Slipway Hotel and Restaurant in Cornwall, Isles of Scilly - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

This has to be the Worst place I ate in Cornwall all week The calamari was like rubber worst calamari I’ve had in my life and the haddock chips was like a micro meal. Can’t believe I spent £80 in this place

We popped in for cups of tea after walking around Port Issac. Sevice was poor, the waitress rude. We asked for 3 cups of tea and a pot of hot water for one of our group as that is all she drinks. We also asked for some tap water. We were told that we had to purchase water at the bar, either bottle or still. We wanted tap water, not tricky. We explained by law that tap water should be available but she wasn't interested at that point. So OK, onwards and upwards. The 3 cups of tea arrived and the pot of hot water for our friend. When we asked for a cup for the hot water she indigently asked "why" ? I explained politely that she would like to drink her hot water out of a cup not the pot. The waitress that served us told us to check Google as to laws on tap water as we were wrong and she was right. The whole attitude of the place was very poor, as they are in prime position by the harbour, but we will not be returning, which is a shame as two of our group are locals.

Popped into The Slipway for lunch as we were passing by and can whole heartedly say we had a fabulous experience! We were very well accommodated to our table, being given the choice ourselves of where we’d like to eat. The menu served all tastes - allowing us to have the cheeseboard dessert as a main!! Service was quick & friendly. The portion sizes were unanticipatedly large & super filling (takeaway boxes are available). There is no skimping out here: we had the cheese and chutney sandwich (which was filled past the brim, some would say like a door stop sandwich) that was delightful fresh! Secondly the cheese board had a variety of quality cheeses, fresh ciabatta & plenty fruit and chutney. Finally the cheesy chips like no other - there was no skimping out here - the chips were fresh and fluffy with a lovely crisp finish that was well complimented by the layer of flavourful cheese melted throughout all the chips! Overall had a delightful experience and would without a doubt return here! (cannot comment on rooms or accommodation as we did not stay here)

This spot has a prime location. Unfortunately our experience was not the best. The two ladies waiting the tables were great, despite forgetting half of our order. However, the chap behind the bar needs to improve his customer service. He was quite rude when taking the order and even declined one glass of tap water. His response being that if he gave everyone tap water, the tables would be filled with non paying customers. How ridiculous, spending over £40 on coffee and cake, the fruit in the muffins still frozen, obviously wasn't enough for him. Never mind, there are plenty of other places to get food if required.

Staff were very friendly on our arrival, despite not booking a table they were able to accommodate us and our 2 dogs. Food was hot and plenty of it, mussels were out of this world. Just felt drinks and pudding was a little over-priced otherwise a lovely place to eat.

A very different experience to that of a few years ago when it was a much more down to earth pub throwing out great quality meals. We ate here a few days ago. Eye watering, over priced drinks (£7.50 for a pint), glass of Sauvignon £12. Food very average. The attached picture is what they call crab nachos £24!!!!!! Literally approx 10 cold nachos (with one chip thrown in somehow) and a sprinkling of crab meat. The bowl size was that of a cereal bowl. Speechless and taking huge advantage of their position in Port Issac.

Friendly and fast service, ordered a crab sandwich and a drink each , got our food quickly and food was lovely and tasty , waitress was friendly but price was WOOOOOOOOAH high when crab sandwhich was half the price up the hill which we didn’t know until afterwards. Toilet situation was not great either , one cubicle for women making awkwardness when busy.

The best meal I have had in years. I eat out regularly in London and Bath. The chicken Ballotine was the best I’ve eaten in years. Superb taste. Cleaned the plate. Also good value. Highly recommend

£7.20 for a pint. Says it all……& it was a shandy!!!Nice place to have a pint but the prices are way too high. Won’t be going back in a hurry.

Fabulous food especially the mussels, we had the risotto and the crab salad followed by the blueberry cheesecake which was delicious. The drinks are a little overpriced but I guess you’re paying for the location and ambience of the restaurant so we didn’t mind. Lovely staff and service and a cosy restaurant upstairs. One of the best meals I’ve had in a long time. Thanks to the team

Steven and Donna are fine hosts who know how to look their customers. Quick service and courteous manners make this the perfect spot for a beer or a brew!

Warm welcome and great food, although the crab salad wasn’t available. The chips were amazing. I had the Haddock scotch egg and salad whilst the better half had a deep fried poached egg on mushrooms etc. the others had proper fish finger sandwiches, nowt of a packet here.Would happily go back if it wasn’t over 200 miles away!

