Riverstation in Bristol, City of

Great location , lovely food , will certainly go back .

Super nice Resturant great location and great food !

Gorgeous food. Laid back but good service.

Lovely people working. Very accommodating the food was delicious sat overlooking the river.

We've been coming back to River Station for the best part of 25 years - at least it feels that way. It's not changed much and is a standout restaurant - we've never had a disappointing meal. Everything is now much more expensive but it's always good value. Cooked and served by a young, professional and caring team this would be our number one restaurant. We had three courses and a bottle of wine for £130. Making a reservation is easy and it's great all year round.

Fabulous roast lunch - the best I’ve had in a very long time. Great service. Loved that we were able to stay at our table chatting without being rushed out. Will definitely go again next time we visit Bristol.

A place that offers a must-try menu, a real culinary experience, with excellent value for money and generous portions with exceptional taste, all with impeccable service that makes you feel truly welcome! The outdoor area is also beautiful, with an enchanting and suggestive view. 100% worth trying!

The lamb was absolutely stunning, best lamb I've ever had. Great location, right on the water and great service. We will definitely be back again.

Misleading A board outside advertising fixed price menu that ends hours earlier

Nice venue, menu is ok - nothing to write home about - but the services is below average, despite asking for a fast turnaround food took more than 30mins to be delivered with little to no apology - in fact a bit of an argument about whether we had or had not told them!

It’s such a beautiful place, and the food is tasty! I ordered seabream (with truffle fries) and amoretto tiramisu. All are delicious!

Well presented and very tasty food, good knowledge on wine paring.

The harbour views and car park alone make the visit worthwhile

Great service, delicious food, fantastic location

OH MY GOODNESS WHAT AN UNDERRATED GEM! I was expecting my food to be alright and the wine to be all right but absolutely everything was phenomenal. The tables should be packed on a Saturday evening compliments to the chef it was absolutely incredible. I will be back here to impress people cause my god it's gorgeous. Absolutely fabulous food i had a chicken dish which I thought would be very meh but the flavours popped it was an explosion of culinary genius!

Misleading advertisement. Didn’t state that set menu was between 12 and 6. You need to make offers much clearer.

Absolutely standout restaurant. Food was banging with the steak cooked perfectly to my liking. Great wine selection and Leo’s service was top class.

Really great service & beautiful space with lovely views of the harbour

Andy, Leonardo and eryna were fantastic! Leonardo answered every single question we had with ease. Eryna gave us perfect service attentive and friendly and Andy made our meal here just perfect with his clear communication, friendly service and happy to help attitude there was no request too strange or too out there that Andy couldn't handle. Honestly felt like home coming to the riverstation as all of the staff were friendly and informative and welcoming. This is my favourite spot in town for food and drinks!

At Riverstation by the shore, The flavors sing, you'll ask for more. Yet staff are cool, a frosty guise, With distant stares and quiet replies. No hot sauce here to fan the flame, Just dishes worthy of their name.

We spent our New Year’s Eve at River Station in Bristol, and overall, it was a lovely evening. The restaurant itself has a fantastic atmosphere, and the staff were incredibly friendly and attentive. A special mention goes to our Ukrainian waitress, who was outstanding. She went above and beyond to make sure our experience was memorable and made us feel very welcome. The food was excellent in quality, but for the price of the set menu, the portion sizes could have been more generous. By midnight, we still felt a bit hungry, which was a slight letdown considering the occasion. One major disappointment was the entertainment. When we booked through Emily Badman, the Events and Sales Manager, we were informed that Denise DeMille, a semi-finalist from Britain’s Got Talent, would be performing. However, on the night, a different artist played, and we were not notified of this change beforehand. This was especially frustrating since our group of seven had been looking forward to Denise’s performance as part of the evening’s appeal. Despite these minor setbacks, the overall experience was fantastic. The ambiance, staff, and food (though portion sizes could improve) were all wonderful. We highly recommend River Station for special occasions, but a bit more transparency about entertainment changes and adjustments to portion sizes would make the experience truly exceptional.

Awful very over priced food. Had the audacity to expect a tip

What restaurant in 2024 cannot cater for vegetarian customers? I understand that you may want to offer an oldschool meaty Christmas dinner but for goodness sake have a back up plan so that my vegan friend can at least have some potatoes and gravy with his nut roast (which was smoosh) and carrots (also smoosh for some reason). Nut roast & carrots do NOT make a Christmas dinner! It is little effort to do this, and it's not as if you weren't pre-warned. Also you're in Bristol ffs, you really have no excuse! You ruined his work Christmas meal. You're an established restaurant with good food, have a word with yourself and do better.

