Reviews & Awards
It’s very easy to shout about yourself from the rooftops, but it’s not our kind of thing. Fortunately, there are customers who are happy to do it for us…. so a big thanks to all our supporters! To see what folk say, just click on the logos below to read the full review.
We were properly blown away in May ’25 when we were bestowed the Best Destination Pub in Herts and Beds by Muddy Stilettos. Repeating our success in the same Awards in 2023.
We are pretty chuffed to have just been awarded the Hertfordshire Dining Pub of the Year for the 12th time for 2021 from the GOOD PUB GUIDE.
Another award we are very proud of was the pub restaurant gong at the inaugural FREEFROM EATING OUT Awards way back in 2014. Plus we can’t ignore the great users of RESTAURANT GURU who have given us their ‘blessing’ for great food and also our wonderful outdoor seating!
Safe to say, your ongoing support has helped us to this recognition and we will continue to work tirelessly to deserve your affection.
