At Lovelady Shield House - Alston

Great food great service. Would recommend to anyone.

Great eating great service. would recommend everyone.

The food and atmosphere in this restaurant was absolutely great. The management and staff made it just a great evening. The flavours and the quality of the food were just brilliant.

Took my parents out for a treat as they had lived in the area for over 30 years and never been to Lovelady Shield. We decided to have the Bistro menu and there was a good selection to chose. Food was excellent from starter to dessert and everyone enjoyed it.

The restaurant itself could use some updates. The carpet was old and stained, and there were food splatters on the walls. Additionally, I noticed a food hygiene rating of 4 prominently displayed on the main window, but the details on the back dated back to 2015. According to the food hygiene ratings app on my phone, they actually had a rating of 2. This is something most people wouldn't notice unless they had experience working with a local council. I genuinely hope they improve their food standards and renovate the restaurant to create a more inviting atmosphere.