We visited on Christmas Eve. We had booked for the Christmas set menu and we’d even phoned a couple weeks before to ask if this menu was going to be available on Christmas Eve and we were told yes. When we got there were however we were only given just a regular menu and some of the options we had been eyeing online weren’t there especially options for the vegetarians and pescatarians in our group. Also worked out more expensive overall. There was no apology or explanation for the Christmas menu not being available. The food was alright. I had the pork rack and tbf it lacked flavour. Pretty bland and I had to add salt and pepper and I’m normally someone who finds most things salty enough. Some of my group ordered the lamb belly and the size of the lamb was tiny - portion I would give a 6year old child at home not even exaggerating here. If you choose to go here, be careful because whatever menu you see online, will likely end up being very different from what they print out on the day and there’s no warning for this. I paid £50 for my share of the hill which was an elderflower presse, sharing bread and olives between three people, pork rack, chunky chips, red wine jus side and and a treacle tart pudding. So I guess it’s reasonable but for Bristol, I would’ve got better tasting food elsewhere for that price.

We had lunch in the Pontoon bar. The food and service were great. The restaurant upstairs was expensive for a lunch and was empty on Saturday. Presumably it's busy in the evening. Very nice Viognier.

Last year, 2023, you will see my review was faultless as it was brilliant. This year it was appalling and now after three visits and with such a poor experience, I will not return. Food was bland and nothing special at all, I had the steak which was cheap, hard to cut and no taste to it, with some veg that was badly presented and small in quantity. Unlike 2023 the waiting staff were not to standard and made the evening feel like a fast food venue. Desserts were bland and nondescript, overall the food was poor. The venue was rammed and very stressful and not comfortable at all with the bar full of drinkers and made a really special occasion unpleasant. As usual ‘top dollar’ charged, when a visit to Burger King would have been better, tastier food and a better atmosphere.

30 of us attended Riverstation for our work Christmas dinner last night. This had taken some organisation prior to visiting and Emily at Riverstation was helpful, professional and polite in helping organise this / accommodate diners with various food allergies/ intolerances. We had a fantastic meal/ evening. The food was delicious, hot and brought out all in good time - so all 30 of us were eating the same course at the same time. There was plenty of time given between courses and people managed to mingle with their colleagues. The staff were polite & helpful throughout, clearing the tables regularly and checking in if everything was okay. The team also accommodated a guide dog with a generous space, water and food bowl. This was a relaxed evening with colleagues with a lovely ambience/ atmosphere, very nice food & the team at Riverstation helped the evening go smoothly. All colleagues commented that they had had a lovely meal and enjoyed their evening. Thank you Riverstation for all your hard work last night, which was very much appreciated.

Food not as good as it used to be, balance of flavours not quite right. Service under pressure from a huge party made a minor mistake with the order but apologised and did not charge for an item given as a misunderstanding. Service generally good.Always a pleasant place to visit

Absolutely fantastic time at The Riverstation last night for our annual Christmas Dinner. Emily, Renato and all the team made our works party go so smoothly and the service was outstanding. I have held our party here for at least the last 5 years, and we come back time and time again because of the service, the ambience and the amazing food! Would recommend to anyone :)

We all had the set Christmas menu. The beef couldn't be cut, given steak knife, still no good. Meal was replaced, still no good. Turkey not too bad. Had a long wait for Cranberry and Horseradish sauce, had nearly finished meal by the time it came, and that was because I ate slowly trying to wait for it. For some reason starters and deserts were served on the smallest plates they had. Crumble had to be sent back as wasn't hot, and not much custard. Appeared to be only 2 staff, who had to work at the bar and serve the meals. Management should organise this better.

We returned to River Station for a second time, hoping to enjoy some drinks. Unfortunately, the lady working behind the bar was quite rude and unhelpful, Her colleague even shouted at us from across the room. This experience was disappointing, especially since we had a relaxing visit in 2023 that prompted our return. Needless to say we promptly left and took our business elsewhere.

Lovely place by the harbour, delicious food, good service and a nice atmosphere.

We had a fantastic meal but we were the only people in the restaurant!!

Food was delicious and service was excellent. Lovely views over the river

Very tasty and attentive, friendly staff. Just one request - if you offer Hendricks Gin you should also have cucumber. We had a very nice evening here.

