    First time here and it won't be our last. Service was excellent, staff were friendly, polite and seemed to enjoy their jobs. The food was faultless and we had plenty of it. I'd recommend this place to anybody. We were lucky enough to get a Seaview window aswell which topped it off nicely, although they stress they can't guarantee this.

    We booked a table and arrived early and they were very accommodating. My husband who adores fish dishes ordered the fish of the day and was a little disappointed as he doesn’t like fish with head and tail on. They forgot his potatoes but were very kind in giving us 10% discount. My dishes were absolutely delightful and I can’t fault anything so please visit and enjoy. Regards

    A fabulous meal - even for the non fish eaters! They said the burgers were one of the best they’d had - crab salad was fantastic so fresh and woof the same - couldn’t fault it and would highly recommend.

    Very good meal. We thoroughly enjoyed our food. Although I ordered the large fish & chips and my wife ordered the medium but I would say our fish were pretty much the same size to be honest.

    We had the fruits de mer and it was lovely, but expensive. Had to ask for bowls and the bread and butter but that was soon sorted The staff were lovely. The toilets were terrible, dirty and no toilet roll.
