The best restaurants serving Other cuisines food in Harpenden West St Albans East of England

Harpenden has no shortage of ahem coffee shops. But coffee here is head and shoulders above the rest. This haven tucked just off the High Street is where I go, particularly if I’ve been travelling; to rest my gyros and remind me what good coffee tastes like. Always a warm welcome from Damien and his crew. Highly recommend this place!

We found this coffee shop thanks to the sign in the alley way . We came in through the side gate to a lovely garden space. Then headed inside where there are a couple of tables tucked away. We ordered 4 drinks and sweet and savory baked goods from what was available on display. The savoury scone was delicious and the peanut butter cookie cup was amazing. Great for a catch up over coffee.

Very good meal. Really enjoyable and food served hot. Super staff….. Shame about two female customers , aged around 70. Very loud - unbelievably - and one took a video call from her daughter and grandson, who were on holiday. She then had a VERY loud conversation in which the whole restaurant could hear. Do these people not realise we really don’t care about their lives or are interested in them . We don’t force them to listen to our conversations. Very rude and no self awareness.

Xmas Eve - super busy pub great atmosphere . Wonderful foof and service super attentive ! Team not phased by incredibly busy pub Brilliant!

The food was AWFUL and the wine so overpriced!! We went for the Christmas party food menu (if you have booked to go for this, I would advise you to cancel and go somewhere else) I love my food, but I struggled to finish any of my courses as the food was so bad! I had goats cheese “cheesecake” for starter. The goats cheese was bland, the base was indescribable and inedible and the beetroot sauce tasted frozen. Main meal I had the Turkey roast. Not a generous portion for the price. One carrot, one parsnip, one tiny burnt circle of stuffing and one slice of Turkey. The chef even forgot to add the pigs in blanket, so we had to ask for them, which arrived after we had finished the main. Pudding was crumble and custard. The custard was flavourless and tasted of congealed milk. To top it, I ordered 2 bottles of the rose I had had a glass of at the bar, just a basic Cote de Provence, so was so shocked when the bill came and it was £40 a bottle!!! All in all a disgusting meal and overpriced wine!

Staff are all very welcoming which gives the pub a nice atmosphere. Food is a very reasonable price and tastes great!

Lovely bright clean airy store all the staff was very attentive and friendly we requested music to b turned down or off as was carrying out a conference call the manager did so and asked to inform once meeting finished to turn back on lovely flat white

Homely friendly comfortable atmosphere, visiting after a Christmas pantomime

Lovely coffee and friendly staff but the toilet always needs a good clean, especially the bars to help disabled customers use the bathroom.

This was our first time staying at the Old Cock and it didn't disappoint. The breakfast and the service were excellent.

Rip off going to a cafe next time much cheaper! and you can sit down to .jgkjg kjgkib njmkghkj ,bhkgki mkjgkj mvhgchf mbvkjbm jfhyfjv mhgkj

Great little place, nice location and the specialty blends set them apart. Staff are also very helpful! Also like the bike parking options and outdoor seating
