Unfreindly bar staff, music was too loud, beer choice was OK. Seemed a bit dated. For a pub with a huge reputation for live music it seems to have declined. Not bad, but not good.

I was among many to give this place a chance. Was in a few weeks ago to find the place empty and moderate Courage Best,as the previous poster has stated. However I visited last night to find idiots and kids running amok,nobody behind the bar,no ale at all and children playing the fruit machine. What a shame.

Still very glad to see it reopen, but where has all the beer gone? Now just one real ale, dull dull dull Courage Best. I fear they have given up too soon on interesting microbrewery beers, it takes time to establish a reputation; but would be rewarded with loyal custom.

Welcome rejuvenation of a pub once threatened with closure.

Great beer best pub in bedminster second only to the assembly, 8/10

Visited to find Bristol Beer Factory No7 and Exhibition on,in addition to Bath Festivity. Gorgeous Russian barmaid. Alas got served the 1st pt of Festivity of the day which I thought had run out,so it was returned but was graciously replaced(training issue Mr landlord?). The No7 was excellent,(have had a few moderate pints of same in the past.) Pleasing decor. Bloodstained drunken "mong" who decided to grace us with his company was quickly ejected. Decent smoking area. A fine effort,now let the the people of Bedminster arise and savour the place please...........

Reopened Thursday last. Beer range reported to be 2 from Bristol Beer Factory and "Bristols finest" Courage Best thats made in Bedford via Tadcaster. (Why bother with this when you have a lovely freehouse??) Great to see this landmark pub reopened,well done to all concerned. No rating until visited,but if the Windmill is anything to go on it should be fine.

Due to re-open soon!

Alas the Albert has been closed and boarded up for several months after a lengthy campaign to keep it open. Looks like being sold for housing development. Was formerly an excellent jazz/folk music venue.
