Hmmm, Didn't realise that it was the bar staffs job to interrogate customers ordering drinks if they were walking or driving?

Large McMullen's pub with full menu and large outside seating area. 30 seconds from Welwyn North which was even better as they had a special offer on Mc Mullen's Cask at �2 a pint.

This pub's amazing... they get one review a year!
Ain't nobody been in there this year?
Must be grim.

Friendly local. Wasps are a problem in summer due to the abundance of flowers near the outdoor eating area.

New Landlord and Landlady seem to be nice enough - however all the original staff have gone ??

I went for lunch there today with a friend and I have to say that I was very disappointed. The location, atmosphere and beer garden are very nice but unfortunately the food and waiting staff were below par.

I ordered a Hereford Beef Burger (�7) and my friend ordered a Chicken and Bacon Flatbread (�5). The Chicken and Bacon Flatbread wasn't bad but was smothered in a huge dollop of mayo. The Beef Burger when it arrived had about 5 chunky chips with it and the burger was pink and sloppy in the middle so I went to a waitress and told her. She responded with 'Oh, OK' and walked straight off into the kitchen. I was brought another burger (but with same bacon and cheese on it) and again, this wasn't cooked properly. I put my plate on the bar and said I wanted my money back, which was done apologetically by the chap behind the bar. What is the point in employing a chef who can't even cook a burger?

In summary -

Poor waitress customer service, poor food quality and wasp problems if you sit in the beer garden.

Good location and air-con inside, nice bar staff and good beer selection.

Fantastic Pub. Great for a nice quiet drink with your friends. A lot of locals as well as many young people. They have some rather fit ladies at the bar too!