The service was incredible and the food just the same! I have allergies and really appreciated the care and time the staff spent making sure I could eat a variety of things / gut check the ingredients lists. They even brought out their allergen binder and let me go through it to confirm I was comfortable to eat!

Great venue with great staff. Food is incredible and the view of the water exceptionnal

I have been going to the Pontoon Bar for many years: the new menu is disappointing so will probably give it a miss for a while until the menu changes again. Service fine, space was nearly empty (3 or 4 tables occupied) so atmosphere not great. When the pontoon bar did basics well eg savoury tart, veggie burger, steak and chips it was much better as it catered for a wide range of tastes so more attractive when meeting groups of friends.

Casual dining on the ground floor is charming. Good food from a short menue and cheerful atmosphere. In the main first floor resaurant, it is a bit more formal and posh. Surely the best sunday roast in Bristol! The Riverstation has been firm favourite in Bristol for years, but when push comes to shove, Sunday roast which so often disappoints, really hits the spot here. Really good service and a convivial atmosphere.the Try their roast beef. Sublime.

A group of 3 attended for a meeting up leisurely lunch. Disappointed with small number of unrealistic choices on the lunch set menu so felt forced onto the a la carte. The prices here have risen markedly although the quality of the imaginative dish (we all had the chicken) was very good and a substantially sized portion. Perhaps reflecting that we were there on a Tuesday lunchtime, the restaurant was very quiet which dulled the ambiance Service was attentive enough without us feeling pressured but then time was not an issue for us on this occasion. I suggest some lighter, less complex but good quality dishes on the lunch set menu at its current price would make the experience more attractive.

Often visit here, today just for a beer. We always sit in the lower bar right by the glass wall overlooking the waterfront, or outside on the terrace. Great atmosphere.

I love this place because of the spot closed to the river, the view is lush everywhere you look at. It's surprisingly quiet and perfect for meeting up with your partner, family and friends.

An eclectic menu, we arrived for a light lunch just after 12 noon, both ordered same dish from the menu, disappointed hadn't got it! Having noticed the breakfast menu which finished 15 minutes earlier, we were cheeky and ordered off the breakfast menu. Staff happy to serve us from the breakfast menu. We sat inside, by the window overlooking the water, very pleasant.

Spacious restaurant by the riverfront. Friendly, attentive service. Great food, catering well for special dietary needs. Excellent experience, very good value for money.

I'd been to Riverstation probably 8 or so years ago so took a punt on inviting 4 colleagues to try it out for dinner. We were not disappointed. Although there were a couple of items not available, the options left were perfectly fine. Bear in mind that this is a heavily meat-driven menu although there are several alternatives as well. The wine list is a sensible size (i.e. not too long) and the prices were in line with those for the food - not silly. The presentation on the plate was very good and, other than the odd bone, we cleared every dish. The scallop, mackerel and duck breast starters were excellent and the venison was terrific. The service was very attentive. We somewhat overindulged on the drinks - hence the elevated cost - but you pay for excellent food. I'll certainly go back next time I'm in Bristol.

We had a lovely meal in the restaurant area upstairs. We were seated at a table by the window with views across the harbour which was nice. The food was delicious and the service was warm and efficient.

We have been to Riverstation 5 times since the start of the year. The quantities continue to decrease over time. (Shrinkflation?) Venison without sauce, only a few fries on the side. Address suitable for small stomachs. Bonus: a piece of chewed meat on a vegetarian plate.

We found our meal overpriced and disappointing. The scallops were overcooked and the steak was only okay. We won’t be recommending and unfortunately won’t be returning. Sorry to leave a negative review, we don’t like to.

Excellent food throughout the meal, very pleasant staff, great wine and a fantastic location with lovely views. I'd very happily return if I'm in the area.

Food average for the price.both starters and main courses. Staff are hardworking and willing to help. We had roast dinners, chicken, pork and beef. The beef was very chewy, the manager overheard our conversation and took the meal off the bill. It was nice to have a view of the river but the atmosphere in the restaurant lacked a certain something.

Quite disappointing - found some plastic foil in our food, and the deposit wasn’t refunded for the people that did not turn up.

A go to place as lovely outdoor seating by the water. Decent food and reasonably priced considering location

AMAZING food! We went for a sunday roast and it was melt in the mouth gorgeous. Service was perfect. Thank you so much!

