Reviews of The Albie Tavern and Takeaway
Great local pub. Can be very lively on quiz night, it's a staple in Albert town. The beer selection is plenty and the food is good and well priced. It's been a good year working in Wanaka and having a place to go after work to hang and eat. Not a bad place to eat there alone too the staff is pretty chilled
The Albie Takeaway is a funny place. As a family we often travel there as our son (Albie) demands it. When we go, fish and chips are the reason.
Do ring the bell - it's not rude and you'll be waiting if you don't.
The chips are good. The wedges are good. This hasn't changed and I hope never will. If you are looking for chips do look here.
The fish however, varies wildly in portion size and quality of fish. I've had some old tasting fish here - occasionally feeling grateful that they had given us so little. Other times, I've had a good chunk of good fish. You just don't know what you're going to get.
Good pub for a hearty pub style meal and a post work beer. Had the fish pie and burger, both tasty, no complaints. Nice choice of beers on tap, don't know local beers too well yet but the sour and ale I tried were refreshing. Bar tenders were friendly both times we've been. Would recommend for a casual bite. The dining room to the right is nice and bright with big windows. They have an outdoor area of the pub as well.
Chips were great (as they always are from the Albie) salad was dressed lovely but chefs, seriously? I order a chicken schinty which from a tavern should be yum and you serve up an oversized chicken nugget for $28. Needless to say my dog loved it when I smuggled it home for her. Albie do better and serve up real chicken breast. It ain’t hard .
Super average chips. Too over-cooked and dry to eat without sauce. Reminded me of powdery day old chips that have been microwaved, although we waited long enough for them to have been cooked in oil (smelt like old oil in the shop, which I suppose is just the nature of a chip shop). Disappointed that Chip-mad Toddler won’t even eat them, as it was our expensive meal treat for the week. Buyers remorse. Picture shows $13.50 worth of chips.
Unsure if this is the case, but perhaps staff need to be shown how to blanch chips first and do a second cook once customer orders, rather than dump straight from freezer. But if the oil’s old or too hot, that may not improve the outcome. Others may love chips like this, so just down to personal taste.
Best Fish and chips we have had in a long time. Along with our order 3 scoops for 4 adults and 2 wee kids was perfect.
Fish and chips was very good. Price is slightly higher but the portion is generous. Quite slow service and no staff at the front , all were at the back.
From a great selection of different beers (including pickle beer) to a very good selection of delicious food (the pulled pork burger is stunning) a very great experience. Super friendly staff members. Highly recommend this place, you will see me again!
Love this place! Staff are so friendly. Great beers on tap (especially the Mcleods beers) and great spot in the sun in the arvo!
Great place to visit. Drinks are well priced and lots to offer
Menu means around $20-30 and servings were large! Just what you want from a spot like this
Put on an awesome night for Drag bingo, thanks for a great night out
Great food and atmosphere.
Ordered the BBQ platter, great taste especially the pulled pork and ribs.
Highly recommend
