I&rsquo;ve popped in a few times for drinks, but finally tried the food. The portion size for the burger and chips was huge&mdash;honestly, two of us could have shared one. It&rsquo;s a solid local spot, though I&rsquo;d still lean toward just grabbing a pint here.

Atiq was really helpful when we ordered. The ordering room itself is nicely decorated.

The chicken satay was so fresh and tender. Really appreciate the quality of the ingredients here.

Decent spot for a quick bite. It&#39;s spacious, tables are kept clean. Food came out hot, even the fries. Not the cheapest but location works for me.

Lovely spot for a light lunch. I appreciate how fresh the ingredients are in their salads - the greens were crisp and the avocado perfectly ripe. It felt like a healthy, nourishing choice. The atmosphere is very relaxing too.

The staff were so kind and patient with my little one. Our food arrived quickly, which made for a really relaxed lunch. A nice, easy experience.

Popped into Charlie&#39;s with a friend while in St Albans. The coffee is genuinely the best around here. The staff are all so lovely and chatty, which made it a perfect spot to catch up. Will definitely be my go-to for a coffee meet-up now.

Popped in for a solo breakfast and went for the avocado toast. It was spot on&mdash;really fresh, thick-cut sourdough and a generous sprinkle of seeds on top. The menu is huge though, almost too many options. Spent a good five minutes just deciding!

I was unable to make my 3.30 reservation due to a family problem and the Manager kindly held my table for an hour. A big thankyou to all the staff at the Toby Inn Hemel Hempstead for an enjoyable afternoon and good food.

The drunken noodles were tasty, and the prawn hot pot was a real highlight. What made the evening so nice was the service&mdash;friendly and attentive without being overbearing. They checked in just enough to make sure everything was alright.

Been coming here for lunch for years. The menu&#39;s got a bit of everything, which is handy. Staff are always friendly and quick to notice if you need anything. A solid local spot.

Been grabbing breakfast here for years. The breakfast sandwich is spot on, and it&#39;s right by the station so I can dash in and out. Coffee&#39;s always good and hot. A bit pricey these days, but you&#39;re paying for the location.

Great for a quick drink after work. Bartender knows his stuff, cocktails are solid. A bit pricey, but you&#39;re paying for the vibe. Got the old fashioned, spot on.

Cleanest buffet I&#39;ve seen. Tables and floors were spotless, which is rare for this style of dining. Makes a difference when you&#39;re serving yourself.

Been coming here for years, always skip the buffet. The squid with garlic and chilli is spot on, just the right kick. Beef in chilli oil&rsquo;s got that proper depth of flavour. It&rsquo;s the real deal if you want something authentic.

Been ordering from this place since I moved in nearby. The steamed buns are always spot on. Service is quick and reliable every single time. For the price, you really can&#39;t go wrong.

Been coming here for years, staff are always polite and quick. Last week they sorted out a mix-up with my order without any fuss, just got on with it. That&#39;s what keeps me coming back.
