The Albion reopened Monday 18th November 2024 - new paint job, new brewery & pump clips, but otherwise the same familiar pub.

Small cosy pub, opposite the bottom of Station Hill, thus the closest pub to Winchester rail station. The street-corner location at a busy junction gives it an unusual shape, and makes it an ideal place to watch the world go by. No meals, but bar snacks such as pork pies, rolls and Scotch eggs often available.
