About us
Welcome to St Albans Pub Goers!
Our group will be indulging in the best, no nonsense pubs, etc St Albans has to offer. It's for friendly people who want to get together and socialise over a drink in a decent pub.
Where will we go?
Our pubs of choice will:
> * be places with a bit of character, history and interest in them.
> * Be quiet enough we can actually hear each other talk (unless we're going for pub band, in which case all bets are off).
> * Actually, we do bands
> * Have a respectable range of drinks – so at aminimum that's proper beer, interesting wines & ciders. But if soft drinks are your thing then that's OK too.
In general, we will avoid:
> * Pubs/Bars with TVs (though turned off is acceptable)
So, to give you a feel, some of the ones I'm thinking of for starters (not a full list):
> * Farmers Boy
> * Lower Red Lion
> * White Hart Tap
> * White Lion
> * Six Bells
> * Robin Hood
> * Garibaldi
> * The Boot
> * Mad Squirrels
What sort of people should come?
- Everyone!
St Albans Pub Goers are friendly people that are happy to chat about anything and everything. I'll always endeavour to make sure new (and nearly new) attendees get introduced to people – so, please make everyone welcome and don’t be afraid to start randomly chatting to stranger (and be ready for people to do that to you too )
Any rules?
Due to the nature of some of the pubs (i.e. relatively small) I will sometimes limit numbers for a given event. Sorry about that. Obviously, these are public houses, so, that doesn’t actually stop anyone from turning up. However, I want to make sure the landlords/ladies are happy to see us and that we don’t crowd out everyone else in the pub (or, indeed, ourselves). So, please bear that in mind.
Also, with groups of medium numbers it's more important that your RSVPs are accurate. So, please:
- Only RSVP "Yes", if you intend to come (i.e. not waiting for a 'better offer')
Should your plans change (which is fine) please update you're RSVP as soon as possible so someone else gets chance to attend.
Cheers
Pete

Pub Goers - Farmers Boy - The Beatniks
The Farmers Boy, 134 London Road, St Albans, AL1 1PQ, St Albans, GBHi Pub Goers!
Back to The Farmer's Boy. For a Sat afternoon this time.
The band is The Beatniks (https://www.lemonrock.com/beatniks) (60s / 70s covers, Duo)Lemonrock has this to say: "The Beatniks are Den Pugsley and Jamie Cook from The Overtures who specialise in the music of the 60's including great artistes such as The Beatles, Stones, Kinks, Who, Hollies and Simon and Garfunkel."https://www.lemonrock.com/beatniks
I've seen them before - We like them!.
They are on at 2.30pm (so, we start at 2pm to give time for chatting beforehand)
Be warned: I've booked some tablespace but it'll only hold about 8 people. After that it's snaffling other seats/standing or going inside. So, turn up early to have the best chance of getting a seat.
The Farmers Boy (http://www.farmersboy.info) is what I consider to be a 'no nonsense pub' with a surprisingly large range of drinks for a relatively small pub, serves proper cider. Also good wine, shorts, etc.
I'll be wearing an easily identifiable T-Shirt as per the photo section for this event
