The Merchant Tea and Coffee Company



Previously part of the Australian chain, this now independent coffee shop is situated in the front of the Old Town Hall in the city centre. Serving a range of teas, coffee, cakes and snacks in a faux colonial style setting. Outdoor seating available.

St Albans Town Hall is one of the city's landmarks. Grade II listed and situated alongside the Market Place, it is at the centre of the city. Built in 1831, the venue presents an impressive Palladian façade, painted cream and decorated with a columned first storey balcony.
