The Four Alls in Winchester

Top place love it here, music festival this Saturday 30th April

Poor quality food . Poor service was an understatement! Workers drinking and swearing asked waiter to speak to them never did . Definitely not returning

Highly Recommend The Four Alls - its such a pleasure to find friendly, helpful and professional staff who's main aim is to look after the customer and not make them feel as if they are doing you the favour - the way things should be

We booked a table for Sunday lunch as it was my daughter in law s birthday. We also had a toddler. The staff were amazing and so much fun to be around. The food was excellent, but it really was the service that made our day so special. They even brought in the cake I had made , candles lit and sang Happy Birthday . Great job we will be back xx

We visited this place for breakfast and ordered the Full English, which was fantastic! The portion was generous, and every item on the plate -especially the scrambled egg- was fresh and delicious. The staff, particularly Josh, James, and Rhys, were kind and friendly, making the experience even better. We’d definitely return and highly recommend it!

We were told there would be a 30-minute wait for our food, but we ended up waiting over 2 hours. When the pizza finally arrived, it was missing cheese. No apology or compensation was offered during the wait or upon serving the food. Only at the time of payment did someone thank us for our patience. While the food itself was tasty, the service was extremely slow and unprofessional. Disappointing experience overall.

If you’re thinking of coming here then definitely have a mind to order pizza. It’s great, proper stone baked base with delicious toppings. Avoid the beef Sunday lunch though as the beef seems like 70% fat and gristle which was very disappointing. Even the dog didn’t want it. Vegetables were nice though.

we had just come back from out holiday in Spain, so we thought we’d stop off at the local, big mistake!!! ordered the food, turned up with Parmesan cheese on after I said none !! and the chips with the fish and chips where disgusting, have taken pictures to prove this, my partner sat for 30 minutes with out a drink , as the waitress was too interested in the table next to us as she knew them . ordered tomato sauce massive pot I desert spoon !!! between 2 asked for another one waited 10 minutes for it, this pub is not a food pub !! more a drinks pub , I said we wasn’t happy with the food and fair enough we didn’t pay but that’s not the point!! don’t advertise tables @9:30 if the service and food are gonna be as awful as it was …. table was sticky when we sat down also.

Had an amazing evening out! The food was top-notch—both the Chicken Caesar Salad and the Harissa Chicken Burger were delicious and beautifully presented. The staff were absolutely brilliant, warm and funny, really adding to the atmosphere. Speed of service was good too, and I appreciated that they checked in for a second drink and offered dessert. Can't wait to come back for more great food and the lovely team!

Just the best Quality food and atmosphere and highly trained Staff you will find in England Set by the River Avon it’s geared up for everyone’s food

The most amazing and friendliest staff I've ever encountered in a pub.

Good food and helpful staff but service very slow

Sunny Saturday, no staff, very limited and pricey garden menu. No good if you just want a light bite as they don’t cater for that at lunchtime. Left without ordering, better elsewhere….

Didn't have anything to eat just sat alongside the river on a beautiful April day with a glass of wine. Splendid location though quite busy with people as it was Sunday.

Lovely food and ambience, can't wait to get outside when it's warmer

What’s happened to this lovely place? Came here for a celebratory birthday meal. Was shown to our table & drinks order taken….wrong drink arrived, then corrected…no apologies just put down in front of me & walked away! Food order taken and we waited & waited….eventually arrived after 40 minutes. Leaving one member of our party waiting longer than us. On eventual arrival Portion sizes have decreased from previous visits, fries were very salty & overcooked but other than that no problem. Then we sat again & waited & waited….another 15 minutes after finishing our meal I had to ask for our table to be cleared & for desert menus She cleared our table literally plate by plate back to the kitchen over 4 times! No offer of another drink order…at any time, no check on whether our food was ok. By the time desert arrived again the same party member was left waiting longer. Again no further drink order. We decided to leave and call in elsewhere on the way home for drinks. Although it was mentioned in my special requests on booking no effort was made to acknowledge the special birthday which was a shame. No personal service felt just arrive, eat (after a long wait!!) & leave!! Won’t be coming again sadly.

