Absolutely amazing! Came for Mothers day the staff went above and beyond for not only myself but my mother and grand mother. Atmosphere was lovely and suited a range from my daughter 7 through to my 90 year old grand parents. The staff were very accomodating and were really helpful even though it was mother's day and busy. The food was deliscious fresh and beautifully served. We also had a lovely little touch of a mini bottle of Prosecco and chocolates for all the mums as well. Great selection of drinks, starters, main and desserts. We have driven down from Birmingham and will definately be returning when visiting family. Thank you!

Visited today unexpectedly and decided to try their Sunday lunch and what a surprise I got. Sunday roasts at pubs are a very difficult thing for me to review as I do a very good one at home ? so it's very hard for a pub (who churns then out) to compete and whenever I take the risk of ordering one, I'm frequently let down, but not today. I have to say it was one of the best pub roasts I've had in a very long time. Everything came out freshly cooked. Thick slices of tender meat, beautiful roast potatoes and perfectly green greens. I even experienced a freshly cooked Yorkshire, which is very rare. To top it all off, the staff were super friendly and helpful and they also welcome dogs. This pub struggles slightly with its appearance from the outside but today, it couldn't be faulted. The dining area is tastefully decked out and they also have a large garden, which is unexpected being on the High Street. Whoever the chef was today, I suggest you hang on to them

Nice pub, very popular with locals. Good food and great selection of beers. Clean toilets, friendly staff. Miserable door staff.

Visited this pub for a late weekday lunch. The draft cask Old Speckled Hen was cloudy and tasted foul. It was "off". The draft St Austell Tribute tasted like very dilute malt vinegar. The bottled Abbott Ale from the fridge was so cold it was tasteless.The Gammon Steak and the Crispy Pork Belly sounded nice but the chef was AWOL "expected back within the hour", so we found "The Star" just along the road with lovely well-kept cask ale and prompt food.

The female door staff are absolutely awful, I came to the pub last night to be told I?m not allowed in because i apparently verbally abused the female women who I have never ever seen in my life! I don?t live in Hoddesdon and I?ve been in that pub for 5 minutes before and never said a word to anyone. She was very very rude.

More of a review of the "door staff" they employ. I saw a guy on a bench in front of pub down a bottle of alcohol and then stagger past lone doorman without any challenge. I pointed it out to DS but was ignored. After having a smoke I went to go in and was asked for ID by the female DS who returned to door. I asked why I needed ID as I am 39, I asked if they were going to scan it which is common practice in some places. I was then asked why I was being obnoxious whilst she was eating peanuts and breathing peanut breath in my face. Was told I wasn't a regular and she wanted to see (fair enough). I then asked why the drunk lone male off the street never got asked. They both then started playing pass the buck on that one. I walked off as I don't waste time arguing with incompetents.

I was totally disappointed with the service we received. there was a girl called Paige with long blonde hair who was extremely rude and unwelcoming, I have been advised that the lady I am talking about is actually the manager of the pub ! I would not recommend anyone who wishes to eat or drink at this place due to rudeness and lack of customer care.
