The Load of Hay is a Watford Jewel that has become a second home for me and my partner since we moved to the area. The atmosphere, the customers, the staff and especially the landlady Julie are what makes this pub an absolute joy and treasure in the local area.Supporting your local businesses are important, and the Load of Hay is the family pub that will always look after you. So many fun events to attend including Karaoke night and Blankety Snatch. If you haven't been to the Hay yet, then make sure you put it on your radar when you're next in the area and say hello to everyone!

Not the same "Vibe" I experienced the last time I visited, way black in 2013. The the place rocked. It was very "quiet" the live music was great , but overpoweringly loud for a smallish bar area , and you really struggled to hear someone speak to you! Not really any "Gay People there either! The Staff were lovely, engaging and warm. Will give it another chance possiblly a Saturday to see if it's different then , and hopefully better than Friday Night experience.
