Great pub. Good music, chilled vibe, decent beer. Live band nights are definitely worth checking out.

Not sure I went to the same pub as everyone else who's posted here, but after 2 execrable pints of ale (one of which was returned as too rancid to even smell, and one of which just got left after 2 mouthfuls as stale and undrinkable) had to abandon ship and go elsewhere. Basically a glorified public bar, with minimal seating, no discernible comfort value and a damp musty smell (which may have come from the motley clientele). Whatever others may say about the White Hart,(where we promptly retreated to) it's comfortable, they know how to look after their beer - and while I have yet to try it, their food looks impressive.

They have started having a market and bbq in the beer garden - I think it's on every Saturday now.

Far better than the White Hart across the street.

You tend to get served without growing a beard in the Alma.

Smartened up and interesting hostelry nowadays.

Back in the 90's this was my local - fabulous pub, run by big Brian and wife Mami - who was tiny! A wonderful deep red, dark, hard edged sort of place with many scenes of the battle (of the Alma) on the walls. Wonderfully old school run and populated by characters from a Brehct play.
Its good to hear theres a new era starting for my old favourite, will give it a visit when in the area.
