The Woodman Pinner

Pub

👍👍 The team here go above and beyond to make sure your meal and experience is perfect. We came in today with our autistic daughter and family and although there wasn’t anything on the menu that suited our daughter (she’s very very fussy) the owner was more than happy for us to bring our own food in fo...

Two Trees Micro

Pub

👍👍 Absolutely wonderful little place serving and supporting local breweries with craft and real ale in a friendly and welcoming environment where you are bound to end up talking to someone. New ales most weeks. A proper welcoming local, and not at all clicky.

The Swan

Pub

👍👍 There's nothing to fault in this pub - it boasts all the virtues of what a good traditional local should be. It’s a tiny terraced gem with varied, well-kept beer (Young’s, Timothy Taylor’s Landlord and Black Sheep, which all taste great with a meat pie for less than two quid!), lovely fires in winte...

The Three Wishes

Pub

👍👍 Only been there twice. The first time was for Enda Mulloy's first solo single release, the second time, Enda kidnapped me... (it is his local). I have been there when it was both rammed and when it was less busy. On the extremely busy visit, I was appreciative of the fact that the bar staff made a...

White Lion

Pub

👍👍 Best Sunday roast in Watford. We came around 4 pm few times and the service and the owner is always very nice. Best book in advance for Sunday Roast as it sells out very quickly. This pub won Watford Observer Award 2023.

The Three Wishes

Pub

😠 My friends and I (all aged 20/21) planned to go to this pub as part of our Christmas pub crawl, but as soon as we walked in and a couple of us went to the toilet (the others all went to sit down at a table) we were shouted at by staff and made to feel unwelcome and uncomfortable. Five of our group -...

Hudson Place

Wine bar

👍👍 Not only a beautiful building full of charm but Lisa and team provide a lovely personal service. Tried out the Barbie brunch with beautiful cocktails and grazing boards. All delish, great value especially for decent cocktails rather than the other versions that are quite radioactive 👀 Highly recomm...
