The Wallow

Love love love it! Went in the first time this week, I’d never heard of it but it came up on Google maps as a bar near the restaurant me and my partner were eating at. From the moment we entered the staff were lovely. The bar is comfortable but stylishly decorated with two floors of seating. Ofc the interesting concept of the restaurant is the self service aspect where you can add money onto a card and fill up your own glasses from a selection of wine in their machines. But if you’re not ready off that kind of commitment (which we weren’t) they have a wonderful selection of wines from the bar which are reasonably priced. They also offer food which we didn’t try but a nice touch.

Had such an amazing time at The Wallow for my birthday tonight! My partner and I were greeted by Kyla on the door who talked us through the dining process and asked our wine preferences, before proceeding to provide recommendations based on what we’d given and offering her own favourites for us to consider which was lovely! Nadine served us and was absolutely brilliant, made sure we were comfortable and enjoying ourselves for every step of our dinner and had some lovely friendly chat with myself and my partner, and took some great pictures to commemorate the night as well! Got given a free glass of champagne to top it all off! Amazing venue with brilliant staff and a gorgeous selection of food and wines, 10/10 will be back again! 💃🏼

We stopped and chilled here on a wet afternoon. Rather than have the multiple wine option we had the one bottle. We really enjoyed the experience and, probably next time will go for the multiple wine option. We didn’t eat, but we saw the food served to the people on the next table, and it looked delicious, they didn’t leave a crumb!! Definitely worth a visit, it’s a lovely place to sit, relax, chat and chill.

Went with my friend and we had never been before, as soon as you walk in the decor and details hit you with WOW. Laura was our server and was so helpful. She showed us how to use the card for the wine and gave us tips on what to try. She clearly knows her stuff. It seemed to run smoothly as there were 3 floors, 3 sections for servers to attend so people wouldn't be forgotten. We were always checked on, and when we got out Wallow board with extra bits...we had the best time. The food was amazing. The smoked salmon was the best I'd ever had,the mushroom paté was creamy and flavourful. The only thing I'd say was the salad wasn't needed 😅 cheese, wine and meat, and I'm set.

A perfect lunch with my wife and our dog! The chap that greeted us was epic, giving a great explanation of the great wine setup (pay as you go card and vending machines, with some wonderful and interesting options from small vineyards). We had the recommended Wallow Board for 2 and loved it all. Highly recommend the crab terrine too, separate order. High five Wallow!

A unique idea for a self service wine bar. Lovely warm and welcoming atmosphere and super friendly, helpful staff. To get wine, you are given a card when you arrive which you top up with money (note this is non-refundable but the card stays valid for a year). You go up to the machine, place card in slot at top, grab a glass to place under the spout and then press and hold your selection until it fills your glass. The food was incredible too and great value as you get so much for your money. A great place to go and I will definitely be back
