The Farriers Arms is a traditional back street locals pub about 5 - 10 minutes walk from St Albans city centre.
It is owned by McMullens brewery and therefore serves AK, Country and the new McMullens Cask Ale on handpump.
The first branch meeting of the Campaign for Real Ale was held in the Farriers Arms.
Fairly small interior with outside toilets. TV showing sports events.
At the time of the review we found this to be a not very welcoming and a rather basic pub.

"The Farriers Arms, a nice, quiet, well-run, traditional English pub is the pub in which the local CAMRA branch was founded in 1972.
It is tucked away down Lower Dagnall Street, about 5/10 minuets walk from the town center, run by owner and landlord Tony and his wife Janine, with the help of full time barman Garry,
you will find perfectly kept McMullen’s ales on the hand pumps, and excellent bar food.
Fairly small inside you will find a warm welcome with open fires in both bars in the winter, the Farriers Arms is everything you could possibly ask of a traditional English pub.
If you are into sport then this is the place to enjoy a perfect pint whilst watching the rugby or cricket with the locals, I can thoroughly recommend it."
