He took our drinks order and served us. I asked to set up a tab and he was fine. He pointed out the special board and welcomed us to take our seats. I had a burger and chips, it was nice enough. My colleague had fish and chips and he said his fish was actually really nice and definitely a good bit of quality fish. The waitress was so sweet, attentive and amusing! The decor was lovely and you can tell it's just had a big makeover. The whole place was immaculate. A really decent selection of drinks, including London lagers and ales. It is is at the posher end of "gastro pub". I would go back here 100%. If nothing else the staff have won it over for me hands down. You k ow you'll get served timely, decent food, with a smile, nothing too much effort.

They're dog friendly and there's a really nice nature walk right opposite the pub. You'd want to get there by car as it's in the middle of Watford road but to easy to find. The staff there are welcoming, we actually went on Boxing Day thinking it' probably be too busy but they were really nice and we got a cozy sofa spot next to the bar. The food is nice and warming I had the butternut squash soup of the day with nice homemade bread. They do amazing seafood hence the name and I'm eager to go for the lobster Tuesdays. I think you have to book in advance due to popularity. Will definitely recommend any hungry hikers and families with kids as they have a lot to choose from with whole lot of alcohol choices too!

I came here twice for dinner with coworkers while working in the area, as the restaurant was a…read moreshort walk from the hotel we were staying at. The food was pretty good, and the portions were generous. Nothing too fancy, but the prices were reasonable relative to the quality and location. The first time I came, I split a mushroom and sausage pizza with a coworker and also got the soup of the day, stracciatella. The pizza was large (I definitely wouldn't have been able to finish it on my own) and the soup was tasty. The pizza did get a bit soggy partway through, but it was still pretty good. The restaurant had a wide variety of desserts; I picked the lemon sorbet, which was a sufficient size since I was already full from the pizza, and was very enjoyable. My second night here, I got a ravioli dish with beef bolognese sauce; again, it was tasty and the portion was generous. I was just barely able to finish it. There was a good amount of outdoor seating; since I was here during a heatwave we never dined inside so I didn't get a look at the interior. All the staff we encountered were friendly. Overall, a decent and reliable place to get Italian food in Watford.

The menu has a great variety, we can always find something that we like. I always start with the minestrone soup and then move onto one of many fantastic pasta dishes. The spaghetti Bolognese is hard to beat. The staff is well-trained and responsive. Most speak Italian, so prepare with a few phrases if you'd like. They tend to be very busy, so plan accordingly and call ahead if you're going to be there during the holidays or any busy tourist season. After dinner head out to a play for the perfect evening.

They did have salads on the menu, but I didn't feel confident that they would be fresh or flavorful as there wasn't much in the way of other fresh produce on the menu. The omelette is absolutely massive, for between 4.45-5.50£, of which my partner said the highlight was the chips. I myself had the cream of tomato soup for £3.50, which was served with a roll. Unfortunately for me, I didn't realize there was a danger of the roll coming pre-margarined, or else I would have requested it on the side. As it was, I didn't end up trying the roll. The soup, I am fairly confident, was prepared directly from a Campbell's soup can, albeit masterfully and without lumps the way I never could achieve at home, which perhaps is exactly what other people might have expected to receive when they ordered it. But, alas, I wasn't prepared to pay that kind of price for having perfected the art of re-hydrating condensed soup. Anyway, I would say the portions are reasonably large, and the service not neglectful but neither attentive, and the prices just a bit more than I would prefer to pay at a greasy spoon type eatery. It was, however, very clean and nice. Two stars. But why would you go here when the rest of Pinner is at your disposal?
