The Old Dog, Herongate

Helpful and polite staff with prompt service, there was a good range of ales and interesting bar menu (range of sandwiches, pie of the day, pint of prawns, etc) along with an overwhelming specials board, and a range of tables to suit different sized groups. It had an old, traditional and welcoming feel to it, prices were reasonable, and other customers seemed respectable. The only negative points are that there wasn't a massive amount of seating due to the long thin nature of the bar, and it was every so slightly cold (although it was December, and there was a lit log fire down one end). Definitely recommended, especially if there is a designated driver in the group in order to allow the others to take full advantage of the ales on offer.
