A lovely little lively restaurant that I visited when on a date. The server who served us could only be described as sweet and professional. I have noticed the menu was a little bit limited, Pizzas only but I'm not sure if we got the right menu or not. Either way we enjoyed two wonderful pizzas and some cocktails/mocktails that were going at a one for two deal. They were amazing.

This is our second time visiting the Beech House. They have lovely vegan options. Jack was very kind and friendly with my questions about vegan and non vegan recommendations. We’ll try the sticky pudding during our next visit!

I’ve been to the Beech House many times and always thought the service and food were great. I had an exceptional experience today though. My young son and I went for lunch, which is tricky as he has a food allergy and is still quite young for a lot of food options. The staff were so accommodating though, and happily made him a pizza he could eat with no risk. He absolutely loved it! The service was very quick too, which is a huge deal when you have a little one, likely to get bored any minute! Thank you team! We’ll come back again, when it gets too lonely at home!

Absolutely LOVE the Beech House! We've been using their venue for St Albans Buzz Networking, monthly event, for over 10 years now! I've been involved for the last 5, and it makes such a difference to have a responsive venue and staff that care. The team are always helpful and take a genuine interest in you. Well, they have with me! I'm there at least once a week–outside my monthly networking event, so have had most things on the menu. Particular favourites are the delicious Pollo Diavola pizza, and the Buttermilk pancakes with bacon. Mmmm... We have our Christmas Meal there soon. Can't wait! If you need a venue to grab a quick coffee, for a meal or larger event, I highly recommend you get in touch with the Beech House, St Albans.

Love it here! Such an amazing chilled atmosphere - it feels like a private members club. Lovely Aperol spritz and pizza, amazing waitress (brunette lady who moved all our things inside when the weather worsened!) and a great atmosphere.

I went to Beech House St.Alban many times. Love this restaurant. Steak is very good. Pizza is better. I will come back for sure. But many time that I went, its fully booked. Good for restaurant, but poor me. BTW I still love this.
