Allotment Bar & Restaurant - Birkdale

Our order came out wrong, but the food was lovely and they discounted our bill due to the mistake.

Great atmosphere lovely place and great live music. Defo return

We had quite a long wait for our food due to a mix up. (We waited over an hour). To be fair one of the staff was very apologetic and we were offered a free desert or coffee

Food was good and the atmosphere and the entertainment was great

Excellent service and at a reasonable price for a mid week menu

We had lunch at the Allotment on Saturday with mixed results. The service was fine but they couldn’t take card payments so were sending people away to get cash. Which was a bit inconvenient. I then ordered the fish finger buttie, but was very disappointed. The bread was past its best and going hard, and there was virtually no fish within the thick thick battered goujons. I was left feeling quite queasy. My friend ordered the burger though and happy with her order. Not somewhere I’ll be returning to that’s for sure.

Great food , great service and a lovely atmosphere with live music.

Poor service and poor food! It’s been like this since the day they opened, there is obviously no training for the staff. We waited 20 minutes until anybody came to our table, don’t think they have a chef!

Good value good service fell sorry for staff with upstairs

Brill place, great food, amazing staff. Would def go back

Never had such slow service and was t busy tbh disappointed

Staff were pleasant and helpful. The atmosphere and decor is lovely. Good choice of food on the menu at a reasonable price, and the food ordered was delicious. Service was great too.A lovely lunch. Thanks

The food we did have was amazing and the waiter was very attentive. Our only gripe was that when we asked for the dessert menu we were told they weren't serving desserts that night only to see several other tables receive their desserts about 20mins later, so we popped down to the local Sainsbury's and bought our own ice creams instead.

Fantastic atmosphere, friendly staff, great food & live music. Travelled from Wigan on recommendation and wasn’t disappointed. Will be there again

I booked via the website which went smoothly but following it up with a phone call as I wanted a booth as it was a special occasion, the lady offered me the vault but I said not as wanted not to be enclosed. When we arrived, we were seated in the vault! We ordered our food and waited 50 minutes for it to be served. The lady who served us was very nice though. The food was just ok, nothing special. All seven people in the party said they would not return. A disappointing evening for what was meant to be a very special occasion.

Food was lovely.. Service very slow.. Drinks order was wrong

Food was amazing, service was slow once we'd eaten. A second drinks order was forgotten and I had to re ask for it. The empty plates were sat on the table a long time after we'd eaten and if someone had come round we'd have ordered another drink. In the end I went down to order us both a drink and ask for the dessert menu. Like I say the food was delicious!!!!

Great food great staff great atmosphere ( live band were amazing ) Very busy but excellent service whole evening 😊

Had to go and find someone to take our order after waiting a long time. Food was very good and the chef did come and apologise for the delay, caused by a member of staff not turning up. A very buzzing place.

Lovely place lovely food lovely staff lovely drinks what more could you ask for

Service was good; quick and friendly. Food very good. Nice atmosphere with good live singer that could enjoy whilst having a conversation. First time eating here would come again

Food was good, the singer got louder and louder as the evening went on. Killed conversation

Lovely food, massive burgers, great singer, helpful staff what more can you want

The service was excellent, food was super tasty, well presented and portion size generous. They also had a singer on who was fantastic, so an all round fabulous place which I cannot wait to return too. Thank you

Excellent food, gorgeous cocktails, fabulous service. Thanks so much! X

Service was poor overall and extremely disappointing as it was a special occasion for two of my friends.

Enjoyed cocktails and food with my mum and daughter. Nice relaxed atmosphere and delicious food. Good vegetarian selection

Great place, great staff. Little slow service but it was busy...

Fantastic food and service I would highly recommend! Upbeat atmosphere too!

Fantastic food, excellent value for money, staff very friendly. Dogs welcome downstairs 👍❤️

We went on a bank holiday Saturday in May and had nice food , a great table upstairs but with a view of downstairs, there was live music as it was Saturday so really enjoyed it all and would recommend

Sevice wasn't great, received the wrong drink. Coffee luke warm food ok, nothing special.

Lovely place nice atmosphere. Small plates were lovely. Would definitely visit again.

Lovely bar, fab service, enormous portions, no room for dessert sadly!!! 😋

We booked Allotment for our end of season badminton meal. Due to the size of the party we were able to use the vault which was a lovely room with a great atmosphere. There was a singer on that evening as well which really added to the ambiance! The food was incredible and everyone enjoyed their meals. Huge portions! I had a the panko Fried Chicken Burger thinking it would be a chicken breast southern fried style and the burger itself was enormous! Very tasty! Cracking evening! Can not thank Elysse enough for all her help! Staff were extremely friendly

Have eaten here a good few times but yesterday it felt a bit different - very very quiet with only a handful of other diners - food was ok but not stunning - shame the pumps where not working for beers. Service was ok but to say there where more staff than diners service it was not top notch and the place felt hollow and unloved. Won’t be our 1st choice in the area again.

Food wasn’t the best I ordered the duck and I must of got all the burnt crispy pieces very poor can’t believe they let it go out it should of been put in the bin very dissappointed

Food good. Service terrible. Too expensive . Wont go back

Friendly and helpful staff Lovely ambience with live music Food was lovely Will be back !

We went to hear the jazz. fantastic!! Will be back on jazz nights.

Poor service. Waited a long time to be served. Food good

The outside area was a mess with full ashtrays and dirty tables. The list of unavailable dishes was longer than what was left. Hopeless.

Teapot cocktails are a great thirst quenching option. The starters we chose were larger than expected and with small plates to follow enabled us to try a variety of dishes. Nice for social eating.

Superb service and food. Second to none, best experience in the area A*

Lovely to sit outside on a sunny day! Bar staff friendly and helpful. Goats cheese and beetroot ciabatta disapointing- hard, bread with 3 small pieces of cheese on top!

Value for money delicious food and a nice spot inside and outside.

It was my little boys birthday so we And with his grandparents, we lived the decor, the food was beautifully presented and the wait staff lovely... we will definitely be back

Great setting, live music was a little loud but other than was great evening

We had a great meal for out anniversary at The Allotment, very tasty, great portions - we will be going again.
