This week, The Shrewsbury Biscuit Podcast is coming to you from one of the town’s most iconic landmarks, The Alb. Standing proudly for over 200 years, it’s seen generations of drinkers walk through its doors — and now it’s entering a brand new era.

Alex is joined by owner Jay to chat about the journey that led to his name being above the door, why in business you always have to keep moving, and how his takeover of both The Alb and Dinky’s Diner is bringing a fresh sense of fun and inclusivity to Shrewsbury.

Recorded upstairs in the newly renovated space, Jay also talks about working with Claire from Colours of Shrewsbury, whose creativity can now be seen across The Alb’s social media and the new look of Dinky’s too.

There’s a real buzz around town at the moment, and this episode feels like the start of something exciting for Shrewsbury. There’s definitely something in the air.
