The best restaurants in North Hertfordshire East of England

Absolutely delicious food! So many veggie options and the tofu was perfect. Would definitely buy again.

Never again, ordered a takeaway for family over £60 told it would be an hour which turned out to be over 2 hours, kept telling us when we rang that it was around the corner (it wasn't) cold when it arrived. Vegatarian dish had chicken in it. Promised a, refund which we never got.

We were going to a party nearby and opted to stay over at The Bull, for a Village Pub with rooms, it is very clean and comfortable with ample parking. The staff in the pub were warm and welcoming, the “on site chip shop” meant we could have a quick bite before heading to the party and they kindly ordered a cab and provided the number to contact for the cab back. Breakfast was very good and served with a smile. This is just what it says on the tin, with the addition of friendly staff.

Very positive staff, full of energy and enthusiasm and the service is good too. I’m definitely coming back.

Having read some reviews now, I can see that the rude way we were treated yesterday by a female member of staff is the norm at Costa Hitchin. I arrived with my young son and baby girl. We started to order and I was told abruptly that they were closing soon. I continued ordering and was given the drinks. We sat down. A polite man with a Christmas hat on came round gently saying they were closing. I said okay. I hadn’t realised that the till closing would also be the store closing, as many coffee shops stagger this by half an hour or so, and so I had started breastfeeding my daughter. Within 1 minute of the gentleman telling me they were closing, the woman said, “How long are you going to be? We are closing.” I replied that I’d only just been told and she snapped, “I did tell you. Now you’ve started feeding the baby. So how long are you going to be? If it’s 5 minutes maybe I can give you 5 minutes.” Her manner was aggressive. I immediately stopped feeding (and had to leave with a screaming baby) and said, “fine, I’ll leave right now, but we won’t be returning.” The woman carried on ‘telling me off’ (this was how it felt with her aggressive tone) as I left. I realise that the mistake was mine in sitting down to feed my baby, but I just feel the tone and argumentative nature was rude and unnecessary. We definitely will not go back - there are a lot of coffee shops in Hitchin and we will choose others every time in future. I was after a coffee and a chat with my small son while feeding his sister and instead I was told off and kicked out!!

Our first time at the Jolly Postie and definitely will be coming back! The service and food was amazing! Big thank you to Lily our waitress too she was wonderful!

Very bad place to eat font fill drinks up rude and food is not up to standerds of mc ds

Used to be great. Decided to go again and what a mistake. Food inedible. Fish cooked in stale oil. Staff surly and it didn’t look very clean, Hope they didn’t overcharge me and good advice from others to check your bank statement. So many great places to eat in Baldock but this is no longer one of them.

Great shop start by saying staff are polite friendly at Royston, went in for lunch today Friday, beautiful haddock and decent portion, same when have the chicken proper potions, better than the Camborne shop,

The advertised wi - fi didn't exist Very noisy room needs double glazing , over priced , desperately needs redecorating, I will definitely not return

Tried for the first time last night and absolutely loved it! Our new go to. Arrived quickly (within half an hour). Will be recommending.

I order at least once per week from here for my elderly relative. The order wasn’t delivered and when I called to enquire, firstly the girl hang up on me and then I received a second call from someone who said it wasn’t their problem and denied having any details for the driver. They are only interested in taking your money and not interested in customer service. They have an appalling attitude and I would give this shop a miss at any costs. Appalling and disgusting attitude from their staff

First time having breakfast here. Very good espresso and friendly service in a pleasant cafe area. Very disappointing scrambled egg on toast. Once slice of cold toast (which made it chewy) with a decidedly rubbery, solid lump of scrambled egg. It was lukewarm and was not freshly made; I suspect it had been done in the microwave and left to congeal. Not sure what eggs were used, but soft, warm and yellowy it was not! It was quite orangey and had no taste of eggs and a rubbery texture. Not a £5 meal; I could definitely have got something much tastier for less in town...Not a cafe to be recommended for food.

Visited for coffee with our grandchildren. Ordered two latte coffees after twenty minutes told coffee machine not working given two instant coffees no refund. Place filthy litter on floor table dirty. Service awful

Always good food and very polite staff the piri chickin is amazing!! This shop has been is business for nearly 30 years
