    The Albion has been our local for 20 years and its a very popular pub, especially in summer with lovely outside spaces. The food goes up and down but is in an up phase at the moment with some elevated options. The service is currently in a very good phase. The staff were all extremely professional, warm and polite. Mostly young women, bravo!! We had a funny issue with our table on arrival as The Albion is on multiple booking sites but the manager resolved the problem with class.
