Riverside Inn in Shropshire

Had a late Sunday dinner here with friends. Service was excellent, thanks to the wonderful Finn B. Food was delicious. Beautiful place, although it was dark and very windy. Definitely goofing back in the summer next year to enjoy the beautiful gardens. David and team make it a friendly atmosphere.

Great food. Good service and good view of river we went there tree times out of the seven of our stay booking advised.early evening is usually quiet

Anniversary meal as a group of 5. We all were really pleased with our meals in a great spot to also appreciate the view. Ellie looked after us with a friendly smile and with a professional manner. All the staff was great actually, even though they were very busy. Our first visit but certainly not our last.

Booked for lunch. Food was excellent and service was perfect. Menu was varied to suit all requirements. We were served by Lesley who made us feel relaxed and went out of her way to ensure we had a great time celebrating my Aunties birthday. Thank you 😊

Amazing food and lovely staff our server Lesley was absolutely wonderful , food absolutely amazing and deserts was great will be coming again

So on arrival was taken to our table where it was quite busy and noisy. So we moved to the top. Was given our menu and drinks orders taken. After looking at the menu to which there wasn't much choice if you like fish only seabass. Starter we picked belly pork ribs to share and then told they didn't have. Waitress apologise amd said they should of told u that when they given u the menu. Understandable. So we ordered the cheese garlic bread to share as a starter. I ordered the steak pie. Was asked chips or mash. I asked if I could have a very small portion of both. Was told need to ask chef. Came back and said no 1 or other. I choose mash. When starter came out. Was shocking. No side salad or presentation at all. Mains Pie was tasty. Mash was cold and veg very hard. Seabass Over cooked and dry and covered in to much sauce. Very disappointing This is my 3rd visit and unfortunately will not be returning 😕 I do.have pictures but can't find anywhere to upload

Fantastic meal, wonderful staff and a beautiful setting. A must go destination!!

Had a lovely meal for my Mum's birthday, food was very tasty and the service from Sian was excellent! We will come again!!

Beautiful location for this professionally run hotel, bar and restaurant. Excellent service and delicious food served all day.

Bit disappointed with our meal today The waiter was very rude and the service was so slow. We was only asked if we want drinks once to the point we had to go to the bar our self. The food was good but they was a massive fly problem in the restaurant and we had flys landing all over our food and it was very unhygienic

Poor as ordered food , brought out main before starter , when main came out, food was warm not hot . Even got the ice cream wrong. Nice pub if you get the right seat with a river view. Staff pleasant

We had a really nice time her on Sunday evening. 4 of us went for my husband’s birthday after visiting it the Sunday before for drinks in the spectacular outdoor space. The food was delicious and the atmosphere was so relaxing all the staff we had contact with were friendly, polite and welcoming. It’s the best night we have enjoyed for a while. We will definitely be back.

We’ve been to the Riverside a few times as we’re not too far away. It’s always been a good standard of food and is dog friendly which is great. The acoustics of the conservatory out the back can be poor, it gets very noisy so if you are sensitive to that then ask to be seated elsewhere. We’ve been in the last 2 weekends for Sunday dinners and the difference between the weekends was quite surprising. Weekend 1 they had ran out of roasts, replaced them with roasted new potatoes and they were lovely. We had the sirloin beef which was nice enough and a good size portion and this spurred us to go back again. Weekend 2 they had ran out of sirloin so I had rib of beef and the wife had turkey. Both were nice but this week we got a few tiny roasties and a very flat Yorkshire pudding that really shouldn’t have been served. Not sure we’ll bother going back again for a Sunday roast until it quietens down a little out of the holidays. Several other more consistent places to eat in the area.

Another lovely meal here! Lesley our waitress was super friendly and helpful, would definitely recommend!!!!!!!!!!

We decided to go out last minute for lunch and this had been recommended on Facebook. We managed to get a reservation for lunch. We arrived early so sat in the bar and had a drink first, the Barman was spot on recommending which tonic to pair with a gin i had never tried before too. All the staff were very friendly and welcoming. Our roast dinners were spot on , was planning to have a pudding but could not eat anything else. Next time i will!

