It fancies itself as a gastro-pub but like a couple of others that experienced on this trip we were somewhat disappointed with the food, the menu etc somewhat pretentious, they try too hard and end up with no stellar result to validate the term gastropub in my opinion. That said - I will be back for drinks on my next visit to the UK

The Fox is an up market restaurant/pub set in the beautiful village of Willian, near Hitchin. Their…read morefood is absolutely amazing, and the service is great to. This is my favourite place to eat! It's quite pricey, but very worth it for a special occasion. They specialise in fish dishes, but their non-fish dishes are fab too. The only down side to their menu is the fact that they tend to only have one vegetarian option, so I don't think it's the best place to eat at for vegetarians.

Growing up this was my "local". I ate there a few years ago and it was pretty decent pub food…read more Against my better judgment when my cousin suggested eating here with the family (because it is close) I agreed and so 5 of us arrived for dinner. First thing you note is that ALL the character of the place has been removed by replacing original pub sign etc has been replaced with generic, plain white lettering on a maroon backdrop plastic looking signs. Second they seem to have changed it from a pub (translation for my US buddies - bar) to a very ordinary restaurant. The food was DREADFUL. Normally I would have rammed it down the waitresses throat but with family around I swallowed it (my anger not the food). I ordered bangers and mash - Surely no-one can make a dry nasty English banger?! Oh these guys can - and the nasty luke warm gravy crap? And the sausages were basically burnt so much that I thought my teeth would crack when I TRIED to eat one. My uncle barely touched his chicken dish it was so bad - my Dad (the human vacuum) ate his fish and chips but it didn't look good. The girls meals were totally not memorable in any good way. Never again.

The landlady Jane is fantastic and makes you feel very welcome. Children are very welcome in here and my little boy loves it. They don't do a childrens menu but the portions are so big that normally my son would just share with me. They also have a big disabled bathroom with babychanging. I think from all eaty places in Letchworth this is the one you should visit as it is a truely lovely place. Just make sure to book if you need a babyseat.

Very very nice. I was surprised to see a pub serving food so busy during the week…read more Clearly the refurbishment they did a while ago had a positive effect. Personally this was my first time here and I went with some friends if mine. The food was very good and served in a reasonable time, all dishes in one go meaning that attention has been paid from the chef. I had a lamb burger with potato wedges and coleslaw in a mango sauce. The meat was medium cooked as requested and the coleslaw very nice. My wife had a steak and ale pie. The stew was very tender and the sauce not bitter at all (Which us something that it happens very often). Can't comment on my friend dishes as they went for an ordinary sausages and scampi both with fries. However portions were generous enough. The pub is an old grade listed place and our was very nice to stay in. Chimney were off, but I'm sure that they can add a nice touch and make the environment very pleasant. Price wise, it's on the average. I'll will definitely go back again.

Firstly, I have had to create a new, anonymous account to write this review as the patrons and…read moremanager of this establishment threatened me. This is a homophobic pub with a some nasty regulars and a hostile manager (Darryl). Until tonight, I loved Molly Malones. It was my favourite pub in Hitchin. I attended a few times a month watch live sport. I met some lovely people, especially around the pool table. I went tonight to watch the PSG vs Chelsea game, and ended up playing poker with a couple of lovely guys, and the manager, Darryl, who turned out to be not so lovely. After the football, whislt I was at the bar, another patron shouted out 'Chelsea Nonce'. This is an offensive homophobic slur when connected to football, as evidenced by the conviction of Joey Barton who repeatedly used it on social media. I politely but firmly told the guy that was not okay. He got aggresive and told me to 'F' off. He then said it again. I reitereated that his language wasn't okay, and said I'd call the police if he said it again. He said it again. I dialled 999. At this point the manager (Darryl) asked me to leave the pub and took my drink away (I had just bought him a pint). He said he was removing me from the premises 'for my own safety'. The police attended. The said that 'nonce' was not a slur. I advised them to educate themselves, They were rude and dismissive. Darryl appeared at the door, grinning, and invited the officers into the pub. They left within 2 minutes, and reported on their radio that no offence had been comiited. I got their badge numbers and names and have made a complaint to Hertfordshire police. The police officers advised me that if I was now unwelcome in the pub, if I didn't move on and a complaint by the manager was made, I would be moved on by them forcefully. This is NOT an LGBTQ friendly pub. It's NOT a friendly pub at all under it's current management. Have a look at the other poor reviews for this pub and how the manager responds. J

Molly Malones is my local pub and I love it. It's a proper pub in my opinion and, as the name…read moresuggests, run on a bit of an Irish theme. It's situated on Nightingale road a little out of the centre of town but is well worth seeking out. The staff are very friendly, the beer is good and the whole atmosphere of the place is great. They show the footie when it's on and have live bands from time to time plus events such as party night on Halloween and New Year etc. It's not a particularly big place so it can get a little crowded at peak times. There's a little courtyard out the back for smokers but you couldn't really call it a beer garden. Parking can be problematic around here but there are soem free parking slots across the road next door to the petrol station. Go on - give Molly's a go - you'll come back again

I almost walked right out of this hotel when I discovered that they had no parking and they are…read moreplum center in downtown of this quaint little town. However I did end up staying my full two days - the very very nice manager (Asian lady) gave me tips of where to find parking and juggle times and options. It ain't easy folks - if you are not a local (like I basically am - was born in the next town) then finding your way around the problem and not getting parking tickets will be a challenge. The second disappointment was that breakfast on Saturday starts at 8am and I had to leave early for Heathrow. On Friday I enjoyed the (full cooked, excellent) English breakfast (included in the room charge) and so felt a bit ripped off the second night. The rooms (by UK standards) are very good, everything new and clean - while retaining much of the charm of this quaint place. Apart from parking the location is great. Only had breakfast but what I saw of the open kitchen and satisfied diners in the evenings I think it likely an excellent option for dinner. Without the parking issue easily 4 stars

Baldock has changed quite a bit since I was a resident! One of the changes I'm liking is the new…read morecoffee shops, butchers and gastro pubs popping up. Particularly The George, which has gone through quite a few changes in management and look and I do have to say this is the best it has looked. To start; the food. It contains a few classics, not standard bang-it-in-the-oven classics, but good pub grub/comfort food classics. As you can tell from the tip, I went for the Goliath burger, and Goliath it indeed was. It also came with chunky home cut chips and massive beer battered onion rings. Which, in layman's terms = NOM! One thing I will say and this is just nitpicky, is the on tap selection. They had your standard 'good' beers and largers like peroni, but would have been perfect for a venue like this to stock some more local beers and ales. Especially since you have quite a few in herts and London... Anyway, the bar is a decent size, but most of the venue is pretty much restaurant space, the staff were chatty and friendly... And yes. This is good place to stop by if you are on your way to or from London and or Cambridge.

Letchworth was founded by Ebenezer Howard in 1906, and being a Quaker he forbade alcohol and pubs etc within the city limits. That is not common for Brits - who love their beers and gin and tonics!! So the growth of pubs and licensed premises in the last decade or two has been "refreshing"!! Both Mrs G and I loved this place! On day 1 Mrs G went for a burger which she liked very much indeed, while I opted for the full English breakfast which was excellent! We both had juices (no booze!!) while on day 2 we both took the buttermilk pancakes with bacon and maple syrup. Rare in England and delicious. Service was outstanding, warm and friendly. The whole ambience was wonderful - families, friends, mums and babies groups. Bright, airy, spacious and in the warm weather a beautiful indoor/outdoor experience. Yes of course we will be back next time that we are in Letchworth again!!
