The Speckled Hen - St Albans

I can highly recommend The Speckled Hen as an excellent traditional pub that also serves great food. The staff were efficient and friendly and made us feel very welcome. We were served by Tina who went out of her way to make sure that we enjoyed our visit. We will definitely be visiting this pub again.

We came for dinner but stayed for the quiz. Tina expertly handled us and ensured we left satisfied. The food was great and the quiz was very enjoyable.

Been going here for years. Superb pub run by great team. Great selection of beers and a music quiz on thursday that has been going for 17+ years.

Staff were brilliant food wonderful a fantastic experience!! Great menu can’t wait to come back! Thank you

Considering this pub is just a few miles from my home, I've never used it as I don't drink alcohol so never quite seen the point, however, this all changed last week when my son moved home and the pub has ended up between our houses and after a long day of painting and drilling, 5 of us ended up in this pub starving hungry. one of the party was an 11 Yr old Autistic girl and the staff were so accommodating when it came to separating her food groups on her plate. The food, which I might add were all different meals, was some of the best foods we have ever eaten out. Even our Autistic child was happy with the food she was served and this RARELY happens in her world. We went back yesterday for a roast after a busy day at church and home and once again, the food was superb.. I had the lamb shank and at 51 yrs old, I can honestly say, never have I eaten lamb so succulently cooked, it literally just melted on my tounges. Once again, the staff were amazingly friendly and couldn't do enough to check you were happy with your whole experience. Thank you guys, you are now our go to food outlet x
