The Albany, Thames Ditton
I have one major problem with this place - the price of their soft drinks.
This is the first time I've been compelled to post a comment about a pub, but we had lunch at The Albany yesterday and we were charged �2.80 for a pint of lime and soda! That's a splash of lime cordial topped up with fizzy water from the drinks dispenser. For �2.80. There is no way on god's earth that price is justifiable.
Of course I complained about this. I was told they don't have a 'button' for a pint of lime and soda, so charge two �1.40 charges for two 'glasses' of lime and soda. Which in itself is extremely overpriced. The manager also said they don't set the prices themselves so cannot do anything about it. Nice.
The fact they have the audacity to charge this insanely high price has made me vow never to return until they sort their pricing out, and am encouraging all of my local friends to do the same (I've contacted the management company with this issue, and may hear back, but am not holding my breath).
