Eight of us had a wonderful meal here, all home cooked and everyone complimented their meal which we asked to be passed on to the chef. Desserts were good too. The menu has a good range of options. We had a bit of trouble finding staff to take our order for main course and desserts initially and wondered if they were a bit overstretched however this is a very small issue and we would all highly recommend this wonderful pub for ambience, location and best if all - fabulous home made food, thank you.

Having joy visited The Allerford for a few years we decided to give it a go with family visiting. It was a Friday night on our visit and we where very surprised to find the pub almost completely empty!

The food was superb and very well priced same with the drinks. We ordered a mixture of scampi and chips and fish and chips along with starters, all of which where very tasty.

The service was brilliant, the waitress was very patient as we took a while to make our mind up.

Only problem was the atmosphere, the pub was completely empty which I found very strange.

Only stopped for a drink after a day a work. Not bad. Appears geared up for food more than a place you may choose just for a relaxing drink. Cant say I'd go out of my way to go back. Not outstanding really.

Having visited here for both dinner and lunch on several occasions we decided to give the Sunday carvery a go. There was a good selection of veg, including dauphinois potatoes and a choice of meats. Overall it was a good meal but not as great as the previous meals we have had here. We’ll definitely be back but probably order off the regular menu. Highly recommend saving room for dessert too, they’re amazing!

Nice that a menu is offered with a good selection of food as well as the Carvery for Sunday lunch. Food was good as usual.

We booked online for a table of 6 adults and one child. This was easy and clear to do. The adults all had the carvery. There was a good selection of vegetables and 2 meats. The only downside was that the food wasn’t very hot and the plates were cold. And we were booked in for 12pm. ( so it wasn’t like we were at the end of the service.)
We will book again and hope it was a one off today.

Had a super mid week meal. There was a good choice on the menu and the portions were very generous. The staff were very friendly and the service was prompt- I would definitely come back if in the area.

Very quick & easy to book a table online. The food was lovely but we were slightly disappointed to be told upon our arrival that there was no Rump Steak,Slow Braised Lamb or Fish Pie (all offered on their main menu & they only offer one type of steak,)
We thought that this was a lack of organisation as it was @ 7.30 on a Friday night, what we thought was the start of a weekend not a Sunday night after a busy weekend.Shame. May try the carvery next time :-(

We had a lovely "date night" at The Allerford Inn last night - a quiet atmosphere, but made warmer by the hum of music and the friendly characters behind the bar. We had a couple of starters to share (halloumi and the mushrooms) - both very yummy and set us up ready for the mains!

My partner had the Pork belly and I had the hunters chicken. Both were very generous portions - the pork belly was huge! Thankfully my boyfriend has a great appetite.. :)

Both meals were delicious and cooked beautifully - the chips were lovely and crispy/fluffy - great country pub grub. We'll be back for the pina colada slushie when it's available!

We wanted to celebrate my Mums 80th birthday with all the family and all the staff were very accommodating and let us have a private room to use and we enjoyed the most amazing carvery with a huge choice of veg and beautiful meats and the puddings were generous and delicious! Would recommend highly and the service and friendliness of all the staff was outstanding. Mum had a wonderful time thankyou!
