Good to Know

Alno Lounge is on Bondgate Within, in the middle of Alnwick, and it's part of the Lounges group, a chain of relaxed neighbourhood café-bars that started in Bristol. Alnwick is the group's most northerly branch, and the name is simply the River Aln with a Lounge-style "o" on the end.

It's open all day, from breakfast and coffee through lunch, dinner and drinks, with a long menu designed to cover most dietary requirements and a family-friendly feel, including free children's activities in some school holidays.

Why it's on our list: we usually lean towards independents, but an easy all-day spot in the centre of town, where everyone in the group can find something to eat, earns its place, particularly on busy days around Alnwick Castle and The Alnwick Garden.

A Little Note From Heather & Sand

We haven't quite made it here ourselves yet, but it's on our list!

We're working our way around Northumberland, personally visiting and reviewing as many of the places featured in our Listed section as we can. It's a tough job, but somebody has to do it.

In the meantime, we do our homework. Before adding somewhere to Heather & Sand, we research it, look at what other visitors have to say and check that it has a good reputation. If the feedback isn't encouraging, it generally doesn't make our list.

Of course, a little online research is no substitute for muddy boots, a decent coffee and seeing somewhere for ourselves. So until we've visited, we'll leave the personal review to one side.

A little about us...

Heather & Sand is our little corner of Northumberland — a collection of places, stories, walks and discoveries from a county we love.

Through our Journal, Guide and Listed pages, we hope to help you discover somewhere new, revisit an old favourite or simply enjoy a little Northumberland from wherever you happen to be.
