fantastic pub. in a beautiful location with quieter view and a beautiful garden with many different areas to relax. the interior is welcoming and very well furnished. hunde bowls and water provided. the staff is excellent and very friendly, and there is a good choice of beer. we had the broken cod and chips that took up outside the kitchen hours and it was nicely cooked, the chips were particularly good, with a beaut...

Really nice country pub, food is really really good, particularly beef I’ve had twice. Service can be a bit slow and confusing where you order drinks from, either the bar or waiter. But overall do love it here. Well done.
read moreBest roast in St Albans! This was our first visit since the new owners took over and wow it was fantastic! We both had the beef which was beautifully rare and there were generous portions of roast potatoes and a selection of veg. We shared the chocolate bar for pudding with the jaffa cake ice cream. Yum! We'll definitely be back soon!
read moreReally lovely experience for Sunday lunch, portions are decent size and well made, on the more expensive side for a pub lunch but quality is high. Was £200 bill for 4 adults for lunch, dessert and soft drinks each and tip included. No wine only 1 beer. Staff were lovely, pub itself is a decent size and there is a large outdoor seating space too. Parking can get busy.

We had been for a drink a couple of times breaking off a cycle along the nearby Alban Way. But today we decided to go for it despite the apparently high prices. Sometimes you get what you pay for, other times you get ripped off. The Plough is worth ever penny. We had starters and main from the Sunday lunch menu. There wasn't a single element that was cooked anything but less than perfection and the flavours were the best tasting (insert name of item here) you have ever had. The service was relaxed but, despite a full restaurant, prompt and always friendly. The wine list is surprisingly good value, if the standard mark up is 4x retail then I need to know where they get such good organic Montepulciano from at that price. The beers and cider choice is excellent and what comes out of the taps is in top condition. No complaints, total satisfaction and finishing the wine in the garden enjoying the remains of the day was heaven. As I took the glasses back the smell of liqueur coffee almost tempted me back in for more but it was closing time. Superb.
read moreFantastic gastropub our favourite in the St Albans region. Creative menus with fresh ingredients, well executed and with a good selection of plates. Attentive staff and quick service. Beautiful traditional pub setting inside or a moderately sized rear garden overlooking Hertfordshire fields. Certainly worth a try!
