The fish was lovely and fresh. Skin had a nice crisp. I asked for the tagliatelle without the chillies, and the sauce was still warm and flavourful. Appreciated that they could adjust it easily.

Popped in for a quick bite. The staff were really chatty, which was nice. Felt like hanging out at a mate&#39;s place more than a proper restaurant. Food was decent, nothing fancy.

Portions are huge for what you pay, pretty standard around here. Got the steak and chips, couldn&#39;t finish it all. Good value, no question.

Nice, cosy pub after a long hike. The steak and ale pie was the highlight for me &ndash; proper flaky pastry and the beef was really tender. The mash was creamy too. Staff were lovely and quick. Just what we needed.

Been coming here for years. The food&#39;s always spot on - simple, but they get the flavours right. It&#39;s just a proper, no-fuss local pub.

Decent food for the price. The grilled chicken was actually really good - juicy and with a nice char. I&#39;d come back just for that.

It&#39;s a handy spot just a short walk from the station, perfect for a bite before your train. The food was pretty good, decent portions for the price. Service was fine, though a little slow that evening.

Been coming here for years. The set menu&#39;s a solid deal. I usually get the leggera pizza with salad, it&#39;s a nice lighter option. Always tasty, service is quick and friendly.

Came here for New Year&#39;s Eve. They started us off with a glass of prosecco, which was a lovely touch. The tables had a good spread of meats and cheeses to nibble on. It was a relaxed, friendly evening - the karaoke was fun without being too loud or overwhelming.

Been here a few times now. The sausages are always spot on, not greasy at all. Pizzas are solid, simple, and just what you want. Staff are friendly, place is relaxed. Good for a straightforward meal.

Great spot for a sunny afternoon! The outdoor seating at the back was lovely, and the little play area kept my friend&#39;s toddler happy for ages. We just had drinks, but the garden felt really relaxed.

The food arrived steaming hot, which I really appreciated. You can tell the ingredients are fresh. Portions are generous for the price. A solid choice if you&#39;re watching your budget but still want a decent meal.

A reliable takeaway spot for us. The portions are generous, easily two meals. Flavours are pretty good.

The service was really nice and friendly. It&#39;s a good change from all the fried food places around here.

Been coming here for years, and the carvery&#39;s always spot on. The turkey&#39;s never dry, and the Yorkshire puddings are always generous. It&#39;s that consistency that keeps me coming back.

Nice spot for a special dinner. The view over the river is lovely. Food was pretty good, especially the sea bass. A bit on the pricey side, but the service was attentive.

Ate in the restaurant side, very calm. What stood out was the freshness of the ingredients in my salad. The greens were crisp, the vegetables tasted like they were just picked. A simple thing, but it makes a difference for a healthy meal.

Nice spot at the end of the pier. The fish and chips are fresh and you get a good portion for the price.

Great vibe with the live guitarist playing rock tunes. Ended up staying for an extra round.

Interesting menu with loads of choice. The &#39;build your own&#39; sharing plates were a fun idea. My table went for the grilled halloumi and the lamb skewers, both solid. The flatbread was a bit dry though. Still, a good spot for a casual group meal.

Popped in for a late lunch. The omelette was spot on, fluffy and cheesy. Coffee was decent. Staff were really welcoming, which was nice after a long morning. Handy they have parking out back.

Stumbled upon this spot on a walk. The cheese and onion pie was really good, and the price was decent.

Came here for a quick coffee and ended up staying for a steak. The beef was cooked just right, really tasty. But honestly, for the portion size, the price felt a bit steep. Good spot, but you&#39;re paying for the location.

The Thai sweet potato soup was the standout for me. Really creamy with a nice kick of spice, perfect for a chilly day. The menu&#39;s got a lot going on, but I&#39;d probably just come back for that soup again.