Nice steak but overall a little bland, nice atmosphere and fine for casual meal. I expect location would be better at lunchtime when can be by the river

Location couldn’t be faulted as sat in garden and ate. Food okay but nothing special - my pizza arrived and wasn’t hot. It had obviously been cooked early whilst my wife’s Harrissa chicken burger was still cooking. Wife said the burger was very dry. Would eat again there but will try something different. Service and atmosphere affected by waiter who dropped food and drinks for an adjacent table and could be heard to apologise profusely but then proceeded to swear to them self very loudly while walking back and forth several times cleaning up and bring replacement food and drinks. Same waiter also looked at me as if I was mad when I asked about the seating/table and if okay to sit there (there was a sign requesting you confirm if okay to sit down before you sit down). They also seemed confused when I asked for the table number as there wasn’t one on the table so couldn’t order the food at the bar. Bar staff made up for it though - couldn’t fault them.

The food coming out of the kitchen here is fantastic. We had the duck and the chicken parmo which were both really well cooked and very tasty. The atmosphere of the place and the welcome we received made the whole dining experience fantastic. Thanks for a great meal

Went their for Sunday dinner for my Mom's 86th birthday. Went at 3.00pm and when we came to order they had no Sunday dinners left!! Didn't tell us this when we arrived and we wasted 30 mins. They then didn't have half our substituted options and we had to wait another 40 mins. Have sat down at 3.00pm we started eating at 4.30pm. Never again and no apologies or money off!!! Really disappointed.

I wanted to say a big thank you to the staff for making our visit so special during a tough time. They struck the perfect balance between giving us space and being attentive, which was exactly what we needed. The food and drinks were spot on, and the whole place was clean and welcoming. I’m looking forward to coming back for more excellent meals in such a lovely setting! Highly recommend!

Such an amazing pub! Food was amazing and worth the money, the staff were so lovely and made us feel so welcome and all had a great sense of humor, we will definitely be back when it's warmer to sit outside :)

Delicious meal, lovely atmosphere and location beside the river Avon Thank you.

We came on a Thursday night and had amazing service from the start, Madison was lovely and made sure we had a great table and was very sweet, the food was amazing and well priced, great atmosphere and cute view outside over the canal.

Super place. Fantastic outdoor area, perfect for the warmer weather & kids. Great atmosphere, lovely food and friendly staff.

Friendly, good service and choices, warm atmosphere

Great place to stop for lunch. The staff were friendly and knew the menu. Food was good and we especially liked the fresh pesto on the smashed avocado. Good choice of wine and reasonable overall price.

My husband and I came last Sunday for the first time and had the most amazing food, we both had the chicken roast dinner which was cooked to perfection, I had the cinnamon apple crumble and my husband the cookie dough dessert both to die for,, followed by a black forest hot chocolate,, just lovely..staff were really friendly, spoke to us like they knew us, felt very comfortable will definitely be returning, thanks guys ❤️

Really enjoyed our meal here. Service was fantastic prawn arrabiata spaghetti was super delicious! Will be back 🥰🥰

Very poor Christmas meal . Food was bland , uninspired and thrown together . The pulled beef was so salty it was inedible. Roast potatoes reheated . Christmas pudding was tiny . No service - only one person said merry Christmas and no one came to take a drink order. Had to ask for plates to be taken away . £100 per heard plus a service charge - the absolute cheek. This place is complacent because it’s got a nice spot by the river in Welford , but the food quality and service is severely lacking. We came in 2020 for Xmas dinner and was disappointed but put it down to Covid. We were wrong . We live locally and will never return. Feedback not responded to either

Reece our server was brilliant. So attentive, kind and most importantly hilarious. Food was great, had a lovely view. Would definitely come again:

Love this place what a location, and a large field where you can park motorhomes, great food and brilliant selection of beers.

We had some thing off the specials . It was worth the money ! . Amazing thank you

Excellent food and surroundings steak/ fish and chips beautiful service charge added to bill but will go again

We visited The Four Alls between Christmas and New Year. We have been there a number of times and decided it was worth the 1 hour journey as they have a good selection of vegan options. On this occasion I ordered the Rigatoni Vegano and pointed to it on the menu “Al forno ? “ the waitress asked. “Yes. Vegano” I replied. I asked if it can be served without cheese as I don’t like vegan cheese. She checked with the kitchen and this was ok. My sister ordered exactly the same. When the meal arrived my sister checked “ is this the vegan dish?” The waitress replied “yes, without cheese”. We both happily started eating and immediately realised we were eating chicken. We called the waitress over and advised there was meat in the dish. She replied “you didn’t specify” we advised we had stated vegan 3 times. She apologised and said she would get the correct dish made for us. I became very distressed and went to the bathroom to be sick. I couldn’t stop crying -I have been vegan for 36 years. For me, this isn’t a fad, but part of my identity. I was too upset to return to the table so I left. I understand that the waitress apologised to my sister again and stated there was a mix up in the kitchen. And yet earlier she said we didn’t specify we wanted the vegan option (Rigatoni Calabrese and Rigatoni Vegano sound very different in my opinion and are listed as two separate dishes). We were also offered free drinks, as if that would have made things ok. This was not simply an incorrect order but a catastrophic error. Thank god this wasn’t an allergy as the consequences could have been life threatening. My sister and dad also decided to leave without eating as they were also very angry and upset. I am really disappointed with the Four Alls which is usually one of our favourite restaurants to visit. I understand mistakes can happen but the waitress did not listen and then lied to cover her mistake. I really hope the outcome of this is that the restaurant doesn’t remove vegan dishes from the menu, as this would be the laziest approach. I instead urge you to train your staff properly and ensure they take responsibility for their actions. I hope one day I’ll feel able to return to this establishment, but for now I remain too traumatised by the incident.

