My favourite pub and my local also. Great food and atmosphere. Friendly staff and dog friendly also. Love watching football here with friends and a few beers. The Sunday Roasts are special.
Even after 5 years living in London, easily top 3 best pubs in the city for me. Selection of beers, service and awesomeness of décor inside are unmatched. Super chill place and perfect example of british pub. With a twist. I love this place so much.
Had a fab time on Saturday night!
The bar staff were really helpful especially considering how busy it was! Georgia was very smiley and quick, and Albert had the show under control and was very accommodating!
I wasn’t very hungry so I just got the calamari - it was peppery and fresh!
Music by the DJ was filled with some big singalongs that got everyone very very merry!
Thank you Alma team!

🚇 Canonbury
🍺 £5.40 Becks Vier
❤️ A fantastic movie themed N1 boozer.

The Alma is located in Newington Green which is halfway between Highbury and Dalston. The nearest station is Canonbury which is a gentle five minute walk away.
.
The Alma was built mid 19th century along with the Victorian terrace it nestles in to. The exterior of the pub is simple but elegant, the paint is a deep blue and the orange awnings add a splash of colour. Inside, the decor here is a film buff’s dream. Around the walls are posters, neon signs and even life size models from the most famous films ever to grace the silver screen. You will find yourself gazing around the pub trying to name the films and actors. The bar area is in a “U” shape with lots of comfy low level seating including a couple of cinema seats. There is a large TV screen if you fancy catching a live premiere league game.
.
The beer line up has a bit of something for everyone but no cask options. I had a pint of Becks Vier which you don’t see too often, my pint was excellent and reasonably priced. The food menu is a mix of British classics and tasty pizza’s. On my first visit here, my Daughter and I took advantage of the 241 deal and we really enjoyed the food. If you visit on a Sunday then sumptuous roasts are the order of the day. The service was good, the lady who served me was lovely.
.
The atmosphere was relaxed and chilled on Saturday lunchtime with a few locals in attendance. While I was here I watched a bit of Leicester v Palace game along with a few others. This pub has lots going on to keep you entertained, throughout the month are live band’s nights, DJ sets and jam sessions, check out their Insta for updates.

@thealma_n1 is one of those pubs that you immediately feel welcome and at home in. The decor here is brilliant and creates an atmosphere of familiarity and intrigue. The beer and food are bang on and the entertainment will give you something to talk about the next day. This is a great pub for any occasion and a must visit, I’ll be back! 😎

Friendly service and very popular with locals. Just stay away from the fries and you’ll be fine!
Great pub, lovely vibe. Really friendly staff and reasonably priced
Folk music on Friday nights. Friendly bar staff. Awesome decor. What more do you need? Would be my favourite pub if they allowed dogs inside. For this reason I don't go there often
Great little local pub. Lovely roast. They've always got something going on. Dog friendly
One of my favourite pubs in London. Great for watching sport, relaxing with friends, a great selection of well priced drinks and fab staff!
A fun and lively pub that had live Irish music which kept everyone going. Went with a group of friends and had an enjoyable time. Enough of a variety on type and various wines to choose from. Didn't wait too long for a drink either which was great.
