5 Best Beer Bars near St. Albans

“The Tap is great! We were here a few weeks ago and had a wonderful time. The manager is so nice and knowledgable. They have an excellent selection of WV craft beers & WV ciders. They also do cocktails, sangria, and have a good selection of bourbon. We have had a charcuterie board (very nice), their Buffalo Chicken dip (it’s delicious), and Potato Skins (tasty). They have burgers, bbq,, sandwiches, and some other appetizers on the menu. We are here tonight and they are having a costume party from 7:00 pm to 10:00 pm. Come on out to The Tap in downtown St. Albans.“

“I was amazed at the ice cold bar for your beverages. I’ve been around awhile, and I’ve never seen one. Really cool. The burger was good and they are very generous on the amazing bbq chips that come as a side. Sonja was very friendly and made me feel very comfortable. I’ll be back!“

“On 6/18/26 we had a large group so they put us in back room. Took our orders and obviously forgot about us. Finally after about an hour we went to bar to ask about our orders. When they finally brought it out it was ice cold. Will not be back.“

“The atmosphere is awesome and the fried pickles are even better. Trust me on this. Get the fried pickles. No where near as salty as all the other places.... and that goes for more than just the pickles. Attitude is everything and this crew is taking care of business.“

“I’ve been going into this location for several months in the morning. The young man with the salt and pepper hair is always so polite and nice. He makes my whole experience so much better. He remembers what I buy every morning and has it ready and waiting for me. Great customer service from this young man! I’ve had previous experiences at this location that were not so nice and stopped going for a long time. He makes my day a bit brighter. Kudos for such a pleasant person Cold Spot!“