Absolutely love this place, first time visiting & Steve was so friendly & the chef couldn’t do enough for you, would definitely recommend this place to anyone who is visiting the area

Perfect spot for a really lovely meal in Port Isaac. Everything we ate was delicious but the mussels were maybe the best I’ve ever had!! Caught that day. Lovely staff and fab experience 😊

Stopped in here for a drink with family and friends whilst on holiday. The drinks are extremely overpriced. £3 for a half pint of draught coke (not bottled) £7.10 for a pint of lager and £3.80 for a J2O….the prices are far too high for a run of the mill establishment, there’s nothing special about this place whatsoever!! However, the most shocking part of the visit was being charged £19.50 for 3 packets of crisps and 3 packets of nuts….my daughter came back from the bar and told us she’d been charged that, we didn’t believe her and thought she’d made a mistake, only for the barman (Mr happy) to confirm the price was Infact correct when my husband queried it!! This means they’re charging £3 for a 40g packet of crisps and £3.50 for a packet of peanuts! They are completely taking advantage of the fact they are based right on the harbour and ripping people off, it’s disgusting to charge the prices they are charging. Reading other reviews about this place confirms to me many other visitors have been unhappy. Please AVOID this place, don’t give them your hard earned money, spend it elsewhere in Port Isaac where the prices are more reasonable and the staff actually make an effort to be friendly!

We thought we would have a wander into Port Issac, we were getting hungry and we saw The Slipway on the corner with outdoor seating, where people were already sat and stood around. There were no times on the door, and Google said they were open from 10am, so thought it would be an ideal place to stop to get some food, as it looked assessible for the disabled people within our party. Within minutes, a miserable old man came charging into the courtyard and screamed at everyone in an aggressive manner. "Everyone needs to leave now" and "Get out of here" - an awful way to speak to anyone, let alone the people keeping your business running. Absolutely awful man. Maybe he should update the times on Google or display clear opening times. In hindsight, I am glad it wasn't open. We would much rather give our hard earned money to businesses that treat people with respect. We ended up getting food from the bakery, where the woman was so cheery and friendly. Delicious too. Would give this establishment a miss though, your money would be better spent else where. Looking at previous reviews, it seems this is a regular occurance.

We had relaxed afternoon drinks and snacks at the Slipway sitting outside under a canopy. Staff were friendly and welcoming and service efficient and attentive throughout our visit. We had light bites which were reasonably priced and good value given the portion sizes and quality. Dog friendly too.

Sadly this restaurant is best avoided, unless you just want fish and chips, which looked ok. Regrettably, I ordered the pan-fried hake, which tasted of anything but fish, I presume having been over-cooked in the burger and everything else pan. It was not edible. The service was tired and end of season, and did not encourage me to complain.

Called in for a light late lunch, nice greeting by friendly and efficient staff, ordered fish finger sandwich, leek & potato scotch egg and a portion of fries to share. All was absolutely delicious and the service was spot on!

We visited beautiful Port Isaac recently and stopped at The Slipway for lunch, deciding to sit outside and take in the harbour views. The staff didn't acknowledge us whilst waiting for them to raise the ropes - they were setting up tables, but we felt they were really quite rude. When we looked at the menu, we were surprised to see how expensive the food was, we were going to have a crab sandwich until we saw the price of £25! We summised the food must be good, so we opted for a cheaper option of a cheese and chutney sandwich with a cocktail. The sandwich arrived, the bread was nice and there was sufficient cheese, but barely any apple chutney and the side salad consisted of slimy lettuce and spring onions that were certainly not freshly cut, they were brown on both cut ends. I'm annoyed with myself now, for paying £58 for two basic sandwiches with slimy side salad (£13.50 each), along with two gin cocktails (£14 each) and a small glass of coke (£3!). It was busy (!) and not having seen the family member I was having lunch with for a number of years, I didn't want to waste our time complaining. I only wish I'd read reviews prior to choosing to eat here. Please AVOID THE SLIPWAY at Port Isaac, don't waste nearly £60 on two basic sandwiches and two drinks (plus a small coke!!), try somewhere else!

