The Albion - Menu

I had a great lunch- pork chop (organic) with a baked pear, fantastic gravy...I would go there anytime.

A Georgian house, it's spacious and feels as if you're exploring a large abode as you walk through its chambers. There is a large enough outside area which in summer must be a treat to sit in

So what’s Islington’s iteration of the most overused pub name after the Dog Duck like? Let’s ask their website. “It’s a Georgian gem left over from a time when Islington was fields and farmland and where the regulars would take afternoon walks out of th

Having lived within a 5 minute walk of the Albion for over 6 months, we ate and drank there on more than a few occasions, but somehow the Sunday lunch there never came to pass. Either because we forgot to book, or we just turned up on the off chance that

a great local British pub! in every sense of the word. great large beer garden and even in the winter months can be full! great choice of beer and weeping. eating is great and delicious. good value. not really a tourist place that many like. if they buy a beer in the opposite, they will not be disappointed.

fantastic British cuisine. this place is fantastic if I could give him six stars, I would. I had the 30 days aged rib of longhorn beef (parts) it came with greens and carrots and was perfectly cooked. I think British eating gets a bad name, but this place breaks all the bad English eating. I will hopefully be back! They also have a really nice sitting area in the open on the back where we sat for our brunch.

classic pub food well executed. I love chips and their chips are on top of my chips list. three times boiled so crispy perhaps not for thetter, but it is worth it; I had roasted boar, beautiful portion not too big yet small. skin was crispy and meat not too faty simply perfect. had steak before that was nice, but could have been a bit bigger. overall a nice gastro-pub if they have a gast from the country, it is a nice place to take them to show British pub eating.

And the award for laziest blogger goes to….myself. I have posts ready to publish, however due to pure tiredness after work, all I can manage is dinner, a spot of TV, a quick check of emails, then bed. Repeat x 5 till the weekend when I can finally catch up on everything. It’s a little embarrassing it has taken me so long to write a post on The Albion, as I live so ridiculously close. We’re talking a 30-second walk. We don’t actually eat here too often to be honest, as on a Sunday afternoon, there’s nothing I like better than loading up a whole chicken with some butter and herbs and filling the house with that irresistible, unmistakable smell, but on those rare Sundays when Sainsbury’s closes...

Situated on a quiet leafy close in Barnsbury, The Albion is a fantastic pub a perfect spot for a drink (at one of the picnic tables out front, or in the expansive beer garden round the back , and an even better location for a super tasty Sunday roast. I first discovered The Albion when looking for somewhere canine friendly to eat with my parents, and their (cute but naughty dog...And in addition to the impressively laid back attitude of the staff (which they maintained even when the dog decided to sit on one of the stylishly upholstered sofas* , we were blown away by the fantastic food. I've had the pleasure of trying two of the roast options here: the whole roast chicken (supposedly to shar...
