Albion, Warrington

I have to agree with the last comment, this is not a place for users to bicker or make personal remarks. this is a place for constructive feedback.

I've been a regular in the Albion now for almost five years and have seen the changes that Mark, Gill and Kev have made since taking the pub on. apart from the Saturday disco and the occasional band practice upstairs it is a reasonably quiet pub. There's a monthly rock music night and a monthly acoustic jam night that are well worth a visit. Since the current management came they have been pushing live music and good beer, they have brought the pub into the good beer guide with 3-6 beers on regularly. The pub was Cheshire pub of the year and Cheshire cider pub of the year. The staff, once you get to know them are an extremely knowledgeable and (mostly) lively bunch.
They have an active dominoes team, regular poker nights and operate as a community hub, hosting several local tenants and residents groups. Some of the customers can be a bit Marmite but with the welcoming and accepting atmosphere that the Albion is run with, means that this can occasionally happen.

I may be biased though (I like Marmite).
