Very pretty, very good traditional cask ale pub within easy walking distance from Ely Cathedral or Oliver Cromwell's house. Eight cask ales are available on tap, plus some kegged options. While the inside is comfy and spacious, it's really the expansive beer garden to the back that makes the pub special (apart from the very good cask selection, of course). Very good seating in pleasant weather, and the weather WAS pleasant at the time of my visit in August. Service was a bit spotty, but that didn't detract from the overall good experience. A pub you'll visit for both the beer and the setting!
What an absolute treat this was! The Prince Albert ticks all the boxes for what you'd expect for a nice traditional English pub. I would highly recommend this venue to anyone looking to experience a good ol' fashioned British pub, with a wide selection of beers & great quality British food.
I'd never eaten here before, but I'm so glad I did. Having lived abroad for the last 3 years - I was really craving a good quality Fish n' Chips and I got exactly that. Honestly, one of the nicest I've had since I can remember. A delicious golden crispy coating, delicate, juicy and flaky fish . Not too greasy at all and served with a nice mushy pea puree. Oh and the chips! Proper homemade hand-cut chips (chunky, crispy on the outside, fluffy on the inside) simply delish!
The bar staff were extremely friendly, helpful, polite and observative - exactly what you want went dining out. Really great pub with a nice atmosphere, highly recommended!
Even though we arrived an hour late for our booking due to train delays our party didn't feel rushed at all.
Food was good but the main appeal was the beautiful garden seating area. Nice to see it's dog friendly too!
