The Green Dragon in Hertsmere

My partner recommended this place and really bigged it up and said it was amazing. Myself and him went in on Sunday and had a roast with starters and a few drinks. The bill came to just under £100 for both of us.I have to be honest, if the bill wasn't almost £100 I probably wouldn't be as critical but for me the bill just didn't reflect the meal. Dont get me wrong everything was cooked nicely, however for me the vegetables were seasoned very well but the meat really lacked flavour, in my opinion the meat should be the stand out and it played second to the veg. Also for me the gravy was very thin and didn't really add anything other than moisture to the food. It was an OK roast but in honesty I have had a lot better for a lot less money. I really don't want this to come across as me bashing the place because the staff were fantastic and the atmosphere was great and it honestly wasn't a BAD roast. I just don't feel it warranted the price and wasnt massively far off a carvery quality which is much cheaper. Maybe its harder as so many places do amazing roasts now so you are always comparing it to other places but like I said the food was genuinely cooked nicely it was just a little underwhelming for the price in my opinion.

Alway great here. The staff. The food. The atmosphere. Thoroughly recommend. The waiter/ barman made sure I was safely in the correct cab.

This great pub/restaurant has almost become my second home !Great food, combined with wonderful staff headed by Mike and his right hand man Matt.I’ve been eating here for quite a few years now and I’ve never been disappointed. I’ve had old school reunions here with up to ten people, and everybody has always loved it.I’ll continue to be a regular for sure as it is my favourite restaurant, in fact I was there two days ago with my daughter and two of my grandchildren, and will be there again on Sunday for Mother’s Day. Nothing more to be said really !

We had an area booked for a birthday. The team were so accommodating arranging the space for us. We pre-ordered some sharing plates and drinks. This was all laid out beautifully for us and tasted delicious. I couldn’t have been happier with our evening. Thanks so much!

Absolutely disgusting attitude. Booked in advance, for 2 people, wanted to put us right next to a large group booking. When I asked if we could have another table, I was told they were fully booked and I could take it or leave it. Just because you do well as a buisness, doesn't mean you have to become arrogant and hostile towards customers. The people who came in before us had no booking and were able to choose whichever table they would like. Been coming here for years, never again.

A really cosy and lovely pub. They had a lovely Christmas party set menu. The food was delicious and high quality. A little pricey but worth it.

Absolutely 1st class. From the food to the staff! Had my sons 21st birthday meal there and my god, 14 dishes all cooked to perfection and not a single complaint!! We done guys, we’ll be back soon! Great wines too!

Lovely pub, attentive staff, great food, fab outdoors area!

After a morning swim in the lake, my boyfriend and I where dying for a hearty meal. I suggested the green dragon as never been and just googled it once or twice. Can I say that the food absolutely exceptional and I have recommended everyone in the area. It is definitely our new spot and we’ll be back soon.

A very nice pub. Good selection of drinks and food was absolutely superb. Lots of space inside and also lovely patio area outside if the weather is nice. Staff were very friendly and service was quick. Well worth a visit.
