We went here for food. It took quite an age to get the starters out, then ages for the main…read more The food was good enough though, the ribs were tasty and cooked well. Both plates presented nicely. Definitely somewhere to come with friends of family for a nice meal and drinks with a nice view of the canal. The bar staff were friendly enough though and the decor is nice and relaxing. Toilet a bit of a mission. Good decent outside area with parking - just remember to enter your car details and you can get free parking there: Good selection of drinks.

A great spot right next to the grand union canel. Masses of seating outside for a sunny day and a…read morenice range of real ales. I only stopped here for a quick drink while waiting to be picked up from the Hemel train station and was deligted with this tucked away place.

Their chips are LUSH! Battered sausage yummy too and a decent bit of fish!…read more Would go here again as chips are good. Sausage was okay. Curry sauce tasty. Mushy peas yummy. Cod burger was a bit over priced but tasted fine. Seafood platter was overcooked

Stopped here recently while in Windsor enroute to the airport. Last day of our UK trip and had one…read morefinal goal--fish and chips. The ship was just opening for the day. What a delightful find! Sat at the outside table and had very fresh cod with splendid chips. Cooked to order (of course). Service was prompt and courteous. As we ate, other patrons came by. They seemed equally pleased. Highly recommended!

Back again & everything was flawless. Special of the day was steak. Perfectly prepared medium…read morecooked & accompanied by comfort food chips (onion rings were also ordered). A bottle of wine is included in the special. Teen enjoyed sausage and mash her standard order. The outdoor patio has been updated & the service was nice.

Now the Plough & Dragon. English pub and separate Thai restaurant…read more In the pub you can get a mixed menu. Tuesday special is Thai & Pint night. Wednesday is Burger & Pint night. The restaurant has a full menu and the food is superb for very reasonable prices. The staff were a bit slow, but it was early days. They are getting more popular. Well worth dining here. The food here is superb.

Came here with colleagues after a long day in the office. It was really busy, but the team was on…read moretop of it. Each table outside had a number. We gave that at the bar when we placed our order. They brought the meal to our table when ready. The zucchini linguine they had as a special was delicious. I also had a mini dessert of lemon posset and a cappuccino. It was a great way to end the work day. The weather was splendid and enhanced the lovely view of the canal. Highly recommend this pub.

*American Review* Really nice ambiance, employees were super nice and helpful, had a shandy and…read moreburger which were good, wish burger was spicy but that's a personal preference. Wife really liked the chicken pie. Kids liked their burgers which came with fries and a veggie. I'd say this is closer to a 5 than a 4

Probably the worst dining experience I've ever had, and I'm 62…read more There was no draft beer. My girlfriend's plate was dirty and was trying to refuse it when the surley young server just plonked a Yorkshire pudding in it, and said the bits were from that. The ham was almost gone and she was given just a lump of meat, the turkey was ok the beef was again a crag end but he managed to carve her a bit off. After carving at each station he just threw down the knife and fork in almost unruly manner. He was obviously annoyed at me and I was given half the amount, indeed he didn't even attempt to carve me any beef, but just scraped up some bits. The roast potatoes looked burnt so I didn't have any. The cauliflower was overcooked on the outside, and hard in the middle. There was only gravy after quite a long wait, and the saucepan and serving spoon were filthy, despite it being a new batch. During the meal a loud hoovering noise came from the kitchen. I'd of thought it was common sense to do it after customers had left, or at least close the door. I didn't feel I could complain as my girlfriend had taken me there as it was my last night in England for many months. I will never ever visit a Toby Carvery again.

Just about a 3! Booked our table, but ended up sitting down waiting for more meat to be cooked,…read morethen a ridiculous queue, and then there still wasn't any beef or lamb. The roasties were over cooked. There was one ladle if peas left. The stuffing was just stodgy. Desserts and drinks came quickly. Not sure I'll bother to come back to be honest.

This place is huge! but empty. Or atleast on a Thursday evening dinner time it was dead right up…read moreuntil I left about 11. The Pretender has had a face lift since it was Langley's some time ago, and now its a bar with a side restaurant. The bar area was ok, lot of coloured sofas and small tvs here an there. Had the carvary, but wish I didnt. Very small meat portion and the peas and parsnips were only half cooked. Potatoes seemed dry. At about 1030 the restaurant closes and we were asked to move to the bar area which was odd.

Enjoyed the carvers twice in a week and both times the turkey, pork & ham was very moist and…read moredelicious.( wish you had leg of lamb!) Good selection of vegetables and condiments. GIANT Yorkshire puddings were great and plenty of gravy. Had desert once which was the treacle pudding with unlimited custard. Overall very friendly service and great value! Will be back.....