Wonderful experience from start to finish. Reasonably priced and delicious food. But more than any thing service was second to non by a blond haired girl who couldn’t do enough for everyone. Will definitely be recommending to all. 5⭐️

Got absolutely ripped off for half a cup of filter coffee and then they tried to overcharge me at the till. It is supposed to open at 12 but they made us wait at their pretend barrier until 12:15 for no reason. Absolutely terrible. Actually felt sorry for the waitresses. Avoid like the plague!

The eye-watering pan-cornwall car park charges were beginning to make us feel like the fleeced laughing stock of the locals - until we met Jemima at the slipway. She went the extra mile to help us out so the Cornish and we are friends again. Thankyou Jemima!

Absolutely disgusted, I have come here with my family whist were on holiday celebrating a birthday (27/08/23) We came here for coffee/tea/hot chocolate, price is expensive but also expected with where its based so that's nothing to do with it. The facet is that we came in ordered 5 hot chocolates 1 tea and 1 cappuccino... its took 29 minutes too come out. The table that came in after us with about 20 of them was a big group multiple families, they'd ordered drinks and got them before us and even worse they had ordered meals for each of them and they came out before 6 hot drinks which is absolutely ridiculous. They came out and were warm they weren't hot at all. Couldn't fault the taste as it was nice but the fact that they were cold didn't help the taste, if your ordering a hot chocolate you want it to at least be hot? Right? .none of the 4 hot chocolates were hot. Which made it worse as we had waited 29 mins for cold hot chocolate. The next part is which fully disgusted me and my mother who went to pay. She asked "how was everything" and we replied with not great the drinks were cold and took 30 odd minutes for them too come out. She replied with oh shame and said its not magic theres 1 girl on coffee machine. Which was awfully rude. We know its not magic but instead of pacing about maybe give her a hand. I came in too see the tray of hot chocolates on the side and had asked if I could help carry the tray out as I do it for a living too so I do understand it's hard work. I'm really just upset about how nasty the lady was about it, she said she didn't care and kept shoving the card machine in our face and said she's not gonna do anything. Didn't even bother to apologise for the wait. Have been to port issac many times as its a lovely place and just wanted to sit and have drinks in a nice resturaunt but have been fully let down and left feeling angry towards the women who had nothing to say but she didn't care.

Well, where do I start....... on entry, a sign stated to wait to be seated which we did...... for a considerable amount of time. A bullish looking lady with dark hair who looked like she was having a very bad hair day kept coming out...

I came to Port Issac thinking I would find pasties and frozen chips, I was wrong! The slipway provided a simple menu that was well presented and delicious. I never thought that the mid week staple of a fish finger sandwich would be so tasty. Also try the Moules they were brilliant. They serve good ale and the service was great. What do you do with a drunken sailor? Send him to the Slipway.

Although the breakfast was nice we were amazed that we added 3 slices of white toast and didn't realise the price untill after we had paid. £7.50 for 3 slices if toast.... no butter just toast!!

The sign said wait to be seated. We were stood waiting for a good few minutes. It was busy and we could see the waitress was somewhat a busy attending to other customers. She could see that we were waiting. However, she should have acknowledged...

Whilst the food was nice, I was astonished about how expensive our bill was. It was made even worse by the fact that we were not even served genuine coca-cola. The fish and chips were a small portion for the price You are definitely over...

I’m not tight by any means but £29.85 for three cream teas was such a rip off. We were expecting something special for that price but it wasn’t even nice.

Absolutely delicious, well cooked and beautifully presented breakfast! Lovely breakfast menu and I really appreciated the gluten free options too!The staff and owners are wonderful too - highly recommend!!

The slipway was a disappointment overall. The lady behind the bar was lovely but the chap who was front of house barely filled us with confidence. The food was prepared well, the choice was OK, at best. The cost was extortionate, probably priced based on...

'Cheesey' Chips £7, Chips £5, Pint of 'Lime Cordial' £4, Pint of Diet Coke £4.60, Manager's 'customer service' absolutely priceless!!!

I don’t often write reviews but I felt so appalled by this establishment I had to. We were ordering a cream tea and having been here in previous years and had some nice scones we were expecting the same again. Sadly this was not the...

Very bad customer service, please do not go here, bad experience. Many other better options in port Isaac

We called in mid afternoon for a drink and snack. The staff were very pleasant and we ordered drinks and a crab sandwich. At £27 you expect something fairly special. The sandwich consisted of two slabs of bread separated by some crabby mayonnaise with a...

