PUBS-The Artichoke, Watford,England
Created | Updated Jan 23, 2013
The Artichoke, Watford High Street is situated at the top of the high street just beside the pond. Its also opposite the night club 'Destiny' which makes it an ideal pre-clubbing waterhole. Its a nice pub to drink in as it is a proper english pub (the only one left in the high street, as the others are all comercial chains), it has a pool table, and a jukebox which insists on playing white swans at least twice an hour.
The barman looks like meatloaf and plays nomination wist constantly, don't expect service while hes playing. Your best bet is to challenge him to a game on the condition he serves you if you win, you won't but its worth a go. Weekdays the bar is always crammed with punters doing crosswords, or more to the point, not managing to do the crossword. However don't try and help, they'll have your liver before you've had time to read on clue.
Quiz night is monday night, and if you win you are in for both cash and beer prises. mondays to thursdays after three drinks are ridiculously cheep which is always a plus.
however on a serious note you wont find a friendlier pub in watford town center.......oh and they have new Fosters Amber and blue WKD....which no one else in watford serves yet...
