Wonderful new addition to Woden. Great beer (I tried the Alby, which was light and refreshing) good food (the chicken burger was excellent while the mushroom burger was just average) and the concept is outstanding. Outdoor seating is surrounded by jasmine and the retro 80s music is fun. In the basement is a room with mini bowling alleys, pool tables and pinball machines. We'll be back!

Great service and attention for a fantastic birthday party. We had a 21st birthday party at the Alby last Saturday night. Sarah and the staff were incredibly friendly and attentive. They made sure the evening was a success. Everything went perfectly. The food and drinks were perfect for our guests and the games kept them entertained. Highly recommended for a function!

Only discovered this place about a week ago. Great to see more decent pubs opening in the Woden area and livening the place up. This has a great outdoor seating area for the warmer weather, but also has a cool downstairs sports bar with pool table, modified bowling alley and pinball machines. Had a session here recently with some friends and has a great friendly vibe. Will definitely be back.

This is such a fun place! The ball game and pool table were awesome. The staff were lovely. And the fitout is just gorgeous. I will definitely be back to try out the food, it looks great. Also you can order and pay from your table which is a brilliant idea. So nice to have such a funky place in Woden

Awesome atmosphere. Great food and I loved the downstairs adult playground, a true one of a pub/bar. Well done guys.

This bar at the base of the refurbished building was quite pleasing. It is modern and open plan. There's plenty of indoor and outdoor seating arrangements for various group sizes. The food and drinks menu was ample, service was prompt, and food was tender, freshly made, and tasty. Ordering from the menu website was problematic using the QR code, felt a bit difficult to handle, and included a surcharge from the website service provider. That was a surprise. I loved the concept although the staffed bar is 2 metres away.

Went there for lunch. It was not too busy and therefore the staff were attentive and kind. Really lovely ambience and chill vibes. You order on the table which is very easy through the app or by tapping your phone - no need for unhygienic paper menus. Yummy chicken lollipops and yhe chicken main. The pizzas are traditional and I think we just ordered one which probably didn't suit our tastes but a great experience otherwise. Iced coffee was also delicious. I hope they remain chill and friendly and quick good service.

We dined at The Ably tonight for our anniversary dinner having heard great things about the location. We had some wonderful cocktails, super delicious and we found the atmosphere really pleasing. However, our food was quite the disappointment. Our food came out completely mixed up. Wrong extras on each plate, sauces wrong, extra prawns were about the size of a 10cent piece, supposed to be 5, was only 4 cost $10 extra. When we asked the waitress about this she seemed to think everything was correct, even bringing the receipt out to show us. When she realised it was wrong she went and got some missed items, whilst my wife and I exchanged bits and pieces on our plates. There was also no coleslaw as pictured in the menu which I was really looking forward too.... probably sounds strange, but I had a craving for it once I saw it, instead a handful of dressed rocket. When we asked about this, we were told... oh, is that still on the menu, we don't do that anymore. My wife has an intolerance to rocket, so it would have been good to know. We aren't normally fussy people, but when we consider how much we spent on the food - two mains were $95, it was absolutely not worth the value and the mess ups really decreased the enjoyment. Very very over priced, especially when not executed well or paired with the advertised items.

Been here twice - once for food and once for drinks. The food was tasty and the staff were attentive. The downstairs area was a great spot to drink a beer and watch the cricket. A much needed addition to Woden.

Such a good place. Great service, good drinks and nice food. Pool, pinball and mini-bowling downstairs!

Had a good gathering here. Very nice setting. Food is good. I had the beer-battered fish and chips. Very crispy (both fish and chips). Serving size is big, but not enormous. Was very happy with the QR code ordering process (bring your glasses if reading your screen is a problem 😊). Would definitely go again.

Great food and good service. Extra points for actually having a nice, proper and expensive high chair for my little one so I could enjoy my dinner too.

Great pub, nice decor, fast service, helpful staff. Looking forward to using the bowling alley next time!

The Alby is beautifully well-appointed and the decor is brilliant. On face value it's a jewel in Woden's crown. Unfortunately there were some severe customer service issues when I popped in for dinner and drinks on Friday January 28, 2022 with a couple friends. I think this place has been around for a few months so you'd think they would have sorted out any major teething issues by now. We ordered using the QR code on our table (#52 from memory) and we were left waiting over 30 minutes for our jug of dark & stormy to arrive. When the jug did arrive it contained several fruit flies (delicious) and the young gentleman serving us said that he'd bring a replacement jug...however this took another 30 minutes, meaning we were left waiting for an hour total for one drink. This was despite multiple follow-ups and courtesy responses "yea i'll get that right away". This particular staff member didn't seem to care one way or another as he also mentioned that he would bring us a second jug for free by way of apology but this never occurred (after another 30 minutes we explained the situation to another staff member and he graciously brought the second jug out very quickly). The food also took the best part of an hour to come out. My advice would be that if this place is even moderately busy you should avoid ordering drinks from the QR code system and just walk to the bar and order instead. This should alleviate any big delays in getting your drinks. The food is good quality for pub style food, albeit a little overpriced. I'm hoping the customer service improves in future as this place has a lot of potential to make Woden proud.

What a great venue! Most the food on the menu is quite indulgent, but tasty!

G. F.

Good vibe, the at table ordering on your mobile works well, pop downstairs for a look at the games hall.

Great and fast service even though they were quite busy today. Love the downstairs area, the best place to have a fun with your family and friends!

Love The Alby. I had my birthday dinner and drinks here. We started upstairs for dinner and partied downstairs in the basement playing pool and drinking cocktails (which are delish). The staff are amazing and the food was excellent, gluten free options as well. Thank you for the best time. As a Canberra local, it's great to see the Woden nightlife again!
