Popped in for a pre Sunday lunch drink and ended up staying the afternoon. The menu is wide and there is something to suit everyone. We were lucky and managed to get a couple of comfy armchairs before the Sunday lunch brigade arrived and in no time it was heaving. Although we only had a sandwich each as we had... More

We live locally and always find ourselves eating out in the Lakes with our family on our day off. We decided to try The Albert after a recommendation, and we were impressed. The place is clean and inviting we had 2 children under 10 with us and they had Childrens meals. The Chicken Nuggets were Homemade Chicken breast in batter.... More

I have to admit that, from the outside, my first impression was that the Albert looked a little drab and uninviting. But I was entirely wrong - once inside, it's stylish but very cosy. The fact that this pub is popular with locals and visitors alike should be a good enough recommendation; while the friendly bar staff may greet the... More

Called in for a drink on Monday evening...stayed all night. Food we had was lovely only had a starter but good sized portion left me full. With the evening ahead and no plans we decided to stay for the bingo. Glad we did as we won!!! Friendly staff and locals made for a great night. Thanks.

Visited The Albert for lunch on a Monday. Very nice and clean. Staff were friendly and attentive. The service was quick considering they were busy at the time and the good was delicious. High chairs were supplied for my twins which may sound strange but 3 places we went in prior to The Albert in the nearby area all advertised... More

We popped in The Albert early evening for a couple of drinks and decided to try the food having liked the look and feel of the place. Really enjoyed our meal, good value and very tasty. Friendly staff. Drinks a bit pricey but would recommend and will definitely be paying another visit.

Popped in here a couple of times whilst in Bowness for drinks and the atmosphere was lovely and staff and locals very friendly. Food looked good and later on the entertainment was good fun.

Stopped off here for a spot of lunch and I am glad we did! The food is fantastic for a pub and great value. (£8 for a Sunday roast with all the trimmings) Even when they were busy the food was out to tables promptly and the service from the friendly staff was excellent. Definitely worth pulling in for a...
