Being from the US specifically Nevada where we have some of the most amazing restaurants. Alston was probably one of the better steakhouses I have been to. I specifically had the bone-in ribeye aka Cote De Boeuf and it will go down as a top 5 Bone on rib eye. We also ordered the mushrooms and they were awesome. In addition had the mashed potatoes and they were rock solid. Truth be told while I was glad the restaurant wasn't busy being a owner of a business I was actually disappointed it wasn't busy because the food was great. I would highly recommend giving this a try and I do not think you will be disappointed. Cheers
I just want to say that the Sunday roast has a timing window: I was told it wasn't available after 6 PM, but nowhere on the online menu (via Google Maps or Alston's official website) says this. To anyone coming to this restaurant from abroad like myself, take precautions and get here early if you want the Sunday roast. Other than that, there was nothing wrong with my meal: the steak was cooked excellently and the medium rare is impeccable quite possibly the best medium rare I've ever seen.
8 of us went to the Gin masterclass and had a fantastic afternoon. The selection of the 6 tasting gins followed a clever path linking each to the next and our host was superbly knowledgeable about gin, the background of each selected gin and similar gins. The pace was just right and we had time to enjoy a cocktail at the end. Our group was a mix of gin fans and novices and all had a great time, none had been to Alston before but all will be back.
Had a drinks at the bar and dinner and it was great. Lots of gin and interesting cocktails. It is located just inside the train terminal and is underground and has a speakeasy vibe to it. Reservations are recomemded

The Sunday Roast was absolutely delicious; the beef in particular was full of flavour. Super friendly service from both Lesley and Tiff. Will definitely be back!
Steak and frites Tuesday today The steak tastes good but not as tender as I wish Fries (chips) are crispy and soft in centre, not too salty at all.
For a lot of cities, to find a great meal, you have to get out of the city centre - away from the touristy bits - and into the heart of the city.
Disappointed I didn’t find this restaurant sooner, will be a regular from now on. Very reasonably priced despite cocktails consumed and wine too.