Second and last visit to this restaurant. Hugely overpriced and food quality poor, but the main issue is poor service. We were not the only table waiting for food or a drink or anything really. Just all round poor.

Best restaurant meal for ages! Great service, great staff, great food.

Delicious food, with a great menu for the whole family. Fab portion sizes for the prices. Staff friendly. Clean restaurant and toilets. Regularly visit the Four alls.

Daughter and I didn’t want to cook so we visited and as always everything was spot on! The menu choices were good and the meal was absolutely delicious, especially the porchetta, which came loaded with veggies. The service was super friendly right from the warm greeting to a lovely farewell. We know we can always count on great meals in a fantastic riverside setting here. Looking forward to my next visit!

I had an outstanding festive celebration at this venue! The food and drink were spot on, and the atmosphere felt extra special, just like I hoped it would. The staff greeted us warmly and were super attentive, even checking if we wanted a second drink. Everything ran smoothly, with our table ready and food arriving together. I can’t wait to come back for my 50th birthday in March!

Great food, great service and great value

My daughter took me here for my birthday. It was really lovely. Very welcoming, we were acknowledged by every member of staff, as we walked past. A very comfortable restaurant, relaxing, not rushed. Food and service brilliant. We will definitely go back.

So much better than it used to be .... . Well done guys

Lovely riverside restaurant well worth visiting

Me and my now husband booked The Four Alls for the 21st October 2024 as a place to have a meal after our registry wedding. Thoughout the booking process they were incrdibly helpful and adaptable as we had a dog that we would be bringing with us as part of our booking. They offered us a private room even though we were only a party of 7 people and we really appreciated all the care they took to make us feel comfortable. All the staff that we engaged with were so nice, friendly and very sweet about our wedding that had just take place. However, we have to give a special mention to Reece and James who were our servers for the evening. They were so incedibly amazing and really went above and beyond making it look like it was no bother to them at all! Everyone that was a part of our party said how lovely they were and they were always on hand to help us with anything we needed. In this day and age its so nice to see pepole in service that love to chat with people and really help them to enjoy their experience within an establishment. They were absolutley fantastic and so funny and caring to our dog as well. We must say the food was also incredible! as a group of 7 we ordered many different things off the menu to eat privatly and to share and everything (I truly mean everything) was fantastic! I would really reccomend this establishment! We'll be going back every year for our anniversary but I also hope we'll be back every so often to say hello to the wonderful staff and enjoy the delicious food! If you have not been you should make your booking ASAP!

Huge disappointment unfortunately… Kids starters took 1 hour and 15mins to arrive (these had to be chased) After another 20 mins we asked how long for the mains, we were then told they would be a minimum of 30 mins! By this point we had 3 very hungry children and decided to leave. Such a shame. Management staff nowhere to be seen!

Another great place for good food. 👍

Great service and great food (I recommend the beef steak). The atmosphere is also nice, with dimmed lights in the evening. During summer you can dine outside on the river bank.

Brilliant restaurant excellent service

Lovely setting on the river. Attractive building. Staff friendly and efficient. I think the chef is Italian so highly recommend pizza and pasta dishes. A real treat.

Excellent service and good here.

Very busy Sunday lunch, we never felt rushed. PTeam friendly & organised. Table ready on time, cold water put on table, drinks order taken once seated, meals arrived quickly, food was very good hot and delicious. Toilets were spotless, open kitchen so could see all. Ambience was relaxed. Highly recommend

Just had the most brilliant evening! Everything has really upped its game since I first started coming here. The food was top-notch — I absolutely loved the Casa Lingo Pizza and the 8oz Rump Steak. Both were spot on in terms of taste and presentation, plus the portion sizes were generous without breaking the bank. The service was fantastic too. The team greeted us warmly and knew the menu inside out, making it easy to choose. The atmosphere felt lively but relaxed, making it a great place to unwind. Cleanliness was on point, and I couldn't fault the speed of service. Can't wait to come back! Thanks for a lovely experience!

