I have had some previous really good experiences with Allards before tonight, so I was very disappointed in the changes. On entering, my friend had asked if it was possible to turn just one of the 2 large TVs off, we are both autistic and she explained we have visual processing difficulties so it 's difficult to communicate with the additional stimulus. She also pointed out that nobody was actually watching them (apart from him, we noticed later) and was told that both TVs have to stay on because they 'paid a lot to have it installed. ' After ordering food, I walked upstairs to the ladies and the same staff member was walking down them. The lighting up the stairs was so dim that I hadn 't se...
Decided to go to Allards to celebrate our 41st wedding anniversary and it didn’t disappoint! We were greeted immediately on arrival by the lovely Jamie. She took our drinks order straight away, returned with the food menus and swiftly followed by delivering the drinks (a lovely Margarita for me..well it was a special occasion! She gave us time to select our tapas and when they arrived they were delicious, gamba pils pils, croquettes, baked Camembert and spiced lamb plus loads of lovely toasted bread for dipping. Jamie is a credit to the restaurant, so friendly and efficient. We’ll done lass!
Came across Allard's on Fish Quay by accident and because it was Wednesday they had their fabulous deal on: 4 tapas 2 glasses wine for less than 25 pounds! The mussels in thai sauce were particularly delicious and the meatballs and chicken in salt and chili very nice. Would have something different to the paella next time though. We were looked after by the charming Jeannie, who was so sweet! We had a lovely chat with her! They also have this deal on Monday-Friday up till 5pm. The music was also pleasant. I'd definitely recommend this branch of Allard's.
We held our wedding reception at this restaurant and Cliff and his team were fantastic from the moment we booked until the night of the event. We had a wonderful time and the two bartenders were exceptional. The food was also amazing thanks to the chefs. I would highly recommend booking an event here, or even just stopping by for a bite to eat and a drink! Thank you so much xx

I went to this restaurant on a Saturday night for a party. Just a heads up, they stop taking orders at 11 o'clock even though they are open until 1 am. I think it's a ridiculous policy. Nobody wants to sit around for 2 hours without a drink or music. It would be fine if they announced last orders so we could buy a few more drinks, but unfortunately they don't.
Went for breakfast on a Sunday morning. Not going to go into massive detail but the sausages had been cooked prior and warmed. The bacon was the same. Not sure how a restaurant is reheating food like that for breakfast. There was 2 tables and two waiting staff. The place was a shadow of how it used to be. Really poor all around.
Spur of the moment trip out and decided on Allards, very glad we did. Food was impressive, the Thai style mussels were unlike anything I've had before, paella and meatballs were fantastic aswell. Serving staff were attentive and easy-going, Bahama Mamma cocktail was the perfect mix of sweet and punchy, will definitely be back!
I can't speak to the quality of the food, but the cocktails and shots at this restaurant were amazing. The atmosphere was brilliant and the staff were incredibly friendly. Next time, we'll make sure to try some of their food.
