Blue Scrumpy left this review about The Boot

Situated in a prominent corner location in the centre of St Albans, it's been almost 14 years since I was last in the Boot. I seem to recall a fairly quiet pub and wondered how it survived. This time, we found a pub that was much busier than any of the other St Albans pubs we'd tried, with the exception of the Waterend Barn.

With no tables available, we opted to stand next to the central bar. The interior is fairly traditional but with a few modern touches spoiling it slightly. Harvey's Sussex Best Bitter & Timothy Taylor Landlord are the regular beers. Guests were Oakham Citra, Adnams Broadside, Tring Side Pocket For A Toad & Pomona Island Pompatus. The ciders were Weston's Old Rosie & Thatcher's Stan's Big Apple.

Visited this pub while on a CAMRA coach trip in the area. Had difficulty finding it due to the take down of the Saturday market and locals sending us first way up the street, then back down it to find the pub, so not a lot of time to explore round it. We chose Mad Squirrel Berkhopsted and the beer was fine.

Busy old pub in central St Albans. Very traditional.