This is our second visit and again it didn’t disappoint. Food was absolutely beautiful, we had a Trio of roasts, Bakewell tart and sticky toffee pudding. Everything about it was delicious, outlook from the conservatory was just beautiful. Our server Lesley was so helpful, friendly and made our experience just perfect! We will be returning very soon! Thank you 😊

Great location, great food, great service

Came here with my family and had a lamb shank and a glass of red wine. Lovely food and location.

Lovely Sunday lunch, Lesley was amazing and so so lovely. A credit to the restaurant!

Delicious food in a lovely setting.

Had a meal on busy Saturday evening and everything was excellent. We were served by Ellie who was attentive and pleasant. Sat in conservatory with lovely views of river

Amazing food but not enough staff long wait for food and drinks

Excellent Sunday roast today at The Riverside Inn. 3rd or 4th visit this year and never disappointed. Our server, Aimee, was very friendly and attentive. We were a party of 3, one in a wheelchair and every effort was made to make the place accessible. Food and drinks were all delicious. Can't wait to return. Oh and the views of the river and surrounding area are stunning, especially on a lovely sunny day like today.

Lovely location food average service really bad

We as a family of eight visited on father's day and was pleased to have had a fantastic lunch ,service ,setting ,will be visiting again.

Lovely riverside pub / hotel. Had Sunday lunch sat in the bar area as we had our dog with us. Lovely food, good selection of beer and friendly staff. Definitely worth a visit.

For the second consecutive visit, we sat at our table at 4pm. After 1hr still waiting for our drinks and starter. After 30 minutes from sitting down, we had to snatch a waiter to get our order taken. Others around us were complaining they had been there 2hrs and were still waiting to order a second drink and desert. Had to walk out after speaking to duty manager who admitted they were short staffed (still!). We asked why on earth they allow bookings in the knowledge they cannot cope? Reply was there was no company policy on it🤦‍♂️ Disastrous birthday meal out for my wife as by time we walked out, there was nowhere serving food Big thank you to Riverside. We won’t be going again and we certainly will be sharing our experience for the second d time

Really nice pub and good food, we came for a meal on Sunday and we’re disappointed with the 45 minute wait for our drinks, after asking multiple times about the wait we were told that there was nothing that could be done. Food came out before the drinks arrived

Great location. Beautiful setting.

Sadly, today is not brilliant 1hr wait and one meal had missing roast potato but 2 lots of cabbage, plate swimming in veg water so everything soggy... manager reason miss plated !!!! It's a std roast dinner! same everything week not buying that. Waste of a few hrs, but give them credit for taking cost of the bill

Best view off the river Severn in the area

Really bad management, staff are rude, but placed in a very nice location/ view.

My husband and I went for my birthday lunch today and on first impressions we were very happy with the location. Unfortunately that is the only postive as it went down hill after that. We were the first to arrive in the restaurant and first to order. All we ordered was snacks and a light lunch each so imagine our shock to find the snacks were the smallest serving we have ever come across. We then had to wait an extra 50 minutes for our light lunches, watching others getting their meals before us. Upon asking the waiter as to where our light lunches was he promptly went to find out but then didn't bother coming back. When stopping him again he said it will be another 10 mins dismissively. When showing our annoyance about such a delay he said it was because we ordered a starter each (?). When I complained to the waitress about the delay when it finally arrived she ran back to the supervisor saying I told her off (wasn't the case at all). When the supervisor arrived she was passive aggressive and was dismissive of our concerns. She also made excuses about them being busy until I pointed out that we were the first to order so why were others getting their meals before us. She made the same excuse as the waiter that it was because we ordered starters (snacks) and that it delayed the meal by 50 minutes. I suspected that they forgot our lunches and did not apologise nor offer an resolutions until I made a comment about a full refund due to the poor service. She was rude and pulled faces and said that we could have a full refund if that is what we wanted (making a rude suggestion that this was our intention all along). We paid despite the disgusting service and poor quality/overpriced meals as we are good people. Moral of the story is don't operate in the service industry if you have no intentions of delivering a quality service. Oh and instead of saying to people who give you poor reviews that you will take things on board and welcome suggestions but not actually doing it, maybe you should actually improve your service. ;{

