Review
The Spotted Bull in St Albans is a large traditional pub. It has a good layout with bar at back and plenty of seating at the front.
At the time of the visit only Fullers London Pride was available on handpump which was served a little too cold. Green King IPA is also normally available as is draught Addlestones.
Only five minutes walk from the main city centre pubs but it seems that not many make the effort.
Food is served every lunchtime and all afternoon on Sundays.
The pub only had a couple of drinkers when reviewed, around 10pm on a Thursday. It's a shame as this is a good traditional pub.
It's an ideal place for a quiet drink and a chat away from the hustle and bustle of the pubs in the centre.

Update Aug 2008: Steaks now served from Tue to Sat evening, ranging from £10 to £16. Vegetarian options available.
