| I gave this a go on Saturday afternon. Nice pub. Problem is bar staff will serve people in the centre of the long bar first, even if others have been waiting longer first. They also had a new guy who was a bit clueless. hertsboy - 2 Feb 2010 15:51 |
| I think it depends what you are looking for with regard to this pub. During the daytime it is a good example of a Wetherspoon pub. Reasonable ales and food at a good price in a beautiful setting. At weekends it becomes a Lloyds bar with DJs, music and dancing. Two very different animals but you know what you are getting before you enter. The earlier comment about googling assault seems unfair. If you google any nightclub/late night bar with the word assault, you will get hits. It seems the majority of St Albans goes to this pub on a weekend night so it can't be too bad and feel sure the police would intervene if there was a serious problem. You get what you pay for and if you want an expensive pint then go to any of the other pubs in St Albans but if you want a value pint in a beautiful old building with maybe a dance later, give it a go.

| How long has this pub been a Lloyds bar? Nice building shame about the weekend revellers! If you google/yahoo '"waterend barn" assault' you'll find stories of trouble. Incidently, one of the managers, Ian, claimed to have looked at CCTV coverage of an assault. He reckons he pinpointed , the night and where an assult took place and looked through 90 mins of CCTV coverage...but this was done in just 5 minutes!! A guy who was attacked had Aspergers. hertsboy - 2 Jan 2010 10:49 |
| Great building, I thought a shame it had turned to a wetherspoons but the selections of beer, and quality, was good when I last visited. Jury still out on this one for me. Judging by other comments I've been lucky not to visit at the weekend. RedHarvest - 18 Dec 2009 16:14 |
| This pub may be okay during the day. But weekends night it is frequnted by Chavs. The female Chavs are more aggressive than the males and will punch you in ther face if they deem you 'looked at them in a funny way'. Avoid this pub at night. Bouncers will take the side of chavvy females everytime. hertsboy - 30 Nov 2009 14:12 |
