Best Restaurants for Outdoor Dining in Bishop's Stortford

Fantastic food, the roast beef was so tender and the range of vegetables was amazing. The service was exceptional we were shown our seats immediately, menu’s provided and food served quite quickly. The young lady who served us was extremely pleasant polite and very attentive. Overall our experience today was very pleasant, one we will repeat again in the near future. I have no hesitation in highly recommending the Host, fantastic food, service and excellent value for money.

Beautiful restaurant with an amazing view. Had the evening brunch with the unlimited cocktails. Everything was of a very high standard, including food and service. Our waitress was amazing, and catered to every need including blankets to sit on the terrace after our meal. Not the cheapest, but well worth the money. Definitely recommend a visit!

Such good tacos! I’ve been here twice now and everything is so tasty and authentic

Yummy! So filling & great value everything was good. Only thing is it’s winter so wish they hot hot drink on the menu. I was with my daughter who unfortunately has a cold and couldn’t get a drink because all their drinks were in the fridge. Only reason I’ve removed one star.

Ourselves and two other couples get together once a month for a meal at different restaurants and pubs. We chose the Sword in Hand as it has a good reputation for food, and isn’t far from where we live. The meal was exquisite, 4 of us having the “Christmas pie” and thoroughly enjoyed it. The other 2 had chicken schnitzel, and fish and chips, who also had no complaints. The service was impeccable, giving extra commendation to the younger staff who were very attentive, ensuring we were happy with the meals and drinks. I would definitely recommend a visit.
