There is also a lovely play area for children. We ordered food and was told that the food would take an hour and a half (they weren't joking) on their menu it states 'we don't make fast food, we make good food' something like that, well boy was that far from the truth. We ordered: Onion rings, garlic bread, breaded mushrooms, potato skins, tuna sandwich, and a burger. Garlic bread was awful it was a baguette with loaded cheese, the tuna sandwich was also awful. All that food came to £40. This pub got 3 stars just because of the location and the outdoor seating and even that is generous. There are much better pubs that have a good garden.

The King and Tinker is a very old pub (the oldest in Enfield, apparently) situated in a rural…read morelocation by White Webbs Park. It is in the London Borough of Enfield, not far from the border with Hertfordshire, but you wouldn't think you were anywhere near London. We'd passed the pub a number of times before while out walking but yesterday decided to stop for a drink and something to eat. We had a hot salt beef sandwich (a pub speciality) and poached fish of the day. Both meals were good. I also had a pint of Hobgoblin ale (not great, but drinkable) and a second pint, of London Pride (very good). The staff were very polite, friendly and helpful. What I particularly liked about the King and Tinker was that it hadn't been modernised or made to seem fancy (the dreaded 'country pub & dining'). It was just how typical country pubs used to be, with photos and pictures of local interest on the wall, regulars sitting at the bar chatting with each other and the staff, and no piped music playing. It seemed like it was more or less the same as it would have been 30 or 40 years ago, except for the fact it offers a full food menu, which many pubs didn't in those days. We enjoyed our visit so much we made a note to come back again when out walking in the area.

If you're looking for a good pub, it doesn't get much better than this…read more Lovingly called simply "The Axe" by locals, this pub is in a different league to most other rural pubs. I'll explain why and try to be concise. The cuisine is exceptional. There's a good selection of quality drinks. The service is excellent. The atmosphere is always friendly and welcoming -- the sort of place where complete strangers tend to strike-up conversation. The location is perfect, overlooking the Village Green, with a big beer garden behind, and a vast playing field behind that. It's a lovely village, nestled in the gently-undulating farming landscape of rural north-east Herts -- no wonder Braughing was recently awarded the prestigious "Village of the Year" accolade. The pub's menu always includes the best of local produce, from locally-reared beef to local pork sausages, alongside popular country pub dishes. (Braughing village is famous for, among other things, the delicious local sausages, and this is a good place to sample them.) Did I mention the pies? A different pie every day it seems, and you won't find better pies than these. I don't make a statement like that lightly.

The skate is very tasty and the scampi and Jenga chips are good. The costs can be a little bit higher for lunch but the menu is very similar and therefore for dinner, I thought it was quite reasonable.

This pub is great in summer as there is lots of benches and outdoor seating area, just try to get one that is on the flat area and not on the hill, it's a different experience eating on a slant =P I didn't order much food, just a bowl of olives and some fruit cider. My friend ordered a prawn cocktail, she said it was very nice. The menu is pretty extensive and there are a variety of dishes for vegetarians, the only down side for me was that their selection of salads didn't really exist (that made me sad). Great atmosphere though and very pretty inside, if you are looking for somewhere to hang out this is the place to come.

Beer: We tried out the Guinness (great pouring process!), peroni, and a local ale which the bartender allowed me to sample. He was very helpful and walked me through the different ciders they had in stock and even how you could add fruit syrups to sweeten the flavor. What makes this place even more memorable was the helpfulness of the young guy bartending. He helped us plan how to get to Gatwick airport extremely early the next morning and we owe him a big one!

The Fox & Hounds was famous until 1998 as the last pub in London to have a 'beer only' licence;…read morethis throw-back to the 1830 Beer Act meant it could only sell beers and wines (no spirits). The same landlady had run it for 30 years and it had a quirky but very loyal, mainly local, customer base - and had won numerous awards over the years as London's best pub. The pub was acquired in 1998 by Youngs, who vowed to keep its character, but of course got a full liquor licence, and to start with made a bit of a hash of things - less friendly, dull menu, that sort of thing. Since then it has improved enormously, and whilst it is not what it was in the 1990's, is again a small, cosy local boozer with real ale and loads of character, which offers food at lunchtimes and evenings (though I've not eaten here for a while). The location ensures an extraordinarily varied mix of clientele, including wealthy Sloane types (Sloane Square is but a stone's throw away), old-fashioned Londoners and the devotees of stratospheric Anglo-Catholicism in nearby St Mary Bourne Street (see separate entry). Somehow the mix seems to work. There are lots of loyal regulars, so some find it a little cliquey - though I have to say this has never bothered me. Worth popping in, if you are in the area.
