Had an enjoyable lunch outside following the current guidance. Worked well. Glad to see they are working hard to keep business going. Our feet got cold so take a blanket for the lower body where the heaters do not reach.

Small nice pub with great food. Portions are fair, prices are on the high end but still affordable. Based on the time you might stumble upon a local drunk that could ruin the atmosphere.
Great atmosphere sitting in a little pod outside. Heater on but take a blanket for your legs. Starter of halloumi was lovely but the lasagne was overcooked and rubbery and the sticky toffee pudding so dry. Very reasonably priced though, maybe I just picked the wrong thing on the menu.
I really liked it here! I'm new to the place my daughter booked it for my birthday & FA Cup final and I really enjoyed my time here. The staff are super nice and accommodating I will definitely be back soon! I Live miles away and it's definitely worth the trip. Thanks The Engineer you've won a new patron thank you for your service
A stylish little place hidden away, a small car park, but plenty of places in roads nearby. Unfortunately, it's child-friendly. Consequently there's a little gate in the garden with a sign on it saying something along the lines of: 'Children, do not play with this gate. It is not a toy.' This strikes me as a tiny bit unimaginative, especially as the table by the pond has a name, instead of a number: 'The table by the pond'. Quirky. Anyway, that gate sign was bothering me. How about a rewrite? Let's come up with something better between us. Something along the lines of: 'Children, if you so much as even LOOK at this gate, two puppies will die immediately. Maybe three. Want that on your conscience do you? STEP BACK FROM THE GATE.' Way off there. Too long as well. How about: 'This is Harpenden's global warming gate. Play with it if you want. However, if you do, an extremely angry polar bear will turf up at your house tomorrow and eat your Xbox.' No. That's not right. Just as long too. Let's try again: 'Spider Gate. Do not touch or the spiders will escape and get you. When you're asleep.' No that's rubbish. Here: 'Hello child. I am gate. Help yourself. Play away. Knock yourself out. But what will I want in return? YOUR PARENT'S SOULS.' A bit too hard-core. Maybe. How about... 'I am a poor old gate. Please don't play with me. It hurts. It causes me pain. Do you know what pain is? DO YOU WANT TO KNOW? You will KNOW pain. STEP AWAY NOW. You CANNOT take the pain.' Bloody heck. No. We don't want to destroy these children. One last go... 'Hey! Children! Leave this gate alone. All in all, it's just another gate in the wall....' Hopeless. I hate that stupid song as well. This is just a thought any way. Have you got any ideas?
