The Crooked Chimney in Welwyn Garden is a country pub oozing rural charm and rustic character. Our picturesque surroundings provide the perfect backdrop for savouring the hearty, seasonal pub-food on our menu, and the carefully nurtured cask ales and fine wines gracing our bar.

Serving the Lemsford community for more than 200 years, the building was originally a farmhouse called Hornbeam Hall. Its use as an inn dates back to 1756 when it was called The Chequers. In 1777 Searanckes Brewery of Hatfield acquired the building which remained as The Chequers until 1968 when it was renamed The Crooked Chimney after its distinctive crooked brick chimney

Serving the local community for more than 250 years, our pub is near Stanborough Reedmarsh, a magnet for bird watchers. There's a nature trail that follows the River Lee and two scenic lakes.

We visited Saturday 23rd December. We were very unfortunate on our visit. There were only 2 staff working. 3 members of staff had called in sick. The wonderful young lady and the manager were run ragged. They gave 110% they should be rewarded for how hard they worked. Not knocked . To the staff that didn't turn up . Think next time about the poor lady who is pregnant that had to run around all night.

I booked my table 24 hours before visiting the Crooked Chimney with my wife. On arriving I was told the staff had no knowledge of my booking even though I showed them the email confirmation I received from Open Table ensuring my reservation had gone through. The staff at the Crooked Chimney informed me they had no spare tables as they were fully booked. The manager said that although they had no tables in the main part of the restaurant they could sit us in a part of the pub not being used. As it was Saturday night, difficult to get in someone else and we were hungry we accepted but sitting in an empty room, with no other guests did not make for great ambience on what was suppose to be a special night. I’m not putting the Crooked Chimney down, the manager apologised for what happened and although it was a nuisance for staff to keep popping into the usually unoccupied part of the restaurant they did look after us well and the food was good. However, I do think Open Table need to work with establishments to ensure this doesn’t happen to others. Personally I would not have faith in using Open Table to book an evening out as our evening was ruined.

Really poor - the food was below average and even then it was overpriced. Service slow. Ok as a pub though.

I have been to the crooked chimney on many occasions but not for the last few years. I'm not sure if it has changed hands but based on the experience this time I wouldn't go again! It started by them not having our reservation, even though it was confirmed via OpenTable. However as it was quiet, this wasn't an issue and they found a table for us. The sadly it went downhill from here in terms of the food.... We chose 3 roast dinners and one child's pasta with garlic bread. The garlic bread was burnt. The 2 roast beef dinners - the beef was very tough and dry, like it had either been reheated or had been left under a warmer for a very long time. It was so dry you couldn't even cut some of it. All three roast dinners the vegetables were cold and the supposedly roast vegetables were soggy! All of this and we were one of the first diners in the restaurant given it was 1215. We had to leave by 1.30pm so didn't have the chance to reject them and them make again, given the food didn't arrive until 1pm anyway. I did tell the waitress when we left because they hadn't been over prior to this to check if everything was ok. I also heard someone else sending their food back as we were leaving for the same reasons and another couple left when they were told it would be a 90 minute wait for food. The restaurant was cold too, we ate in our coats. They had fireplaces but no fires lit and I dont think any heating on. It is a real shame because it is a lovely bar/restaurant and the food used to be lovely too.

Very acceptable service and as some of our group were fifteen minutes late due to traffic, we were not made to feel awkward about it. Although busy, service was not delayed.
