Dining experience in Rickmansworth

“Everyone knows that this is the best chip shop in the area! Owners are lovely and the food is delicious and a very good price. The only bad point is that it is cash only. But I guess that helps to keep the price down. 10/10”

“Really lovely place with so much character. An amazing Sunday roast dinner was had. The meat was succulent, tender and full of flavour. The veg was cooked to perfection. Super tasty Yorkshire puds and gravy. We shared a super serving of cauliflower cheese and pigs in blankets. Sat next to a roaring fire. Bliss. Highly recommend this place 100%.”

“We popped in as a friend is staying locally. The pub isn’t much to look at from the outside but the food and service was excellent. The staff went out of their way to make us feel welcome and accommodate our needs. Attentive and fast service. Really friendly. The food was excellent. We had the special mixed grill and it was brilliant. Beautifully seasoned and cooked. Highly recommend!”

“This is a favourite local or ours and even though they were super busy today, the service is always 5* and nothing is too much for them. Service with a smile - always. This place also does the best coffees. Thank you again”

“I recently visited this restaurant with my kids, and we had a wonderful experience! There were about 23 of us in our group, and despite the size, the service was impeccable. The staff were attentive, friendly, and made sure everything went smoothly. The food was fantastic—delicious, well-prepared, and served in generous portions. There was a great variety on the menu, catering to all tastes, and everyone in our group found something they loved. The atmosphere was also a highlight. The large outdoor kids' play area kept the little ones entertained, which made our dining experience much more relaxed. Plus, the Christmas market at the front added a festive touch, creating a charming vibe. All in all, it was a fantastic visit—highly recommend for families or anyone looking for a great meal in a welcoming environment!”

“A great pub in lovely country surroundings. They had indoor and outdoor seating. They came to our table to take our order, but also had an app. The staff are really friendly, it’s clean and roomy. For hiking, it was wonderful to have this pub on route. I would definitely recommend coming here.”

“Fantastic restaurant! From the moment we walked in, the staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming, which made us feel right at home. The service was attentive without being overbearing, and it really added to the overall experience. The food was absolutely amazing – full of flavor, fresh, and beautifully prepared. A standout dish for me was the Pad Khing; the balance of ginger, spices, and freshness made it unforgettable. Every bite was delicious, and you can tell a lot of care goes into the cooking. I would happily recommend this place to anyone and will definitely be returning soon.”

“Been coming here semi-regularly for years now, not had a single issue. I'm rather fussy so not finding any major problems is remarkable. Not the largest selection of food but everything available is 10/10 (especially the wings oh my god how are they this good).”

“This place is a hidden gem! A small local and friendly pub with bug beer garden, but a hidden thai restaurant upstairs! The food was delicious and genuine thai, had a chance to meet the chef and she was a pleasure to talk to. We had to take takeaway after we finished dinner, which almost never happens to me. The staff was very friendly, we were served quickly and in general it was a lovely evening. Next time I am in the area, will have to stop for a meal!”

“Was recommended to come here for dinner, and I’m so glad I did. From start to finish, was such an experience. Met with a professional team, that care about their work, clearly trained to a high standard. Food allergies and care were taken very seriously, on top of there being many options should you have allergies. Amazing food to top it off. Highly recommend to you all. We traveled 45minutes and will definitely make that travel again.”

“We held a wake at the pub before it opened at 3.00pm. It was an excellent venue with first class food and service. Arun made sure our requirements were met for the day in question and nothing was too much trouble. Once the pub opened we had a large quiet area reserved for us to one side of the pub for those that needed to stay longer. Well recommended for any private gathering or event.”

“I've been living in Watford for 12 years and this is the first time I've tried this place. All I can say is, it's outstanding, not just for this area but it's one of the best Fish & Chips I've ever had. The batter was perfect (so many places get this wrong), as was the fish and the portions are HUGE. My son had one of the equally massive sausages wrapped in bacon, again, very good indeed. Service was nice and friendly and we didn't wait long for a freshly cooked takeaway. I wish I had found this 'plaice' a long time ago. (Banana in the photo for scale)”

“Absolutely loved the experience my friend and I had! We have the High Chai Afternoon tea and the food was exquisite. The flavours were electric and vibrant with each bite. The ambience and service was 10/10. Would definitely go again and highly recommend!”