From the moment we arrived and the waiter left us standing for ten mins whilst he set up tables and then rudely asked who we were, we regretted our lunch venue choice. This man gave no eye contact, was not happy to be there and then when serving our drinks spilt a third of my diet coke over my partners lap. There was no apology and he ignored what he had done, not even offering to top up my drink that was now partly on the table and my partners jeans. Unfortunately the experience just got worse with the worse food we have had out in Bristol over the past few years. We ordered chicken, which was a leg, with barely any meat and the triple cooked chips had been reheated in the microwave. Soggy and more like chunks of mash. My mum paid £40 for lobster which was overcooked and shrank to barely any meat. This meal was expensive and KFC would had been a lot nicer. We rebooked here after having a lovely Sunday lunch last year, but we will never book here again! The waiter definitely needs more training in costumer service and the chef needs training on how to cook food properly. Even if they paid us to return we would not after this.

The best Sunday Roast I've had in a very long time. We also had the padron peppers for a starter and they were absolutely delish - the seasoning was amazing and the serving was generous. Nice relaxed atmosphere, great view over the river, friendly service.

Dined here for brunch as a group of 19 (on a weekday), can't fault the team or the food in any way. Pre ordered for convenience and delivery from the kitchen was prompt but not rushed on our arrival. Between us we had ordered at least one of nearly everything on the menu and it was all incredible, fully empty plates all round! Highly recommend the corn ribs

Amazing food and staff! Andy and Alex especially were brilliant at accommodating allergies and made the whole experience a perfect night ✨

This, for my wife and i was an aniversary lunch and I have not been to riverstation for some time but had heard its reputation put it up there amongst the best. Overall the meal was generally lovely. Cooked to perfection and presented in a simple but delicious way. The staff were attentive and whilst at times the service between courses was slow, we were in no real hurry so it worked for us. We had some food for the table. Starters mains and puddings and so pushed the boat out on this occasion. In terms of any feedback i would offer. My wife thought the chicken dish she had was grossly overpriiced for its content which basically consisted of a battered, over fried chicken leg smothered in sauce to disguise its inadiquate proportion. It was mostly drumstick with very little meat and quite dry despite all the sauce. We made these points to our waiter who was quick to fix the issue. In my opinion this dish would be better as a chicken breast, boneless as this would be better value overall. My steak at £45 was at the edge of acceptable for that huge price tag. But it was a special occasion so there you go. However the sides were underwhelming. A beautifully stacked, Jenga style, of literally 6 or 7 chips, triple fried and some small bitter green peppers that were crunchy and no more than barely cooked. We left most of those. I opted for the red wine Jus reduction as a sauce which was inedibly salty due to to the level of reduction and quite thin in its volume. The Marmite mash was a winner though. Really tasty. Finally i have to say the puddings were something to nothing. A small slice of lemon pie with burnt merangue and a couple of rogue raspberry halves trying to make the huge amount of sauceless empty space on the place Look less obvious. Overall a lot of money for an average meal. It was a bit like buying an expensive car only to discover that it had brown velour seats and a 1970 cassette player. I would go back but be more critical at the time and certainly not as a special event meal such as it was for my wife and I. 6/10.. could do better. Oh and before I forget, a glass of Malbec at almost £13 is outrageous!

Location bellissima sopra la baia di Bristol, bell’ambiente, personale attento e gentilissimo, un ringraziamento particolare al direttore di sala italiano che mi ha sistemata benissimo anche se avevo prenotato per errore al piano di sotto (stessa proprietà ma menù diversi), un’altro grazie alla cameriera super carina che mi ha consigliato un contorno particolare e gustosissimo!! Cibo eccellente ottima presentazione e finalmente un cracker per l’aragosta che funziona bene!!

Fantastic location overlooking the water. Decor tasteful. Staff amazing as was the service. They were knowledgeable and friendly. The food was absolutely outstanding!!!

We attended a Jazz night and paid £20 for the music. We also ordered a plate for two. The food was delicious, and the service was lovely. The music was okay, but we didn’t feel it justified the extra charge. The atmosphere was nice, and the restaurant itself is charming. However, we didn’t enjoy the dessert—the chocolate polenta was too greasy. In the end, we paid £180 for the meal, including a whisky and a glass of wine, plus £20 for the music, bringing the total to £200. We felt that the price was not justified by the overall experience. The day after, the restaurant manager called me and refunded the £20, which was very nice of them to recognize the issue. Thanks to this gesture, I will now give them 4 stars ⭐️.

Lovely place! We were there from Scotland to celebrate a friends birthday and had a brilliant evening!

Part of a large group, we pre ordered the set menu which was a good price and good choice of food. Service was very good for the whole group. Looked after the special diets with care, and great location.