We went out here for my birthday meal the other day and had a wonderful experience. The wood-fired pizzas are so tasty and there's lots of choice. My husband had the sundae for dessert and it was lovely. There's lots of drinks choices, including an alcohol-free section. We sat inside with a river view, which was very picturesque and generally the inside and out of the place was very well designed The staff were fantastic. Our main server was a very pleasant and attentive young man, who was knowledgeable about the options available. We only tip when we've had good service so we did that day. Highly recommended 👌

We had a lovely brunch. Eggs Benedict excellent. Service wonderful. Will definitely return.

Great riverside venue. You never know William Shakespeare could have stopped for a beer here?

Nice friendly pub by the river seating outside too

££ above average but excellent food.

Would be lovely if they improved service! never improves and always sooooo slow! food is ok and the location and general appearance is lovely but the slow service just lets its down, have been many times over the years but it just never always disappointed when i get told this is location for a meet up now! you know it will be a long night! food is ok, could be better for price but no point improving food if never trying to improve on the service! needs new front of house manager to turn it around on speed of service front could be an outstanding place and a lot busier. if it was anywhere else it would have closed a long time ago! location keeps it going. never seen such slow front of house and food service! improve please?!! 🙏🏼

Our family enjoyed a fabulous Sunday lunch at the Four Alls last week to celebrate our father's birthday (not that he wanted anyone to mention it!). We were given a great table with plenty of room for us all, a party of 13. The food was beautifully cooked, and all requests were accommodated (some wanted no pink beef, others like it rare). The best thing was the service, which was very attentive, nothing forgotten, and the kids were treated like little adults, which they love. I didn't catch his name, but we really appreciated the service from our waiter. Even the weather decided to play ball, and we enjoyed a final drink out on the patio where the kids could watch ducks and boats on the river, while the adults planned Christmas!

family night out for my wife and family and our little dog toby staying at halls cottage weekly holiday absolutely brilliant would really recommend

My wife and I went today 08/09/2024 for Sunday lunch Absolutely perfect Food 10 Drinks 10 Speed of service 10 Could not fault and with quite a young service staff Fantastic

Really pleasant pub, bar staff super friendly and homemade pizza was delicious.....a little expensive but worth it, beautiful beer garden overlooking the river.

Great place, amazing view to the river and different settings. Large parking.

Disappointing Sunday lunch. We both had the beef. Overpriced for the food we got. First time we went was very good but we have been twice since and very disappointing. We won't be going again.

Popped in for half a pepsi and half a lemon and lime £7.40. I won't be popping in again.

Visited here today for breakfast. What a disappointment! The service was incredibly slow and disorganised. We initially waited 10 mins to be seated, and a further 20-25 mins before someone came to take our order for drinks-only (we had to prompt someone to come over). These took another 15-20 mins to arrive, and only after this time were we able to even order the actual breakfast. We asked how long it would take but the waiter didn’t know. This took a further 30 mins. When it arrived we asked to order some more drinks (1 coffee, and 2 x juices). These arrived well after all 5 of us had finished eating. Also, we had to prompt them for basics such as sauces, plus had to go to the bar to ask for spoons to mix the pot of tea/milk, get sugar etc. All basics when serving breakfast. If the restaurant was busy, we could understand it more, but it seemed really quiet. The breakfast itself was pretty average, though quite expensive (£87 for 3 adults and 2 children). That we wouldn’t object to had the service been acceptable. Such a shame as it’s a nice location and the breakfast menu looked appealing.

We just called in a drink . My partner hasn't been there for years ! Next time we visit we will stop for food . Nice greeting on arrival . Clean bar ,tables and toilets (always think that is important) and the food looked delicious !!

Lovely setting, nice atmosphere, live music and food was good. Good sized portions. Helpful staff. Pricey but isn't everywhere these days

This is easily one of the best meals we have all had for years!!! Amazing food! Amazing service! We were a party aged between 19 and 83….a really special venue! Thank you x

Excellent establishment to have superb food and drink whilst enjoying the pleasant surroundings.

Went on a Friday night, very busy noisey! Food good I found the drink expensive, one of our party had a pint £6.55, some of the puds were £9

Had a lovely lunch here as usual. Food is always good and excellent service.

Food good and looked after us well. Dianne Gale.

