An American restaurant situated not far from the town centre with it's typical American decor. A…read morefantastic atmosphere with its ultra comfortable leather booth seats, skylight bringing in natural sunlight, even plug sockets for laptop users and free wifi. It also seems the place to watch live sports over a drink and a burger with tv screens on each corner of the restaurant yet it is still very family friendly and service has always been impeccable. In my honest opinion I do believe they serve some of the best American dishes around and can even compete with some of London's favourite diners. Wild wings (cajun) x6 Incredibly moreish and can see myself finishing a higher quantity bucket load. The wing sizes were quite average but very succulent and meaty inside. The cajun spices gave it a nice sweet paprika garlicky flavour and latched on well on the crispy skins of the wing showing that they were well fried, Sloppy Joes Ticked all the boxes for a fantastic burger. First that lovely pillow soft brioche bun, slightly charred so it came warm. Then came the rich tender minced beef fried with onions and peppers in there to give it some texture and boost of flavour. The sauce it came with was generous, with lovely rich sweet and and savoury notes keeping everything moist and juicy throughout. Finished off nicely with a fine slice of cheese, melted perfectly to intensify the umami flavours. Full rack ribs A delicious slab of ribs, keeping its meaty texture and flavours which suggest it was slow cooked the full length of time to tenderise and soften the meat. There was no pre cooking the ribs beforehand here. This allowed the rich BBQ coca cola sauce to penetrate through to the bone whilst reducing in liquid to create a rich and sticky coating around the ribs keeping everythign moist and juicy. A nice light creamy coleslaw on the side to cool things off. Curly fries These were perfectly fried. It had that moreish fluffy inside and crispy outside that was coated in the sweet mild spices which you find collapsing on itself as you chew, sending the rush of flavour through each mouthful. I say mouthful as who just pops one in their mouth per bite, not if they are this good. Chilli fries Not the spicy chilli as I imagined but chilli consisting of a wonderful well flavoured mix of red kidney beans, onions and red peppers in a lovely thick tomato slurry that helped bind the sauce and flavours on each and every chip. Drizzled with sour cream to add a lovely creamy consistency. Very wholesome dish. Sloppy suits every occassion whether it's your quick lunch or a celebration feast. Food has always been fantastic and paired with that is it's lovely bright and spacious atmosphere. Those who can eat a lot like me should definitely go for one of their food challenges. try their Sloppy Joes challenge and knock me down the top of the chart if you can.

Our friend LOVES this place. Everything you order comes on a waffle. My wife had a waffle with…read moregarlic and cheese sauce with shaved ham. She thought it was very good - and she loves the coffee. I had the BBQ beef with Cole slaw - of course, on a waffle. The Cole slaw was excellent. The BBQ sauce was tasty, but the meat was extremely salty. The waffles were very good - nice and fluffy. The portions were good, and the prices as expected. They do add a 10% tip to the bill automatically (FYI). By the way, as best I could tell, the bathroom is unisex - both men and women use the same bathroom (toilet). Didn't bother me, but you may want to be aware if this is a concern for you.

We came down because we got a voucher, which believe it or not it is always a good way to find out new places. It turned up that they completely forget about us (not about the reservation) and so they didn't prepare what's on the deal. However, the manager promptly offered us to pick up whatever we would love the most from the menu. We ended up for two steaks, medium cooked to perfection tasty and tender with chips on the side. Our daughter got a portion of cottage pie that turned up to be enormous. Our wait was cut short with a nice home made pork liver pate, and considering the nice outcome of the dinner we decided to go also for a dessert. A delicious carrot cake and a banana and almond cheesecake (which was a bit too frosty frankly - and that's the only disappointing bit). Price-wise, I would say the pub is in line with the surrounding area, and I will come back again because I'd love playing with the darts that sits just walked past the main door.

It took 25 mins to place our drink order- then about 30 more mins to get our food, after placing that order. Then we had to wait to place a dessert order. Then we had to wait for the check. One word for this comes to mind...'waiting'. We found ourselves waiting every step of the way for our waiter to acknowledge us. Honestly I can forgive A LOT if people are nice but that wasn't the case with our server. Low energy, not very warm and welcoming and slow. Actually to be fair, I got a smile from the busboy when I was on my way to the restroom- perhaps the 2 should switch roles if the restaurant is looking for repeat visits or nice reviews. Btw- the manager...not exactly sure what he was doing. One last thing, I've had sea bass in many restaurants and never had anyone leave the skin on-Just not what I expected. This restaurant gets 2 thumbs down for me. Go to Bills right around the corner - save some money - and get a smile from the staff and a nice greeting.

