"When the only redeeming feature of a meal is the ice cream with the puddings you know it isn’t a good sign. Had I not been with my elderly in-laws I’d have complained bitterly about this experience but to avoid spoiling the evening for them I didn’t give honest feedback during the meal hence writing this now. Let’s start with atmosphere, there is none, we were there on a Saturday night and but the time we left there had been 8 people there, considering we were a party of 4 it was hardly a busy night. As for the food? I had rib eye steak, it was the most expensive thing on the menu but I just fancied it, order it cooked medium rare, which then arrived the cremated side of well done. I did point out to the waitress that she needed to feed back to the chef that it was overcooked but the best I got was a fairly blank stare. The menu didn’t say it came with chips and the waitress didn’t bat an eyelid when I ordered a side order of them so I was a little surprised to end up with them both as part of the meal and as a side dish which I ended up paying for. So not exactly what you would call promising. Everyone else had confit duck leg, it is a favourite of mine as well, done slowly so the meat falls apart, sadly their recipe is obviously very different to the one most of us recognise and involves managing to cook the duck until it develops a chewy and unpalatable texture. Puddings, mine was good if you were on a diet as it was the smallest chocolate brownie I think I have seen in a very long time. However at least that was better than the pecan tart, which comprised a brought in pastry case, a few pecans and some caramel sauce on top. The ice creams were the highspot and I thoroughly recommend them – if you do visit I suggest asking for a scoop in a cone and leaving quickly to find somewhere better to eat."

We have just returned from a delicious Sunday lunch at the Priory in Hitchin. The food was superb and the staff very helpful. We would definitely recommend it and will return soon.

Had a lovely experience at the restaurant for afternoon tea. Luke and Marie were incredibly hospitable and the food and staff were fantastic. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and want to thank everyone for a great time.

We held our wedding ceremony in the beautiful Adam Room. Absolutely gorgeous! Thank you to the staff who were looking after us throughout our stay at the hotel. Special thank you to incredible Sue who was running our ceremony, and was keeping us at ease when we were getting some pre-ceremony jitters.

Very poor afternoon tea. This was a buffet style during a craft afternoon. The sandwiches were dry and it was difficult to know what was in them. The ham sandwiches were on the same platter as the vegetarian sandwiches. The scones were also very dry. I would not recommend this venue for afternoon tea. Speisekarte ansehen

We enjoyed a delightful afternoon tea today, September 30th. Everything, from booking to leaving, was fantastic. The staff were wonderful and took good care of us. The tea itself was exquisite - warm scones, delightful cakes, and sandwiches. I highly recommend this experience and am already looking forward to booking again.

My family and I went to Hitchin Priory for Christmas Day lunch, and the entire experience was exceptional. From the staff to the service to the food, everything was excellent. The ambiance of the room was relaxing, with well-spaced out tables creating a convivial atmosphere. If they have the same setup next year, we will definitely be returning. Our visit to Hitchin Priory truly made our Christmas Day special. Thank you to everyone involved.

Had breakfast here this morning as non residents- family where staying and we joined them for £10 each. We ate in the library which was a nice open room but maybe we hit a peak timing wise since they ran out of scrambled eggs and also tomato ketchup and uncut bread plus plate warmer not working and some of the stacked plates had food residues remaining . What we had was good enough for a buffet breakfast just seemed to be understaffed and under supplied with the basics. Speisekarte ansehen

This was the perfect spot for us to stay as our in-laws live not far away in Pirton and it was an easy commute to see all the beautiful areas. Hitchin is filled with a lot of lovely little shops and you can walk straight out of the Priory to get to the shopping area. The Priory has gorgeous secluded grounds and a wonderful breakfast in the morning. It was an ancient monastery, now turned into a charming hotel. The rooms are clean and it’s very quiet as it sits back on it’s own grounds.. to me, it’s the best place to stay in Hitchin.

This was an afternoon tea to celebrate a friend’s 80th birthday. She was quite disappointed that there were no table decorations of any kind, just a plain white tablecloth on the single long wide table. The meal was mediocre the thinly filled sandwiches were overpowered by the amount of butter used, and there was no explanation of what the fillings actually were. The scones were fine on the top half but overcooked to the point of being crunchy on the bottom. The gluten free cakes and sandwiches were heavy, not nice. When I asked for a refill of English Breakfast tea, I was given decaffeinated tea, not as nice and not asked for. Finally I was quite bemused to be charged an additional £3 for 6...
