Being Crowned as Love Hertford Award Winners

“We thank Ausra and the team for putting together the love Hertford awards and are delighted with our win, the best part for us is getting to read all the wonderful comments the voters made, we would like to thank all our customers for their support over the years and of course our amazing team for making it happen. The pub itself, all of our customers and staff are like a little family community and it’s fabulous for us all to be recognised this way”