Lesley our server was fabulous, extremely passionate about delivering a faultless experience for her guests. The food was incredible, best burger I've ever had! Would highly recommend and will be revisiting again soon

Visited 30th May for dinner with my family (party of 8). Food was very nice, price was very reasonable, and service from all the staff was great. Thanks

I recently stayed at the Riverside Inn and it was an exceptional experience! The highlight of my visit was definitely the restaurant. The food was absolutely exquisite, with a diverse menu that catered to a variety of tastes. Each dish was prepared to perfection, and the flavors were incredible. The staff were incredibly friendly and attentive, making sure that all my needs were met and adding a personal touch to the dining experience. The location of the Riverside Inn is stunning, with a beautiful view of the river that added a serene and calming atmosphere to my stay. I spent hours just enjoying the view from my room and the outdoor seating area of the restaurant. It's the perfect spot for anyone looking to relax and unwind. Another fantastic feature was the availability of charging stations for electric vehicles. This was a huge plus for me, as it made my stay even more convenient and eco-friendly. I didn't have to worry about finding a place to charge my car, which was a great relief. Overall, the Riverside Inn exceeded all my expectations. From the excellent food and friendly staff to the breathtaking views and modern amenities, it truly is a gem. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a memorable and enjoyable stay. I will definitely be returning in the future!

My Granddaughter wanted to have a meal here for her 11th birthday on Bank Holiday Monday, so as you can imagine she was very excited. By the time we ate she was almost 12. To say the service was diabolical is overrated. When we eventually received our starters my daughter had the pleasure of feeling my wife's starter all down her back as the waitress spilt the Hollandaise sauce everywhere, ruining her brand new top. Over an hour later after I had complained the mains arrived, luke warm !!!! No one out of 8 enjoyed their meal. I had the syeak and ale pie which I think was made on Friday it was that hard. £16 for cold chips and pie !!!! We did notice other people complaining about the lack of service. We will definitely not be returning. Thanks for ruining my Granddaughters birthday.

Location is lovely, however the staff cannot cope with the huge influx of visitors this place receives. Went on bank holiday Monday for a pre booked late lunch for 8 at 3pm. We didn't receive our mains until 4.30pm which wasn't ideal as it was already a late meal. Had they advised of the wait when we ordered we would have been understanding, however the waiter just wanted to tell us that it was actually his day off and he shouldnt have been there working at that time - not a great vibe. The waitress spilt hollandaise sauce all over my sister when bringing the starters, and although they removed the cost of that starter off the bill (it wasn't her dish), no one offered anything to compensate for the ruined clothing or embarrassment. I even asked when paying the bill if anything could be done, as the service was slow and due to the sauce incident - was told by the waiter who shouldn't have been working that he had already removed the starter, and the wait times were because they were busy - so no. Won't be returning here due to the attitude of some of the staff, and the overpriced food that wasn't worth waiting that long for.

Lovely setting by the river, only stopped for a drink on the way home after a day out. Fairly expensive (£30 for 5 drinks (2 beers, 1 coke, a G&T and a pot of tea) but I suppose that's the price you pay for the stunning location

Lovely pub, decided to pop in for a snack on way back from Shrewsbury, lady on desk said we were OK to sit in the bar and gave us a menu we ordered our drinks and sat at table deciding what to eat, then went to order only to be advised couldn't order food was extremely disappointed so had to drink our drinks and find somewhere else, we only wanted sandwiches not a full meal 😢😢

Delyth was fantastic, such a lovely young lady, very professional and friendly. Also the food was beautiful Thank you John & Wimon

Only stopped here for a quick drink on our way home from a night away in Oswestry but received a warm welcome for us & our little dog.

