Albion Taphouse, Burton upon Trent

245 Shobnall Road, Shobnall, Burton upon Trent, DE14 2BE (View on Google Map)

Imposing, multi-gabled, late 19th-century pub with an open plan smartly furnished interior (refurbished 2018), several 'rooms' being linked in an L-shape, featuring numerous framed pictures, old local photographs, and brewing memorabilia. There is also a large function room upstairs, plus a conservatory overlooking the garden.

Note the unusual old stained glass fanlight above the inside front entrance door.

Disappointingly, for what is virtually the brewery tap, the number of available cask beers has progressively nose-dived from around 11 to a typical one since early 2019.

The extensive food menus include hot meals and snacks, pizzas, vegan options and children's dishes.

While there is some concentration on food, the two sections towards the rear of the pub (on the left) are set aside for drinkers.

Interactive quiz night on Thursdays.

The Burton Folk Club meets here on Friday evenings except during the summer.

Dogs are allowed on the patio and in the garden, but NOT inside the pub (with the exception of assistance dogs).

Historic Interest

Built as a coaching inn/hotel in the 1880s and named after the nearby brewery. The latter was built in 1874 and bought by Marston's from Mann, Crossman & Paulin in 1902. Still referred to locally as the Albion Hotel, but it is not known when accommodation ceased to be available; best guess is the 1920s!
