Outstanding pub conversion

Old Cross Tavern, Hertford. (Pub, Customers). Published on 04-03-2017

Superb town free house offering a friendly welcome. Up to six cask ales, including a dark beer of some distinction, come from brewers large and small and there is a fine choice of Belgian bottle-conditioned beers. No TV here, just good old-fashioned conversation only broken occasionally on early Sunday evenings with live music. Quiz last Sunday of the month.
