The Albert
Named after Queen Victoria's husband, the Prince Consort, 1864
Location: 52 Victoria Street, SW1H 0NP
Description: This distinguished pub has survived the Blitz and 1960's redevelopment. Far from being intimidated by the skyscrapers that surround it, the Albert stands proud against its bland neighbours. It was built in 1864, on the site of a pub called the Bluecoat Boy, and was named in honour of Queen Victoria's husband, the Prince Consort.
