Ordered takeaway for the first time. The portions were huge, honestly. Got the chicken curry and a side of rice, and there was enough left for a full lunch the next day. Food was tasty and felt proper home-style.

Been coming here for years. The coffee&#39;s always spot on, never had a bad cup. That&#39;s what keeps me coming back. The cakes are fresh too, but honestly, it&#39;s the coffee I&#39;m here for. Just a reliable place.

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.

Lunch set menu, three courses for &pound;23.50. Solid deal for the quality. Food came out quick, which is key for a midweek break. Jess was great, very efficient. Got me in and out in under an hour.

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.

The paneer dosa was spot on, really fresh. The rava one too, crispy and not greasy. You can tell they put effort into them. A bit on the pricy side, but you get what you pay for.

The Hour Glass is a charming, historic pub with a cozy atmosphere and friendly bar staff. It&#39;s a great spot for a pint and chat, especially on a Saturday lunchtime.

The sausage rolls were really fresh, you could tell the pastry was made that morning. For a busy seaside spot, that&#39;s a nice surprise. The filling was well-seasoned and not too heavy.

The pre-theatre menu was a lovely, fuss-free choice. The hake was delicious and the service was so friendly.

The ale selection is a real treat. Everything arrived piping hot, even through the app. Just a bit pricey for the portions, but the drinks are fairly priced.

Popped in for a full English while passing through. The bacon was spot on, eggs just runny enough. Staff were really friendly, which was a nice start to the day. Solid brekkie.

Nice little pub, feels like a proper student spot. The beer garden out the back is a real bonus, especially on a sunny evening. They seem to have a lot of themed nights, which keeps things lively.

Staff were quick to wipe the tables down, which was nice to see. The double cheeseburger was spot on.

A really nice spot for plant-based options. I had the vegan calzone, which was tasty and filling. The staff were so friendly, and the seating was comfortable - made for a relaxed lunch.

Went on a karaoke night with my friends, such a fun vibe! The staff were really friendly and it was the perfect spot for a casual catch-up. The music was a bit loud for chatting at our table, but we just moved closer to the bar. Would definitely go back for another karaoke session.

The staff were very friendly and helpful. The place is spotlessly clean, and service was quick. It&#39;s a decent spot for a straightforward meal.

The staff were so lovely. They had a good laugh with us, and one of them gave me a really nice compliment which was a sweet touch. Felt genuinely welcome from the moment we walked in.

The English breakfast was spot on. Sausages cooked just right, bacon crisp, and eggs creamy. Gintarė, the manager, was really helpful with our special request.

Really liked the Thai veggie burger here, loads of flavour and the chips were spot on. My friend&#39;s lasagne looked good too, nice cheesy top. Service was quick, which was a plus on a busy Friday. Ales were well-kept. Solid pub grub.

The hot chocolate was really rich, just how I like it. I went for the 70% option. The little piece of chocolate they serve with it was a nice surprise. The whole place has a cosy, quiet vibe that makes you want to linger.

The burger was cooked to order, not overdone. Good selection of toppings to customise. Solid choice for a quick business lunch near the office.
