Bangkok Lounge
80 High Street, HarpendenAbsolute gem in Harpenden for family celebrations or special occasions. Came in with my family to celebrate my wife's birthday, and everything was spectacular. The Thai food is fresh, incredibly authentic, and full of aromatic flavors that had everyone's mouth watering. Very polite and attentive staff, and the owner personally came over to ensure we were having a great evening. Price is reasonable for the top standard, and the portions are a very generous size. Definitely one of my favourite places for dining out in town.

Brad & Dills
67 High Street, HarpendenThis Brad & Dills gets it right every time. I think it's because they're focused on just a few things (rather than the full menu across town) and there's a high customer turnover as there's very little seating inside so speed is of the essence. I love it. Reminds me of those old sandwich shops you used to get that would do just one thing but brilliantly. Nice coffee too.

Lussmanns Sustainable Kitchen & Garden
20a Leyton Road, HarpendenHad a great supper with friends last night. Able to enjoy the outdoor space, accompanied by the wonderful sweet scent of the jasmine hedge.
We all went from the beer and burger specials menu, and it was sufficiently delicious I didn't stop to get a photo! I can share the dessert though, a knickerbocker glory, perfect for a warm summer evening.

Cafe Aroma Mangal
135 Southdown Rd, HarpendenWonderful service and consistently delicious food made with clearly fresh ingredients. I order takeaway weekly, and it’s always freshly made and picked up warm. The ladies are incredibly friendly and so helpful, even when I place last-minute requests.
As a working mom, this place has helped me immensely, it’s been a lifesaver for family meals. My family absolutely loves the chicken curry, goulash, and kebab rice. Highly recommended.

Fox Harpenden
469 Luton Rd, Kinsbourne Green, HarpendenWe were given a voucher by a friend who couldn't use it so we already felt privileged. The lamb and pork & scallops were exquisite, accompanied by fresh vegetables and a superb wine for the price (sub £25). Our table had been given to another couple by accident but the head waiter found us another table within 2 minutes despite being fully booked so well done. The waitress Alena was great, even letting me sample the wine before choosing a bottle. It's a shame that she haughtily rolled her eyes when the payment was declined whilst paying the bill which left a bad feeling after an otherwise wonderful dining experience. Recommended.

Giggling Squid - Harpenden
Amenbury Ln, HarpendenThere was a wedding party upstairs which was unbearably noisy and inevitably resulted in very slow service despite the best efforts of the staff who as always were lovely. Suggest you either need more staff for a wedding breakfast or you need to suspend normal restaurant service when you have a wedding party in.

Redbourn Ln, Hatching Green, HarpendenThe White Horse is the perfect example of a high-quality British country pub. The setting in Hatching Green is beautiful, and the interior—with its low beams and wooden floors—creates a wonderfully cozy and welcoming atmosphere. The menu is impressive, focusing on high-quality British meats and seasonal ingredients. Everything we ordered was cooked to perfection and beautifully presented. The staff are attentive, friendly, and really make you feel at home.

The Cross Keys
39 High St, HarpendenWe had a fantastic meal at this lovely pub. Decided last minute to go out and rang to book a table 3 people plus a dog. The young lady who took the booking was very friendly and extremely helpful. When we arrived we were greeted by a lovely lady who knew immediately where we were sitting. We were shown to our table and looked after all night by a young lady who was attentive, friendly and helpful without being pushy. The food was amazing. I had the roasted vegetable tart which melted in the mouth. Absolutely gorgeous. Our dog is a nervous rescue having been thrown out at Christmas 2 years ago and all the staff brought her treats to help her feel at home. We will definitely be back even though we're an hour away as it was a wonderful evening. Thank you to everyone for making it a fantastic evening. Merry Christmas to you all