This place is one of my favourite places to eat. It has a great atmosphere, is decorated nicely. Good menu, reasonably priced and service is friendly and efficient. Charlie served us on the last occasion and her was very lovely.

Great location by the river severn. Very smart establishment. Food was OK . Service was slow.

A beautiful setting. A lovely relax ambience whilst eating gorgeous meal

The food was ok, but the service was non-existent

Aaron was really good made banter with my brother solid service thank you Aaron very cool - - below is a photo of me being very happy

Food was excellent, staff very friendly but not enough of them so there was quite a wait but the view is definitely worth it

I came today for lunch with my MIL we had the most amazing food, we were seated in conservatory overlooking the beautiful river. The food was quick, delicious and the staff equally fantastic. Big big thank you to the two lovely young ladies (26/04/2024 @12.30) special mention to them, they made the afternoon lovely 🌹

Lovely meal and Lesley was our waitress very pleasant and helpful

I visited the Riverside Inn for an afternoon meal. First impressions were that it is a very nice building in a very nice location. When we entered the building there were rooms all over the place like a maze! We found our way to the rear of the building and sat in the conservatory restaurant area, which was quite stylish in design. However, it could have done with some UV pest control units as the conservatory windows had large flies and a wasp buzzing around, which is not good when eating. The meal I ordered was a Cajun Chicken Burger that came with onion rings and thin fries, this cost £15.29. Although there was nothing majorly wrong with the meal, I did feel improvements could be made: 1st) the batter on the onion rings was quite soft and soaked in oil. I have cooked frozen onion rings myself in an air fryer and they came out VERY crispy with little oil, so much nicer! I feel the Riverside Inn should try this method and finish off their onion rings in an air fryer for much better results. 2nd) the Cajun battered chicken in the burger was nice, but again soaked in oil. The chicken was also too thick (about 30mm) which made the burger difficult to eat, especially when the burger contained bacon and cheese too. 3rd) the streaky bacon in the burger wasn't very crispy, so the streaks of fat found in streaky bacon where like elastic rubber bands! This again made eating the burger difficult and not that enjoyable. Bacon medallions would be a MUCH better choice of bacon for burgers as it has no fat. 4th) some of the lettuce in the burger looked like it had been standing around several hours, it was dry and looked like leaves of a dying plant! This was a bit worrying as old lettuce can sometimes cause food poisoning. 5th) The fries were ok and made of fresh potatoes. However, they were not at all crispy and very limp. Although, I do understand that getting fries to stay crispy is very difficult! Even McDonald's have this problem sometimes and they cook more fries than anyone! 6th) the choice of tableware seemed rather odd. The plates were a rustic / stone looking design with black speckles all over. The first thing that reminded me of this look was a damp wall with mould spots! I think pure white or jet black tableware would have looked much nicer and complemented the colour of the foods better. Overall, the meal was ok, but I do not feel I would rush back to the Riverside Inn. Having the view of the river while eating was very nice indeed though, a fantastic spot for a restaurant! Oh, and the customer toilets were VERY clean when I used them, very important!

If we could give this place 10 stars we would, fantastic service, fantastic food , fantastic drinks , staff we're exceptional will definitely be returning. Scott & Sharon Thomas.

My husband and I stopped for lunch, it's a lovely place. Lesley and James (who was training) were very attentive. Generally good service, however the chip's were old and cold.

What a great place this is, venue is superb. The food and service couldn’t be faulted ! Lunchtime meal for my wife’s birthday.

