The Prince Albert (Rose's), Woolwich

It is a shame that rich had a bad pint on his first visit here as the beer is pretty much what its all about. It's also a shame that he didn't complain as he would have had his beer replaced instantly and without complaint and the offending article being taken off sale immediately. The beer quality and range in Roses is consistently superb and the atmosphere in the pub is always friendly (although it can be dead at certain times of day). There is also an excellent selection of Belgian beers. The pub has been in the Good beer guide every year for the last 10 years or so and this is not undeserved. The clientelle is very varied with a large number of regulars consisting of locals and local workers (particularly from the nearby University) and also a lot of people who visit specifically because of reccomendations / reputation within CAMRA / and because of its perpetual entry in the good beer guide.

If you like a good pint of real ale and are in Woolwich then you must look it out. If you are an enthusiast then you must seek it out.
