The Duke of Marlborough, St Albans

I think they've done a really good job on this pub. My other half appreciates the real ales and I like the wine. Much better than it was. Well done!

Waterend Barn, St Albans

We went here for lunch today and it was really good. I was pleasantly surprised as I really don't like chain pubs. Not sure what it would be like on a Fri/Sat night - I hear it's full of youngsters. However for a weekday lunchtime to sit in the garden in the sun it's a winner. Quite cheap too.

The Glass House, St Albans

I've just read the comment posted about the staff last summer. I have to say that I think the staff now are 100x better. Last summer it was impossible to get served, staff would be milling about the wrong side of the bar and usually on their mobiles. At least now the bar is visibly cleaner with friendly staff (one or two quite good looking!!) and in my opinion really high standards. Oh and I too really like the garden - hate the smoking ban!
