    Sat outside. Unfortunately, the sun didn't reach us whilst we were there ( 1pm - 4pm), so something worth thinking about if you're wanting to bathe in sunshine. Apart from that, everything was spot on.

    Our reservation was for 6:30pm, and we did not get our meals until 8:15pm. It was a party of 7 and while not a small group, it was also not a large group. My steak and broccoli tasted like it was kept warm (barely) under a heat lamp. It wasn't fresh and lacked flavor. My colleagues also had varying experiences with the taste of their food. I understand that it was a bank holiday and the restaurant was understaffed but it was a poor experience. Unfortunately, the guests from my group are from the US and India so we won't have an opportunity to try this restaurant again.

    Overall a nice experience but wouldn’t recommend. Especially on a weekend. Maybe a weekday lunch would be better. We were a group of 10 and had a nice meal, of a good standard, we were asked to leave the table approx 2.5 hours after our booking time which is understandable on a busy Saturday night but we still had drinks and there is nowhere else to accommodate this. We ended up sitting outside on the terrace which had a very tense atmosphere with lots of young groups “hanging around” no purchasing drinks or food. Whilst sat outside we also noticed the table inside was never used for anyone else for the remainder of the night. A bit frustrating. The staff were helpful and the food was good overall. I live close to another Albert’s chain and much prefer there mainly for the clientele and atmosphere.

    We had a lovely afternoon have done all four Albert's and each one is as good as each other. We always feel welcome in each one. Just one problem with Albert's shed they don't do Brooklyn's non alchahol beer which my Husband always enjoys.
