We have been in for drinks a few times since the new tenants took over the running of this lovely village pub/restaurant, and now the refurbishment is complete we decided to call for food.So we visited Tuesday evening and were certainly not disappointed.Greeted by the new landlord with a smile and a welcome, taken straight to our tables where he took our drinks order, and gave us the menu.Our drinks arrived and our food order was taken, soup for myself and the crab dish for my wife. Both were delicious.I had the lamb burger and my wife the veggie burger for mains, served with skin on chipped potatoes and homemade slaw. We couldn't manage a dessert !.All excellent. We then retired to the bar with another round of drinks.Must mention our waitress, who was attentive, pleasant and efficient, as if things mattered to her rather than we just dealt with 'as a matter of course'The refurbishment looks good, particularly the bar area, the place gives you a feeling of "going out" for the evening which we like. The staff were friendly.The drinks range is extensive, nice house wines, and a choice of ales on the hand pumpIn all, a lovely evening out, good food, reasonable prices, friendly service. We will be back.Thank you so much for your very kind words. We do try hard to make every single guest feel welcome and take feedback to heart. It was a pleasure hosting you and we look forward to seeing you again soon.

We decided to try somewhere different to celebrate our sons birthday as we have probably ate in every other restaurant in Hitchin throughout the past 20 years.On arrival we were greeted by a friendly waitress, and overall looking and listening to what was happening around us everyone appeared happy and indeed all of the staff looked very attentive and friendly to their guests.We decided to share some of the starters and the portions we very good, no one was left feeling they hadn't had enough. The quality of the food was equally very good.I wasn't feeling the best having just got over losing my voice, so only had a glass of the house white and my daughter had a glass of house red. I wouldn't say that the wine choice was the best decision I ever made, but it was drinkable. So I would advise that you spend time chosing a nice bottle of wine.My sons and husband chose the steak and they ate everything in the plate, they really enjoyed their meal. My daughter and I chose the pork chop, which I have to say was also a great choice. The flavours were excellent and we both ate everything (except for the bone!!)Only a few of us had dessert because the portion sizes were too big for me to move onto a dessert at the endOverall this restaurant /pub is a lovely place to eat amongst friendly attentive staff. I would certainly go back again and would therefore recommend that you try it next time you are in Hitchin.
