The main menu at The Fish and Eels in Hoddesdon is available Monday to Saturday. Our delicious new seasonal menu is served all day. Full of fresh ingredients and bursting flavours for Spring, our main menu gives you the chance to choose from an array of rustic dishes with real country charm, whenever you like.

Our chefs have created a range of new dishes to enjoy alongside our traditional pub classics such as Fish & Chips, and our heart-warming Steak & Ale Pie.

Why not try our new Mezze Platter? Packed with fresh and flavoursome ingredients, including lentil falafels, hummus, tzatziki and so much more - it’s the perfect sharing platter.

A few of our favourites from our new seasonal menu include our perfectly Seared Fillet of Seabass with pea and pancetta velouté, and our new vegetarian Roast Carrot and Apricot Chutney Tart, topped with goat’s cheese & apple salad.

If you’ve got room for pudding, treat yourself to our Rich Banoffee Pie with digestive biscuit base, topped with toffee fudge, cream and fresh caramelised banana slices – it would be rude not to!
