The Boot - St Albans

2026-02-09

Address: Market Pl, St Albans AL3 5DG

Pouring from: 8 casks and maybe 6 kegs

We drank: Side Pocket for a Toad, Herding Cats by Fell Brewery

The lowest ceilinged pub we've been in in a long time. Literally couldn't stand up straight. Added to the vibe though.

A bit of a music theme throughout with pictures of Leonard Cohen, Johnny Cash etc. music seemed alright too (no Fleetwood Mac while we were here!). Wasn't a huge fan of the Guinness and Jaeger neon signs or huge TVs. Didn't feel overly in keeping with the rest.

Great beer selection, but TBW wasn't overly fussed over mine or hers. £10.30 for 2 pints is pretty decent!