My wife and I have now visited The Riverside Inn twice in recent months . On our last visit we also took our son with us who has also visited once before . On our previous visit we had all found the food to be OK and well prepared . This time we found the food to be very poorly cooked and our son , not a fussy eater , left most of his pie as it the meat did not taste right . My wife had asked for a steak to be cooked medium to well done but it came rare and did have a lot of fat on it . My fish and chip meal was fine but the dish of mushy peas was very watery and seemed to be overcooked . As a location The Riverside Inn is in a superb spot with a lovely view over the bend of the River Severn. The facilities are modern and well looked after. The Riverside Inn has a large well laid out car park with good access to the building . As a real ale fan I was looking forward to trying the beers here but I have been greatly surprised by , in my opinion , the very high pricing of the bees . On my last visit I had a half of Greene King Hopping Special - a 4.2% pale ale on sale for £5.25 a pint. Although the Riverside Inn is some distance from other rivals and villages I do think this is rather excessive price and the quality was also rather below average . We did report our concerns regarding the food to waitress who said she would pass them on .

Lovely food in a beautiful setting

Visited first time today after passing many times. Gorgeous food lovely view. Was excellent, it reminds you how customer care should be. I'd give it 6 stars if I could.

The food and service were fine, and the location is excellent.

We booked for a Saturday late lunch (on the Tuesday ) via a real person for a dog friendly table, as we have many times before. I'd said we weren't bothered about time just when we could fit in. We arrived to be put at a snout level table/sofa seating in the bar which feels like eating off your lap and annoying to lean forward to eat. We were on the toilet route so had people walking past us frequently. Sent to order at the bar along with a queue, then wait about 30 minutes for the second course, having moved out of the pathway to another low table. Having expected to have a restaurant meal with restaurant service, disappointed to be treated as an inconvenience. If we'd been told the dog tables were booked we were flexible so could have taken a different time which is why we spoke to a person rather than the automated service. Silly season is fine as there is plenty of outside room, but usually not enough staff so prepare for a wait. As locals we won't be back til the autumn when you need the business.

Beautiful setting for a tasty lunch. Thanks to Aaron for being helpful on accessible table seating (plus 2 dogs).🙂

Me and my friend went for a meal on the 4th April and was served by Lesley. And all I can say is she was hands down superb!!! She was so friendly and comforting!! Nothing was too much trouble!! Some jokes were shared and just make us feel welcome!! The food was spot on as well unfortunately didn't manage to have dessert as was too full. But also because she said if we didn't finish our food we cannot get one which my friend couldn't manage to finish 😅😅🤣🤣 will happily come there again abs be served by Lesley again!!!

Perfect location, beautiful location beside The Severn and fantastic attentive staff...oh and the food is delicious with very tasty ( and different) veggie options) and a varied and changing menu. Love it!

On the way out our friend from Scotland said "I'll give it a 10 " Says it all !!

I came her for lunch last Friday with my friend. We had pre booked a table to sit outside, however upon arrival we were greeted at the desk by two men who had asked if we’d booked, we then replied yes. They then looked at us funny and questioned us booking for outside, so I suggested to my friend “well shall we see if we can sit inside” as the weather wasn’t great anyway. The one man then proceeded to be quite sarcastic and said “ oh would you, would you like to come stand this side of the desk” which I thought was an odd thing to say considering we had never been here before. After an awkward silence we then got seated to a table in the middle section of the restaurant. I then asked if it would be possible if there were any tables free in the conservatory instead, as it’s a lovely view. I was told it no and that it was fully booked in there. It was very quiet this time, but I didn’t question it. Within 10 minutes surprisingly my friend and their family came in and were seated in there - without booking a table or requesting. Obviously I went over to say hello and they told me they were on the way back home from Shrewsbury and stopped in to see if they had any tables free. Obviously a table is a table. Im not as much bothered about it. It’s more the way we were spoken and treated by the two men we were greeted by. There was a lovely young girl who served us also, who we thought was really nice. Other than that the food was amazing and the location is stunning! Just disappointed with the door service.

We booked for Sunday lunch over Easter weekend. Our booking was for 3pm and we didn’t get to eat until 4pm (we appreciate it’s a busy weekend) The Mushroom Wellington was really poor quality - more like a gelatinous gravy pie - very disappointing.

