One of the oldest pubs in St Albans, the White Hart Tap is situated a short walk from the town centre and ten minutes from St Albans mainline station.
We are a friendly local pub which attracts an eclectic mix of people creating a pleasant and fun atmosphere.
In summer the large garden has plenty of space & tables to enjoy a meal from the lunchtime or evening menu.
In the winter the woodburning fire creates a warm and cosy place to enjoy a glass of mulled wine together with the pub cat Paddy who can be seen stretched out in front of it.

I've never experienced such a bad atmosphere in a pub! Everyone in there was so rude to us, including one of the bar staff. I have a feeling it's a regulars pub and new people aren't welcome. In the 4 hours we were in there we had bad interactions with 5 different people. Might sound like we were the problem, but we can't think of anything we would have done, and we've never had this kind of treatment in a pub before. Would suggest avoiding unless you're planning to be a regular. Real shame as the food was good and the building has a nice feel to it
Extremely rude female behind the bar. I came in and was ignored by staff, a female approached the bar and said 'Can I help' in a rude way. I said 'I just have a question' and the female says 'I will serve other people first then'. After waiting for other people at the bar to be served, another female approaches and said 'Can I help?' I asked 'What time are children allowed in till?' The other female goes back to the rude female and returned saying 'Technically it's 9pm but I am not allowing children in'. After spending all of 2 minutes in the bar area I could see that the pub was dirty and smelt of toilets, not a place I would want to bring my child!
The entrance might be a bit tricky for some to navigate with the steps but the service inside is fast and welcoming. There’s a small number of tables out the front which are a real sun trap and despite being next to the road are relaxing. Decent pub and one worth popping into if you’re in the area.
Great late Sunday roast , nice service , good size portions of roast beef , tasty fruit crumble
Madge took us off the main road and it felt like we had entered a country village. Lovely pub, beer garden and friendly locals vibe. Found a new brewery as well. Burnt Mill brewey..fine pint in the trendy unfined cloudy variety. ( I prefer clear to soup!) Great find and there are more pubs to find on a future visit to this part of town.

Hidden away in the back streets of St Albans, you'll find The Garibaldi - a pub that transports guests back to the Victorian era. Think nooks, crannies and cosy corners, a roaring real fire and a great pint of real ale - plus the lost commodity of good Ol
