Great pub, lovely garden. The homemade pizza was a nice surprise and paired well with a crisp lager. Staff were friendly too.

Solid spot for a quick lunch. The chicken tikka masala was ready in under 10 minutes, which is perfect for my break. Good spice level, not too heavy. Portion was decent for the price. Just what you need when you&#39;re in a rush.

Generous portions, and the staff were really friendly.

Been coming here for years. Staff know their stuff, and they&#39;re friendly without hovering. Feels like a proper local spot.

The fish and chips are great, but the portion size for the price felt a bit small.

The Railway&#39;s a cosy pub, especially with the candles in the evening. Had the Thai green curry. The portion was generous for the price, really filled me up. Good spot for a hearty meal without breaking the bank.

Been coming here for years. The sauces are always spot on, and you can really taste the quality in the ingredients. It&#39;s just good, honest food. Staff know their stuff, which is nice.

Booked ahead and glad we did, it&#39;s a cosy spot that fills up quickly. The staff were really friendly and made sure we were comfortable throughout. A nice, relaxed meal without any fuss.

Steph and Miles have a solid menu. The vegan options are actually good, not just an afterthought. Tried the roasted cauliflower steak with tahini and pomegranate &ndash; the texture was spot on, not mushy. The flavours worked.

Nice spot for a quiet coffee in the park. The new decor is cosy and has a bit of character, which I like. Found a comfy armchair by the window &ndash; perfect for settling in with a book. The staff were friendly and left me to it. A good, relaxed place.

The staff&#39;s kindness was a real plus. Had a minor issue with my flat late one night, and they let me use their phone to sort it. Went above and beyond what you&#39;d expect.

Nice spot in the park for a quiet drink. Sat by the flowers, looking over the gardens. Perfect for a sunny evening.

The fish and chips are spot on every time. Love the crispy batter and the flaky cod inside.

Been here a few times. It&#39;s clean, plenty of space. The little touches are nice &ndash; they bring out hand wipes and a small dessert on the house. Makes you feel looked after.

The steak sandwich was cooked just right, good value for the price. Came here for a quick business lunch, service was efficient. It&#39;s a solid option if you&#39;re in the area and need something straightforward.

Burgers are the main event here. But don&#39;t sleep on the chicken tenders. They&#39;re solid. Got the loaded fries too, a decent quick bite. Everything came out fast, which is what I needed.

Delivery was super quick, food still piping hot. Portions are generous, and everything&#39;s clearly labelled in the box. Packaging&#39;s neat too.

Been coming here for years and the beef &amp; blue cheese sandwich is always spot on. Had it again last week in the courtyard with a glass of Malbec. Just a solid, reliable lunch.

Popped in for happy hour and the honey halloumi was a real find. Perfectly crispy outside, still soft inside, and that sweet-salty combo just worked. The space felt cosy for a quick stop. My Flirt cocktail was a bit too sweet for me, but that halloumi made up for it.

Cosy spot, and the table with the fire pit is a nice touch. The wine list had some interesting local options that paired well with the vibe.

Lovely spot by the docks for a relaxed lunch. The view of the water is so calming. My only small note is that the chairs were a bit hard for a long sit, but the friendly service made up for it.

The homemade potato bread at the start was the star for me. So fluffy and warm, with a hint of herbs. I ended up asking for a second basket! The rest was nice, but that bread really set a good mood.

Been coming here for years. It&#39;s always been a reliable spot for a quick bite after shopping at the Quays. The opening hours matching the mall are a lifesaver. Never had to worry about them being closed when I&#39;m done.

Busy spot but the service was quick and friendly. Sat outside, good vibe. Had the grilled fish, decent portion. Could hear the street noise but that&#39;s fine.

The fish and chips were spot on. Really liked how much space there was between the tables, made it feel relaxed.

Came for a sandwich and ended up staying for ages. The chicken pesto one was so fresh, with really good bread. Just a nice, easy spot to sit and chat.

Jordan was a great waiter, really knew his stuff with the wine list. Made picking a bottle to go with our meal easy.

Relaxed spot in the city centre. Had a flat white that was spot on - good crema, not bitter at all. Nice place to unwind with a proper coffee.

Had the fillet again last night. Cooked just right, so tender you barely need a knife. Flavour&#39;s always spot on here. A bit pricey, but you get what you pay for.
