Lovely stay. The room was cosy and well presented, with nice local toiletries. Food is cooked fresh to order, which was great. Staff were welcoming and the dog-friendly policy is a big plus. Just a note that the breakfast service can get a little slow when they&#39;re busy.

Had the sea bass and tiramisu in the conservatory. The glass ceiling and all the plants made it feel really airy and light, even though we were indoors. A nice spot for a relaxed meal.

The staff were lovely, and the place was spotless. I really appreciated how fresh the salad ingredients tasted - the greens were crisp and the tomatoes had real flavour. It&#39;s a simple spot, but they clearly care about what goes on the plate.

The chef really knows his stuff for gluten-free. Took the time to walk me through the whole menu, even knew where they source the ingredients. Most dishes can be made GF. Food was spot on, and the garden&#39;s a nice spot on a sunny day.

Cozy spot. The lamb combo was cooked fresh in front of us and paired nicely with a robust red. Good value for the quality.

Service was prompt and friendly. The beef chili had a good amount of chorizo and meat, flavourful. Decent portion. The view of the bay from the table was a plus. Solid spot for a quick business lunch.

The gluten-free fish and chips were a solid choice. The batter was crisp, not heavy at all, and the fish inside was moist. You really couldn&#39;t tell it was gluten-free, which is the main thing. Just a good, straightforward plate.

Been coming here for years, and the team&#39;s always so friendly. Even on a packed Saturday, they found us a spot without any fuss. That kind of consistent welcome is what keeps me coming back.

The vegan pasties were incredible, the pastry so flaky and buttery-tasting. Staff were lovely too. Honestly the best I&#39;ve tried.

Love that they&#39;re dog-friendly! Perfect spot to catch up with friends over a coffee and a bite. Prices are really good too.

The chips were spot on, soft inside and crispy out. Went well with a pint of their house lager. Portions are generous, food&#39;s always hot and fresh. Solid spot for a proper meal.

Great quick lunch spot. The aubergine and peanut curry with coconut rice was a real standout. Got it to go, ready in under 10 minutes. Perfect for a busy day.

Service was spot on. Sophie and the team were really helpful with the menu, knew their stuff. Made a big difference to the meal.

Lunch was lovely, but the chips really stole the show. Fresh, fluffy inside, and just the right crispness. Honestly, some of the best I&#39;ve had in ages. 😊

The breakfast was tasty. The eggs were cooked just right, the bacon crispy. Good portion for the price. Service was fine.

The Captain&#39;s breakfast was a proper treat, very generous. The scrambled eggs were just right, not too runny. Staff were lovely and attentive, which made for a relaxed morning.

The staff were so lovely, really made us feel welcome. They even brought a bowl of water and a little treat for our dog, which was a thoughtful gesture. The wine list had some interesting local options, though a few more by-the-glass choices would be nice.

Max is a gem. Always checking in, making sure you&#39;re looked after. He remembers what you like, which is a nice touch. My glass was never empty, felt like a proper local spot.

A nice spot with a decent buzz. The building itself is lovely and historic. The staff were friendly and knew a bit about the pub&#39;s past, which was a nice touch. Food was fine, though the service was a little slow.

Been here a few times now. The croissants are spot on, flaky and buttery. Sweet potato hash is solid too, simple but done right. It&rsquo;s the kind of place that just gets the basics.

Prices are so fair for the harbour views! The grilled fish was spot on, really fresh. Just a bit of a wait for the bill, but honestly, with that setting, I didn&#39;t mind too much.

Stopped in on a ride. Had a flat tire out front. A staff member actually brought my food out to me while I was fixing it. Really appreciated that. Quick and helpful.

The Sunday carvery is a solid deal. You get a good plateful with a few meat choices and all the veg. Gravy was spot on. I went for the beef and it was a decent portion for the price.
