Clay Oven
Tandoori breads, marinated platters, and spiced skewers fired the old way.
Our Story
A pub on the river, a kitchen from the mountains
The Green Dragon brings together the ease of an old St Albans public house and the depth, texture, and warmth of a modern Himalayan kitchen.
The Story
A familiar pub, worn in all the right ways
The Green Dragon has stood beside the River Ver on Waterside for generations - a weathered, friendly place where St Albans locals, walkers, and weekend diners have long found a warm fire and a proper pint. The building wears its history quietly; you can feel it in the low beams, the soft light near the river, and the view outside.
Today this familiar room moves in a new direction. Our kitchen is led by chefs from Nepal and India, bringing aromatic spice, thoughtful balance, and slow-cooked depth to every plate.
“Two traditions of hospitality, one riverside table.”
Real Nepal
Hand-folded momos, house chutney, and Himalayan warmth in every plate.
Pub at Heart
A lively pub list with craft pours and easy comfort by the river.
Make an Evening of It
See the pub, stay for the kitchen
Whether you arrive for a quiet pint, a long lunch, or full riverside dinner, The Green Dragon is built for warm service and food worth coming back for.