We ordered a coffee and hot chocolate. The coffee came quickly but not the hot chocolate. My husband got up and asked the guy who took our order where the hot chocolate was and he said it was on its way. Ten minutes passed and...

Crab sandwich £27!!!. Need I say more. Kiosk over the road sells a large crab caught the day before by their own boats, cooked on the premises, £11. Staggered people pay this much.

Very good menu we have mussels and fish and pasta all cooked very well. The service we quick and all the staff are polite and attentive

Stopped here this morning, ordered three hot chocolates-extra hot and one coffee. The hot chocolates came out lukewarm and we had to send them back to be heated up and they were very weak. Not the best experience.

Gorgeous spot with fantastic food and even better service. A big family group (16) turned up without a booking and were welcomed with open arms, all our service was impeccably friendly and professional. All food was gorgeous and drinks were all served quickly. Would highly...

Wonderful service and really good food in an old style inn made for a really fun dining experience. Outdoor seating was also available where you can see the Slipway water view. I also had tea and scones....fantastic!

Wow, take out a loan before you go. Me and my partner were visiting from Surrey, so have not lived a sheltered life when it comes to how much things cost. That said, I was speechless at the prices, the food itself was more than...

Went in on the last evening of our stay in Port Isaac. Friendly staff, excellent food and a pleasant atmosphere. So glad we took the time to book a table the day before. Will definately be back when we visit again

A wonderful place to stop for a cream tea. We sat outside on a warm summers day and enjoyed a typical Cornish cream tea. A warm & friendly atmosphere, we would return.

Booked several weeks ago, because we are on holiday. There was 4 of us, they had no garlic bread, no onion ring, wouldn't make a sandwich? 3 very poor but privacy meals. When asked for desserts, didn't have any. We were told kitchen was closing after tonight. Would not recommend.

Just stopped for our Corniche Cream Tea. Friends all with dogs. Very friendly host accommodated us inside. Quaint place with warm and welcoming atmosphere. And the cream tea. Well, I should just say amazing. Delicious. And plenty. Definitely a place to stop for a break.

Stopped here for coffee sitting outside under cover. Great for people watching. Quite pricey but it is in the middle of a 'tourist trap'. Good quality drinks.

The food was of such poor quality that one meal was discreetly returned to the kitchen as inedible, a burger with a distinct smell and tainted taste. The response from staff was one of distain and disinterest. Back at our table, within hearing distance of other diners, I was challenged regarding my opinion of the returned food. There was no apology forthcoming and we were basically ignored for the remainder of the time we spent on the premises. Not only would I rate this eatery as zero but will be reporting it to environmental health ..... purely on the basis that constructive and polite criticism was treated with such blatant disregard.

Lovely homemade food great portions best cream tea we’ve had on our trip warm crumbley and fluffy yum! Great service and a warm welcome form the lady who had curly hair (sorry didn’t get name)

Quirky building in great setting. Seared tuna on spiced lentils was delicious. Friendly staff and good choice of food.

We had fish and chips which were really tasty and perfectly cooked. The place is really nice but prices let it down very expensive compared to others

Had lunch here, extremely disappointed in the crab sandwiches. More salad and mayonnaise than crab, supermarket sliced bread. Very expensive, £98 , 3 crab sandwiches, 1 cheese and tomatoe, 2 beers, 1/2 a beer and cider!

Just had a delightful lunch here. The mussels were superb and plentiful. Great customer service and lovely view of the harbour. Tables well spaced and regularly cleaned. Really good service too.

We had to wait a while to be seated and it didn't feel like the cleanest of places. My husband had been dying to try out crab but they didn't have any !!!We settled for sandwiches - cheese and chutney and BLT, ok but nothing special and expensive. The wait for food was very long. We sat in the outside area watching the world go by and enjoying the harbour.Please note that this place allows dogs, this is fine for us even though we don't have one. But some customers had 3 large dogs, one of which was not friendly towards any of the other dogs that came in. To have dogs snarling and barking around you when you are eating is not very good.The best thing about this restaurant was definitely the location

Our family is really fussy so a 5/5 rating is rare from us, but the Slipway Cafe really deserved it. We went last week for a meal at about 5pm (my husband and I and 2 young children). My husband had fish and chips, which was quite simply the best fish and chips he has ever had in his life, just perfect. Most battered fish is disappointing, soggy or overcooked, but this was just beautiful - even the fussy 18 month old ate it and that's saying something!! I had Thai Green Vegan curry, which was also delicious. The staff were kind to our noisy, disruptive children and we had a lovely meal. Only little thing was that the desserts were £9 and we thought this was a bit much, most similarly priced restaurants charge £7, which we would have paid, but not £9 so icecreams from a gift shop it was.

