The Plough in Saint Albans

Ah, The Plough in St Albans – it's one of those pubs that just draws you in with its charming, old-school feel, like a favourite local haunt you'd chat about over a round. From what I've gathered from the reviews, most folks absolutely love the place; it's got that welcoming service that makes you feel like you're catching up with mates, and the beers are always spot on, well-kept and refreshing. The food often steals the show too, with stories of exceptional starters and brilliant meals for big groups, perfect for a family get-together or a casual bite. But, to keep it real, there was that one off review where the burger fell flat – something about it being a bit underwhelming with overly sharp sauces and chips that tasted off – so it might not be the go-to for everyone if you're after a flawless meal. Still, with such a strong overall vibe and high marks from the crowd, I'd say it's well worth a visit for a relaxed evening; just go in with an open mind and maybe stick to the crowd-pleasers.
