Popped in on the off chance and loved it. Staff were lovely and welcoming. We chose to sit upstairs. Great menu. Chose potted crab, gambi and some French fries. The good was delicious, the best crab we've ever had. We will definitely return. Thank you.

Lovely new place where The Riverside once was. Tastefully decorated to modern standards and nice and spacious, with a lovely seating area upstairs as well.Food was very good quality, cooked fresh. Menu is good and the prices are super reasonable too, so excellent value for money.Leanne who served us was warm, friendly and funny and clearly enjoys her job. Really excellent service - cannot fault at all!

I held a surprise Birthday Party for my Dad here in the upstairs room. Cliff and his staff couldn't have been more helpful from day 1. Nothing was too much trouble. They even put up the banners and balloons for us, as I couldn't with bringing my Dad there. The food was gorgeous. We had a buffet with curry. Rice and wedges, pork pies and sausage rolls, sandwiches, chicken drumsticks and spring rolls. It was so tasty. I'd highly recommend this place. Great selection of beers, lagers. Cocktails and ciders. Thank you so much.
