The Alex
A Gwydir Street pub for burgers, beer and banter, with a garden room.
The Alex stands on Gwydir Street. Its website sums it up as great food, beers, banter, garden and welcome, and the pub offers a garden room as well as the garden itself. The building's fuller name is The Alexandra Arms.
Food and drink
The menu centres on burgers and other mains, available to eat in or take away. Orders and payment can be made through the website for delivery to your table or for collection, and a separate page covers bookings for the pub, the garden room or the garden. The kitchen runs from midday to 14:30 and 17:00 to 21:00 on weekdays, midday to 21:00 on Saturday and midday to 15:00 on Sunday.
On the bar side, the site offers a near-real-time list of the beers, ciders and craft beers on draught and coming up in the cellar. It also sells a loyalty card that earns points to redeem against the next bar bill.
Events
The pub runs a regular calendar. A Boozy Book Club meets on the last Tuesday of each month, there are rock karaoke nights, and a live traditional music session is listed on some Sunday afternoons.
Practical notes
The pub opens from midday to 23:00 Monday to Saturday and midday to 17:00 on Sunday. The phone number is 01223 324441.
