A McMullen Pub and Driving Range in Ware, Hertfordshire. Part of the McMullen family since 1950, rebuilt in 2016. Julia
(840)

Seriously relaxed dining with a family golfing centre to boot. Named after the local area on which the pub sits with a nod to historic alcoholic beverages of old. Formerly the site of the original East Herts Golf Club it became Chadwell Springs 9 hole Golf course in 1974. The land is formed over chalk caves, the risk of which was highlighted when a seven-foot tree planted one day was below ground the next! It is the water in these caves that to this day is used in the brew of McMullens local ales. Fresh food, fine wines, local hand crafted ales from the Hertford Brewery and ethical coffee have all been selflessly and fastidiously tested – just to be sure things are perfect for you. Enjoy the pub on its own or after the driving range, putting green, 9 hole course or foot golf- the perfect way to build an appetite for the entire family. All that comes delightfully wrapped up in this charming pub with roaring log fires, heated patio and crammed full of cosy private nooks and crannies.

🎉❤️ **19 YEARS OF DEBBIE! ❤️🎉**

Our records show that our lovely Debbie started her journey with McMullen’s **19 years ago today!** 🥂 And what a journey it’s been!

Over those 19 years, Debbie has achieved so much, both personally and professionally. From getting married and raising three children, who are now grown adults (how did that happen?! 😱), to continuing to grow, develop and pave her way into management. We’re incredibly proud to have been part of her journey! ❤️

And if you’ve ever experienced Debbie’s organisation skills when it comes to Christmas bookings, you’ll understand exactly why some of our guests have lovingly named her our **🎄 Christmas Angel! 👼** With her attention to detail, dedication and commitment, she makes Christmas magic happen year after year!

Debbie, we want to say a huge THANK YOU for everything you do, for the care you show our guests, the support you give your team, and for being the wonderful person you are. ❤️

19 years of memories, milestones, hard work and laughter… and we’re not quite ready to let you go just yet! 😂

So, dare I say it…

🥂 **HERE’S TO THE NEXT 19 YEARS!** 🥂

Lots of love from all of us at The King’s Mead and McMullen’s! ❤️🍻
