The Candlestick Pub - Hatfield
The Candlestick Pub
Description
The Candlestick pub offers a beautiful and picturesque location with a lovely garden and countryside views. However, recent reviews have highlighted disappointment with the food quality and prices, particularly for the Sunday roast. Some diners found the pork belly tough and badly presented, while others felt the veg was undercooked and the food was reheated. The pub also seemed to lack options for vegetarians. Despite these food-related drawbacks, the pub has new management that is committed to improving and maintaining set opening hours. Additionally, the staff has been commended for their friendliness and service, with one reviewer even praising the pub for hosting a flawless wedding reception. The pub is also dog-friendly and has a large play area in the garden. The candlestick may need to focus on enhancing its food quality and variety to match the charm of its setting and the warmth of its service.

Things haven't got any better here. thought we would try it again, given it is local and changed hands (again). things havent improved i'm afraid and drinks more expensive than other pubs locally. dont go out of your way to try it.
A friend and I were looking for a late Sunday lunch, and we found this place on Google, only a fifteen-minute drive away. Despite it being after 3pm, the pub was still busy with diners and dog-walkers, and the atmosphere was very traditional and welcoming. We inquired about lunch options and were given the Sunday menu, which was pretty standard with no veggie options advertised. However, when we asked, the barman suggested a bean burger from the standard menu or a filo pastry, spinach, and ricotta slice made specially by the chef. My friend opted for the latter and was delighted with the addition of veggie gravy. Although we had to wait a bit longer for the food, it was well worth it when it arrived. The portions were generous, the food delicious, and we were offered extra gravy and sauces as well. The service, atmosphere, food, and drinks were all excellent, and we will definitely be coming back again!
The food at this restaurant is incredible, especially the chicken burger. The staff is friendly and provides quick service. There is a charming assortment of animals for children to enjoy while we finished our meal. I highly recommend this restaurant.
The restaurant has a fantastic location and the staff are exceptional. The food is delicious and offers great value for the price. I am thrilled to see the improvements that have been made and will definitely be returning with friends this week.
So pleased to see The Candlestick has reopened fab generous roast lunch with lovely roast potatoes and good selection of veg, very reasonably priced too. Delicious puds, friendly staff with very well kept gardens and lots of flowers; cosy and clean interior and welcomes dogs; cannot fault it. We will be back and I wish the new owners good luck with the pub
