Been ordering from here for years. The crispy chilli beef is always spot on, never greasy. Portions are decent for the price. It&#39;s my go-to when I can&#39;t be bothered cooking.

Service was efficient and the staff were polite. The place runs smoothly, which is what I look for during a business lunch. No fuss, just got the job done.

The deck&#39;s river view is nice, but the food is what sticks with you. Had the grilled salmon a couple times over a few days. It&#39;s cooked just right, skin crisp, flesh still moist. Simple, but they get it right.

The pizza&#39;s definitely fresh and tasty, a solid choice for a quick bite. The space itself is a bit tight though, tables are quite close together.

Food was good, no complaints there. But the service was a bit hit or miss. Waited a while for our order, and they brought the wrong starter. Could be smoother.

The poppadoms are the best I&#39;ve had. They&#39;re light, perfectly crisp, and the mango chutney that comes with them has a great balance of sweet and tangy. The rest of the food was solid, but those poppadoms are the reason I&#39;d go back.

Decent Chinese buffet. They cook in small batches, so the food stays hot and fresh. Good variety. Solid value for money, nothing fancy but does the job.

The portion sizes here are huge, you definitely get your money&#39;s worth. Food came out fast, which was nice. The quality is solid for the price you pay.

Came in for lunch, the place is spotless and really spacious. Felt relaxed right away, like a proper restaurant but also kind of homely. Just what I needed mid-week.

The char siew chow mein here was a real surprise. Noodles had a great texture, not soggy at all, and the pork was nicely caramelised. The king prawn fried rice was solid too. Honestly went in with low expectations, but they&#39;ve got the basics right.

The fish and chips were spot on, but honestly, the best part was the big, shared table. Perfect for a casual catch-up with a group. We ended up ordering a pizza too, which was a nice surprise on the menu.

The fish and chips were pretty good. The batter was crispy and not greasy, which is always a plus. It&#39;s a family-run place with a decent menu and fair prices. A solid choice for a casual meal.

Been coming here for years. The wood fire in the corner is always going, makes the whole place feel cosy. It&#39;s just a really consistent spot to unwind.

The burgers are really good, juicy and cooked just right. The beer list is solid too. But what stood out was the vibe - the lighting was soft, and the wooden tables felt nice and sturdy. Just a comfortable spot to unwind.

Lovely spot for a quiet coffee. The outside seating is perfect when it&#39;s sunny, and they&#39;re so welcoming to dogs. Staff are friendly without being overbearing. Just a really warm, relaxed vibe.

Been coming here for years. The upstairs dining area is always spotless and feels cosy, perfect for a quiet meal. Staff are friendly without being over the top. Just a reliable local spot.

The gin list is huge, and the wine wall is actually affordable. Felt quite fancy but still cosy, just right for a quiet drink.

The vegan fish and chips are really good. The staff were so friendly, which made the whole visit very comfortable.

Dog-friendly spot with board games. The pizzas looked huge and tasty, even though I didn&#39;t order one.

Really nice meal, everything looked lovely on the plate. The staff were so pleasant and made sure we had everything we needed without being overbearing. It&#39;s the kind of place where you can just relax and enjoy your dinner.

Nice spot if you&#39;re bringing a dog. They handled our big group with several pets pretty well. The outdoor area was fine for them. Food was decent, though a bit on the pricey side.

Had the Sunday roast here. The beef portion was huge, honestly couldn&#39;t finish it all. They boxed up the leftovers for us, which was a nice touch. For the price, you definitely get a lot.

Late night takeaway is the only reason I come here. The chicken katsu curry is solid. The sauce has a decent depth of flavour and the cutlet stays crispy even in the box. A bit more rice would be nice, but it hits the spot when you&#39;re starving at 1am.

Staff are friendly, owner often cooks himself. He accommodated a last-minute request to adjust a dish&#39;s spice level, which was appreciated. Service was responsive without being intrusive. A solid, no-fuss experience.
