Description

If you’re looking for a laid-back bar in the hip heart of Regent’s Park, make sure The Albany is your first port of call. 

Located in the capital’s swanky Fitzrovia district, the pub is named after the Piccadilly apartments that housed some of London’s most iconic names for over 200 years, including politicians, film stars and artists. 

Inside, you’ll find a varied classic British menu, as well as a well-stocked bar with an impressive choice of premium drinks, including craft beers, wines and artisan spirits. 

With a traditional wood-panelled bar and stylish leather upholstery, this welcoming pub offers the perfect spot to catch up with friends over dinner or unwind with an afterwork drink. There’s also a bookable space, comedy nights during the week and Sky Sports for catching the big game.

Downstairs @ The Albany Basement Space 60 100 - - -

Downstairs @ the Albany is a hidden gem, part of the pub but also a venue in its own right with private entrance, bar and toilets.

Over the years, it has played host to a litany of comedians and artists, and was the location of the first ever residency for the Chemical Brothers (The Dust Brothers) with the Heavenly Sunday Social.

This is a perfect space for daytime or evening Corporate Business events or celebration. We can offer boardroom seating, theater style or even seating in different areas for break out groups or similar.

Whether you are looking to host a Corporate Function or party the night away we can help with all your needs. The space holds 100 guests standing or 75 if you are using the stage area. We have a private entrance available on request and separate toilets. The space includes a fully stocked private bar so you have everything you need to have a perfect night with us.

Full PA system set up and AV equipment to cater to every need.

* The minimum spends are a guideline only and vary according to the day and time of the year.
