The Farmer's Boy

The Farmer’s Boy is a pub on London Road in St Albans with a proper local feel, where people come for pints, conversation and a mix of regulars and larger groups. Customers often mention the friendly bar staff, the traditional pub setting and the family-run feel, alongside a good choice of drinks. There’s also outdoor seating for warmer days, and dogs are welcome. It has a busy, social side to it too. Live music appears on the line-up, and live sport is shown, so it suits people who like a bit of atmosphere with their drink. The pub also takes bookings and is set up for groups, while the wheelchair access makes it more straightforward for a wider range of visitors. Delivery and takeaway are available as well, which adds another option if you’d rather enjoy it at home. For something to eat, customers have singled out changing food offerings on some nights, including jerk chicken and fresh pizza. That mix of pub drinks, live entertainment and more informal food service gives The Farmer’s Boy a broader appeal than a standard drink-only stop.
