"Had a really bad vegan option experience here today. The pub itself is in a great location, it 's very quirky and traditional. It 's often quite difficult when eating out with family to find a place that has some decent vegan options. Having looked at the menu,there seemed to be a few decent vegan options for us to try. My sister had the chicken and mango sandwich,which she said was tasty. I had the only vegan sandwich option, which was allegedly pulled BBQ Jack fruit . It was cold,it wasn 't pulled at all,more likely tipped out of the tin and smothered in a cheap BBQ sauce. It was awful. It was served on the same bread everyone else 's sandwiches were served on,which has now sent alarm bells ringing,and it came with fries and coleslaw,which I didn 't eat,as I just didn 't trust it was vegan. The salad just looked limp and very sad. Having made pulled jackfruit at home , I know for sure this had definitely not been pulled. If you offer a vegan option,then at least make the effort,make sure everything on the plate is 100% vegan,and stop charging the same price as you do for the meat and fish options. It 's simply outrageous that something that clearly took little effort or passion to create is the same price as every regular sandwich. Really wished we tried Dirty Bottle instead. Nothing worse than eating complete rubbish when you 're famished. No vegan pale ale either !!!How hard can it be ?"

The gluten free menu at this restaurant is somewhat limited, but the staff are willing to accommodate any items that are not marked as gluten free on the menu. They offer gluten free options like burgers, pizza, and sides. The food was delicious and the staff were friendly and helpful. View menu

This local pub is clean and friendly, but unfortunately the sandwiches were not good. The bread was dry and hard, the chicken was cold and in chunks, making it impossible to enjoy as a sandwich. I suggest using softer bread and adding some butter. Service is rated 3 out of 5 and the location is a 5.

Looked with interest at the menu here ,and decided to visit to try the Sunday Roast . Perfect location in the town of Alnwick Stunning Town . Our host , Sophie seated us as we entered we chose to eat at 1200hrs . Sophie was friendly , courteous and cheerful . We chose two roast beef Sunday lunch , they came freshly prepared and piping hot . Portion size was excellent, and food was delicious. Beef was perfect , vegetables were also cooked to perfection, and the request for extra gravy was quickly bought to our table. Dog friendly, which is a +plus , great location and atmosphere. Food and service fantastic- would highly recommend it . Booking may be advised as it did get busy after we arrived...
