El Bar de Tapas in Stevenage is a charming little spot for authentic Spanish fare, with top-notch food, a warm vibe, and friendly service that makes it a real winner for a casual night out.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The food is absolutely spot on – authentic Spanish tapas that's fresh, full of flavour, and hits the spot, with standout dishes like chorizo and cod croquettes that keep you coming back.
  • The atmosphere is cosy and welcoming, perfect for a relaxed meal with friends or a special occasion, tucked away in the heart of Stevenage.
  • Staff are incredibly friendly and make you feel right at home, with quick and efficient service that doesn't leave you waiting around.
  • Great value for money, especially with deals like the lunch menu offering three dishes for just £13.95 – it's a bargain for a satisfying meal.
  • It's a family-run spot that combines the best of imported Spanish ingredients with local produce, giving that genuine taste of Spain without breaking the bank.
Areas for Improvement
  • One or two dishes, like the paella, might come across as a bit plain or underwhelming compared to the rest of the menu, so it pays to choose carefully.
  • They're closed on Mondays, which could be a downer if you're planning a mid-week outing and fancy a tapas fix.
  • As it's a smaller venue, it might get cosy during busier times, so booking ahead is a must to avoid disappointment.

93/100
Boom Battle Bar in Stevenage is a cracking spot for a fun night out with mates, packed with games and a buzzing vibe, but watch out for the costs and limited food choices.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The variety of games is brilliant – from axe throwing and karaoke to augmented reality darts and shuffleboard, there's something for everyone to get stuck into and have a laugh.
  • The staff are really friendly and helpful, making you feel welcome and ensuring you have a great time, especially during activities like axe throwing.
  • The atmosphere is lively and fun, perfect for groups, dates, or even corporate events, with a cool vibe that gets you in the mood for some friendly competition.
  • Cocktails are a highlight – they're delicious and add to the overall enjoyment, like the Zombie cocktail that's highly recommended.
Areas for Improvement
  • It can get quite pricey, especially for smaller groups, with things like electronic darts costing £40 per group, which might not feel like great value compared to other spots.
  • Service at the front desk isn't always up to scratch; some folks have mentioned staff being more interested in chatting among themselves than helping out.
  • There doesn't seem to be much in the way of food options – you might end up shrugging and heading elsewhere for a bite, which is a bit of a letdown.
  • It's not ideal for smaller gatherings or if you're looking for deals, as there aren't many discounts available, and it's strictly over 18s after 7pm, so keep that in mind for family outings.

The Broken Seal Tap Room in Stevenage is a cracking little microbrewery that's all about top-quality craft beers and a warm, community feel – a real gem for beer enthusiasts.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The beer selection is absolutely spot on – a fantastic range of fresh, seasonal brews and even some Belgian options, perfect for anyone who loves exploring new flavours.
  • The staff are incredibly friendly and welcoming, making you feel right at home from the moment you walk in.

  • They've got a nice selection of bar snacks to go with your drinks, adding to the overall experience without needing to head elsewhere.
Areas for Improvement
  • The location on a busy high street means it might involve a bit of a trek or a walk along a main road, which isn't ideal if you're not up for it.
  • It doesn't open until the afternoon, around 2 PM, so it's not the best spot if you're after a morning pint or an early start to your day.

Lavish is a cracking spot in Stevenage for Mediterranean-inspired grub and a warm, welcoming vibe that'll make any meal out feel special.
Pros and Cons
What's Great

Areas for Improvement
  • It can feel a bit more formal and upscale, which might not suit if you're after a laid-back, casual pint with mates.
  • Children aren't allowed after 5pm on Fridays and Saturdays, so it could be tricky for family outings on those evenings.
  • Bookings for larger groups require a deposit and direct contact, which adds a bit of hassle if you're planning something spontaneous.

Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • They've got a fantastic selection of beers on tap, perfect for settling in with mates for a good chat.
  • The atmosphere is spot on, with live bands that really get the crowd going and a cozy vibe that's just inviting.
  • Outdoor seating and a lovely garden area make it ideal for sunny days or a quick pint outside.
  • Plenty of TVs for catching the football, plus a pool table for some friendly competition.

  • The food is a real highlight; authentic Filipino and Thai dishes that are delicious, reasonably priced, and a hidden gem not to miss.
Areas for Improvement
  • One potential downside is that the review mentioned a caveat with the service or something similar, but it was cut off – might mean waits for food or drinks can vary.
  • It's a bit of a shame there's no website for easy info, so you might have to pop in or call to check details.
  • The operating hours seem a tad confusing from what's listed, which could lead to surprises if you're planning a visit.

Rump and Wade is a charming British brasserie in Stevenage with tasty food, friendly service, and great perks like a rewards scheme, though it has its occasional service snags.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The staff are always so friendly and attentive, making you feel right at home from the moment you walk in.
  • The food is spot on – good, honest British dishes with fresh ingredients, and they do a cracking job with rarer cuts of meat cooked low and slow.
  • Prices are reasonable for what you get, and their rewards scheme is a brilliant bonus, offering free cocktails or discounts to keep you coming back.
  • It's got a nice, welcoming decor and a convenient location in the heart of Stevenage, perfect for a casual meet-up.
  • They've got live music on the last Friday of every month, plus options like bottomless brunch, which adds a fun vibe to the place.
Areas for Improvement
  • There can be a bit of a wait for drinks at times, which might put a dampener on things if you're in a rush.
  • Some extras, like marshmallows on a hot chocolate, come with an additional charge, which feels a tad cheeky for what it is.
  • Service might not always be consistent, as one visit could be smooth sailing while another has a few hiccups.

Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The drinks are incredibly affordable, making it a brilliant spot for a cheeky pint without emptying your wallet.
  • The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, especially with the new landlords who really know how to make everyone feel at home.
  • It's a top choice for sports fans, with plenty of screens for watching the footy and a decent dart board for a bit of fun.

Areas for Improvement
  • Parking can be an absolute nightmare, especially on busier days like match days, so you might end up walking a bit.
  • The food from the van isn't the cheapest option out there, which could add up if you're planning a full meal.
  • It seems like the place might have had some ups and downs, as one review hinted at it being turned around recently – worth checking if everything's running smoothly.

A Traditional pub with locals however the quality of their cask beer was very poor on our visit. We have now deleted this from our places to visit when in the Old part of Stevenage.

The Coach and Horses is a welcoming pub in Stevenage with a lively vibe, great staff, and fun activities, though it has a few quirks that keep it from being flawless.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The staff are absolutely brilliant and really make you feel welcome, with their friendly smiles and top-notch service.
  • It's got a cracking atmosphere – lively and fun, perfect for catching sports on the screens or enjoying live music on weekends.
  • They've got a good selection of drinks, served with a smile, and little touches like a roaring fire make it cosy on a chilly evening.
  • Plenty of seating and a pool table, which is a nice bonus, especially in a smaller town like Stevenage.
Areas for Improvement
  • The operating hours look a bit muddled from what I've seen, which might leave you scratching your head about when it's actually open.
  • It can get a tad laddish at times, which is great if you're up for a laugh, but might not be everyone's cup of tea if you prefer something quieter.
  • With an overall rating of 4.0, there are probably a few mixed opinions out there that aren't showing in the latest reviews, so it might not be perfect for all occasions.
  • No website means it's trickier to check out menus or events in advance, which is a shame.
