We’ve scoured the length and breadth of the south coast to find musicians that have the ability to satisfy even the most discerning ear. All you need to do is sit back, relax, and enjoy top-quality live jazz as you sip your Sunday après-roast digestifs.
Lovingly restored to its Victorian glory (more or less), and specialising in gin and craft beer, the Old Albion is your one-stop shop for libation, hunger satiation, and the finest gatherings in town.
