About This Pub

Ah, The Badger in Watford is one of those pubs that just warms your heart from the moment you step in – it's got that genuine, homely feel that's hard to beat. From the reviews I've seen, people absolutely love the buzzing atmosphere, particularly during football matches or darts nights, where it turns into a lively hub of excitement. The staff really shine through, always going the extra mile to make sure you're well looked after, and they've got a solid lineup of beers that hit the spot. That outdoor area is a nice touch too, especially on a sunny afternoon. On the flip side, though, their website's playing up, which means you might have to pop in or call to sort out any plans, and as a smaller local venue, it doesn't quite match the variety you'd find in some flashier spots. All in all, it's a reliable choice for a good time without the pretence, and with a solid 4.4 rating, it's clear it's winning folks over – I'd say give it a go if you're after a straightforward, enjoyable night out.

A hidden gem especially when the footballs on. Great service great atmosphere and they just really look after everyone as if they family. It’s my local I’m biased but hey it’s a great pub. Not many good ones in watford these days

Tuesday 3rd September 2024. 21.28pm. Dear Sir/Madam. Good-evening. how are you? i trust you are well and good. I understand the wonderful Anthony Joshua drinks at the Badger Pub. I would like to meet him for his autograph. When does he visit? Is it a spacious pub? I will be coming from hounslow so I hope to enjoy the ambience. Yours Respectfully. The Bull Of lewisham.