Lovely food and excellent service. Thanks to our server Salvatore

We just had the most amazing wedding reception in the Pontoon Bar - Emily, Maria and the team made the experience faultless from start to finish! The bar and the views make for such a good party, but the food, drinks and service were the standouts. Emily and Maria helped with all our queries and requests, even creating a bespoke sharing platter with 2 weeks to go when we realised we’d ordered the wrong one! They went above and beyond and would highly recommend. Thank you so much!

Thanks nick Maria and Alex you were all amazing ❤️

Not many people there so atmosphere a bit subdued.

The food was lovely, nice steak and veggie options. We felt the prices were high and it would probably make us think twice about booking again. We eat out a lot so are used to a variety of food options and prices but came away feeling slightly unhappy. The restaurant was quiet even though it was Saturday night so not a buzzy atmosphere. Shame really as we had our wedding reception here seventeen years ago and really loved the place.

Great cuisine, a bit pricey but worth it. Very quiet, ideal for a dinner for two. Service was great, the lady in charge that evening was super nice.

We had a Sunday lunch here yesterday. My husband and I both chose the Porchetta. The meal arrived fairly well presented. However, once I removed the Yorkshire pudding, it exposed the Porchetta. The Porchetta was literally a coil of fat - it wasn’t cooked well at all - no crispiness and just several centimetres of pork in the middle, of a load of fat. It was disappointing that someone in the kitchen had thought this was acceptable to send out to customers, when it would have been totally inedible. We mentioned it to the waiter and the meals were taken back to the kitchen, to be cooked correctly. However, just the fact that this happened is extremely offputting and disappointing in a fairly expensive restaurant. We have had far superior Sunday lunches elsewhere. The waiting staff were pleasant but they seemed extremely short staffed with just the two of them. Definitely wouldn’t recommend this place.

The staff were very helpful and friendly. The service was excellent. The food was excellent. I had the ribeye medium rare. The last time I had a steak cooked that good. I was in the USA. We will visit again. When we come back to Bristol

The restaurant was clean and well represented. We were made very welcome. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The food was excellent. I had a ribeye. (Medium rare). The last time I had a steak that good. I was in the USA. Well done to you.

It was such a fantastic experience! The service was impeccable, the setting was stunning, and the cuisine was exceptional! My wife said it was the best lobster she had ever eaten, and my ribeye steak was cooked to perfection! I love their little referb tweaks within the restaurant, too! All in all, I'm very impressed!!

Delicious food, lovely view across the harbour.

Lovely Sunday Roast, clean and friendly

A really lovely evening with great tasting food, lovely wine and a nice atmosphere. It's not a cheap place to eat but worth it for a special treat as the food was so flavoursome.

Very professional team at the Riverstation. We were made to feel very welcome for my Dad's 80th birthday, enjoyed the food and the service was really friendly and helpful. Would definitely reccommend this restaurant to anyone thinking of booking!

Gorgeous views over the river, amazing food and drinks and kids were really well catered food as a huge bonus! I would say it’s fine dining, such high quality food and beautiful taste. 100% recommend. Might seem expensive at face value but it’s really well priced.

Amazing food, beautiful veranda & great service. We had the fish special for the day and both really enjoyed it. Leo was our server and made sure we had a brilliant experience. Would definitely recommend and come back again.

Food was delicious. Great place for dining with a family group. Service was excellent!.

Popped in for lunch, I had the flat bread with beef. It was fantastic. Very well presented and delicious

Nice place by the river. Well decorated and really comfortable. The Sunday roast was amazing and the waitress super nice! We really had a fantastic lunch! Would definitely go back there!

Excellent service given a table upstairs and outside in the sunshine Food was great and the staff definitely Will return

Came a couple weeks ago and had the steak and fries. I would say it was atleast med well rather than med rare but it was still really good, the combination of the steak and the rocket/salsa/cheese was what made it for me. I'd say the salsa was more like a pesto but still it was so good and the fries were amazing too! we did have to chase for our wine and the glasses had to be replaced with polished ones but was no big deal. The location and views of the place are definitely amazing. I would definitely come back and order this again, been thinking about this meal ever since!

A surprise from our son and his partner for my husband's 70th birthday - what a treat it was - beautiful location, great service, lovely food and good price - I'm a coeliac and the gluten free options were great - my son's partner is vegan and she too was spoilt for choice - fabulous

Met a friend for lunch on a beautiful sunny day so sat outside in the pontoon. The food was good, cider and wine lovely with nice relaxed service… a great lunch 🙌👍

Gorgeous location in central Bristol. Staff were extremely polite and efficient. A table of four, we all thoroughly enjoyed our dishes. Would definitely recommend.

