The decor and atmosphere are really nice. However the food was bland and the menu unimaginative.
Perhaps Green King pubs could come up with a menu more befitting this pub? It was a bit of a let down.

Be aware this place has recently changed hands and is now a chain pub serving poor quality mass produced garbage food. I had the burger which the menu said was smashed on the grill but they were just cheap nasty burger patties that were not smashed.
Most High ratings for this place are from its previous life as a great smoke house.

we visited dirty bottles last year and found it nice, so without reading more up to date reviews (stupidly ) we visited again yesterday, it was disgusting, never have i been to a place that has changed so much in 6 months, the food was slop, the scampi i ordered wasn't even cooked properly and when pressed it was full of water, its not my thing leaving poor reviews but if you want food in Alnwick keep away from this awful place.

Went for drinks with family and friends after an event in Alnwick Market Place last night 28/02/2025.
Great atmosphere with fantastic service at the bar. Friends ordered on their app and purchased some food and drinks. Drinks delivered to our table with great service and a smile.
Food arrived around 20-30 minutes later. Great portions of salt n chilli chicken goujons, rosemary sea salted fries and a chicken shawarma flatbread. My children seen theses arrive and instantly wanted food 🤣 they opted for a portions of chips and a larva cookie 😋
Cocktails were amazing and full of flavour, food was delicious, full of flavour and a fully packed flatbread with loads of chicken.
Great menu choices and even a special lunch menu Mon - sat 12-5 where you can get a paninni, chips and drink for £8.95 😍
We'll definitely be back for drinks and proper food soon.
Have to say Brooke who served us was amazing, she was very friendly had a huge smile and made sure everything was ok with the food and drinks purchased. Great customer service all round

Really enjoyed our recent visit to The Dirty Bottles, there was lots of choice for all the family and we all enjoyed our food. Although there has been recent changes, there is still a lovely atmosphere and brilliant service from the team.

Have been to the bottles twice now for food. Great value for the money. Can’t wait to try out the breakfast. Staff are amazing.

Lovely, baby friendly wonderful menu
*update since being taken over*
Disappointing..... the food is nothing like what it used to be! My food was cold and had a hair in, which the waitress quickly took away and brought out a fresh piping hot one but still... no offer of a refund or gesture.
The food i would say is now very basic and definitely doesn't feel like a treat.
Kids meal is a fantastic price, tomato pizza which can only be described as a Chicago townnpizza defrosted, with cold garlic bread and cold peas...... but for 3.99 a bargin but wasted money!

Lovely staff and inside of the pub. However, it’s now recently been taken over by Greene King and the food menu has gone from home cooked quality to deep fried, mass produced Wetherspoon type food. Such a shame. Be warned!

Called here for a drink after visiting the gardens, decided to eat as our kids were hungry and the food was great! The staff were super friendly and couldn’t do enough for you! Would definitely recommend!

Had a meal there today. A group of 6 that was booked in. Arrived on time and told that there would be a slight delay on food but they can get us started with drinks. We then sat there for 10 minutes waiting for someone to come over and take our order. But then realised we had to go bar to ourselves. We waited 50 minutes for food to arrive. We got given complimentary deserts after complaining about waiting so long. But when they brought deserts over they realised they hadn't removed the plates which had our mains on but was finished. Been to the dirty bottles before it's been taken over and prefer the old pub. Food was slightly above average

Visited after hearing good things previously. However on this visit the food was terrible.
Had mixed grill, everything was overcooked and chewy. Sausages almost inedible. Would not revisit.

Bring back the old menu. New menu simply not as good. Many items in the new menu not available. Disappointed!

This is a random amazing review from last summer as we keep talking about coming back to this place but I never gave my good review!! We can’t stop thinking about these hanging kebabs with prawns and chips and are desperate for another trip to Alnwick just to eat here lol.
The combination of this and the Alnwick Icecream Parlour down the road is a top tier evening!

Not at all what I expected from the Rough Guide which conjured up an image of a homely, real ale haven but likeable nevertheless as a major pub grub joint serving excellent value bitter (Alnwick ale a delight). Bit like an upmarket Spoons. Not a huge fan of Greene King but this place hit the mark ok.

Stayed in the lodge, spotlessly clean, in need of paintwork redone in some areas as paint coming off the walls. Staff are friendly and helpful, had eve ING meal on first night, would not eat there again as the meat wasn't hot was tasteless and fatty, as were the chips, chose nachos as starter and it was terrible.

What a lovely place! The bar and restaurant are both beautifully presented. The rooms are thoughtfully put together to be comfortable and to have their own unique charm. The staff were welcoming and friendly.
I would like to especially thank Lisa who went out of her way to help me get a document printed and find a quiet corner to complete a work meeting. Thanks Lisa!