Charming Chef and Brewer pub / restaurant overlooking the River Severn. Great location for those summer days with a fantastically located beer garden. Ample parking. Dog friendly.

A bit out in the sticks but affords a beautiful and unusual view of the Severn. A wonderful spot to spend a summer afternoon.

Lovely place, excellent food and friendly staff! Very good kids menu with lots of nice options and interchangeable sides, plus ‘build your own’ dessert options which were a hit with our 4 year old!

First day of the Specials at 7pm to find they had run out of the duck. The fish alternative small portions and the prawns were overcooked and rubbery

Went here for Saturday night dinner , upon arrival I found the dining room to be full of people enjoying their lovely food , the pie especially seemed popular, decided upon the fish and chips which was cooked to perfection and my gf , ordered a chicken burger which was very enjoyable.... The mushrooms on toast are very nice as a starter. 5 * recommendation

Lovely restaurant set in a beautiful location. The food there is always incredible, never disappoints. The staff are always so lovely and helpful. we had a meal there yesterday and the lovely lady who served us our meal recommended a dish to me which she said was one of her favourites, i can see why, the flavours and quality of food is impeccable. (sorry we didn’t catch the name of the lady who served us, but her service was excellent) Also Fin is always a jolly character. He had us laughing a few times during our time there yesterday. highly recommend this restaurant.

Good service, prepared to be flexible on accompaniments.

As always a fantastic food, ambience and above all exceptional service from Aaron. Incredible personable, the kids loved him and we felt so welcome. We come here everytime we have guests in Shrewsbury as it’s always a hit. Can’t wait for Summer to be in the garden again !

Lovely location, but food wasn't anything special. What was most concerning however was serving my allergy suffering partner hallumi (and some rogue packaging in the meal!) rather than fish. Staff weren't bothered.

Only a brief visit but very impressed with the restoration and enhancement. Being quiet at the time it lacked atmosphere but the vision was clear to see. Quality throughout including the staff. Top quality venue in a location to die for 👌

We thoroughly enjoyed our 2 night stay at the Riverside Inn.As soon as we entered ,I could tell by the cleanliness,decor and friendly welcome,that we had chosen well.Our bedrooms were super clean,beautifully decorated,warm and comfortable. The restaurant was of the same high standard,and evening meals were enjoyable and reasonably priced. Breakfast in the morning offered a good choice and we were served by the friendly and very efficient Grainne ( hope I've spelt that right 🙂!) We found all staff to be polite and helpful.We have already recommended your establishment to friends and family!

Lovely pub, with great views. The staff are very friendly and the food is amazing. Will be going back...

Came here with my mum on a Friday lunchtime as a pre-Mothers' Day treat. I had the squid starter which was amazing, followed by fish and chips, and my mum had the mushroom pie and apple tart for desert. The portions were generous, and the food was well cooked and very tasty. We were in the restaurant at the back with terrific views of the river and Shropshire countryside. Service was excellent, and the whole experience was very good - as was the value for money. I would definitely recommend this place, and we'll definitely be back again. We reserved a table in advance, which I would also recommend to do.

Lovely meal and great service in a beautiful location. We ate in the conservatory again, which has lovely views over the river.

Came here for a meal, excellent food and service

Favorite place!! Such a beautiful location. Staff so professional and friendly. Amazing food and drinks. Big thank you to Caitlin and other girls who looked after us today.

There are gluten free options but interestingly chips are not suitable and there is no provision for an alternative version 'because the ones we buy in have flour on them'. Commercially produced chips in bags and frozen are dusted with starch of some kind to stop them sticking in the pack and it doesn't have to be wheat flour. Moreover, great tasting, crunchy and GF chips are easy to cook by parboiling then frying and a quality kitchen would do this rather than buying in plastic-bagged chips. I had salad instead and, to call the bag of rocket with cucumber ribbons and a drizzle of dressing a salad, is a stretch. Another hint that the kitchen is a food assembly line instead of a chef's kitchen. Lovely staff and surroundings though, just not a place to go if you want well prepared, good food.

