“One of a small chain of reasonably priced eateries in Hertfordshire specialising in sustainability and quality ingredients”, born off the Portobello Road in 2002; even if it’s not hitting its original heights, by all accounts “you’re on safe ground” at the eighteenth-century converted coach house (fish is particularly rated) and fans just “love the outside courtyard space” too.

“Very good all round at this price” and now “back on form after an inconsistent couple of years”, Andrei Lussmann’s converted eighteenth-century coach house is “a reliable choice for a decent meal out in an otherwise unexceptional culinary town”. It is part of a five-strong Herts-based group (Berkhamsted the most recently opened) with a strong emphasis on sustainable fish.

“A real pleasure to visit when in Harpenden” – this eighteenth-century former coach house “maintains consistently high standards” and the brasserie fare “is excellent for this price bracket” (especially the fish, approved by the Marine Stewardship Council). Stop Press – in December 2021, owner Andrei Lussmann was due to add a fifth branch, Lussmanns Sustainable Fish & Grill restaurant, to his Herts group, on the site of the old Bills in Berkhamsted.
