About This Pub
You know, when I think about The Albert Inn, it just brings a smile to my face – it's one of those pubs that gets it right without trying too hard. The food is a real highlight; imagine tucking into a proper Sunday roast or some fish and chips that's cooked to perfection, all at prices that won't leave you feeling short-changed. The staff are brilliant, always on hand with a cheery word and making sure everything runs smoothly, which really adds to that cosy, welcoming feel. It's spot on for a laid-back evening or a quick meal, and being so close to the station means it's easy to nip in. That said, if you're keen on starting your day with a pint, you might find the later openings on some weekdays a bit of a nuisance, and the website doesn't give much away, so it's worth checking ahead. All in all, it's a solid choice for anyone looking for a good time without the fuss – I'd say give it a go and see for yourself.

A very enjoyable Sunday lunch at The Albert today, a lovely welcome as we walked in, our food (roast chicken) was delicious and didn’t take long to arrive even though it was quite busy in there. The young lady and gentleman behind the bar were absolutely brilliant, so professional, friendly and attentive, what a great asset to an already delightful pub. Thank you for a lovely relaxing afternoon, we’ll look forward to our next visit.
What a lovely place to eat . My partner had the Sunday roast and I had the fish and chips. Omg it was delicious and we will definitely be back. The guy and girl behind the bar were so attentive and we certainly couldn’t have ask for more. The atmosphere was so relaxing and I can’t wait to go back and try some other craft beers . Such a refreshing change to run of the mill pubs .