I wanted to let you know, after our visit today. My husband rang ahead, booked and told you we were celebrating our ten year wedding anniversary. We were handed 2 menus from the bar and told to sit wherever we wanted. The lady on the phone had said she’d reserve us the nicest table so that message didn’t get passed on. Our wine (£46) a bottle wasn’t chilled so we were asked if we wanted an ice bucket!! We ordered side which were forgotten about, when I reminded the waitress we were told that we’d have to wait for them as there was a problem. When we left there were cardboard boxes everywhere by the bar. The Australian guy at the bar was awful. Won’t be returning.

The best risotto in England and part of the world. Very friendly staff. Very welcoming restaurant and reasonable prices.

This should easily be a four star restaurant but, from my experience, the service and a few other things let it down. Let’s start with the food though. Good menu choices and good to see some steaks hung to mature in a display cabinet. The scallops starter I had wasn’t paired right I don’t think - the sauce was too strong for the gentle sweetness of scallops. Next to the steak - well, it was very good produce but, my medium rare came as medium and when 35% of your overall steak is fat, you feel a bit hard done by given the price of the steak. The fries were also disappointing. Soft on the inside but soft on the outside too, so no crispness to them. And the salad leaves the steak came with were just a waste of time, no seasoning or dressing on them. A saving grace for the steak though was the red jus, which was amazing. What bumped the whole experience up mind was the cheesecake, which was by far one of the best I have had. So to the service. We had a table for 8 booked for lunch and we arrived to an empty restaurant, which was fine. Not sure why they couldn’t find our booking (they did eventually) and someone tried to seat us at a 6 table despite us confirming we needed a table for 8. We had to chase placing a food order and getting the bill, so we were left too long at times. They didn’t have enough menus printed for that day, and the drinks order took too long. As a table for 8, with mainly only soft drinks, the bill at over 700 was a lot for an overall experience of a 3 star restaurant.

Lovely evening. After some confusion regarding menu (website showing restaurant menu available in the bar - it’s not) the staff couldn’t have been more helpful allowing us to have the menu we expected. Thank you as this was a celebration evening it could have been a damp squib. Service was good and food excellent

These guys were brilliant when we had our wedding April 2nd 2024. They looked after us and the cost was really reasonable.

Many months ago I made a reservation for my wife's birthday. We had friends flying in from all over the world for it. With 4 weeks to go Riverstation sent an automated email to say they were cancelling on us - due to a renovation. We emailed back, and someone finally called. They explained they couldn't possibly call everyone affected so they sent an automated email. She didn't really apologise properly, just a 'sorry, it's not our fault. We don't have control over it.' No offer of a voucher or anything to try and make the situation right.

We held our post-wedding meal here and Emily was fab in helping us to arrange the day. Excellent food, location and service, especially accomodating our dog 😁☺️ thank you all!

We used the Riverstation for a private event which was a 3 course meal, drinks and speeches. I worked with Emily to organise and she was really helpful throughout. All the staff were friendly and welcoming which just added to the already brilliant atmosphere. The food was perfect and all guests had a fantastic afternoon. Thank you!

Fantastic food!! So worth the visit and the service was impeccable… Renardo was so warm and welcoming and everything was spot on… a must-visit for anyone who loves great food and succulent seafood..!

Not what it used to be. No sharing plates in the bar anymore. No soap in any of the 3 dispensers in ladies. Staff I told seemed rather irked by this news

We've been regular visitors to the Riverstation for years, usually to the Pontoon bar, but this time we'd received a Sunday lunch gift voucher for the upstairs restaurant. Someone came to take our food order but we said we'd like drinks first. When they eventually came we ordered bread and olives to share followed by a roast beef lunch for each of us. Having waited a considerable time for the olives and bread we were just about to call a waiter to find out where they were when he arrived with our main courses. We complained that we hadn't had our starter yet so please would he take it off the bill. A short time later the manager came over to apologise and offered to bring the starter for no charge but we declined as we were just about to start on the beef. It didn't appear to be very busy, there were a couple of larger parties there but the staff didn't seem very focused. We paid at the bar as no-one came near for us to ask for the bill. It's the first time we've left the Riverstation without leaving a tip. It's our view that standards are slipping. All in all it was a disappointment and, while we may be back for the Pontoon bar, it's unlikely we'll return to the restaurant.

Food was amazing, lots of choices for people with different taste preferences. Felt very cared for during our post wedding lunch
