The Wheatsheaf in St Albans

Had a party of 12 for breakfast and I can’t fault the service or food, wasn’t too much of a wait once we ordered and the food arrived hot and tasty, I personally had the full English and you certainly get your monies worth. Thanks guys!

popped in today to watch the golf, Was so happy to see it on, I was served by laura, Lovely young girl who even though i could tell was stressed really did take the time to explain the menu and prices to me showing me the burger and drink deal, Will be back soon. Thank you laura.

I came in Saturday evening and ordered an ale and wine. The ale was underpoured and asked for it to be topped up. The wine was average at best. The young man who served myself was rude, no eye contact and when asked to wipe a table down, stomped around like a child. I would happily of cleaned the table but the young man pushed me aside and wiped the table down. We also queried the bill and was told that they where unsure of the prices. I also asked for a receipt and was told we do not do them. On asking again I was given a receipt. A very bad experience after a great day at Wembley

Great pub, food fresh and tasty, friendly service. Burger chips and drink deal is fantastic. TVs at each box and decor ready for Euros

Popped into the sports bar. Chilled music and asked for F1 to be put on the screens; no issue. Was a little hungry, so ordered the all day breakfast. This hit the spot! No fuss.

The staff here are amazing the manger was very helpful I think his name was Jesse he helped me book my table for the football and the food here is outstanding for the money you pay.

The food was great. And the service was friendly and professional. Good value for money. Would highly recommend a visit.

The customer service is immaculate and the drinks are on point, they're honestly divine, to die forr

Decent pub to watch the football in, masses of screens and had both champions league and a championship game on. Good service at the bar, £6.90 for a pint, London prices but it is Harpenden so probably about normal these days.

Seen more life down the morgue hated it more telly's then betting shop had all the charm of a punch in the face two bouncers on the door WHAT FOR there was literally four people in there had more fun at a wake needless to say won't b rushing back or recommending

Good food today, good and friendly service and staff nice and pleasant inside

Came for some lunch with a workmate, Rebecca was brilliant and served us both with a smile, and the food was lovely too. Thank you guys

Popped in for a quick lunch was served by Becca, lovely service, very quiet chilled atmosphere food was lovely. Would definitely come back again and recommend

Lovely place.Rebecca smith was amazing, polite honest women. Deffo recommend.

best day ever! Mackenzie looked after us Amazing! She Must get promoted.

I just want to compliment on how amazing the smothered chicken burger was and that the service me and my family got from Mackenzie was really good, the food was perfect I loved everything about the burger and Mackenzie did a really good job on checking in on us and asking if there was anything we needed.

Came here after a hard day for some drinks absolutely lovely environment with lovely staff. I spoke to Mackenzie who told me about the hidden shots. I loved the apple bomb deffo coming back

Favourite place to go in harpenden, thanks to the great service and good food. Especially Mckenzie who is just amazing and knows the drinks menu off the top if her head.

Staff member called Mackenzie was amazing, I will definitely be back soon, the atmosphere was great too, really great time. Thank you!

Service was incredible, Mackenzie was wonderful throughout our visit and very attentive, will definitely come back.

This place is great. I had lunch here, great food will definitely be coming back soon and sure to let my friends and family to come here if there close by

Had a fab time,Rebecca was great with us all,made to feel welcome,will definitely be returning 🍻

Great evening top service top service by Rebecca

Really friendly service with a smile from Rebecca. Recommend this pub 👍

The pub is always clean, and the staff are always very welcoming and friendly. Another excellent point is that the quality of the drinks is always excellent - so they evidently take great care over the operation, which as I have run a bar/restaurant myself in the past, I really do appreciate. The clientele are always friendly, I often come in to finish work projects once I've finished in the office, but also sometimes at weekends or evenings if there is a significant sporting event being shown. All in all, this place is highly recommended.

Service from Rebecca was impeccable. Food was great with everything available on the menu. Inviting and pleasant atmosphere. Would go again.

Called in for a drink during the week, the staff are always very friendly and helpful!

Disappointing. Having read the recent reviews intended to have lunch here today. Staff were not behind bar or inviting. When asked to order they could not tell us if they had certain items as Chef had gone shopping- odd given this was lunch time, they were not busy So unfortunately never got to taste the food. Appreciate things can happen but very lack lustre and disinterested staff.

