Absolutely superb food with delightful service. What more could you ask for. Everything was spot on from start to finish.

A micropub tucked away near Sandwich's central square. Quite eclectic but comfortable and good beers. may be worth checking hours before visiting as it can be a bit irregular.

An excellent meal, we had fajitas served on a sizzling skillet, really tasty. Supper friendly and great atmosphere. Looking forward to trying their Sunday lunch.

What a hidden gem. So I didn't know about this pub which was hidden in the corner. We went in without a booking, thinking it's a Sunday and its quite early, we should be fine. but they said they all quite full, so I was surprised. They popped us at the outside table. It was cosy and really lovely. The food came and we were not disappointed. One of our friends hate vegetables but is a veggie.. and he ate all of the food cos it was so delicious. The portions are generous.

So far I’ve eaten a good range of dishes from the super quirky bar and restaurant tucked away in central Sandwich. Really tasty tapas to perfectly cooked rib eye, fabulous desserts and my out and out favourite, the Sunday Roast. This is a beast of a meal with countless carefully and delicately cooked veg accompaniments. All of the food I’ve had here has been superb. The venue the staff the food are all original, characterful and top quality. It takes time to produce food this good from a tiny team in a small space. There’s a take away next door if you are in a rush for mediocrity.

Absolutely fantastic meal last Friday.The staff were very friendly, nothing was too much trouble for the Chefs. We all enjoyed 3 courses. Starters: Tempura chicken, Calamari and a Scallop & King prawn dish. For main: Cod for one, Rib eye steak for other 3 of us (all cooked to perfection) with chips and accompaniments. For dessert: Brownie for 2, Peanut butter ice cream and lastly a Profiteroles. A sublime meal, would highly recommend!! Compliments to the Chefs again!!

Fantastic Sunday lunch One of the best ever . Wine great Food great Atmosphere cosy. Loved it Courtyard smelt of wee..which was unfortunate and it wasn't from the toilet which is located off the courtyard and was very clean and tidy . (Think a desperate customer must have had a sneaky pee in the corner) I

Quirky, unique little place serving tasty food and drinks. Perfect place for a catch up with friends, made to feel welcome and such a nice setting in sandwich town.

Nice little micro pub, opening times vary, choice of ciders, gins and ales, nice outside seating area. Nice lady behind the bar.

We stumbled across The Mermaids Locker when we stopped by for a drink. We decided to reserve a table for the evening and we were not disappointed. My husband said the ribs were the best he’d ever had and my steak was delicious. The guy next to us proposed to his lady too - special night. Thanks for a meal to remember!

Don't be put off the unprepossessing location next to a Kebab Shop, this is the best food in Sandwich. None of your Brakes-supplied pre-prepared nonsense you find in most pubs these days. Everything appears to be cooked from fresh (I've seen the owner buying fish in the local fishmonger) - you can watch the chef from the bar area. It's a small place and has a small but nice sunny garden at the back. A rather small selection of real ales (only 2), but very well chosen and kept. Service was informal and helpful. My only criticism would be their website where the opening hours bear no relationship to the actual opening hours. My go-to place in Sandwich now, so much better than other more obvious and better positioned establishments.
