The best restaurants serving British food in Sarratt Three Rivers East of England

Great venue for fine food and e joying the spacious garden.

I had booked lunch in the Lounges for my partners birthday. The booking was made 7 days in advance and confirmed by email. The Grove called to confirm the booking the day before, and confirmed we wanted Sushi, not Afternoon Tea. They also sent an email to confirm again the morning of the booking. They mentioned nothing of not being able to sit in the Lounges on any of the confirmations. On arrival we were told they had overbooked, and The Lounges were now only for Afternoon Tea and we could go to the bar if we wanted. The Bar had business people on laptops and children running round, not the setting you want for a birthday lunch. Its disappointing that they overbook, but also that they didn't mention this when they confirmed the booking so we could change our plans. Clearly money over service and we won't be returning.

Enjoyed a top-rate Sunday roast.... Highly recommended!

We had a family birthday Afternoon Tea celebration here. After a 5 min wait? We were shown to our central table. All we had to decide which menu (Vegan and Vegetarian also available) and tea or coffee. I opted for Tandoori Chai - Big mistake as it was weak and tasteless. The savories were canapes not miniatures. Cold sandwiches were OK. The wraps were cold and a big disappointment. The hot Bombay sandwich was very good and we asked for seconds. The cakes were all nice but nothing special. The scones arrived after a delay but were hot and hit the mark. The service was attentive and the hostesses were greatOverall a good gift experience that was let down by being aimed at European palates rather than UK Indians.

Went for my daughter's 18th birthday. They knew it was her birthday - the person on the reception desk asked, as I had put it on the booking form, but no treat appeared. When the bill arrived I mentioned it was her birthday and the waiter did nothing. On the way out I mentioned it to the lady on reception and she asked if I wanted to take it home. That wasn't the point. So, I spent over £300 and went away feeling bitterly disappointed. It tainted what should gave been a lovely celebration. I would not go to The Grove for a meal again.

Staff are very friendly, atmosphere is warm and welcoming and beers are great. I ordered the beef burger and chips, and the cajun burger for my partner. The only let down was the portion size of the chips. We were in disbelief when the plates arrived. There were so few that it took us each a minute to finish them. The cost for both meals was about £30 and whilst the burgers were excellent, the chips didn't even form a slight pile, just a single, very sparse layer on the plate. Can't say I've experienced this before. We don't get to eat out much but leaving a pub still hungry is certainly an odd feeling.

What a lovely experience at The Boot at Sarratt. From the moment we opened the door to the pub/restaurant until the time we left, we were made to feel special and welcome. The food, drink and service were all excellent and the environment is a quintessential British Pub at its best. Extensive lunchtime menu, plus a specials board and the mini lunches, which are perfect for that time of day. Dog friendly area near the bar and the common opposite made it a lovely day out. Many thanks to Zoe who was a ray of sunshine and provided such good service and personality.
