John's Pub In Alessandria

I've been going there for years, excellent dishes and sandwiches, friendly staff, perhaps tables a little too close together

Old fashioned pub, good beers and food too

Excellent beer and very good sandwiches 🍺

Location True Pub, long wooden counter and comfortable stools beyond the table arrangements. Unique choice of beers with 4 (or 5?) types of Gordon from the least alcoholic to the strong 10° one. Plus a fabulous English bitter. For me, who loves traditional beers, one of the last high quality outposts. Personally I can't stand 99% of craft beers: on the other hand it is unlikely that the Sesto San Giovanni brewer who started producing the day before yesterday has a quality comparable to the master brewers who have been operating with very high professionalism for 100/500 years. The food is typical of a real pub: meats, hot dogs, hamburgers, eggs, all expertly cooked and of high quality. The family management is welcoming and friendly. Finally the music: miscellany of the best in rock music: from David Bowie to Pink Floyd, from Foo Fighters to Oasis, from Zeppelin to Deep Purple. When I pass through Alessandria the stop is mandatory. In my personal top list of Italian Pubs.
