  • "The sharing steak was ordered rare and it came out medium."
  • "The pastry courses were overcooked to the point of being burnt."
  • "Luxury mac and cheese was small in size and didn't taste of much/was average."

Venue and Atmosphere

Pros:

  • "The venue itself was absolutely stunning and they put so much effort into making things perfect."
  • "It was the perfect blend of an informal reception but with real style, class and intimacy."
  • "The Marshall Room is a wonderful space, and the aircon was an added bonus during the heatwave."
  • "The Kite is a charming venue in the heart of Hitchin."
  • "The Marshall room didn't even need any decoration, it has its own wonderful character."

Cons:

  • "As a pub it was quite spit and sawdust now it is a refined tastefully decorated intimate venue."
  • "The space inside didn't grow with its refurbishment, but the amount of customers did. It's a bit tight."
  • "The drinks are a bit overpriced, the main issue was when the bar tender only poured half a glass of the margarita we had ordered."
  • "The interior space is very limited."
  • "Small inside but good atmosphere. Not sure the need for a DJ when interior space is very limited."
