Albion Inn - East Dorset

Last night, I had a delightful meal with friends at The Albion. We decided to try some of the new menu items, which were simply amazing. The friendly and helpful staff welcomed us with smiles, and we opted to dine in the bar for a more relaxed experience. The food was all deliciously prepared and beautifully presented, and our group enjoyed sharing a variety of starters such as kofta and prawns. For our mains, we savored the flavorful hunters chicken and fresh hand-cut salad. Two of us also tried the chili, which was a hit, although they weren't keen on sharing! I highly recommend exploring the new and expanded menu at The Albion - you won't be disappointed!

I visited The Albion frequently during the Christmas and New Year period. It's a fantastic local pub with a warm and friendly atmosphere, always buzzing with live music and delicious food. The staff are welcoming and it's great to see that they haven't raised their prices like some other places have. It's very affordable and I always enjoy my time there.

There is no central heating in the bar, just an oil radiator in the middle of the floor. We were not impressed with the lack of ambiance and the high prices - over £13 for a glass of wine and bitter. We will not be returning.

I've eaten at The Albion regularly this year, a great find, seriously good food, varied menu, lots of specials that are updated often, great atmosphere, lovely friendly staff, good looking restaurant, quick service, however packed it gets in there. Great local pub restaurant. Reluctant to try anywhere else because this place is so reliable. The regular event nights get booked up fast so best to get in there quickly.

Had a very pleasant lunch here today with a group of fellow walkers. The dining area was very spacious and light and the lunch menu had something on it for everyone, including Vegan and gluten-free options. The waiter was very pleasant and helpful and the food, while a little slow coming out, was enjoyed by everyone. One of us asked for coffee in a mug which he found while the rest was served in their usual cups and saucers. The food looked a little expensive but as they had a 2 for £20 offer on worked out okay. Very happy to reccomend them and I would definitely eat there again.
