Great little bar. Very friendly staff. Updated June 2022 - still a great little bar. Excellent beers quality atmosphere. Civilised and quiet. UPDATE February 2023 - still going well and still a great place for a drink. Excellent cask beers on a regularly changing rosta with regular guest ales. All this is in addition to the range of North's own (quality) beers. Updated November 2023 - you should go to this bar. Excellent beers, great staff. Pleasant atmosphere.... Remains one of the best local bars and my personal favourite in Meanwood. Good cask offering. Always plenty of choice for other beers lagers and porters. Great atmosphere, looking forward to returning to Alfred for years to come. One of the best bars in Meanwood. Relaxed atmosphere, great beer. Recommended. Update March 2024 - one of the best bars in the area and in my opinion the best bar in Meanwood. Always a pleasant welcome from friendly staff. Great range of beers including local cask options - always a couple of North's own cask offering. On keg, a good range of beers, cider and lagers. Interesting cans from the fridge. They do toasties now and have links to local restaurants for eating in. My only gripe is that yapping dogs are over tolerated - nothing wrong with well behaved dogs / owners, but some owners think the world loves their dog regardless of their behaviour. Not everyone having a pint wants barking dogs in the background. Three barks and you're out should be followed through.... STILL a great little bar. Highly recommended, always a good range of beers including local cask options. Light food options now - various cheese toasties. They still have tie-ups with local restaurants on various nights - you can order food to be brought in for you. A very friendly place to drink, pleasant staff and never any troublesome customers! Looking forward to seeing outdoor seating once the road works have finished. Recommended

Cozy pub run by North Brewing, right along the main road in Meanwood. Laid back atmosphere, and very friendly service makes you feel at home and comfortable. Beer selection is very good, with about ten taps and casks and a number of cans. Quality is very high, North know what they're doing! Overall, a very nice place to visit, chill vibes and great beer!

Incredibly friendly staff. Hannah was absolutely lovely and patient answering all my questions as I do not know much about beer, she made sure I did not even have to get off my seat to get another beer. One recommendation I got and I will not forget was pastore sour. At the end of my visit I even got a few cans to go home. The only small downside is that the chairs seem to be falling apart and now I have to be strategic about where I sit. Nevertheless, this bar it is now my to go place in Meanwood.

Popped into this hostelry for apéritifs. I'd call it quaint yet cool. Our patron for the evening was a most convivial fellow, Chris who was more than agreeable to meet our every need, no matter how niche or bizarre. The beer selection is really good and there's a fridge of tins if you prefer to imbibe sat out in the streets. I recommend Sputnik beer although everything is rather overpriced giving that air of cool pretension which it is not. Overall, I would give this house 6 out of 7 points. I shall return. Hopefully with better company next time.

Seems the current manager cares nothing about the customers, or the beer being served. It has gotten really bland over the recent years. No effort into mixing up stock at all. Bland as Bland can be, gone from the main place to be in Meanwood to the one you go to when the local tory club round the corner closes. Absolute shame given the strides previous managers had taken.

El ambiente encantador y las nuevas ventanas le dan una sensación de estar al aire libre en verano. También puedo decir que al estar en invierno es muy acogedor con su peculiar iluminación y decoración. Una visita obligada si estás en la zona.

Exquisitely annoying place, see below: Pros: Good beer (naturally, this is no longer a USP for a bar) Interesting decoration - the lights and the German style wall of mugs for the regulars spring to mind A neighbourly feel and it's at the centre of the community Cons: Very poor value, especially given the location, the phrase scalping comes to mind (eg. beer that's brewed a couple of miles away which I've managed to source for less the other side of the country). Previously they used to come up with b.s excuses but now they don't even bother arguing otherwise. Nice staff, however I think some have had that trained out of them, with that typical North bar template - fake banter, upselling, nonsensical recommendations, trying to seem cool and contemporary (who cares?) - you get the picture Slightly twee undersized furniture, a bit like Further North, that makes it a bit too primary school classroom.

They say good things come in small packages, and this is very true in Alfred. The place is small, but it doesn't feel over the top crowded even when it was full. It felt very cosy. The beer choices were good, but there was only a couple of red wine choices, would be great if they added a couple more choices to the menu. Would recommend this place for a few drinks with friends.

Great atmosphere. Just nice and calm. Music is in the background and conversation in the forefront. Nice selection of beers that change. Yeah. I like this. Not tried the food yet, if the beer quality is anything to go by then it may well be a winner all round. It can get hectic, a few deep at the bar. That is when the noise level rises and for me becomes too much. If you want a chilled quality pint you cannot go wrong here. If you want quiet contemplation, pick your times . I will however be back such is the diversity offered here.

Whilst on a road trip in Arizona, I undertook a piece of research on Margaritas. I created a score system; 1-5. The system was based on themes such as whether a mix was used (should be just lime), quality of Tequila (crucial), if there was ice (none) , whether it was a short (of course) etc etc Needless to say, after three weeks I was just walking into bars and stating what was required, so sick was I of stupid great pint glasses of nasty sweet mixer, way too much ice and a faint whiff of crap tequila. So, on my return, apart from a Margarita mixed from my very own ship bar in the kitchen (the best), I went to Alfred's. This is a fine fine bar in Meanwood. Great for craft beer, a few well mixed cocktails and always nice wines around. If you fancy, also cheese or meat boards, but basically it's a bar. The staff are fab and there is table service if you get settled in. I grumpily ordered a Margarita and there you have it....masses of lime, just a little ice and the right booze. Bloody bliss and thank god...I was losing faith that the world knew what to do. Thank you Alfred's.
