The Albany
About the Business
Welcome to The Albany, a historic institution located at Auckland, Dairy Flat Highway, 276 in New Zealand. This multifaceted venue encompasses a bar, establishment, food, park, point of interest, and restaurant, making it a must-visit destination for locals and tourists alike.
Immerse yourself in the rich local history that surrounds The Albany. Dating back to 1847, the first pub in Lucas Creek, known as the Warfside Inn, stood proudly until it tragically burned down in 1886. It was in that same year that the site for The Albany was established, marking the beginning of a new era. Formerly known as Lucas Creek, the area was renamed Albany in 1891, paying homage to Daniel Lucas, a whaler who ventured ashore and established a flax mill here in 1840.
The current structure of The Albany was built in 1936, making it relatively young in architectural years. Following a devastating fire, the decision was made to rebuild and transform the premises into a hotel with accommodation. Today, The Albany stands as a testament to the enduring spirit of Kiwi pubs, reminiscent of the pioneer classics that graced the nineteenth century.

Reviews
"I’ve come here on many occasions for family events but decided to pop in with some friends for dinner the other night. Can’t fault the food or service, everything was cooked perfectly. Highly recommend the calamari and shrimp salad"
"We have never been here before, but we ordered tonight for delivery. The food arrived on schedule and was very nice. Our family ordered the meat platter, steak & eggs, nachos, and chicken nuggets & chips. My son did complain that the chips in his nachos were a bit soggy, but that would be due to having it delivered. We really enjoyed the meat platter, which says it is suitable for 3-5 people. We think it would definitely be closer to 3 people unless you had other things to eat or were small/light eaters. The ribs were voted the best item in the platter. Chicken nuggets & chips were pretty standard, and the steak & eggs were delicious. We were watching Kitchen Nightmares while eating our dinner, so we were potentially more likely to be critical of what we were eating - but it was delicious, and we were very pleased with it."
"Came here on Tuesday Rib night. Staff was accommodating and gave us a well lit spot! We got the ribs (of course), Margherita pizza, mussel pot, special beef curry and kids nuggets and pizza. Servings were generous and the fries were a highlight at the table! Coconut curry sauce for the mussels was a bit bland. Overall a great place to come for a family din! Thank you!"
