The Heritage Bar, St Albans

i been to this bar and it now is buon amici. admittedly not many of the bars have done well here except radio days due to bein very out of the way.the restaraunt is great upstairs now as it is buon amici which used to be on the collinade christopher place opposite pizza express on verulam road. the restaraunt supports it self very well. the bar how ever is reserverd i think for diners only or special functions. how ever i have heard that this is because it may be going to have a refurb and the existing landlord restaranteer is in the process of relaunching the bar in near future. i will revisit when time is right and post more.
restaraunt 9/10
bar 4/10

Harry Smiths, St Albans

i read the comments on this pub and decided to see for myself if it s as bad as most make out.in all fairness i thought it would be fun to get a true feel by visiting on various days over a month. its true to say there are familiar faces but thats cool because its there local.some nights are quiet but then so was most other pubs when i left..thursday and saturdays were the best for me as they had live jazz band playing in the main bar area.there was new faces and very pleasant cheerfull atmosphere.i didnt try the beeer but there was plenty of spirits i enjoyed.:)if your going to visit try a thursday, saturday for the jazz or sunday for the roast dinners,weirdly thats the only food serving day?????? mystery !!!! because the food was very home made.