My wife and I chose this place for our last dinner in London before heading back home to DFW. I had…read moreread about this restaurant in some top 10 lists for foodies visiting London and was dying to check it out. First, it's not in the busy part of London where you would expect a restaurant of this caliber to be but rather it is in a very blue-collar neighborhood on the south side of London. It is a VERY cozy place with only seven tables but that is how they keep the quality and experience so great. The decor is as if you are on an old fishing ship. Reservations are highly recommended but we got there right when they opened (7pm) and thankfully they let us have a table. After being seated the hostess showed us the days specials and they ranged from fantastic scallops to lobster with every choice as good as the last. My wife and I chose the Chef's Choice 8 course dinner. The dinner comprised of a delicious sardine sandwich followed by a fillet of night perch which was then followed by lobster that melted in your mouth. Then we had a pallet cleanser of a light peach sorbet with a shot of vodka poured over it. The meal resumed with a grilled piece of pork belly (I got the "meat" choice) while my wife had a grilled hallibut (she got the "fish" choice). The next course was a warmed cheese (I believe it was gruyere) in pastry accompanied by a small mixed green salad with aged balsamic. The dessert courses were a delicious crepe with creme bruille filling and the end course was a pear puree along with a chocolate pudding with a hint of mint. We loved this place even though the name sort of threw us off at first. When you hear "The Lobster Pot" I imagine a bunch of seniors getting off a day-tour bus to a casino at a truck stop or something but this experience was far from what I first imagined. I would highly recommend spending some of your tourist dollars here at this restaurant.

Kitsch sticky menus…read moreneeded a bit of explanation and if the menus change regularly (no oysters , but I'd rather they'd be off the menu than off in my stomach) then perhaps daily printed menus would work. A delightfully decorative place complete with seagulls singing sea shanty classics on loop. Terrified but glorious goldfish adorning the cabin window walls, really every maritime detail had been thought of, even staff in cabin costumes, it was as cheesy as the lobster Thermidor. So fun. I loved being bibbed up too, I like knowing things are gonna get messy. The Meli, a melee of seafood; half lobster, sea bass, spicy grilled perch, razor clam (touch over done), squid kebab (could've been flavoured more) but all in a sea of buttery champagne and avruga sauce. No tide could hold me back from wanting to lick my plate or use this as a moisturiser, oh my golly so delicious. It came served with enough perfectly cooked veg that my mother would approve of too. Soft butter, less surprise from the proprietor at our arrival and this place would have had a perfect score. Overall our waitress was lovely and the food was really darn good.

We started with the baked camembert and it was absolutely phenomenal, the combination of flavors was well balanced and perfectly executed.

For my entree I chose the Taste of the Rusty Gun Pork which included these three pork specialties: Slow-cooked pork belly, pulled pork croquette, chorizo dauphinoise with rhubarb gel, watercress and red wine jus. I'm sorry, it took me a moment to get back to typing, I drooled on the keyboard a bit after typing that. The entree was "smashing" to quote my British companion and from there I finished with the Lemon Posset. By the time I was done I could hardly move. Oh, I also had the paired wine with each dish, and they pairings were excellent. I can't wait to go back.

Food is standard fish and chip stuff, except that they have a whole bunch of extras- chicken burgers, pies (Definitely recommend the pies!) and seems to have quite a good standard of hygiene and presentation. They have a kids menu, which is perfect for if you're just a bit peckish or have small children and really good value for money. Theres a set of booths inside, which is much nicer than your usual high bar stools and side table, and it's actually quite a pleasant place to eat in. The staff are really friendly and helpful, I think it may be family-run, and although there's sometimes a queue the basic food is mega-quick and for the more complicated less-ordered dishes, you won't be waiting longer than fifteen minutes. Perfect place to pop in with the kids to keep them full and happy. Not particularly health conscious, but its a nicer than average fish and chip joint!