After a short wait outside whilst a free table was found in the busy restaurant. The two waitresses were efficient and friendly even though they were extremely busy. It was worth the wait after ordering. The food was excellent, my wife ordered the mussels and a bucket arrived , more than 2as expected and thoroughly enjoyed. And it wasn't overpriced. I would heartily recommend.

We booked a table 2 months in advance as we were so eager to eat here. At first we were seated outside but they moved us inside once we asked to. All our food was absolutely delicious (highly recommend the mussels!) All staff were incredibly friendly and helpful.

We are certainly on a roll this week with the quality of the restaurants and cafes. The slipway was really good. We pre booked a table and sat outside watching the world go by. Everyone commented on the excellent food with selections of Hake and Burgers but the real star was the Thai Green Curry, absolutely the best I have tasted in years with a proper spicy heat most do not achieve. I had the vegetable one but there was also a seafood option which one of the table had and the result was the same "outstanding". Staff were marvellous, friendly chatty and fast, with the food served with a heavy sprinkling of fun and good humour. 5 star rating for a 5 star experience.

We visited twice last week. They managed the challenges of a week with staff and supply issues for the whole village with a calm good humour and lovely service. We really enjoyed our food and the atmosphere. Thank you for saving the day. Would definitely return and recommend.

Well worth the queue for a table. Extremely friendly and welcoming servers. Food was brought timely and each of us enjoyed our food. (That never happens lol!) Well done to them for achieving such high standards at such a difficult & busy time at the moment. Highly recommend.

We had such an amazing meal at The Slipway that we actually rebooked for 2 nights later! The food was fresh and delicious and even my fussy 9 year old was happy. The staff were very friendly. The only reason I have given 4 stars and not 5 is that the restaurant currently stops serving food from 6pm due to a staff shortage, but I'm sure this will be rectified in due course, and is probably due to covid! We would definitely visit again.

We were a large family group with a young baby and dogs and the restaurant was very accommodating. The food is delicious with huge portions and was served all together and in good time. Location is beautiful and it’s worth stopping on the slipway after to watch the sunset. We returned for a second meal and it was just as good.

Fantastic restaurant, amazing service with lovely staff, and good quality food and drink. Have been twice and will definitely return again

Excellent food , absolutely the best quality muscles I've ever had, all food is locally sourced, I can't fault the food or the staff at all, absolutely perfect, and I will return next time I'm in Port Isacc

We came as a family. The prices were above average for what you would like my expect but the outdoor area was in a great position and the food very good. The staff were also very friendly and attentive so 10/10 on that front.

If you like sitting looking at 3 transit vans and smelling fish then it’s great.If you like waiting 30 minutes for a coffee, lemonade and 2 scones then it’s great.If you like being overcharged (my fault for not realising) then it’s great.I’m sure this place does good food but sadly was a total shambles with the staff not seemingly having a clue and the excuse was that the coffee section was backed up. I went inside and they were all chatting. 2 tables got up and left whilst we sat there due to poor service.Lovely spot and a wonderful village. Chapel cafe looks like the best bet.

Very well located in Port Isaac. My partner and I both opted for fish and chips. The fish was beautifully cooked and the batter thin and crisp. The home made mushy peas blew my mind, they were amazing!!! The waiting staff were so very friendly and were well drilled on the menu. Well done guys

We have seen this pace on regular visits to Port Isaac and today we visited for lunch. What a fantastic place. Great atmosphere and very friendly staff. Would definitely recommend a visit.

Firstly as a party of 9 we always understand it’s difficult to accommodate without booking. The young gentleman greeting us was fantastic very polite and smiley. Instantly accommodated us for a table. All staff was fantastic very helpful & friendly. Food came out together and tasted great. Over all 10/10 service in all areas.

Lovely in the evening for drinks by the Port Isaac harbour, and in the mornings for a coffee and cake. I tried the vegan lemon and blueberry cake and it was fantastic!

