to watch the team play Hemel Hempstead FC. I have visited on a previous occasion, and was surprised with some of the reviews, so was interested to see what it would be like. On arrival we found a parking space, and then walking into the Beer Garden could see the queue for the bar reaching outside! It was packed inside and out. We had a table booked for lunch (three of us) at 12,30pm and we were shown to our table on arrival, even though we were 15 minutes late arriving. We decided quickly what to have for lunch as the place was so busy, and queued up to order. We waited around 10mins to get to the front of the queue to order lunch/drinks, hardly surprising to be honest. We ordered scampi x2 (had to change one order from sausage & mash as they'd run out.) and a double cheese/bacon burger. We were told that the waiting time was approx 1 1/2 hrs for food with it being so busy. We doubled up on the drinks so we didn't have to go back to the bar. We actually only waited 45minutes, which given how busy the pub was, I thought was excllent. The food was hot and presented well, and was enjoyed by all three of us. I would like to thank all the bar and kitchen staff for their great work on Saturday, as it can't have been easy. I'm pretty sure that they would have been happy when we had all left at around 2.45pm! Thanks again!!!

Great service from Sarah J and Mercer our carver. My only criticism is the really dreadful music, really no 50s, 60s,70s,80s,or 90s. Just this constant Muzak made on a laptop in someone’s bedroom absolutely awful

Very good, happy with the meal - Very nice! Service was great by Sarah - Tip given... Will come again. In all a successful Sunday Lunch.
