The management of the Old Hatchet has changed recently resulting in a change (and lengthening) to the menu. The food was good - my wife's platter was excellent. Beer still of the same decent quality. My only gripe is that a 4th beer from Fuller's excellent range should be made available, particularly a lower-strength one. metrology_man - 8 Jun 2012 14:59 |
Time for a top-up review on the beer: The beers available in December 2011 are Fullers: Pride, ESB and HSB. The HSB is well kept, and has been so in several visits over the last year. Prices for the beers are slightly high compared to other nearby places, but acceptable. The pub has a car park, some modest outside seating, with plenty of space inside. It has old oak beams and tiled floors. Staff are good. Many come to eat (kids seem welcome too) but there is no problem in just drinking. It is free of piped music and TV and so is a goot pub to use for a chat. MxThomas - 29 Dec 2011 18:24 |
Having read reviews, some unfavourable some good, four of us decided to try it out for ourselves. We were welcomed by friendly staff, the pub although virtually empty when we arrived had a nice atmosphere. Many tables were already reserved with people arriving gradually throughout the evening. The service was great with the food arriving in no time at all. All four meals were excellently presented and the comments were that all four of us hadn't had such a great meal out for a while. The menu needs to be slightly more extensive - mixed grilles, lasagne and fillet steak would be great additions. Would we recommend it : definitely Cazlin - 21 Aug 2011 09:41 |
Three of us visited for drinks and a meal Sept 2010. Friendly and attentive staff and very well kept Fullers beers. My pint of London Pride and Seafarers were very good. There is a good selection of wine for those who like it. My calamari starter was good. However my Toad-in-the-Hole was very poor. The staff know it was bad, so there was no fuss when I did not pay for it. The pasta and pork ordered by my two friends were alright. We used to live in the area and visited many times for food and beer and the food always really excellent. However the food now seems rather variable in quality. I think this pub has changed hands in the last year or so. I give the Hatchet 8/10 for beer (only free houses pubs with a lot of guest beers will get higher from me!) and 3/10 for food. eriksmate - 7 Oct 2010 13:05 |
Recently visited this pub on a Friday evening for a beer and meal. The Fullers real ales cannot be faulted, kept in great condition and a few to choose from. The staff were freindly. BUT, the food is something that really need attention, the 'Prawn & Crayfish' starter had no crayfish, and the 'Rib Eye Steak' was awful. The steak was the smallest I've ever been served, and the accompanying onion rings were the most greasy I've been dished up. Not a pub to be recommended for food in this very up-market area, especially as there are 3 other excellent pubs serving food within a mile of this one (the others also serve some good real ales too) imnodope - 9 Jul 2010 06:04 |
