Nibbles and drinks. We had four starters to go with our drinks, all good. In fact very good, they…read morehave got a lot better. And a lovely setting, watching the sun set over the moors in June. One problem, the staff. We asked to sit outside. Told they were short staffed and we couldnt, even though the place was almost empty, and the staff hung around the bar chatting a lot. Then saw a couple outside have their order taken. Come one! OK, even if you closed off the wood decking area outside, we could have sat just outside the back door, which you can see from the bar and is easy to cover. So we took our drinks and rest of our food out there. But of course only on the proviso we pay first, in case we run off. Really? You need to have a word with your staff, they need to be more flexible. Need to realise what is good for the customer is good for their wages.

I didn't even realize I had reviewed this restaurant before, but I do remembers last visit. If the…read morelast visit was 3 stars, this is definitely a 2 star place. I arrived for a business lunch at 12:50pm. We were sat immediately, as we had reservations. 12:55-drink orders placed 1:00pm-drinks arrive (one wrong) 1:20-waitress finally returned for food order. One person ordered 3 appetizers as a meal, but requested it all together (soup, salad, and calamari). No one else ordered any appetizers 1:45-soup and salad come out, separate from everything else 2:00-some of the food comes out. My order is partly wrong, more on that later 2:05-remaining food comes 2:15-we finish eating 2:25-we finally get the waitress to pay the bill Really? 90 mins for a lunch service? 2 tables were sat, served, and cleared while we waited for food Food: I ordered the shredded BBQ chicken with roasted root vegetables instead of chips. The sandwich was 3/5, but I got the chips. And the root veg. At least I got the food I ordered, but they sill got it wrong and we paid extra for an additional side. I wouldn't return, but as I'm typically on the receiving end visiting customers in this area I will provably be back. Hopefully they redeem themselves.

We felt that these were absolutely superb starting dishes. Obviously after that we were hungry for more (side note: the service was brilliant props to them for quick and straightforward yet thorough service) so I ordered the scampi, continuing to settle my sea food hunger. My partner then went for the Chicken and bacon with creamy cheese sauce and mushrooms and OH MY GOD yet again these dishes handled and cooked perfectly, bravo to the chef! The meal was absolutely mouthwatering in appearance, satisfying in proportion and down right taste bud tingling in taste... overall 5 stars all around! Completely pleased.

As I sit here using my phone I cant rollover stars to rate this pub. This is a lovely pub with a…read morerange of beers etc and good pool table. sadly the young barman / landlord is more interested in talking to his friends than customer service. Having found the wifi named after the pub & asked if I could have a password I was told simply 'no. are you staying long as you havent bought a drink yet' As I say a lovely pub, right on the quay front. I only hope that the real landlord is away tonight or it wont be open long with such customer service I give the pub 4* BUT the staff & service 1*

I visit this area a few times a year for business. The customers I visit love this place and always…read moreinsist that we go here. It's a fairly typical English pub, but there are a few things of note: 1) they source almost everything within a small local area 2) all the seafood is amazing 3) they have great local beer on draft (but you should know most local ale in this area is a gravity tap and served at room temp) 4) everything on the dessert menu comes with clotted cream It's a 3 star place on normal standards, but I'm giving it a 4th star because its much better than the other local options.
