The best restaurants serving British food in Bushey North Hertsmere East of England

Lovely pub which was very busy. Food really tasty and drink quality good too. The owner brought out a dish for us to try on the house! We were made to feel very special. Thank you.

Shocking experience. Started off okay, went in got seated, got drinks and indicated here for carvery and was pointed to the station. Here’s where it goes wrong, waited five minutes for a member of the ‘carvery team’, waitress had to go to kitchen and shout to get their attention. They arrived walking through the restaurant drinks and phones in hand, didn’t wash hands and straight to us. Meat looked like it had been there a while and we just got grunted at. I opted for mix of beef and pork, partner for beef. All we could see was fat. This was reiterated by the time we got to the table and couldn’t eat any of it. Worst bit, all the roast trimmings and grave were cold, like warm at best. Gravy stone cold, yorkshires were stale. When I was eventually checked back on, the waitress explain that is a carvery and it would never be fully hot (anyone that knows anything about food handling knows that hot held food is held to 63 degrees, our meals were barely room temperature) and she could microwave it for me. I said no, I didn’t want it and had lost my appetite. She’s asked my partner if all was okay, my partner said no but she wanted the potatoes as was starving. That is all she ate, just the spuds. Waitress cleared the table and after 30 mins came back to us and asked if we wanted anything else, I said no just the bill. This took another 15 mins and she came back and said she charged me for only one meal, rolled her eyes and walked away. I waited for another 10mins as I wanted to ask her to remove the other meal and I would pay for a portion of potatoes and the drinks, she never came back so I left the money on the table. At no point was a manager called or informed of the issues. Pretty crap and piss poor really!! I know it’s cheap, but I expect properly prepared food. Won’t be going back.
