The haddock cakes and the ploughman's lunch were really tasty and reasonably priced (£7.50 and £6.50 respectively, May 2014).

If you're looking for a good pub, it doesn't get much better than this…read more Lovingly called simply "The Axe" by locals, this pub is in a different league to most other rural pubs. I'll explain why and try to be concise. The cuisine is exceptional. There's a good selection of quality drinks. The service is excellent. The atmosphere is always friendly and welcoming -- the sort of place where complete strangers tend to strike-up conversation. The location is perfect, overlooking the Village Green, with a big beer garden behind, and a vast playing field behind that. It's a lovely village, nestled in the gently-undulating farming landscape of rural north-east Herts -- no wonder Braughing was recently awarded the prestigious "Village of the Year" accolade. The pub's menu always includes the best of local produce, from locally-reared beef to local pork sausages, alongside popular country pub dishes. (Braughing village is famous for, among other things, the delicious local sausages, and this is a good place to sample them.) Did I mention the pies? A different pie every day it seems, and you won't find better pies than these. I don't make a statement like that lightly.

Tuesday evening is a good night to go as they do a special top and tail evening. you pay for the main course and get a free starter and pudding - FANTASTIC VALUE. The food is always served in a timely manner. The pub is split into several areas which is nice if there is a larger group of you. There is also accomodation available - I have never used this, but it was a new addition a couple of years ago so is probably of a good standard.

The current owners have created more of a restaurant-pub atmosphere. The food is absolutely great for a village pub, admittedly mostly at restaurant prices, but definately worth it. The staff are friendly and the service good, dishes delivered quickly and the quality of food great. The previous owners always had lock ins, but these don't seem to happen as often now. There is a large car park, and tables outside the front of the pub for the summer. it is a bit of a suntrap, so get a cider and relax!

It's got strange live music, a pool table, a beer garden, free newspapers, a small but decent selection of beers, seating on the street, bar billiards (sometimes) and... thousands of pigs. That's right - this dark but warm little pub is brimful of random pig toys, pig posters and pig sculptures. It adds a unique atmosphere to an already well-known atmospheric pub. Being only about 20 houses away, you can trust me that this is a true local gem. After 5 on most nights you'll find this place packed with drinkers who can't be bothered to go home just yet or catch the train home to the villages. Even if it's near-freezing out you'll still see us taking our beers out and sitting on the grass by the BBC next door so that the smokers can smoke away. And on a hot summer night - it's just perfect. No need to go home until I get thrown out.

I had their crispy pig face, mini arincini, 60-day aged sirloin (which they age themselves), triple fried chips, and rocket salad. Also their rosemary focaccia bread was phenomenal. It was like crack in bread form. I also had a great beer on cask as well as a glass of their Nero D'Avola from Sicily which went perfectly with my steak. Speaking of the steak, it was perfectly cooked medium rare and had a very crisp and flavorful exterior. My friends said their doughnuts are to die for here, but unfortunately we didn't leave enough room after the wonderful feast we had. Next time! The atmosphere is pub/cottagey with loads of character. I really look forward to returning here on future visits.
