Lunch was solid. Server Eloner was attentive, handled a birthday request efficiently. Food arrived promptly, tasted fine. Good for a business lunch near the office.

Friendly staff, decent buzz even on a Saturday night. Food arrived hot, which is a plus. The wine list had a few interesting local options that paired nicely with the steak. A solid spot if you care about the drinks.

The riverside garden is lovely. The outdoor heaters made it so cosy for a drink.

It gets packed on weekends, so be ready for a bit of a wait. The staff are doing their best to keep up though.

The staff were so friendly and attentive. They handled our large group with ease, and even prepared a special dish for a dietary need without any fuss. It made the whole evening very relaxed.

We ordered the grilled salmon for my birthday dinner. Loved how fresh the fish was, and the portion of greens on the side was generous. A nice, simple meal that felt good.

Came here for a quick lunch. The slow-cooked beef was spot on, really tender. Service was fast, which is what I needed. Got me in and out in no time. 👍

The fish and chips were spot on and the portions are huge for what you pay. Perfect for sharing with mates.

A decent pub near the harbour, always seems to have a good crowd of locals. We had the fish and chips, which was pretty good. The service was a bit slow, but the atmosphere made up for it.

Had a lovely dinner here. The scallops were spot on, and my wife&#39;s seabass looked great. Their wine list is surprisingly thoughtful for a neighbourhood spot - found a lovely white that went with everything. Menu&#39;s a bit overwhelming though, so many good choices!

Decent spot for a quick lunch in town. The service was prompt and staff were friendly. Parking was a bit tricky, but overall it&#39;s a solid choice for the price.

Friendly staff, no doubt. But the food really stood out. The steak was cooked exactly as ordered, and the sauce had a nice depth to it. Prices felt fair for the quality. A solid spot.

Been coming here for years, and the fish and chips are always spot on. It&#39;s my go-to after a walk in the park. The batter stays crispy, and the chips are proper. Just a reliable, no-fuss lunch.

Came for a birthday dinner. Staff were really nice, let us have the garden room for free which was a nice touch. BYO with no corkage is a big plus. Food was decent, but the steak was a bit over for my liking.

Jess was great with the kids. Super smiley and professional. Made the whole dinner way easier.

The Sunday roast was pretty good. Beef came out a nice pink, and the eight different veg were a pleasant touch. The place has a friendly feel, though the roast potatoes could have been a bit crispier.

Been coming here for years. Always grab a seat outside on the quay, watch the boats. Their daily catch is consistently fresh and simple. That&#39;s why I keep coming back.

Popped in for a late lunch with the family. The fish and chips were spot on. Mark was a great host, really welcoming. The house red was a decent, easy-drinking choice with the pie. Made for a relaxed end to the day.

The kids loved the indoor play area. Staff kept it very clean, and the wine list had some decent options to enjoy while they played.

Decent portions for the price. Had the chicken curry, plate was full. Good value for a proper sit-down meal.

The cream tea was the main reason I went. The scones were warm and clearly homemade, which was nice. But for the price, I expected a bit more clotted cream and jam on the side. The portion felt a little light.

Been coming here for years now. It&#39;s that reliable local pub you can always count on. The steak and ale pie is exactly the same as it was five years ago - proper, hearty, and never disappoints. That&#39;s why I keep going back.

Found this little cafe tucked away on a side street. The battered cod and chips was the real star for me. Fish was super fresh, and the batter was light and crispy, just how I like it. Portions are generous too. A solid, unpretentious meal.

The staff were so kind and patient with my daughter. It&#39;s a relief to find a place that makes dining out with little ones feel easy.

Nice little spot for a cuppa. They&#39;ve got a fun collection of teapots on the shelves. The cakes looked good, will try one next time.
