Visited yesterday and it's my 4th - 5th time here. Has a nice ambiance but can be a bit quiet. Service is very good. Was a little disappointed with my choice. I ordered the curry with chicken but there was not much chicken in it. My friend ordered the fish and chips but said the fish was not fresh ( like it had been frozen ) and it was the same last time they ordered it. I do like it here but would have to reconsider before visiting again or recommending for food...

We are regulars at The Alder so we weren't surprised that the Festive Afternoon Tea was fantastic. There was plenty of food, the layout was lovely and the staff are all fantastic.

1pm lunch booking. 2 courses. Almost empty and we weren’t served main course until 2.30pm. Starters were decent. My associates turkey & ham was decent. Table of 10 beside us returned theirs as cold . Mushroom risotto was awful. It obviously wasn’t stirred enough and was like sludge.
