About this Pub
Why it's great for Matchdays
On Watford High Street near Watford High Street station, The One Crown is a handy pre-match spot with sports screens showing live games—useful for early kick-offs. It’s around 0.8 miles from Vicarage Road, so fans can walk to the ground in 15–20 minutes. Town-centre location and football-friendly mentions make it a neutral meeting point rather than a designated home-only pub.

I had a really good time at The One Crown. The place has a great vibe — lively without feeling out of control, with a nice mix of people and a friendly atmosphere. It’s the kind of pub where you feel comfortable as soon as you walk in. The staff were welcoming and quick behind the bar, even when it was busy. Drinks were well poured and reasonably priced, and there’s a good selection to choose from. I also liked the character of the interior and the music — it all adds up to a proper night out without any fuss. Overall, it’s a solid, friendly pub and I’d happily come back again.
Popped in to watch the football while staying locally. Good beer, traditional pub atmosphere, big screen for the football with plenty of seating. Prices were reasonable and friendly locals.
Closed at 3 o'clock today. Waste of time going there. Used to be a nice quiet local. Went to Railway in Bushey in the end, at least it was open
As I walked in I was welcomed by a lovely man called Micheal made me feel welcome in this gorgeous pub he’s got a heart of gold. I came in on my own he still made me feel welcomed and not outnumbered and we had a very good chat and a great laugh I highly recommend the one crown
Nice relaxed old school pub with a few regulars and a companionable bartender. Highly recommended for a quiet drink with your mates.
