Best Historic Restaurants in Hemel Hempstead

Delicious food, lovely atmosphere and great service. Three of us in our party, we shared the Meze board to start which was just the perfect amount and tasted delicious. All three of us had the chicken schnitzel dish, it was so tasty - the chilli and caper linguine left a delicious taste. Too full for desert. The service was great, perfect time between each course and the staff were very attentive. Moderately priced, a hefty service charge - which of course was optional, but we paid.

I absolutely love the Crystal Palace, it’s a real little gem! Service is awesome, super friendly team, very happy to chat & engage. The food is ridiculous, I love every item on the menu but it’s the Camembert wheel that I adore!! Can’t wait to go back!! Thank you.

The warmest welcome in St Albans! The staff are so friendly and accommodating, the food is never less than excellent and the price is amazing. I love the linen napkins and weighty cutlery, the sumptuous Tudor touches in the dining room and the wide selection of soft drinks on offer. 3 of us ate today, for less than £100. Value, luxurious touches and homey attentions to detail, what’s not to love? We’ll be back soon.

Great selection of wines and champagne. We always have a great time and the service is excellent!

Really good pub food at the Elephant & Castle. Family had a wonderful time and the kids menu was really good value with good portion sizes for 10 year olds. Quiet on a Tuesday as expected, but that only meant the food came quicker which was nice, I was spoilt for choice with excellent pies, but went for the beef short rib which was excellent. Everyone was happy and would happily return.
