The messy burger is consistently good, I order it often. The modern interior is clean and simple.

The set-price buffet is a solid deal. Loved watching the chefs cook the noodles fresh to order right in front of you. Left feeling completely full.

Plenty of seats inside and on the terrace, which is nice. Came for a solo coffee and ended up staying for a couple of hours to get some work done. The large latte was a bit pricey for the size, though.

The hot and sour soup was just right, not too fiery. The satay and soupy noodles were good, but the duck was a bit dry for my taste.

The loaded fries with steak were a proper feed. The chips were crispy, the steak bits were tender, and the whole thing was just a bit messy in the best way. My dog was chuffed with his free sausage too. Solid spot.

Came here for a quiet lunch. The wine list was decent, a few nice options. Service was good, they left us to it which was nice. Just felt the prices were a bit steep for a weekday lunch, especially in the off-season.

Booked for nine last minute on a Friday, and they squeezed us in. The portions were huge, everything tasted fresh. Staff were really friendly. Made for a nice birthday dinner.

Don&#39;t let the plain front put you off. The chips were spot on - crispy outside, fluffy inside, and clearly just cooked. That&#39;s what I came for. The rest of the meal was fresh, simple, and hit the spot.

Nice spot with a friendly vibe. The staff were welcoming and even gave my dog a treat, which was a thoughtful touch.

Stopped by for fish and chips. The haddock was spot on, really fresh. Chips were good, curry sauce and mushy peas too. Simple and hit the spot.

Popped in for a jacket potato with cheese and beans. The cheese was properly melted, not just a cold lump on top. Portion was generous and really hit the spot on a chilly day. Simple, but done well.

Loved the crab sandwich! A bit on the pricier side, but such a nice spot for a casual catch-up with friends.

The onion rings were spot on, and the lamb steak special was cooked just right. Nice touch with the big jugs of water, too.

Really liked the bright, airy feel of the place. The panini was tasty, bread was decent. Could&#39;ve used a bit more chicken inside though. Cake was nice.

Been a regular for years, and the oolong tea is still the highlight for me. Strong, full-bodied flavour that holds up well. It&rsquo;s the kind of drink that makes a simple meal feel complete. Always consistent.

Food comes out piping hot, which I appreciate. But for the price, I was expecting a bit more on the plate. The quality is there, just wish the portions matched the cost a little better.

Glenn&#39;s smile is always there. The service is attentive, you never have to look for anyone. It&#39;s just smooth.

The retro arcade games in the back are a nice touch. My son loved them while we waited for our food. Kept him entertained, which was a plus.

The dry ho fun with beef brisket is reliably good. My regular order, and it&#39;s consistently flavourful.

The oat flat white here was spot on. I&#39;ve got some dietary needs, and the clear labels on the menu plus the staff being so clued in made ordering a breeze. Really appreciated that.

The curries here are so good and the prices are spot on for a student budget. Huge portions too - my friends and I always end up sharing. Perfect for a casual catch-up without breaking the bank.

Came here for my birthday. They had balloons at the table and brought out a small cake, which was a nice touch. The main course was tasty, but honestly, the portion felt a bit small for the price.

My go-to Costa in Eastleigh for a catch-up. It&#39;s just a bit quieter than the others, which is perfect when you actually want to hear your friends! Found a cosy little spot tucked away. The food options are decent, had a nice panini.

The kebabs are always spot on, and the pizzas are loaded with toppings. We came for a casual catch-up and the generous portions meant we could all share. The fresh salad was a nice touch too.

Ordered delivery to the boat at the quay. Salt &amp; chili ribs and prawns were tasty. Quick and easy.

Quick bite during lunch. Got the combo plate, decent portions for the price. Staff were friendly even when it was busy. Food came out fast, which is what I needed. Solid spot for a quick meal.

First time staying, rooms were clean and comfy for the price. Staff were welcoming. The food was nice, but the wine list felt a bit limited for pairing with the menu. Decent car park though.
