I volunteer in a building across the street and have been heading over to the restaurant in the atrium about once a week for a couple months. Great sandwiches, home made soups, and fun specials like the New York style hotdog. Quick and tasty - who could ask for anything more.

Same ol' Albert as so many years ago, and I wouldn't want it any other way. Comfortable, casual and laid back.

I was just here for an event. It was a great location for goth night. Large enough to accommodate and small enough to look packed. Floor plan worked and the dance floor was optimal. Bartenders could be a little friendlier. They did good but didn't look super happy to be there or spend any time chatting up patrons. Being in the industry, I know this is where their tips come from. All in all though, it was a great night.

Went to the Royal Albert hotel to listen to some music and simple but good food. As you can see the musicians are extremely tall. The bagel burger was vegan but had a really great taste to it and hit the spot. Wasn’t overly packed, but had the right amount of people for a fun evening
