The Old Bell Pub - Harpenden

I had a lovely meal here last night with friends.
When booked informed them that one person required gluten free and was told not to worry, we can cater for you.
Still sceptical when I arrived, as we sat, the waitress asked who was gluten free in the party, and when handing out the menus, she gave me a gluten free menu and assured me that everything was gluten free on this menu. and prepared in a separate area of the kitchen, and they were aware of cross contamination!!
There was a lot of choice, to include battered fish n chips, but I decided on a burger in a bun with chips ( hadn't had this for years!!) which was lovely, served with bacon, cheese & a fried egg on top! Chips were crispy on the outside and fluffy in the middle!!
I wasn't sure I had left room for dessert, but I couldn't resist when the menu came back out again!!
I had the choice of ice-cream, crème brulee, salted caramel, brownie & cheesecake sundae or fruit crumble. I had the sundae and it was to die for- so yummy.
My friends and I can't wait to go back to this pub!!
