“Berkeley's oldest pub”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed September 10, 2012

The Albatross is a pub you would like to hand around your neck so you could take it with you anywhere. A great, fun friendly place with a terrific selection of beer and other beverages, darts & other games, and very pleasant, interesting people.

“Best spot in Berkeley”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed July 29, 2012 via mobile

Love this place! Dollar bottomless popcorn, darts, trivia night, reasonably priced beer and more. Very cool vibe. Live music twice a week. Low key. It's the coolest place without trying to be cool at all.
