About This Pub

Ah, Slug & Lettuce in St Albans – what a gem for those evenings when you're after a bit of fun and a well-made cocktail. I've got to say, the staff really stand out; they're so helpful and energetic, like that server who went above and beyond for a bottomless brunch or the one who nailed the afternoon tea service. It's all about those little touches that make you feel right at home. The deals are brilliant too – think 2-for-1 cocktails or kids eating for a quid, which is ace if you're planning a casual get-together. The place has a welcoming vibe with outdoor areas and it's generally dog-friendly, so you can pop in with your furry friend on a sunny day. On the flip side, it's worth noting the age restrictions on weekends, which might not suit everyone, especially if you've got little ones in tow or fancy a more relaxed family outing. And while it's mostly spot-on, there might be times when the music could be a bit louder to really get the party going. Overall, it's a solid choice for a good laugh and some tasty bites, but just keep those policies in mind for the best experience.

Pros and Cons

Pros
  • The staff are absolutely brilliant – they're so attentive and make every visit feel special, like chatting with old mates over a drink.
  • They've got a cracking selection of cocktails and deals, such as 2-for-1 offers and bottomless brunches that really get the good times flowing.
  • The atmosphere is spot on for a fun night out, with outdoor seating, a beer garden, and even being dog-friendly on most days, making it welcoming for all sorts.
  • Prices are reasonable for what you get, and the food like afternoon teas and picky bits is tasty and hits the spot without breaking the bank.
Cons
  • There are a few restrictions, like no kids after 7pm on Fridays and Saturdays, and over 21s from 8pm, which might put off families or groups with younger ones.
  • Occasionally, little things like the music not being loud enough during events can dampen the vibe a tad, as mentioned in some feedback.

Katie was an amazing and brilliant server! She made our experience so much more enjoyable. We had the bottomless brunch, Katie even wrote down all of my friends gluten free options. She was so lovely! Will deffo be coming again.

Brilliant all you can drink ABBA brunch. Our hostess Abby (as seen in photos) was excellent. Apparently Abby does a mobile cocktail service, which I would imagine would be worth hiring from our service at the Slug and Lettuce. The only minor criticism is the ABBA music needed to be a bit louder, it got drowned out by the party at the end of the room.