Lovely pub nice to sit out side by river drink also nice

A great Riverside location food was excellent very attentive and friendly staff we sat outside overlooking the picturesque river. A good range of real ales definitely visit again first class service and food

Wonderful, busy place by the beautiful River Avon in Welford. Busy but staff unhurried and efficient. Great food, good price.

Food was good and the staff very welcoming. Lovely table by the river.

Always a great time at the Four Alls. Lovely location, wonderful staff, lovely food, great atmosphere. Love it outside in the summer and cosied up by their log burner in the winter

Fantastic inside and outside. Staff very friendly.

The pizza was lovely. Had a pleasant visit sitting beside the river.

We ate dinner here last night and it was not good. Starters arrived like warm and before drinks. Main meal took 90 minutes to arrive and 4 out of 5 meals were poor. Sunday lunch, roast potatoes completely dry with a hard outer, they had sat in a warming tray for hours, carrot was mushy and soft and all Luke warm. I may have just been a bad day as we have eaten here before and it was good. Had it not been so late and the family very hungry, I would have sent every meal back due to quality with the exception of the pizza.

Lovely pub on the side of the river. Had a very nice shandy.

Great service. Superb location on a sunny evening by the River Avon. Food was spot on. A chance visit that ticked all the boxes.

Fantastic place to relax and enjoy gorgeous food in beautiful surroundings. We tried the sardines from the specials menu and they did not disappoint. They were amazing! The staff were so friendly and nothing was too much trouble. Amber and her team ticked all the boxes and this is why we regularly travel to visit our favourite restaurant.

Popped in without booking. Really nice food and surprised at the large size of the portions. Very good value and excellent staff service. Will be back soon!

Lunch on the terrace by the river, staff very polite and professional. Food was really nice, will definitely return

Fantastic location and warm and friendly staff.

It was very busy and understably service was a little slow. Roast beef a bit overcooked & sliced so thin a bit like a rasher ..but you can't beat sitting outside by the river.

Absolutely fantastic pub, with great food and excellent service. Lebanese twist on the menu, and the pizzas are also great.

very nice ,bar snacks, would return

So disappointed with the roast today. At £22 for roast beef, it came with one roast carrot, two very uncooked roast potatoes, a tiny portion of cabbage, one frozen Yorkshire and two pretty sad looking slices of beef. Admittedly setting is glorious. But for the price for a large party it should and could have been better.

Lovely location and good selection of food. Service was excellent until we came to pay. We were charged for another table at £50 more than our bill. It was a genuine mistake by the waitress but when I tired to sort it out the manager was rude and did not apologise once for the time it took to sort or the mistake. Such a shame as his attitude ruined my experience

Fantastic location, good service, and delicious food. What a lovely location for an early dinner. Outdoor seating is perfect in the summer months and recommend a spritz or two!

Had a fantastic experience here for my partners birthday. It was lovely. Every single member of staff was attentive and not over doing it at all. Atmosphere was lovely. Food was FANTASTIC. Highly recommend

If you are looking for good food, served by friendly staff plus a lovely view of the River Avon the 4 Alls has it all. The busy restaurant proves it is a popular local meeting point

Staying in Ovington for a week we called in for a quick drink and see what the pub was like before booking a table. I can honestly say we ha such a warm welcome from Dave and the regulars too. Two decent cask ales brewed not far away. The place itself it small but cosy and clean. We had a meal a few nights later and thoroughly enjoyed it. The menu was small but still hard to choose as we liked everything on it. The service was efficient and we were checked on that the food was alright. It is a small establishment so booking is advisable. We prefer not to dine with dogs around us and Dave explained he does try to keep the dog diners separate which he did the evening we were there. Not everyone likes dogs in restaurants and pubs. We had a lovely holiday in the area so fully intend to return and will be calling at The Four Alls again.

We hired the private function room for my daughter's 40th birthday and it was perfect. They delivered on all of their promises apart from the weather but that didn't dampen our event. It was everything I wanted and more. The venue, location, staff and food were all excellent. Wonderful! I had liased with Josh and Amber at the venue and Rory in HO and they all did a great job. Well done.

Birthday meal for 2 , really excellent food ,Pasta and burger, excellent service , we sat outside and there were just some signs of wear and tear that meant had to give 4 stars rather than 5 . we had not informed them was a birthday but the waitress overheard my grandson calling to wish me happy birthday while we were there. The manager came out to say happy birthday and gave me my dessert for free, what a thoughtful gesture and we will visit again soon as the food was so good !

Great place, very busy, which is a good sign. Thanks x
