The Alma, Crystal Palace

The Alma, Crystal Palace

Part of our Best Pubs in London microsite. Is your local listed?

Surrounded by other excellent pubs, the Alma's stands out by doing everything to a high standard. And better than before. Where previously the place was not known for its ale range, it now boasts 14 beer lines, several of which will likely be new to most punters. The food, meanwhile, is roundly agreed to be excellent.

The clinching bonus, however, is the never-ending beer garden, host of a popular BBQ. We've seen housing estates built in the same kind of space. So happy were we to perch in the sunshine that we even persuaded our resident bard to give the group a sing-song (see pics below, from a few years back).
