Finding this bar was a lovely surprise. Great Sunday dinner with cheaper than most lagers.

Nice spot right on the marina with outdoor seating and upstairs balcony overlooking the marina. There is a bar menu of baguettes, pizza and the usual bar snacks and a reasonable selection of drinks. Pick a sunny day, sit outside and watch the boats come and go.

The young girls serving were rude and clearly didn't want to be working, shame because it spoilt the visit. Smile and politeness goes along way!

Excellent little bar and restaurant. I had a plate of Whitebait and half a pint of Asahi lager and it was about £9. My only criticism was the Tartar sauce, it was from some pretty bad bottle of catering tartar sauce. It would be fantastic with one prepared on site.

We decided to try this cafe in the evening as we pop in here regularly for coffee after walking in the mornings. We weren’t disappointed- the pie was puff pasty with steak & Guinness . You could really taste it too. Our friends had the steak which was beautiful We had fish cake specials really nice too The staff are really good & always obliging Hoping to go again & sit outside in the sunshine

Loved this place situated by the marina. The service and food were excellent. Nice outside seating area. We had an enjoyable time. Have recommended to friends. Will certainly go again. Has parking available which is free if using the cafe and some of the other businesses.

Had a lovely evening at The Marina last night. The staff were super friendly, the whole place was spotlessly clean and the food was absolutely delicious. We both chose the chicken wrapped in Parma ham from the Specials board and it was absolutely delicious. Being a weekday night it wasn’t very busy but the ‘locals’ were a friendly bunch. The view over the marina is tranquil and the sunset was gorgeous. I’ve only had coffee here before but I will definitely be back to sample more food - and definitely the apple crumble which we just didn’t have room for ! A lovely experience in a welcoming and ‘homely’ environment. Thank you 💜

I found a hair in my breakfast, I gave it back to staff and said I did not want another one, and they took it back to the kitchen. I waited for a while for some feedback, but no one came, so I approached the staff member and ask if I can have a refund. I was told that it is not management policy to give a refund, it is their policy to replace the dish at that time. I explained that finding a hair in my food instantly made me lose my appetite, and asked if it is possible to be given a food voucher for the same amount of money, I was told again that it is not their policy. I felt sorry for the staff member, they were clearly embarrassed. I assured staff it is ok, it's not your fault and suggested management reconsider their policy especially around issues of hygiene. I refuse to play down an issue of finding hair in my food, it is not acceptable. An apology could have been given at least, consequently I don't think I will be ordering food any time soon. It is a real shame that I had this experience and upsetting. I would like to add that on the whole the Marina Bar is a lovely place to visit, it is in a great location, and a great place to sit outside having a drink in the sun.

Very disappointing Sunday Roast. Vegetables undercooked. Food not very hot. Very draughty cafe/bar as doors both ends are opening & closing all the time, but always left to slam shut by customers & staff. Staff throw empty glass bottles in a container near the bar, so every now & then there is a crash. Obviously a very busy place as it is in an unusual location & been there for many years. Not somewhere we will be going back to.

Frankly disappointing. Last time I attended it was good. The last time I went, I had to wait over an hour for a salad and a sandwich, and when the food arrived, the salad smelled off and I had to get a refund. Some staff are rude and abrupt when answering questions, others are friendly and helpful. It's a shame because it's a nice place to relax by the water.

Pleasant place with excellent range of food, reasonably priced. Great location and food was very good. We had dinner and breakfast next morning and found food tasty, hot and freshly cooked. Only downside was that staff were not very friendly and were quite brusque, although service was efficient. I felt this detracted from the atmosphere, and despite the setting there was little ambience.

We love this place. It looks unassuming from the outside but is spacious and well laid out inside with decor befitting a marina-based cafe. The food is tasty, well presented, of a high standard and reasonably priced with a delicious all-day breakfast coming in at under £10. The staff are welcoming, friendly and efficient. There is plenty of free parking outside, and there is wheelchair accessibility.

Great view, my local café/bar . Relaxed atmosphere, but can't charge phone/laptop if like most cafés you want to work there? Simple menu, but regularly updated and happy there are vegan options. However, the food can be bland, so would be nice with herbs and spices added and healthier bread options. E.g. sourdough. Good value price wise. Friendly staff .Thank you
