About This Pub

Ah, The Bricklayers Arms, what a delightful little spot in Hitchin! From what I've gathered from the reviews, it's got that warm, homely feel where the staff really shine – they're attentive and kind, like that bar lady who wouldn't even take a tip for helping out. Whether you're popping in for a G&T in the garden or enjoying some jazz on the jukebox, the atmosphere is just spot on for unwinding. The drinks service is top-notch too, with a good range of beers and spirits, and the outdoor area is perfect for a sunny Bank Holiday. On the flip side, the opening times can be a bit confusing, so it's worth double-checking before you head over, and it might not always be buzzing if you're after a more energetic night out. All in all, it's a solid choice for a laid-back visit, and I'd say it's well worth a stop if you're in the area – just go with the flow and enjoy the simple pleasures!

Pros and Cons

Pros
  • The staff are incredibly friendly and welcoming, always going the extra mile to make you feel at home – like letting you use the facilities without a fuss.
  • It's got a lovely, cosy atmosphere that's perfect for a good chat, with a mix of indoor charm and a nice outdoor garden for sunnier days.
  • The place is spotlessly clean, from the bar to the loos, and they've got a decent selection of drinks, including fine beers and spirits with some great deals.
  • You can enjoy a bit of cool jazz on the jukebox or just relax in the yard, making it a great spot for a chilled afternoon or evening.
Cons
  • The operating hours seem a tad inconsistent based on what's listed, which might catch you out if you're planning a visit.
  • It can feel a bit quiet in the early afternoons or evenings sometimes, so if you're after a lively buzz, it might not always hit the mark.

Lovely lady behind the bar let me take my 3 year old nephew to the toilet without a purchase. Wouldn’t take a tip for it either, saying “don’t be silly”. Atmosphere was great and welcoming, both staff and patrons were lovely and kind, pointed us in the right direction. Would recommend visiting for a nice atmosphere.

Cute quaint pub! The bartender was playing Pokémon Go and we got to share trainer IDs! Had several drinks and was there for hours talking to new friends and listening to music. Cheers from across the pond! 🇺🇸🍻

Sunday, after looking round the market. Friendly local. Very clean with nice yard and garden. Good for a G n T and cool jazz if you use the juke box. Don't know about evenings I'm afraid. Nice yard on three levels and directly opposite Hitchin market with a view of the church.

Good, clean old fashioned style pub. Good location opposite the market. It has a range of fine beers, friendly staff and double-up offers on many spirits. Not at all crowded early afternoons (Sunday).

We got lucky on a hot Bank holiday and spent a good few hours in the beer garden. The drinks service was amazing - the guy on the bar was so attentive, and the space inside looks lovely, even though we were outside all the time. Facilities were clean and would definitely go back!
