The best restaurants serving British food in Welwyn Hatfield East of England

An absolute gem in old Hatfield. Beautiful proper pub. Darts. Juke box. Board games. Log fire. Dog friendly. Mark is so warm and welcoming. Really is the jewel in the crown. So lucky to have this as my local. Can’t recommend enough. Occasionally have live music. The bands are outstanding.

Went to see a UB40 Tribute band only to be told it wasn't going ahead as there car wouldn't start not very professional won't be going back there in a hurry

Great food. Friendly service. Great value.

Lovely spur of the moment Sunday roast.

lovely meal for the 2 of us as managed to get a table on christmas eve. Venison and whole of meal full of flavour and cooked to perfection. Good size portions. Lovely evening in a old beamy cosy pub.

We visited end of September, bar staff said they were closing that day.

We have eaten here before on Sundays when there is an excellent carvery-style menu. Although this time we visited mid-week, there was still a roast dinner on the menu. The staff kindly agreed to serve less brussel sprouts and more roast potatoes! The whole meal was delicious and very good value. We'll be back.

Visited the Secret Thai Garden in Coach and Horses, recommended by friends. The food was delicious, beautifully presented and very reasonably priced. The waiter who served us was lovely . He even walked us to the car with an umbrella because of the heavy rain. Unfortunately it is closing end of November but there is another Secret Thai Garden in Potters Bar which we intend to visit. I can recommend the Green Curry and my friend loves the duck in pancakes

Delicious food and fantastic service from the team at the Crooked chimney! Thanks all!

The drive was nice with view of the country roads. On arrival rooms are very basic not much to view apart from the Pods and fields. Unfortunately, there are no facilities at the hotel e.g. spa, gym, etc just a bar with small sitting area that closes at 12am. As your in the middle of no where you literally spend time in the room & go dinner then back to room😮‍💨 The hotel doesn't offer any other food e.g. Breakfast apart from the dinner which you pay for in the stay which is also overpriced. Personally, Food & drinks overated it needs to be reviewed as you can get a better variety of quality food in other places especially local vendors on your high street. The building itself is historically beautiful for private hire as you can utilize the grounds but waste of money for travel, dine & stay. You can better value & quality in Holiday Inn! Recommend to visit Pods in London instead more to do for a day & night trip.

Ordered the roitissery chicken it was dry burnt and cold. Was very disappointed with the food. The staff were polite. Wouldn’t go there for dinner again. We only went there because we couldn’t not get a booking at the wonderful bulls head restaurant in Turnford

I cannot recommend breakfast with Santa enough. It was amazing. My 3 year old, myself and my mother were greeted at the door by elves who had an activity pack and breakfast ready for my little one, which was prepared really well and allergy free for him which I'm really impressed about. The adult breakfast came quickly and was really good. Followed by songs and Santa, who I can say is the best Santa we've ever seen. The layout, interaction and every detail was amazing! This is our 2nd year doing this and we will continue every year. Thank you Dutch Marketplace!

Food and service always on point but it's so hot in there can't enjoy a meal. Please fix the ac...

They really need to sort out their system. Not for their first time we went for breakfast and booked in the restaurant. They couldn’t find the booking but said sit anywhere. We took a table only to be told we were in the conservatory and we should order at the counter rather than be in the restaurant and get table service. Then told when I tried to order an extra item “it doesn’t work like that” when we’d done exactly that the previous time. Food was ok but the needlessly over complicated system (are you in the conservatory or the restaurant, when it all looks part of the same place)!really lets them down.

I went to buy a loaf of bread. The lady serving just finished cleaning up and without washing hands or puting on protective gloves picked up a loaf with her fat grubby hands and put it in the slicer. I left. I wasn't going to buy filthy food.
