About this restaurant

  • Romantic
  • Good for special occasions

Food is our forte at The Alverton and we let our fresh seasonal dishes do the talking. The flavours are delicate and delicious and the portions are generous. The restaurant overlooks the mature, rolling gardens where the birdsong fills the air – a treat in the city. Start with cocktails on the terrace or in the bar, linger over lunch or dive into dinner – however you dine make it The Alverton way.

    Our first visit but won’t be our last! Lovely bright rooms excellent service from staff. We went for lunch which was excellent and a glass of fizz for my husband whose birthday it was is a nice touch. Only suggestion from me, if I was pushed, a couple more choices on lunch menu. But whole experience was excellent.

    The positives, lovely venue, happy staff and availability to book at short notice. On the flip side, we waited 25 minutes for food after being seated for our tea and the very polite waiter told me there would be other flavours of sandwiches on the stand after I told him I don't like salmon. When it arrived my mum ate the salmon sandwiches and I ate the cheese. No exception to my request! The scones were hands down amazing! The chef's cakes were average and we left them after tasting them, I looked at the other tables and they'd done the same. Overall, a special venue but feels too big for the amount of customers that were actually in on the day - it felt empty with not much atmosphere.
    The AlvertonResponded on April 12, 2019
    Dear Hoolie, Thank you for taking the time to write a review and I'm pleased the staff were happy and you liked the venue. Naturally it's disappointing to understand there were some issues with the sandwich choices and cakes. The chefs would happily make different flavoured sandwiches so please accept my apologies that this was not communicated correctly and the feedback will be passed onto the relevant managers. I hope to welcome you again. Best wishes Larissa Hardy Guest Relations Manager

    We went for the fish & chip supper and were very pleased, it was cooked to perfection with a lovely light crispy batter. Everything was really good and we will definitely be coming back with family and friends. The service was perfect and it was nice and quiet. We enjoyed it very much. Thanks to the staff & the chief.
