Nine pubs in an around Watford have been named in CAMRA’s Good Beer Guide for 2024.

The guide is made up of a range of pubs that have impressed volunteers after they have visited each venue and tasted all the beers on offer.

Volunteers then rate the pubs based on their quality of beer, atmosphere, location and ability to accommodate real ale drinkers. 

Across Hertfordshire, there was a wide range of worthy pubs named, however, we've picked out just a few local pubs that made the list. 

If you want to see the guide in full, you can buy a copy via the website.
