PAST EVENTS/REVIEWS:
You can review the Alex on Google, on TripAdvisor or in our green book at the bar. Please do.
We took note of the first Warwickshire Open Studios reviews in that book and you can see them here.

Not sure what its like here? We have a quick overview by video of the range of activities here in 2023 in this video. As owners of the Alex, Chris and Steve also did an podcast interview about how it started off for The Story Farmer in 2023.

VISITING THE ALEX?

We are close to Rugby rail station and the coach depot (both are 0.5 miles) and near to many town centre bus stops.We are just next door to John Barford multi-storey car park and also adjacent to the Railway Terrace car parks. Car parking fees for these council-run car parks are very reasonable (e.g. £1 for 3 hours, March 2024) HOWEVER note that John Barford is locked (closed to cars and pedestrians) between 7pm and 5am.

The Alex is on the edge of Rugby Town centre. It is only a short walk from shops, pubs and restaurants in Rugby's 'Independent' quarter and not far from other Rugby shops, the Rugby Art Gallery and Museum and Rugby School. This is a lively town with two theatres, two art galleries, an opera company and some great places to spend time (and money!)

Although we are not a real ale pub there are many pubs in the town and the 2024 Camra Pub of the Year is very close indeed - The Seven Stars.
