The Grandison

I like it here. Had several nice meals here and really friendly service as well as a decent atmosphere. A good place for celebrations as well as more informal occasions. Has a nice garden too for when the sun’s out

Come here regularly week days for lunch with clients and on the social occasion with friends. I like the professionalism you get at the Grandison, it’s not corporate but the way its run isn’t dissimilar to some of the big London operations i frequent. Great wine list & food, Ria is a star as are all the staff. Would recommend for business or pleasure. (try the pie!!)

I’ve had nothing but great service and food each time i have frequented the Grandison. My girlfriends and i meet for lunch twice a week and at least one of those times we eat at the Grandison, it’s clean, the staff are always friendly and attentive and the food is fresh and not that microwave rubbish. it’s not every ones taste but then again not every one has good taste!
Carry on the good work:)

Have just come back from The Grandison and can honestly say we will not be going again.
We were over charged for our order, a burger and pirri chicken sandwich, a pint and an appletize £25.85. When the food did eventually come and it took at least 30 minutes, the pirri chicken sandwich did not contain any pirri spice and the chicken was cold. I returned the sandwich to be questioned by the manager (pink shirt) ‘well it isn’t raw is it madame’ customer service at its finest.
The ‘chips’ are also rubbish, deep fried chips sticks all served on a chopping board? The bread for the sandwiches was also pretty cheap.
There was no courtesy check either to see that our food was ok.
It wasn’t particularly busy and we can see why. We would not recommend it, when there are so many other nice and keenly priced pubs in this part of herts.

Great place, friendly staff, best at meat dishes, nicely set out and great food. a bit pricey, but well worth it.

I’m not really a country bumpkin at heart, but my father certainly is so I’m delighted to blog about a pub my parents stumbled into on a recent family ramble.
«After feeling rather peckish after a six mile circular walk, we found this delightful place. The building had been there for 200 years but after being closed for six years had just been re-​opened. The menu was varied. My wife and I chose whitebait followed by crab risotto and coffee. Our friends had fish and chips, topped with a local beer from Tring. The staff, who were mostly South African, were most welcoming and the setting was lovely rounding off a quintessentially English summer’s day.»
Thanks dad, time to cultivate my love for trekking the bucolic pastures our great nation!

Nice location and internal décor, food was average bit overpriced and slow service.
shame as it could be great

Recently refurbished and reopned after having been closed for 8 years or so.
Village pub /​restaurant with contemporary décor.
Only stopped in for a few pints, have not tried the food yet — but what I saw of it it looked pretty tasty — not gastro pub but not your brake bros frozen crap either. Also they are opening a deli on the premises, selling locally produced sausages, meat etc.
So 4 stars for now on the basis it looks very promising — this may increase to 5 once I have sampled the food!
p. s. Peroni on draught — always a good sign.
