As Watford faces a cloudy and rainy Easter weekend, why not stay warm and dry inside with one of these great Sunday roasts?

There will be light showers on Good Friday with intermittent sunny patches, and grey skies are expected for Saturday and Easter Sunday with temperatures not rising above 13 degrees the whole weekend.

Given the unreliable Great British weather, you might not be in the mood for a springtime walk.

Instead, you could try one of these pubs in the Watford area that have been singled out by Tripadvisor reviewers for their Sunday roasts.
