"Came here with my partner and it's such a lovely traditional pup which is rare to see in today's times staff were friendly and service was incredible pup is run by a small team of dedicated staff that clearly take pride in there work chatting with customers food is incredible genuine home cooked food I had the lasagna which was one of the best I've had in years will dine here again so if your in the area or like me out on short break it's definitely worth the trip A little small but cozy and friendly and they are dog friendly even giving the option to add a sausage to your main meal just for the dog. So to sum up Great food Great staff Lovely little dog friendly pub"

The restaurant was relatively quiet for a midweek lunch, which isn’t surprising. They have an excellent selection of beers, and the food was quite impressive—fresh, flavorful, and reasonably priced. It's definitely worth seeking out, as it’s located off the main roads. This place is a must-visit, and I will definitely be returning. Highly recommended! Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 4

We had a wonderful experience at this charming pub with its fantastic staff. We arrived with our campervan just as they were closing, due to delays at Luton airport, and they were incredibly accommodating, allowing us to stay overnight in their parking lot. We also ordered dinner to take away, along with a beer! The breakfast in the morning was excellent and a perfect way to cap off our stay. We will definitely be coming back!

This charming 17th-century traditional pub offers a selection of Fuller's ales. The beautifully preserved building is adorned with wisteria in full bloom during Easter. There are no TVs, gaming machines, or other modern distractions; instead, you'll find dark wood paneling and furniture, along with a well-kept beer garden. The ales are well-maintained, and I've heard the food is quite good, though a bit on the pricey side. The opening hours adhere to traditional standards, so be sure to check them before planning to enjoy a leisurely afternoon here.

"I visited Lussmann in April when they were revamping their menu and enhancing it with new flavors. Lussmanns Harpenden, located in an 18th-century former coach house with a view of Leyton Green, exudes a charming countryside atmosphere. Guests can enjoy outdoor dining in the enclosed garden and have private meals in a lovely first-floor room. We began with Passion Fruit Martini and Chapel Down Gin. Our appetizers included Red Lentil Soup and Thyme Roasted Beetroot, which were not only beautifully presented but also wonderfully tasty. For the main course, we savored Halibut, Corsican Slow-Braised Label Anglais Free-Range Chicken, and Sirloin Steak with fries. We also ordered Seasonal Market Vegetables and fries as sides. I must say every dish was meticulously prepared, expertly combined, and served at the perfect temperature. The steak, in particular, was excellently cooked to a medium rare, just as I had requested. To conclude our outstanding meal, we indulged in Pineapple Carpaccio and Sweet Bitter Orange Brûlée, accompanied by a delightful cup of espresso. Our waitress, Jaida, was exceptionally cheerful and attentive, and the manager, Michael, was highly professional, ensuring everything ran smoothly. At the end of our fantastic dining experience, I had the privilege of personally thanking Chef Sergio, an affable young talent with a promising future. I want to extend my congratulations to Andrei for assembling such an incredible team. I wholeheartedly recommend everyone to pay a visit to Lussmann in Harpenden for an exceptional dinner or lunch. I'm already looking forward to my next visit. Best regards, Nick Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5"
