Bakers Arms in Cheshunt

Ah, Bakers Arms – it's one of those pubs that just feels like a proper British gem, tucked away in Sewardstone near Waltham Abbey, where you can imagine settling in for a pint after a brisk walk. I've heard from mates that the staff go above and beyond to make you feel welcome, with friendly faces ensuring your table's sorted and your glass is never empty for long. The food's generally a winner too, especially their Sunday roasts and classic pub fare, which are spot on for a satisfying feed, and it's brilliant that they welcome dogs, making it ideal for those countryside outings. On the flip side, though, it's not all smooth sailing; a few folks have mentioned waits that drag on, and some dishes haven't quite lived up to expectations, like a chewy starter or a main that felt a bit mishandled. Still, with an overall solid vibe and that cosy, inviting atmosphere, it's worth a visit if you're in the area – just keep your expectations balanced and maybe go on a quieter day for the best experience.
