[@karenwilliams2118]

Hi Stocky, the food looked good and it's nice to see a pub re-open.... Thanks for the review and always good to see Simon. Much love from NZ x

Nice meal stocky can't beat good pub food great to see you and si out and about bud 👍

[@Stockybloke]

@@steveweaver4365 cheers Steve, we both really enjoyed the food 👌😋😋

Good to see a pub re-opening as a pub rather than a block of flats.

[@Stockybloke]

@@JimmyGuitarist the rear of the property is flats, but you wouldn’t know from the inside.👍

[@JimmyGuitarist]

@@Stockybloke my favourite pub in Watford closed this year. I think it’s becoming a block of flats, bloody shame. It was always packed out on weekends but empty during the week, probably like most places now.

[@Stockybloke]

@@JimmyGuitarist so so many are closing such a shame 😳

[@johndenniswilson5899]

Nice use of the White Lion hair metal band logo! Love the editing on this film, with the different camera angles during the meal. Looks a very decent boozer 👍

[@Stockybloke]

@@jamesweber4938 it will probably be going for another 50 years James, food was really good 👍

[@kevinhoughton9134]

Greg mate the best fish is Haddock by a Country mile, although I've never had any decent fish & chips in a pub, so that's one meal I never order in a pub. Glad you and Simon enjoyed yours. 👍

[@Stockybloke]

@@kevinhoughton9134 hi Kevin I totally agree haddock is the best fish, I always choose it if it’s on the menu. There wasn’t much else on the menu I fancied to be honest. 👍

@@juliepownall1063 yeah I remember it now 👍

[@robbflynn4325]

Portion size looked a little small. Needed a few rounds of bread and butter also. Apart from that looked great!

[@Stockybloke]

I have to agree with the bread and butter 😋😋

[@Carloldham]

A decent review all I would say is that 50% of the meal is chips, if they make the effort with the Mushy peas, then how hard I'd it to cut a couple of spuds up and put them in a fryer for real fish and chips.

[@Stockybloke]

@@Carloldham you know how these pubs work Carl, it’s all about speed and the place was really busy.

[@lllucky13]

Basically a wetherspoons then

[@Stockybloke]

No far from it.

Ordering the same not a selection of the food surley you should have had different things to do a honest review

@@mikehuddy9274 if you had looked at the menu you’d have seen there wasn’t a lot too go for.

Very noisy in there Stocky, like an echo chamber. Can’t be doing with having to listen to other people parroting away.
