About The Treehouse Restaurant

The Treehouse Restaurant sits within The Alnwick Garden, a modern British dining room reached by a wooden walkway and built with branches growing through the floor. A large fire sits in the middle of the room. The menu draws on local seasonal produce, with haggis and ravioli or haggis won tons to start, and a Sunday roast served with giant Yorkshire puddings and a child menu option alongside the main choices. Sticky toffee pudding appears as a recurring dessert. Seating is walk-in, and arriving guests, including those with a reservation, can expect to wait to be seated at busier times.

Customer Review Summary

Reviewers consistently describe the treehouse setting itself as the main draw, with the fire, wooden walkways, and fairy lit interior repeatedly called stunning and unique. Close behind, the Sunday roast draws strong praise, with the beef and lamb called succulent and the giant Yorkshire puddings singled out, while the sticky toffee pudding comes up again and again as a dessert highlight alongside haggis starters and a chicken honey mustard pie. Several also note the food is well priced for the portions and setting. Service is more mixed: multiple diners mention slow waits to order or get a dessert menu, and one describes service as patchy though friendly. One large party of ten reports a severely negative visit, with long waits, cold or undercooked food including raw scallops, and dishes sent back repeatedly. On a lighter note, one reviewer was moved to a second table after finding the first sticky, and another recalls staff working to find a table for their unbooked group and ensuring they had a good experience.

    “Had prior reservations months ahead done. Looking for a different experience, this is the place to go. Located in between greens, walking to it was beautiful. Food - Wonderful list on the menu to choose from. Each dish had ample portions. Fresh, warm and presentation just perfect. Deco and ambience just beautiful. Can't imagine how amazing it will look at Christmas. One downside - table we were given was sticky. Unsure if it was not cleaned properly or the cleaning product just leaves such a feeling. Was given a second table - grateful for this. However one side of it was still sticky. On the whole - definitely worth a visit when in the area.”

    “The perfect place to unwind and recharge for the week ahead! The Treehouse Restaurant is an absolute fairytale setting – it’s hard to believe it’s one of the largest treehouses in the world until you step inside and see the stunning woodwork and magical fairy lights. ​We came for the Sunday Roast, and it was pure comfort food. I had the beef, which was incredibly succulent, and my husband had the lamb – both were perfectly cooked and full of flavor. The giant Yorkshire puddings and crispy roast potatoes made it even better. ​Great food, unique atmosphere, and excellent service. The ultimate weekend reset! Highly recommend. 🌳🍽️✨”

    “This place is incredible from the outside to the inside. Design wise it's unique, so many lovely detail and touches, you can't help but fall for this charms They had some great menu choices, I went with the chicken, honey, mustard pie which was incredible. Plenty of other nice options for all tastes and preferences We did spend 5-10 minutes for someone to seat us but the service picked up from there. Who wouldn't want to visit a place like this, it's something out of Harry Potter! I'll be back in the near future :)”
