This place has always had dodgy regulars, even in the days of Viv and Tina. More important is the quality of the beer, which is now more consistent, and the food, which is now available longer again. Maybe we'll have some more Alehouse beers when Kev finishes at the LRL. This would make it a near perfect pub.

Not the same since Gerry left. Echo the comments from others here about the locals!! Especially if they are sitting at the bar, they look at you as if you've walked across a family grave if you dare push through to order a pint.

A fairly modern even minimalist feel inside but with hops over the central bar hinting at tradition. Wooden floors and a lack of soft furnishings make for a noisy environment. A mix of seating includes drinking shelves against the walls. Some photos of old St Albans.
The on site Alehouse Brewery supplies Farmers Joy and Clipper IPA, Pride Adnams Bitter and TT Landlord also.
Xmas lights up in the windows already!

Had not been in for a while but had a couple of good late drinks in here last night with my mate. Took me about 30 mins to notice the wall with the fire place had gone since my last visit! I am planning on not leaving it so long until my next trip there

Not a bad pub by any means, but it's increasingly cliquey and I'm not convinced the new manager really knows what he's doing. Worse, TFB is becoming the drinking den of some Arfur Daley types, who instruct you to watch their drink while they go to the loo, and say "Sorted!" by way of thanks. Humph. Better news is that the quality of the ales and food is holding up, and the barstaff are hard working and polite. But, but.......
