The Verulam Arms in St Albans

We went for a Sunday roast and was not disappointed, crispy roast potatoes, cauliflower cheese, roast parsnips and carrots, Yorkshire pud and delicious lamb. Definitely one of the best roast in St Albans. We will be back. Thank you, Charlotte and your team. Betty

We love Charlotte and her welcoming staff. Decent range of beers and wine, with good pub fare! Garden area is a lovely spot in the summer.

Lovely, warm service and the 2 stars are for them. The food was godawful. I ordered the halloumi burger which was a couple of small pieces of dried up halloumi on the words cheapest bun, quite literally crumbled on contact with my fingertips, some underdone aubergine , a minuscule slice of pepper and lettuce. Chips were fine. I wish I’d taken a picture to share the agony but was busy drowning my sorrows in a fairly decent Malbec. This is a really nice pub, and the food used to be great back when it was the Foragers. Now it’s very bad and expensive for what it is. Would cheerfully return for a drink, but lesson learned regarding the food.

A great pub within walking distance of the friend we were visiting. We couldn't go to his usual local as it didn't do lunch on a Monday, but this proved to be a great find. Almost made me wish I live in St Albans! Very friendly staff, good food, good choice of ale.

This pub has improved on previous ownership but stick to keg beer as the cask is obviously sponsored by Sarsons.

We dropped in for a quick lunch after a dog walk in the park. The food was excellent and great value. We’ll definitely be back especially as Charlotte is very friendly and made a big fuss of our dog.

Stopped by the pub on Saturday for a quick drink and few bar snacks. Great service, great food so much so that we decided to go back on Sunday with the family for a roast. The Sunday roast is the best if I have tried in any pub in St Albans and I have been visiting for over 20 years. Well done Charlotte! You run a great little pub with really good food. Brian ☘️

Been before for some good beer but on this occasion, the beer was awful! Had to ask for it to be changed to a different beer 3 (yes 3!) times and each pint was sour and undrinkable! We gave up. They had £35 of our cash and we had a very sour taste in our mouths!

Went on a Friday night for the Beer and Cider festival in the courtyard. Great atmosphere, friendly bar staff and good ciders. Burgers cooked on the bbq were delicious. Dogs welcome and heaters kept us warm later in the evening.

Alex and team went out of their way to make sure we had a great night celebrating my birthday. Extended a table in a tight spot to accommodate a late arrival. Can’t fault the place, care and attn given to a friend who is a Coeliac when ordering. Lovely warm atmosphere.. can’t wait for spring /summer to use the garden

The place looks great, very stylish and a nice place to meet with friends however the food is really lacking. Our food arrived luke warm, as did many other customers who returned theirs. One woman on the table next to us actually went into the deli to get a pasty after waiting so long. Hub browns were grey in colour, very unappealing. Food tasted fine but nothing special, no great taste to anything. When collecting our half eaten plates no member of staff asked everything was ok with the food. Slow service, had to ask 3 times before the bill was brought over and this was not during a busy period. Also waited 45 minutes for food to arrive which considering we ordered eggs and hub browns was very long.

We stumbled across this pub whilst in St Albans looking for a Sunday roast. It was EPIC, the bar staff were lovely and the food was both great tasting but at £12.95 for the roast Beet was really good value. Dog friendly too which was a bonus!

Great food, great fresh beer. We had Sunday lunch here last week was amazing!! staff were very attentive!
