The award winning Carriages restaurant is uniquely located within the allpay ltd campus in Whitestone Business Park, Hereford, and has been described as "City chic in rural Hereford".

Carriages was inspired by founder Tony Killeen's passion for trains and the quirky setting of the restaurant, which overlooks the old Whitestone railway station.

You can enjoy views of the rolling hills from the floor to ceiling windows in the top floor restaurant; dine inside or alfresco, on the spacious balcony, or walk the landscaped grounds surrounding the Four Seasons lake - which transforms into a maze of secret gardens, impressively lit up at night.

Carriages is open Friday and Saturday evenings.

For bookings over 6 and/or to book our free mini bus service, for use after dining, please call 01432 852303 or email carriages@allpay.net

Due to the nature of the restaurant, any children dining must be over 12 years old and accompanied by an adult.

Dress code is strictly Smart Casual.

    We have eaten at Carriages many times. Food and service has always been first class but our anniversary dinner last night was spectacular! The best butter poached lobster we have ever tasted followed by slow braised short rib of beef which was melt in your mouth good! We had enough room for a fabulous cheeseboard accompanied with Sandeman 20yr tawny port, all were absolutely delicious. To top the evening off we took advantage of the complimentary transport home made available to those living within 15 minutes of the restaurant which means you can enjoy a glass or two of the wonderful wines on the menu. The staff are so helpful and professional and Kelly the front of house manager is superb! We are already looking forward to another visit!

    This is a well designed space making for a lovely ambience. The food was beautifully served and cooked. Thoroughly enjoyed it and will return. Nice to see a wine list that is high on choice but not overmarked up. One slight niggle is we felt we could have had slightly more vegetables with our main courses.
    Carriages RestaurantResponded 2 days ago
    Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us! We’re so pleased you enjoyed the ambience and our thoughtfully curated wine list – it’s great to hear the variety and pricing hit the mark. We really appreciate your feedback about the vegetables and will pass this on to the kitchen team. We’re always looking for ways to improve and ensure our guests leave fully satisfied. We’re delighted to know you plan to return and look forward to welcoming you back for another lovely meal! Kind regards, The Team at Carriages
