Best Restaurants for Afternoon Tea in Harpenden

Lovely food and excellent service once a new member of staff had taken over from the previous waitress who seemed to have disappeared. There was a little confusion about what sides if any would be included with our main courses. The food was beautifully presented and delicious. Our new waitress was friendly and helpful with a smile at all times. We liked our table for 4 in the corner of the conservatory. A good restaurant to come to for a special meal!

We can rely on the Centurion for good fiod, charming service and a warm atmosphere.

Goddard food but waited far too long for starters (over an hour).

Dinner on Christmas Eve. As the restaurant wasn't full, the ambience was gentle. Both the food (starters, mains and desserts) and service were very good throughout the evening. Nothing felt rushed, with staff available to replenish drinks and other requests. I've dined here before with friends and decided this would be a good option for a Christmas birthday evening. As this was the first visit for my son and husband they confirmed I made a good choice. We will definitely return.

This was a great venue to meet up with family - at a convenient mid point between us all. The building is fabulous and the interior is lovely. The food was really good and well presented. The staff were all really friendly and helpful.
