We had a trip out for a lunch stop  at the Rose & Thistle  . All we can say is thank you for one of the best Sunday  lunch's we have had out in the long time. Simple great food the beef was perfection.
Great staff very attentive. As you have  just taken over I think you are going a great job , well done we will be back 

Sunday Lunch

Very friendly,excellent food,incredible views,highly recommended 👌 
Made to feel welcome from walking through the door to leaving,staff are very attentive,dog friendly, had meal in garden with some absolutely stunning views of the Northumberland Country Park, what's not to like 

First visit

Great little pub. Great location! Usually satisfies the necessary parts. After all we have been visiting the R&T for 55 years.  Yes! We are that old, and mine host would recognise at least two of us in our party yesterday 8th August.

Sadly though, our anticipation fell flat.   Middle of summer, lovely sunny day, and a reasonable number of walkers and visitors up the various valleys and up Clennel Street so the best hostelry in the area was closed during the day. Is business that good? If there are personal circumstances as opposed to a business decision then that is understandable. But this did happen to us once before, on a summer day on our infrequent ventures up the Coquet Valley.

We had to go to Clenell Hall instead and enjoy their delights. We will try and come back.

Great Pub - Best Around.

Stopped at the pub for the first time after a days hiking for a quick Sunday lunch. The pub itself is really nice and homely, with a good beer garden boasting amazing views. 
The lunch itself was average compared to all the other places I would normally eat. Broccoli was a bit over cooked and the roast potatoes were over done on one side (plate side down). 

Before the manager comments ‘why didn’t you say something while you were there’ as I’ve seen him do on other reviews which are less that very good. Firstly, I didn’t think it was worth complaining. I ate all my lunch, hence why I didn’t rate the place poor or terrible and then I would have been complaining. Secondly, this is a review site, designed for people to leave reviews - the good, bad and the ugly. Reviews should be taken constructively and not result in sarcastic or rude comments written in return.

Sunday lunch

Called in yesterday while out for a walk and thoroughly enjoyed the home made steak pie, my daughter had a baked potato.  
We sat outside, were there is ample seating and in this weather was perfect.
I think Colin J, last review needs to go to spec savers as the place was perfectly clean and tidy.  
I would recommend this place for food and drink, it is in my view a lovely pub.

Excellent service and food

Me and my wife were out meeting some friends for a walk but thought we would get to Alwinton early for a bite to eat and a drink. 
On first walking into the pub we saw it was quiet so thought service would of been rather fast. We ordered our drink and then looked at the food menu, the menu was dirty and had bits of food stuck to it but nevertheless we continued and ordered food. 
We took our seat at the table and the first thing what struck us both was how many dead flys there were on the windows and how greasy the surfaces were.
After about 15 minutes our cutlery was brought over and these also weren’t clean and whilst they were wrapped in a napkin the napkins had what appeared to be old food on them. Anyway we thought since we now had cutlery our food must be on the way, another 20 minutes past and still no sign of our food. At this point we knew that we were going to be late to meet up with our friends after waiting over 40 minutes for our food to turn up, we were the only ones to have ordered food after all. 
So we kindly said to the young lad behind bar we weren’t willing to wait any longer and to cancel our order. As we were walking up the street a staff member shouted to us come back we’ve got your food ready now but it was too late, why should it take us over 40 minutes of waiting and to walk out before someone acknowledged us. Needless to say I won’t be back!!

What a joke

Lovely pub. Great inside and out. Fantastic area. Guarranteed a warm welcome by a really nice landlord and landlady.. Great hand pulled ale. Lovely food. Would not hesitate to call in at any time for a quick or slow couple of pints and food if needed.

A must call in place even if only for a quick drink.

Great Inn very welcoming delicious food by Jane home cooked lovely breakfast. Garreth was a great host secured our motorbikes he was so helpful. Lovely room with fab views a great bar area and gardens. You dont get much better than this place. A magicial stay so peaceful.

Holiday

Gareth was a wonderful host. We loved the room, clean and comfortable, and the breakfast was excellent. All the staff we dealt with were friendly and helpful. Highly recommended. An ideal place for walkers, we were here 3 days and did amazing walks from the doorstep.

Excellent food and service in an idyllic spot.

This was a really nice pub to eat in and was in walking distance from where we were staying. We also had a well earned drink in the garden after walks on 2 occasions. The landlord was very friendly and welcoming.