“Lovely little cafe. Lovely staff, good food, good portions and reasonably priced. There is plenty to choose from.”

“Monday lunch for our small walking group. A lovely welcome from managers Alice and Zoe, and a nice comfortable atmosphere with open fire. The Cock Inn is now under new management and working hard to revive this lovely old pub. Monday/Tuesday lunch menu is not extensive, but excellent quality and “just right” in portion size. Great work all! Keep it up!”

“Had a lovely lunch catch up with friend. Food was good. Not busy. We stayed on chatting undisturbed.”

“We have a take away regularly from here and we have always enjoyed the food. Best we have used in this area. Definitely recommend.”

“First visit to Fox and Hounds, Croxley for Sunday lunch and we were well impressed with quality and value for money..under €10 a head for a full Sunday roast!! Sue, the landlady was attentive and friendly , drinks were also cheap and we will definitely go again.”

“First time visit. Very cosy pub. We ordered two starters each for four people, along with mini dessert, including hot drinks. Food very tasty. Staff were polite and accommodating towards our needs and had a chuckle at our order. It's quite different for me but enjoyable. There are plenty of car parking spaces. Would definitely go again and recommend a visit.”

“From the atmosphere, to the service and staff everything was nothing short of amazing. All the food was absolutelly amazing but the Korean fried chicken burger was the star of the show. The burger was an explosion of flavors and textures. The crispy chicken was coated in a sweet and spicy sauce topped with crunchy slaw and creamy mayo, it was one of the best burgers I had in years. Compliments to everyone. I will definitely be back.”

“I travel from Luton for the best Indian food around. Great genuinely Indian food with a nice garden and weather permitting. The owner Sanjay is a bonus providing service with a smile and a recommends amazing dishes. The one Churi with ice cream is a great way to finish off. Best selection of Malt whiskys too.”

“We love this place. A group of us come here for a Christmas do each year and for odd visits throughout the year and the food and service are never less than excellent. Everyone’s really friendly and the beer’s great too! Thank you.”

“A lovely friendly pub. Very popular with the locals of Croxley Green but you’re made to feel very welcome on arrival. Seating outside front garden & also out the back garden which is nice, but over looks the car park. The car park can get full at peak times but not normally a problem to find somewhere local to park. Dogs are allowed both inside & outside and on the few occasions we have visited there has always been many dogs here. The vibe seems really chill & relaxed. Food is good, I always go for the superfood salad as it’s simply the most amazing thing which sounds strange for a salad but it’s amazing!”

“Exactly what a fish and chip shop should be. Can't wait for my next visit”

“We had a large family gathering planned, and the staff here couldn't have been more helpful, from helping us decide what menu items to have, arranging a set price per head, attentive service and plenty of delicious food. We had a lovely afternoon, thank you so much to the staff. Highly recommend.”

“Great food great staff always a vibe happy made fresh daily”

“Life changing experience. The best food I have ever put in my body. In the history of ever. Really great service beginning to end, you are so taken care of. And the food sizes are pretty big actually; but don’t worry you can take it home with you too. The best nan I’ve ever eaten, not greasy at all. And the masala was incredible. Meaty and thick sauce.”

“Fresh, hot & succulent. Really good singapore noodles. Nice crunchy veg, not soggy. Packed with flavour and definitely FRESH. Keep it up guys, will be returning”

“The best quality meet you can find in the area at great price!!! I've been customer of Meze Mangal for a few years now and the quality of food is great. The kebaps are great and always fresh food served here. The owner is soo generous that he spoils us with sweets on special days. I would highly recommend to anyone who like to eat good food.”

“Great meal at curry garden. Fantastic service from Rey and really enjoyed the cheesy naan. Lovely decor and table presentation”