Super friendly staff who gave prompt and friendly service (at the bar too). The food is superb and sweets fantastic. Views are wonderful,

Fantastic food and Sian and Fin were too they made us so welcome from start to finish. We will be back Thank you.

Manager turned us away for Sunday lunch saying it's fully booked, booked a table online for 15 mins later because it didn't look that busy, was quite awkward to be honest, location is unreal with great views, Sunday dinner was average

Lovely location. Very nice food and good service

Had a lovely lunch with family. Food great, our server Lesley was fantastic. She was very friendly, helpful and knowledgeable (as I am Gluten Free, she couldn’t have been more helpful). Definitely will return.

Excellent food,service and staff

Really enjoy this pub. Been a many occasions. Went again last night. Had food of their special menu and the food was awesome. Thank you so much guys

Having been a regular visitor to the Riverside for a number of years I decided to celebrate my 80 th birthday by booking a Sunday lunch there with two friends after family party on the Saturday the Sunday being my actual birthday. Table booked for 12 o-clock .We set off in good time but sadly all our access roads were closed due to flooding we rang hotel to inform them that due to diversions we were running a little late but we’re on our way , on arrival at hotel at 12-25 we were told our table had been given to someone else and that it was our own fault for being late . Your staff need to learn the basics of customer care Needless to say day ruined and we and all our friends will not be visiting again .

Amazing food, Amazing service - what more could you ask for. Would highly recommend the chicken burger & halloumi fries.

Me, Mum and my sister came for lunch last week and it was gorgeous. Lovely attentive staff, stunning location, decor is beautiful. The food was stunning. I had the CLUB sandwich which was probably the best one iv ever had (and iv tasted a few!) the ciabatta was really soft and it just tasted superb. Mum and sister had the flatbread which they said was also gorgeous 👌🏻 I wouldn't have a coca cola again, at £4 odd, I think that's quite greedy. But the food was quite reasonable, under £9 each for them!

Went there for a couples night out. Service and food are above average, and even deducted 20% as a Blue Light card holder. Anna was a very attentive waitress. Well done.

Where do I start! It takes a lot for me to not enjoy food and to complain but my experience of the restaurant yesterday was terrible. The restaurant manager was grumpy and complained about being under staffed. The service was painfully slow. The menu choices were uninspiring and healthy eating unfriendly but with the prices set so high, I was hopeful. DO NOT CHOOSE THE SMOTHERED CHICKEN! - The chicken was like a bit of old leather. - The bacon was under cooked and greyish in colour. - The peas were cold. - The dish was served in a skillet literally swimming in grease. The words do not justify how bad it was, I wished I'd taken a photo. If the manager hadn't been so stressed I would have sent it back. The setting and the interior of this venue are spectacular, such a shame that it badly let's itself down in this way. Edit: As a result of my review above, David McGrath the General Manager called me to discuss my disappointing experience at his establishment. He was clearly devastated and assured me he would be conducting some investigations to get to the bottom of it. He listened to my concerns and was keen to put things right so by way of an apology, kindly offered for my friends and I to return for a complimentary meal. I appreciated David taking the time to call me and and am now looking forward to returning to The Riverside Inn when I feel confident my experience on this next occasion will be far better.

Beautiful location. Great menu choice. Dog friendly. Service was fantastic. I'm looking forward to going back.

Burns Night, felt this was all about quantity and not quality, Venison casserole was so tough, complained "we'll let the kitchen know", sorry but not good enough

Food was delicious and they had fantastic vegan options. Staff was attentive and friendly.

Service was excellent, food was fantastic, view was to die for, will certainly be visiting again in the very near future.

Much improved since we went eighteen months ago. Back then service was awful/ today it was good. Food was fine. No complaints. The waitress was attentive. We adjourned to bar for a cuppa after our meal. Stunning view across river.

Out to lunch with friends, booked a table overlooking the river, very nice, starters and main course, absolutely delicious, no room for pud. All served by the very efficient, lovely Aaron.
