The Hub on Verulam is quietly becoming one of the most interesting places to spend a day in St Albans. Part brunch spot, part members club, part community living room, it’s a multi-use social space where brunch turns into lunch, and lunch effortlessly drifts into VESPER, their dark & moody evening restaurant. Workshops, events, and evening cinema screenings happen daily, adding to the buzz of this central St Albans spot.
Step inside and the atmosphere feels instantly familiar: relaxed, welcoming, and thoughtfully designed. There’s a Soho House-like energy to the space, not exclusive, but curated. Comfortable seating, warm lighting, and a hum of conversation make it equally suited to solo work sessions, casual meet-ups, or lingering over coffee with friends.
By day, The Hub on Verulam serves a well-considered brunch and lunch menu, with dishes that feel fresh, seasonal, and made to be enjoyed slowly. It’s the kind of place where you come for a quick bite and end up staying longer than planned. Members enjoy a laptops open policy, with notebooks out and conversations flowing freely, it’s a space that encourages people to settle in. But what really sets The Hub on Verulam apart is what happens beyond. Regular workshops, community events and intimate cinema screenings transform the venue into a cultural touchpoint for the area. One evening you might find a creative writing class; the next, a small group gathered for an independent film screening. Bookended by a delicious dinner at VESPER.
The Hub on Verulam isn’t just somewhere to eat or drink. It’s somewhere to spend time, meet people, learn something new and feel part of a growing creative community in the heart of St Albans.
