The King Harry

You'll find The King Harry tucked away on King Harry Lane, that sweet spot between the cathedral quarter's tourist traffic and the quieter residential streets heading towards Sopwell. It's the kind of place where regulars actually sit at the bar—no standing awkwardly with a pint while checking your phone. The pub does what a proper pub should: serves decent ales you won't find everywhere, feeds you without pretension, and feels like it belongs to St Albans rather than to some chain's spreadsheet. Expect wood, comfort, and the sort of menu that understands what people actually want to eat with their drink.
