Description
An all day café and restaurant in the heart of St. Albans. Megan's is housed in a charming old pub and promises the same gorgeous interiors, all day dining with a Mediterranean twist and fun bottomless brunches on weekends & bank holidays.
Also just launched is Megan's new Kebab Nights, offering one of their most-loved dishes for just £12 every Monday and Tuesday from 5pm. The hand-stretched flatbreads—sourced from a local independent baker—are topped with smooth harissa hummus, crunchy slaw, and homemade pickles, delivering a fresh, flavour-packed experience. Guests can choose from chargrilled chicken thigh, grilled halloumi with pomegranate, crispy falafel, or their signature favourite: overnight braised lamb with feta and pistachios.
This Megan's restaurant has a very versatile space. You can hire this gorgeous location for a party where you have space for a DJ, photo booth & even a dance floor.
This spot is a dog friendly/work friendly environment, so if it's not a party you are looking for, bring your furry friends or laptops along & plot up for the day.
