Roast beef was lovely. Wasn't sure about Yourshire pudding, it was hard.Cream brulee was runny. Otherwise, it's a great place, great atmosphere, lovely scenery, friendly and helpful staff.

Service disappointing. Arrived to a fairly busy cafe, lady serving seemed a little flustered. Ordered the breakfast bap offer, and was told they had run out but could do it from the kitchen next door! Wasn't sure what she meant- did we need to order from next door, but she said that she could sort for us- great! Asked if this would still be the offer price, and wasn't told any different. Paid, didn't take a receipt- mistake on my part. Sat down and then began to question the price I had paid, as it made the piece of cake I had also ordered over £6!! Went up, was told that she was too busy to discuss but would come over when things had settled! The young waiter (who is very pleasant) bought out the breakfast bap ( which was very nice) and we questioned him if the price was different as it was from "next door". He said no difference in price. The lady who served us then came over with our drinks, and cake. Slapped some coins on the table and explained that she had charged the coffee and breakfast bap separately instead of giving the offer because it was coming from "next door" and its more expensive?! Different to what the waiter had said? She did apologise but it wasn't a real apology as again mentioned it was because it had come from "next door". Next door is literally a kitchen in the same building but they try and separate into a cafe and a restaurant- presumably?! Everyone makes mistakes but it's how you rectify them that counts. Sadly, it's a lovely location but won't be returning due to attitude of staff member. The food was actually fine.

Went for lunch yesterday very disappointed poor service expensive for sandwiches made with cheap sliced bread and low quality filling we’ve been before and enjoyed the visit was a hidden gem not going to be returning

Shame .........almost felt you shouldn't be there ! and what a difference from last year had the fish platter stated granary bread ! that was a joke first thinly cut 1 slice cut into 4 was so dry could almost be toast -then the 2nd lot appeared frozen sliced wholemeal about as much finesse as an out of date loaf from Lidl ! read my review from Maldon's Fish on the quay if you are unsure how to serve a dish like this ! ...................no one smiled no one asked if everything was ok and to be really frank if you don't like the general public OR your job leave and do something else the other 3 meals were passable but we will not return or recommend but as they say "there is always another punter coming over the bridge !

Disappointing.. been here before but yesterday I had a sandwich and the bread was from a mediocre sliced loaf. Would expect better than that for over £8

Great food, great service and very friendly staff. Lovely view over looking the marina. Good value for money.

Attended for a party and the setting is beautiful with the marina and outdoor area. Lots of choices for drinks and food we had as a buffet was beautiful.
