Visited on Sunday at short notice without booking and staff were lovely and accommodating. The menu looked really impressive but my mind was made up for the roast and it didn't disappoint. The pub was extremely busy but my food arrived in under ten minutes and nothing on the plate was cold ;)
The portion was huge and worth every penny of the £15 as the beef was so tender and cooked to perfection. I can't wait to visit again and try something else
Great pub great drinks and pudding to die for the best 😜
We came last Sunday for a family celebration and we were so impressed with the super friendly service and the super yummy roast dinner.
Would definitely return again when we are out that way again.
Many thanks
Excellent roast dinners, and always had lovely meals every time we’ve been here.
The children have smaller portions of whatever is on the menu and the plates are always clean when we’ve finished!
So much on my plate but still managed to eat all of it's it was so yummy �
One of my favourite places to eat out. Friendly, awesome food, and reasonably priced. Can't wait to come back again.
Fabulous roast dinner and lovely friendly pub.
Amazing food and amazing service as always �
First time eating here, went with friends the food was wonderful 😃
Thank you, we had a lovely Sunday afternoon.
We were a party of 6 and all the roast dinners were served hot and tasted as good as they looked! The deserts were very yummy too.
The produce used is top quality.
I would highly recommend this friendly pub.
Really yummy roast dinners served on a Sunday but puddings were a big disappointment. I ordered a brownie based off of an Instagram picture the pub posted which looked beautiful, with ganache like chocolate poured over the top. What arrived was much more 'slice of cake' consistency with chocolate syrup, the kind used for kid's ice cream. My partner's cheesecake had been warmed up as if to be defrosted and was just melting into the plate, but they kindly removed this from the bill. The staff were very friendly and welcoming. Maybe avoid the £7 desserts but certainly go for a lovely roast dinner!
Lively and (on a Friday evening) very busy. The food was fine....split chicken for me......when eventually it came after an hour and a half waiting. I suspect there was a problem in the kitchen as they did send out bread to pass the time. Decent beers, friendly if stressed staff. One suggestion: the noise levels in the restaurant area were excessive: a few softer surfaces would help absorb some of it. And maybe limit the tables booked if things are getting stretched.
Quality burger, very reasonable price & great management. Owner is incredibly friendly to customers & staff are a pleasure.
We found this pub after landing at Stansted and wanting to extend our holiday just a little longer.
And we weren't disappointed.
What a beautifully done out pub, with a menu that is inventive and flexible - in that they offer vege alternatives to most dishes.
The food was delicious to boot!
The staff were ace and it's definitely somewhere we'd like to spend more time - if only we lived closer.
Fabulous dog friendly pub (inside & out). Food top notch & friendly service. We have been back a number of times with our 2 spaniels, to eat in the dog friendly section.
Would definitely recommend
Great staff had my cousins wake there and thought it was so organized perfect the food was amazing thankyou x👍🕯🥂🇲🇫
Second visit this month, this time with the family of ten.
Simply wonderful.
Made everyone feel welcome, warm on a cold night, beautifully decorated, and the food and staff were amazing.
There’s a new manager here, and an extensive menu and selection for all pallets and all dietary requirements.
Great food, Great beer, and family friendly.
Thank you David, and all your wonderful staff, who made my wife’s birthday a night to cherish.
Jim and Karen.
Found this little gem of a place and was immediately felt welcome. Cosy pub with good atmosphere. Stayed for lunch after reading other reviews and although I had not pre booked was fitted in. The food was freshly cooked, and very flavourful, and hot. Certainly not massed produced and served up to order as I have experienced in other establishments. And the portion sizes were more than ample, even with my large appetite, almost leaving me unsure as to whether i could tackle a desert as well, but on the advice of another reviewer I sercumbed to ordering the apple crumble, and I was glad I had. Pleasant staff always willing to help and asking if everything was OK without being over intrusive. I would without doubt visit again even though its in excess of an hour drive from my home. The chef who works here unseen deserves a mention for the attention to detail like the subtle Basil taste from Roast potatoes, and freshly cooked veg. Will most certainly look forward to returning.
Very friendly welcome, nice beer Doombar, large range of wines and food in a very smart pub. The new owners are continuing to improve and decorate.
Warm and friendly pub:) David and Terry are very welcoming, there is a great selection of beers and the food is delicious. Loved the beef dripping sauce that came with my burger and the pork belly just melted in the mouth :)
Amazing place, great food, fab staff, super friendly and a really good atmosphere!
Great little pub and restaurant with a nice atmosphere, lovely food and good choice of beers. Will definitely be returning!
We visited The Dukes Head for the first time last week after being recommended by a family member and it didn’t disappoint!
The pub had such a nice feel to it and also set in a lovely quaint village.
The staff were amazing and the food and wine were just as good.
Very impressed and would highly recommend making a visit.
Thanks again and we’ll be back soon.
Great place with great drinks and food and the manager is very pleasant and nice 👍🏿 👌🏿 😀
One if the best in Hatfield
An issue happen when the order was delayed ...still the manager insist to offer free desert it show how keen to improve service and take care of clients
My partner and I came here for the first time this evening. I called at 3pm and managed to get a table for 5.30pm on a Sunday which is bonus. I believe some people were being turned away after we got there due to busyness.
We both ordered the chicken and whiskey pate, really tasty. We also both ordered the beef burger with fries and coleslaw. Everything was delicious but the portion was a bit smaller than we would have liked. Our desert was also really nice.
The waitress was so friendly and nice and when I said about the size of the meal she said she would definitely tell the chef and appreciated the feedback. We felt very comfortable here and the ambience was really great. A few small doggos were seated inside too.
