Elevenses in St Albans

Was a lovely afternoon treat boating Charlie’s. Lovely atmosphere, the food was yummy and tea was very nice (and strong! Love strong tea!) obviously less strong is available! They have a really good selection of vegan/non-diary alternatives which is super!! Space to sit indoors or outside as well as takeaway, which seemed to be very busy too. Definitely a good sign. Will definitely be back. The team there were lovely and friendly too - thank you xx

This place was recommended by a friend and I’m so pleased that we tried it. From the moment I phoned to book we felt welcome. I called the day before for a table of six on a Friday night for my daughter’s birthday and although they seemed busy when we arrived and one of their chefs was off they still took our booking which I was very grateful for. The food was lovely and the portions were generous. We all enjoyed our food, both starters and mains. The year before we’d gone to an Itallian in London and ended up with tiny overpriced portions but these portions were the perfect size even for the most hungry of our group! I didn’t manage all of mine but was kindly given a box to bring it home in. We would definitely like to visit this restaurant again.

Great atmosphere really lively. The service was very quick and staff very attentive The food was so good! We all enjoyed our meals We will definitely be back

Fabulous takeaway from my favourite St Albans restaurant. Thanks again for lovely fresh and delicious food we all enjoy so much - always delivered quickly, hot and with a smile. Highly recommend ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Wonderful independent cafe, with incredible food and service! Service - owner and staff incredibly friendly and hugely welcoming Food - wonderful savoury and sweet delights - huge selection and great to have variety of portion sizes too (e.g., my mum was not overly hungry, so had a bite sized treat. I had a bigger appetite, so decided to have a bigger pastry) Drinks - coffee (hot and tasty). Have good selection of teas too. Wonderful little tables outside - great on a warm day.
