Situated adjacent to the Odyssey cinema, this independent Grade II-listed pub reopened in 2015 after significant renovation and now has a modern interior feel plus a large and pleasant garden which includes a new heated pergola. The pub stocks a rotating range of cask beers and strives to include at least one Hertfordshire ale - discount is available for CAMRA members. A minimum of two traditional ciders are also stocked. The pub is well known for its good quality menu of British classic dishes and Sunday roasts. It hosts bi-monthly brewery tap take overs and occasional restaurant pop-ups with speciality menus. A well-attended quiz is held every Tuesday, with a film specific quiz on the last Wednesday of each month in concert with the adjacent cinema. There is an annual Summer Beer Festival held on the first weekend of July and a Stout and Porter Festival every January.
Historic Interest
Originally the Alma, the pub changed its name due to the nearby (now closed but preserved) railway station on the old St Albans to Hatfield line. The pub underwent a major renovation in 2014/15 which included the removal of its old central semi-circular bar and installation of a relocated replacement at one end of the building.