I visited the Wheasheaf on Mother's day. I had read the reviews and satisfied that this was a good place to visit unfortunately, I was very disappointed by service on the day and highly regret taking my family here. We arrived at 12.30pm, there were very few staff working and it took a while to be seated and given the correct menus (there were to for this occassion). We were informed as we sat down that we had to leave by 2.30pm to allow another reservation. We were not informed that we had to go to the bar to place our orders so waited for a while to be served before realising this. At 1.50pm out food had not arrived so we had to chase this up given we had to leave by 2.30pm. The food arrived at 2pm, the burgers were cold, chicken wings overcooked (burnt), steak cold and rare rather than medium rear. It was absolutely terrible! To add to that, not everyone received their food, we had to remind them that the kids meals were missing. My mother ended up not eating and although they offered us complimentary drinks, this was not the experience we were expecting to have on mother's day. Finally , after that awful experience, they still overcharged us for the chicken wings!!! I would NOT recommend this place and will definately not be returning.

Staff was fine pleasant and polite food wa diabolical cold over done

Superb for a 6 Nations or World Cup social. Good selection of beers and food stuffs. Book in advance as it can get busy.

Amazing pub chain in Harpenden, you can order from your table by a simple app, also every bench has a Tv where you can watch football and more and not being bothered by others. Food is good enough and affordable price.

Food was really good, and exceptional service from Mackenzie! Very friendly and will be returning soon, prices not too bad either

Popped in for a couple of drinks while the rugby was on. Staff friendly and service was quick. A few pale ales on offer which was great.

Amazing bar, alwsys a great atmosphere. Food is cheap but they don't give poor quality its always really lovely. We pop in for lunch or a coffee couple of times a week.

1st visited to this sports pub. Loves it with relaxing atmosphere eating lunch. Will come again.

Had a lovely breakfast here. Food came out piping hot and lovely presentation. Jesse has really turned this pub into somewhere enjoyable to spend time.

Really chilled out venue (just what I like) good food and pleasant service. Will definitely be back

I Dined here the other day and I must say I was absolutely blown away at how amazing and friendly all the staff was, my waiter was absolutely lovely and served us so professionally! I honeslty would recommend to dine here 100% hats off to all the staff here I was told the manager name is Jesse so I would like to personally and majorly thank the manager Jesse and all of his staff for making my dining experience here so pleasurable and exquisite!

Came here for lunch when over in England visiting family. Great service, friendly staff and much better than the typical pub food I was expecting. Glad to see screens up for sports so looking forward to checking back in for lunch and rugby some day soon!

Friday night was not very busy, had a DJ playing some 80s Dance, prices were standard. But the Men's Toilets were disgusting. Hence the score, need to Keep on top off the Amenities in a Pub..

Food was great, staff are lovely, we had a great time.

Very friendly pub with amazing staff the place to go if your in Harpenden, food was perfect and staff go above and beyond

Awful bar extremely rude manager

Great service and lovely food. The staff were beyond helpful and very friendly with any sort of request we had. 10/10

Very helpful. Could not have been more keen to make sure that everything was right.

Isabel y los compañeros maravillosos

Visited Harpenden with family today so decided to try this pub for lunch. Service and food were great. Good atmosphere. Will definitely be returning.

Great service and delicious food. Couldn't have done enough to ensure the kids and I had a great experience.

Great place for sports and reasonably priced food. Staff are always friendly and Ben always makes the effort to make it an enjoyable night with great customer service.

Ale is excellent, ambience comfortable, sport facilities second to none. As for bar staff, employee named Grace has really good customer service skills,service with a smile and attentive. She deserves recognition as she's a good ambassador for the wheatsheaf. Duty manager needs to be more customer friendly.

Very helpful and friendly staff. They Told us about an app which can save us money and collect points. We had a full English and it was lovely.

the cosy ambiance in addition with nice served spirits and beers makes this pub the best place to enjoy your evenings . It's become our go-to spot . Staff always welcoming and smiling ,the Spanish girl behind the bar is such a vibe .Definitely recommend

Love this place for drinks and outside smoking area. Have been visiting for over a year now and never have been let down.

I've been holding a local business networking event at The Wheatsheaf for the past few months and they have been brilliant! They were keen to accommodate us even though our event is a bit outside their normal bookings, and they've always gone over and above to look after us and make sure our event runs smoothly. Thanks to the whole team for making us feel so welcome :)

Mixed emotions about this place to be honest, on the one hand, me and a couple of gym bros broke the world record for number of baby Guinness in a night here (120), the beef nachos are sound as is the sharing combo, although I don't share. The one caveat however would be the miserable barman with long hair who is like a rain cloud hanging over the place.

I always try and come here to watch sports, whether it’s the football boxing or UFC they always have a great atmosphere. With great priced beers and even better wings and burgers. My go to for watching any event with all my mates

Very disappointed with the food. Service was ok a part from when the chef laughed when we complained about the stale bread. Perhaps because it was the least to complain about.

Went on a Saturday night. It was good. Did not eat there. Just drank a few.

