These are some of the restaurants in Hemel, Tring and Berkhamsted that YOU cannot wait to visit when lockdown eases

With dining out - in outdoor areas - just around the corner, we asked our readers what restaurants and pubs in Dacorum, they would be heading to first, when lockdown eases.

The Prime Minister announced the four-stage plan in the easing of lockdown restrictions to MPs in the House of Commons on Monday, February 22.

He made a key number of announcements, including the dates the Government plans non-essential shops, beauty services and hospitality will be able to reopen.

All dates for each stage of the easing of lockdown restrictions are dependent on four tests being met.

In the second stage of the plan - no earlier than April 12 - hospitality venues can serve people outdoors only. There will be no need for customers to order a substantial meal with alcohol, and no curfew - although customers must order, eat and drink while seated.

In the third stage - no earlier than May 17 - Indoor hospitality will reopen.

So, we asked our readers, which places they have missed the most during lockdown – and here’s which restaurants, pubs and cafes they nominated as their favourites.
