Albion
It's a hive of perpetual activity from morning till night: breakfast is a big draw, especially at weekends, when porridge, kedgeree & bloody Marys give way gradually to devilled kidneys, shepherd's pie or sausage & mash. The pavement tables are among the nicest in town; indoors, sharing tables is a given & the semi-open kitchen adds to the utilitarian theme. No bookings, so be prepared to queue.
