The Red Cow in Cheshunt

Ah, The Red Cow – it's one of those pubs that just feels like a proper local gem, you know? From chatting with others who've been there, the staff really stand out; they're so welcoming and make every visit feel special, whether you're popping in for a quick drink or staying for the evening. There's always something going on, like spoken word nights, darts, or DJ sessions that turn into a lively weekend bash, and the beer garden is just the ticket for a relaxed afternoon when the sun's out. The beers are spot on too, and it's a great spot if you're into watching sports with mates. But, to keep it real, they've had to shut the kitchen on Sundays because of rising costs, so if food's on your mind, you'll need to plan ahead or head elsewhere that day. It can sometimes feel a bit subdued, depending on when you go, and those steps at the door might not be ideal for everyone. All in all, it's a solid choice for a laid-back night out – I'd say give it a try if you're in the area, as the positives definitely outweigh the niggles!
