Lovely family friendly pub. Kirsty one of the managers went above and beyond. Fabulous customer service along with all the other staff very friendly. Fantastic cocktails and food. Live singer had a great voice and sang some classics, unexpected bonus along with the play park for the children. Really enjoyed our Sunday afternoon there.

I have been to Harley’s lounge twice and I must say it is the best restaurant in Hertford. The menu has so much choice to suit all different types of people and the food is delicious. I would highly recommend

Our experience was really good. We went around 2:30pm and it was nice and quiet. I requested to be given a space where I could keep my pram and this was accommodated which was great. Snebin was a great server. He made sure we had everything we needed. He even helped me leave the restaurant carefully with my baby and pram.
