Bill's Restaurant Bar St Albans

A nice sit-down cafe with a friendly, inviting vibe to it. Lunchtime food was a fair price for the portion sizes and reasonably tasty. There are not many options outside of coffee shops around this area, so it's definitely a place to try for a relaxed meal.

Cozy place, cinnamon doughnuts were delicious, beer could be a good option for those who want to drink low-calorie alcohol

Good food and atmosphere. I had their vegan burger and a ginger beer, which were both very good. My 1 yo had a kids meal, but wasn't super keen on the grilled chicken strips. Should have ordered him the buttermilk fried instead

As a waiter myself, my friend and I wouldn't have minded if the restaurant had been busy and he was attending to the customers, but he often seemed to be standing around chatting with other staff or was nowhere in sight. He also came across as a bit indifferent and like he didn't want to be there at all. The service was disappointing for a place that wasn't particularly busy. That said, as with all Bill's, the food was wonderful. I had the duck salad and the truffle chicken, both were delicious and offered good value for money.

The restaurant has a delightful and laid-back ambiance, complemented by delicious food. The staff is also very welcoming.