We had a family meal here. The mussels were not that tasty. The laksa lacked a mix of veg but was quite tasty. The halloumi burger was good but soggy because of the sauces. It’s very expensive for the standard of food. I wouldn’t go again. However the staff were very good.

Simply awful food & disrespectful service staff. Really poor customer interest as quite clearly taking your money is their only interest.

Lovely staff- lovely coffee and gluten free cake! Historic ambience updated for comfort. Whole family will enjoy the relaxing it allows!

I chose the vegan laksa. Literally the BEST ever vege dish I have eaten out. Spicy, fresh, unusual. My hubby ate a fish dish which he loved too. Absolutely recommend this place, just gotta try n recreate this at home.

Had lunch here , very good food gets busy as right opposite harbour then because golden lion ran out of food we manage to get dinner here which was excellent as was service and price

Called here for drinks and a mid morning snack. was very busy but didnt have to wait to long for a table. Service was very slow and a bit pricey

We had to wait for around 20 minutes for a table even though there were several empty tables outside and more inside. The food and drinks were ridiculously over-priced e.g. £17 for a burger and chips and £9 for a glass of wine, but with so few places to eat by the harbour they have a captive audience. The food itself was very good in fairness to them though not worth the money. The staff were friendly but service was slow.

Stopped here as was hungry and didn’t seem overly busy., as I had about one and half hours left on parking ticket. The location is excellent with views of the harbour food was ok, service was shocking took about 25 minutes before any one took our order and restaurant was quiet. Just got back in time before ticket expired,

Went for lunch at the Slipway cafe today and we had to wait twenty five minutes to be seated. The food but the service was shocking.

Lindsey was excellent front of house. Food was amazing once we ordered we did not wait long for it. We booked out table that day and were lucky to get a place as they were clearly fully booked for the day.

This place will likely always have customers due to its location so maybe that's why the food and service doesn't live up to the location.I realise these are strange times we are living in, but the table reservation service seemed all over the place and we saw two tables told to hurry up and finish their drinks as their tables were reserved.We weren't told we had any time limit, ate some food (maybe 35 mins or so), then ordered drinks. As the drinks were put on the table we were told we'd have to finish them in 5 minutes as they needed the table for other guests. Now I don't mind a challenge but necking a pint in 5 mins after eating food seemed a bit over the top. These aren't student union prices either!I don't mind if on entering we are given a choice and told that the table is only available for 45 mins or so , but to take the food and drinks order and then give a deadline smacks of poor service, even if it was done with good intentions.Great location but a poor experience sadly.

I liked this restaurant. The location for one is superb as it is right opposite the post Issac beach and slipway. The place is buzzing with atmosphere and the food is very good. We ate at 8pm inside on the first floor, a lovely table for two. I had a huge bowl of mussels and my wife had a halloumi salad. Both dishes were excellent. Wine £22 so not bad. The whole bill with tip £85. Not cheap but then nothing is in Post Issac

Smacked of someone’s first attempt at running a restaurant. Need to sort out some basics in the kitchen-gritty mussels, no seasoning in the laksa. Nice enough staff but Front of house chaotic and service haphazard. On the plus side burger was good.

Friendly welcome but waited ages for our drinks to arrive. Decided not to eat there as we thought our car park ticket would have expired by the time we got served! The food prices seemed very expensive.

We visited in April with outdoor service only and we had 2 fantastic meals. The whole experience was brilliant. Amazing food, service and drinks. The rattler on draught was out of this world! Can't wait to return on our next holiday down Cornwall!

Called in for an afternoon tea. We were seated very quickly and our order was taken quite quickly but then we waited and waited, and watched others who had come in after us getting their food served. When it did arrive the scones were so dry they fell apart as you tried to cut them, ending up with lots of pieces of scone on your plate to which you could not add either the jam or the cream. The larger parts of the scone that were left then fell to pieces as you tried to spread anything on them. All in all far from ideal. All in all we sat here for over an hour for two scones, that fell apart, and a pot of te, not god

Had a very lovely lunch here in Port Isaac. Have to say a tad on the expensive side although wouldn’t put me off visiting again. Was doggie friendly and I watched the tables get sanitised in between diners which was good. Definitely recommend!

Had lunch here and sat outside. 2 starters, 3 mains. A fairly long wait for service but the food was ok. Somewhat overpriced for standard pub fare. Couldn’t really say there was anything outstanding about it, sorry!
