    My husband and I had lunch here, AMAZING! The food was outstanding, along with the service. It's such a quaint little bar and restaurant with a fabulous garden out the back. It's probably the best food we've ever had, seriously! Been here a few times now, it's the only place my husband will go for food. Loved it, thank you 😊

    This was our first time visiting the Allaton Inn and I’m positive it’s not going to be our last. Service was amazing, the food was beautiful and all the staff were fabulous from start to finish if I could rate it a million stars I would! Definitely recommend

    The starters must try. I am not a big fan of black pudding but they’re delicious. The main a lot of selection but the pork is lovely and my husband had venison burger also delicious we had a lovely night.
