The Orange Tree, Baldock

An excellent locals' pub in a residential area just out of town. It just about qualifies as a multi-roomer with lots of different spaces scattered round the central bar, all with a nicely homespun sort of feel. Good and friendly too, with knowledgeable staff. The icing on the cake is the beer range (not to mention the 'proper' ciders): Anarchy Blond Star, Acorn Barnsley Bitter, Buntingford Princess, Titanic Plum Porter, Brewsters Hophead and Tring Mansion Mild, along with the mandatory Abbot and IPA. Definitely the best pub in the area.

Not much from the outside but large, multi spaces pub with quality real ale. A nice alround pub
