About This Pub

Oh, what a charming little find Angelique is in the midst of Stevenage! I've got to say, chatting about it feels like sharing a pint with mates after a great night out. The food really steals the show; think succulent steaks, authentic pizzas that taste like they've been crafted with care, and burgers that are pure British goodness – it's all about fresh ingredients and traditional recipes with a modern twist. The staff are an absolute delight, always smiling and making sure you're looked after, which adds such a warm touch to the whole experience. The atmosphere is spot on too, with its elegant yet cosy setup that's ideal for everything from a lazy breakfast to an evening of cocktails and chats. But, let's be honest, it's not perfect – some dishes, like those ribs, didn't quite live up to the hype for a few, lacking that extra flavour kick, and you might notice the occasional slip in service when it's buzzing. Still, with an overall solid rating and glowing feedback, it's a place I'd happily recommend for a balanced, enjoyable visit, as long as you go in with an open mind and perhaps skip straight to the standout menu items.

Pros and Cons

Pros
  • The food is absolutely spot on – from wood-fired pizzas and juicy steaks to hearty burgers, it's all made with fresh ingredients and real passion, leaving you feeling well satisfied.
  • The service is top-notch; the staff are friendly, attentive, and go out of their way to make your visit memorable, like that smiley server who kept everyone cheerful.
  • It's got a lovely atmosphere with modern elegance and a warm, vibrant vibe, perfect for a casual meal or a special occasion in the heart of Stevenage.
  • They offer a great variety on the menu, including breakfast options, cocktails, and deals like the lunch special, so there's something for everyone, any time of day.
Cons
  • Some dishes might not hit the mark every time, like the ribs that lacked depth in flavour, which could leave you wanting a bit more punch.
  • There might be the odd hiccup with certain items or experiences, as one visitor mentioned an issue that wasn't quite detailed, so it's worth keeping expectations in check.
  • Being a busy spot, service could feel a tad rushed during peak times, though it's not a major downfall based on what folks have shared.

I came here with a friend for a meet up and a little hang out. She had heard of it and thought it looked amazing and honestly it was! The food was fantastic, it tasted amazing, my friend and I had a starter each as well as a main and a few cocktails too. It was absolutely fantastic. The only issue I have is the server who served us. At first he was amazing, attentive and overall just fantastic but once we finished our mains and sent for the bill we asked if we could split it: for what I had and what my friend had. He asked if we could figure it out and sort it out between ourselves, this wasn't something we minded as not everyone can remember what a customer has eaten. Once we sorted it out we paid, and everything was fine. I went to finish my drink whilst my friend used the bathroom, however the person who had been serving us just started to stare and watch me as I drank. It was a little bit creepy and me and my friend ended up leaving whilst feeling a little bit uncomfortable. A bit of a bad ending to what was a fantastic experience.

Visited today with family for dinner. Lived in Stevenage all my life and tried many a restaurant but not one like this! The food, the service, the atmosphere. It was one of the best meals I have had in a long time. This is a place I will definitely be returning to! Thank you to all the staff for providing such an amazing experience!!

We tried the new lunch time £9.99 deal. The Ribs were lacking in depth of flavour but fell of the bone and were juicy. The Pizza was far more superior and the sauce tasted authentic. The dough was thin and light and the crust was too. Very enjoyable and a good proportion of cheese. The staff were attentive and nice to engage with. I only removed stars from my ratings because the ribs were quite bland and relied on just the taste of the meat (which was good!) But lacked another more complimentary flavour like bbq. The reason I took a star off atmosphere was because they served us cokes from a glass bottle and didn't pour it, but then as soon as we poured it another staff member came and took the glass bottle. Why didn't the first one just pour the drink? Seemed like two people doing one job. They then offered us water on top of our cokes and we had 4 glasses with drinks so when the food arrived space was limited. Very happy though and will be returning again

What a lovely spot! Went to Stevenage to collect a car and decided to stop on the high street for a quick bite and we were not disappointed. Service was excellent, food was awesome and the decor / set up is really lovely. Toilets were spotless too which is always a bonus!!! Easy 5 star rating from me!!! Thank you!
