The Albatross in Berkeley, San Francisco Bay, United States | Pub

Welcome to The Albatross Pub, Berkeley, United States. Being the oldest Pub in Berkeley, The Albatross started in 1964 by Bill Scanlon and Phil Randall, it soon came under the ownership of brothers Val & Bob Johnson for the next 30 years. In 1997 Wendy Halambeck and Linda Zsilavetz became the new owners and completely restored and refurbished the interior as well as constructed a new exterior. Hoping to keep the best parts of this Berkeley fixture, as well as drastically improving the product selection, it has become one of the nicest places in the Bay Area to sit with friends or meet new people and enjoy a single malt scotch, Belgian beer or a fresh domestic microbrew.

The Albatross... is one of my favorite bars in the world. It's really cool, it feels real warm inside. There are booths, each table has a little lamp over it and chess boards ready to go. You can go anytime and see people playing anything from Chutes & Ladders to chess.”

Additional features include being able to bring your dog before 8pm (if he or she does not mind being on a leash) buying a variety of dart supplies and bringing in your own food if you prefer something other than a slice of Little Chicago deep dish feta and spinach pizza. We will assist you with reserving tables and/or dart lanes for meetings and parties.
