Reopened September 2007 as a Mitchells & Butlers' Vintage Inn and situated on the east side of St Albans not far from the Alban Way footpath. In this 18th century pub, drinkers and diners are welcome in the 8 separate drinking areas which are of varying sizes and on different levels - including a meeting room which will comfortably seat 14 people. Private bookings are taken. Whilst there is no separate restaurant, there are areas suitable for families away from the main bar. The food selection encompasses traditional pub food as well as an interesting selection of seasonal starters. There are vegetarian and vegan options. Refurbished in July 2015 to encompass a more traditional themed pub/bar ethos throughout, there is a large lawned garden and garden/patio food service in season. If you are parking be sure to log your registration no, into the pub computer system to avoid a fine. Dogs welcome.
