Toast in St Albans

Lovely breakfast but rather pricey . The chap serving us did seem to rather obviously try to up sale us, hubby says black pudding should already be in a breakfast not £1.50 extra. The very loud music would put us off going again, seemed odd at that time in the morning.

Best breakfast in St Albans. We’ve been a few times and tried a few different breakfast options. Consistently great food and friendly service.

Recently visited for an early lunch with my wife and our one year old and was seriously impressed. Friendly staff, excellent portion sizes, great food and a Bloody Mary to top it off! Definitely returning and have already chosen what I'm going to have!

Have seen this place for ages but never been as they don’t take bookings. When I saw they were taking bookings for Mother’s Day I jumped at the chance to go! All the staff were super friendly & all the food was yummy - particular highlight was the apple crumble french toast!

Amazing Breakfast…the biggest slices of toast you have ever seen. Clean plates and full bellies! Service was great and such a nice feel about the restaurant

This is by far the best place for breakfast/brunch in St Albans. As well as the traditional full English, there are many other offerings, with good coffee, and cocktails available.

Went for our first visit here today. Got here around 11am on a Sunday and it was packed, always a good sign! Waited around 10 mins to be seated but all worth the wait as the food was exceptional and the quality of the ingredients used was obvious. Don’t miss the chorizo eggs or the bubble & squeak! Great service and attention throughout.

My family and I always get a great experience when we visit Toast. Liam and the team are warm, welcoming and attentive. It's great to visit a place where the staff acknowledge that you are giving them repeat business. The service is great and the food is lovely. A very good menu. The environment is cosy but this place is understandably very popular that selfishly, I wish they could expand. Many thanks to Liam and team! Well done! I definitely recommend Toast!

Consistently good - have been here 10 plus times and it’s always been spot on. Great food, great service and great atmosphere!

What a great concept! We went for my mum’s birthday as when fancied something a bit different. The food & service by Liam was amazing, he made us feel like nothing was too much trouble. I’m not a huge egg fan, but omg the eggs were so good!! I had the full English, it was so filling. Already planning another visit but this time to try a sweet dish. This place so worth a visit. Thank you again

Wonderful Birthday brunch at Toast. Liam and his team looked after us superbly. Friendly and attentive service to accompany some very tasty food - thoroughly recommend the Full English, the Croque and the Bacon Chop. (accompanied by the Punchin' Bellini)...

First visit and very pleasantly surprised. Good service and excellent food from a quirky set of menu choices. Would definitely visit again.

Loved this restaurant. The food is exceptionally good ,well priced and the staff couldn't be more helpful. I loved that you can see the whole kitchen which is spotless ! A huge plus in my book. In what to order I was truly spoilt for choice !!! I don't live in the area and wish I lived next door ! Great atmosphere,great staff and exceptional food .......... What more could you ask for ? 5 stars all round !!

Toast is so much more than your average brunch spot, the food is off the scale in taste and presentation… Liam the owner has consistently won awards in every venue he has managed and do now he can bring all that experience and success to his own business .. the energy he and his team deliver is a genuine joy to experience 🤩

I would definitely recommend Toast! I thought the food might be style over substance but I was proven wrong! Amazing quality food, utterly delicious and very filling! The service was so friendly and there is such an inviting, warm atmosphere. I will certainly be back again soon!

Amazing in every way. Food, service, smiles. Buzzy atmosphere and a fantastic host, Liam. 6 stars ⭐️

First visit to Toast , I had the Mushrooms on sourdough topped with a poached egg which was delicious and there was plenty of it , my husband had the full English and was impressed. Excellent service from friendly staff . I would say price...

A gem. A local, independent, efficient restaurant serving a great menu. Good portion size and freshly made dishes using quality ingredients. The place was buzzing on a Monday. I suspect they are thriving on word of mouth recommendations as passing trade will be limited. They...

Came to this lovely place for lunch with friends. Were met by Liam who seated us very swiftly. The service was just spot on and the food we had couldn’t be faulted. The espresso even came with a glass of water as it should! Looking...

This place is a whole vibe!! It's simple, non-exhaustive menu was easy to navigate. Making it incredibly easy to pick what I wanted. I had the avo on toast, which was divine. Loved it, my friend had the crunchy nut on toast, which was also...

I visited this establishment back in May with my dad and we had the 'bubble & squeak' dish. Absolutely loved it. Came back today with my friend and I decided to have a sweet dish the 'crunchy nut'. It was delicious, especially as the brioche...

Always such a treat to visit Toast! Delicious food, great menu and always excellent service and a warm welcome. Very family friendly but nice to visit without children too!

This is my second time at Toast and I absolutely love it—the food, vibe, people, price, and service—all amazing. Would highly recommend the Crunchy Nut if you’re craving for something sweet and for savoury, try the hash brown and Bubble & Squeak. p/s: expect a...

The food is delicious and the staff are incredibly friendly and hospitable. There is a really lovely vibe to the place. We’ll definitely come again!

Excellent! We were in St Albans for an overnight stay and whilst wandering around we came around a sign for this place out on the road. My brief to my husband for the kind of breakfast I wanted was 'something on sourdough ' ....this hit...

Private event. Booked for a work party of 15. Food was incredible, service & atmosphere was all fabulous. we had ordered canapés and light bites, and the whole group was amazed how full we were after. We had a selection of savoury bites - my...

Really welcoming, relaxed place for a delicious coffee or brunch. We both had bubble and squeak and loved it. Highly recommended. Friendly, professional, modern. Spot on

The food here is amazing. There’s never anything that I’ve had on menu that I wouldn’t have again. It’s always busy at weekends, but I’ve never seen anyone wait more than 10 minutes to be seated. The staff are also very friendly and welcoming.

I went here for the first time with my husband and mother in law. We had the tastiest lunch- something for everyone. Service was prompt and friendly and they have clearly thought about the ingredients and flavour combinations. The coffee was excellent. We had a...

Great addition to St Albans. Great food, great staff / service and a good refurb of the building. I spend a lot of time in Melbourne - and the brunch is on par with there. Not sure I can say that about any other brunch...
