The Bridge House and The Talbot are the same establishments. I am so glad that we decided to cancel out reservation in the Alton Towers Resort Restaurant and head out to this pub. The food was amazing, great atmosphere and service and nice to get away from the resort for an evening. The portion sizes were very big and worth the price!
Good food for an average price, very scenic outdoor seating which makes it very enjoyable. The indoor of the pub is well designed and has a cosy feel. This pub now seems to be owned by the same owner as the one next door, thus the only food served at lunch is from ‘the hatch’. Could do with some more bins in the seating areas to avoid people from littering. Outdoor seating is dog friendly and tables are well spread out. Staff are friendly, however it is basically self serve even for drinks.
Love the fries tasty and crispy also the fish chips, lasagna is a bit salty but delicious still. The environment is beautiful and cozy, but the food price is a bit high, we spent £37 for the fish chips and lasagna.
We were staying at Alton towers and the food there just wasn't cutting it for us so we ended up visiting this lovely pub for dinner. It was perfect. You can tell it's all home made and fresh. The food was very good quality and really good value for money. They have a huge grass area which is great for the kids. The setting and people were all lovely. We ended up going twice because we enjoyed it so much.
My friends and I went to the Talbot to avoid the Alton Towers food rush, we were welcome and well looked after by the governor Linden and entertained by the Cat cookie.
My friends and I cannot stress what a wonderful atmosphere this was, and how friendly the staff were.
The choice and knowledge of beers was exceptional and my friends and I cannot wait to return.
We would highly recommend this if you’re looking for a lovely bite, friendly atmosphere and great craft beer.

Stopped in for a coffee and toilet round 11:30 Sunday morning. Beautiful location, pub has great music playing low ceiling and fire place which creates an atmosphere.
Great walk along the disused railway line from Oakemoor.
Recommended.
Wow, I have been to Alton Towers hundreds of times and and never spotted this hidden gem. The location is perfect with a river, outdoor seating both in the sun and covered, with views of the castle, river and forests. Then there is indoor seating in a historic pub with retro styled booths, seating and ambience. The staff are happy, chatty and very attentive. The food was well priced, served quickly and very tasty. Great experience overall and definitely my favorite country retreat.
First time at this really lovely pub for a Sunday carvery in a really picturesque part of the county. Great service, lots of staff. Reasonably priced and good quality delicious food. Great selection of beer. Enjoyed it all sat in front of the toasty fire with our tired dogs. Will be back. Highly recommend
Beautiful old fashioned pub in Alton, food was delicious
Amazing food, friendly staff and great value for money. Stopped here after a day out and arrived just as the kitchen was closing. The staff made an exception, and we were so glad they did! Great roast. After a small mix up they even gave us complimentary homemade Yorkshire puddings which were very much appreciated!
Absolutely fantastic, staying here this weekend, great food and love the vintage deco with a modern twist in our room it is absolutely stunning ! Will be staying here always when we are visiting Alton towers or the area! Honestly what a stunning location. The gardens also so beautifully cared for. Would recommend here to everyone. Thank you the Talbot / Alton bridge 😀
Awesome place, staff friendly, parking no problem. The pizzas next door were amazing, highly recommended. If you go to Alton Towers, be sure to swing in and check out this place.
Dropped kids off at Alton Towers for the day and stopped off here to grab some breakfast. We were there as soon as it opened so the fires weren't yet lit and it was pretty cold. I wished I'd brought a coat with me. The food was good and it's a lovely, old pub with plenty of charm. Overall worth a visit but maybe bring a coat if you go for breakfast!