Great evening. The staff were really friendly and the DJ that came on later in the evening was playing some excellent tunes. Great place to eat, socialise and dance 😎

Good place to watch the game, have some food and drink a decent pint 👍

i had an awesome lunch here the other day. i got the smothered chicken burger which i will definitely be coming back for. drinks are really well done too, everything is really well prepared. i was talking to a beautiful young lady, mackenzie, she really went above my expectations. thank you for a brilliant experience.

The food was first class but very disappointed that we had to wait over 30 minutes for one dessert of ice cream. This was a Monday lunchtime and was not at all busy.

Popped in for lunch, what a great place. Lovely staff and great food , even got to watch some football

As per a previous customer, televisions everywhere but nobody watching them. Nice place and varied menu. Also any bar with doombar is a hit for me. Food and drink possibly a bit pricey but to be expected for Harpenden. Bit nearer to London than Luton. Staff exceptional.

Went for breakfast want too bad under 10 pounds

Popped in on a Saturday afternoon, made to feel very welcome. Great selection of beers. Good service.

Great day there on Saturday. Great choice of beers, great service and food. Already planning to go back again. Thanks Andy and Team

Had an excellent lunch here the food was fantastic value really big portions and cooked perfectly. Clean tidy venue the staff all super busy and attentive. Loved the booths showing live sports Will definitely be back soon !

Popped in Today Had some Food Lovely welcome & Nice Lunch

Went in for a cocktail on Saturday- guy behind the bar was so miserable and for over £11 for a cocktail was awful !! Would not recommend for cocktails

We had a lovely afternoon with food and drinks. The service was great with friendly staff which is always a bonus! It had a real good atmosphere. We are looking forward to returning with the up coming events especially the DJ nights!

I went in to have a coffee after shopping in the town. The staff were really friendly and helpful. There were quite a few people in there and it was a nice relaxing atmosphere. Would recommend people give it a go. It’s classed as a sports bar but unlike some establishments of the same genre it was a really pleasant visit.

Had a meal and a couple of drinks here about a month ago, Fantastic food and all staff were very friendly. Was great to sit and have a meal and watch a bit of cricket too.

Been for a meal several times, food is good, place is clean, service always friendly. Good value for money.

Welcoming, friendly and efficient service. Good food at reasonable prices

Amazing food, great service. Will definitely be back soon. Thank you!

Great service from Andrew the GM. Very friendly and welcoming. Great pint of Guinness too

Pub au top, avons pu regarder un match de foot. Bonne expérience

Quiet food good, served quickly, reasonably priced

2nd visit much better experience. Quiet Sunday afternoon. Clean, tidy. Regulars watching football. All fine. Decent pint of black sheep too

One of many pubs in Harpenden....all your usual suspects served in draught & bottles

This used to be my favourite sports bar in Harpenden but I fear it’s on a downward slide since Bryan (manager) has left. Bryan ran a great bar with prompt service and a great pint and had all the staff trained to understand this philosophy. Last night I braved the wet weather to go and meet a few friends and watch the football - I shouldn’t have bothered. There was no more than one bar staff serving at any given time, resulting in our party waiting 10 minutes for every drink. We would have had at least one more round if the service had been good. If this poor service continues, I believe it will lose many customers

Only bar left open on a Tuesday night. They'd started to clear up so the bar stank of bleach but the staff still served us. Why do places say they close at 11pm and then start to close at 10.20pm?! Well done to the member of staff who served us, it was his first shift!

Cool bar for sport - although newer/larger tvs in the booth's would be better and the sound turned up to make the atmosphere better. Food is decent enough for a quick bite with a beer or 10 😃. Will keep coming back - and hope it goes from strength to strength 💪🏻 😃.

Great place to watch the Grand National, and any sporting event for that matter

The food and service are good, lots of screens if you’re interested in watching sports

Stayed down here for the weekend and was looking for somewhere to catch the lunchtime football - absolutely fantastic place and they allowed me to book a booth with a TV in it , in advance ! Very good selection of lagers and ales , shame it’s not my local as would be back there regularly !

Modern gastro/sports open plan bar...with booth seating & TV in ya face...Good choice of beers + the usual suspects...bright & airy ...loud & lairy on a Saturday nite 🫡

Beer was OK, but the food was awful, really wouldn't recommend. It's similar to a whetherspoons.

Brilliant. Lovely friendly staff & so clean. First thing I noticed was refreshing smell of bleach. Food excellent. Relaxed atmosphere. All round great

Good food, refreshing beer, great vibe.

Thoroughly enjoyed the snacks and the coffee

Great pub great beer .Sad to hear Bryan is leaving….

Good service from the whole team. Great place to visit

Brilliant place with great service

Great atmosphere and lovely food with a group of friends. Fantastic cocktails. Will recommend to friends.

Super place with a super landlord Brian
