The Meating Room @ The Steamer Pub, Welwyn in Welwyn Hatfield

Found The Meating Room by chance, looking for somewhere which wasn’t a chain restaurant. When we arrived we were really warmly welcomed by staff (and the regulars!), and while the dining area was set up for a party it was explained that we could sit in the bar area which was fine with us. The promotional photos of the food on Google promised trendy-looking handcrafted burgers in the style of somewhere like Craft & Cleaver, and while they didn’t arrive in enamel dishes, the burgers, fries and chicken wings were all far superior to your standard pub fare and very reasonably priced. The children’s menu offered a choice of burgers or chicken nuggets, and our little boy was also offered colouring pencils which was a nice touch. All in all a very pleasant experience.

Turned up to collect after ordering on JustEat to be told it hadn’t gone through, despite payment being made. Told it wasn’t their fault and no apology. Had to wait for them to do the order, but seemed rushed as chips weren’t cooked (and not rosemary salted as ordered). Hardly any chips with order anyway. Not good value for money. Won’t be ordering again!
