The food was good for a cheap meal. I was fascinated as used to go here over 50 years ago when I was on a split shift at the local hospital. It's still very recognisable inside.

Another lovely night in the Gunner, Lisa and the rest of the staff were friendly helpful warm and welcoming as usual. It's a modern pub offering an old fashioned personal experience. Food is lovely and very reasonably priced. The team at the Gunner always try to accommodate your needs where possible. A very rare experience in the modern age, we travel as far as the south of Spain and the Highlands of Scotland (regularly) and can honestly say that this is quite a unique experience, all down to the team at the Gunner, thanks team see you again very soon.

We were a party of 6 with a booking for the Christmas meal on Saturday 23rd December. My elderly Mam who has dementia starting shouting & swearing & crying out. The waitress Lisa was absolutely fantastic with our Mam & came over & talked to her & put her at ease, bringing her little treats & making a huge fuss of her. You could see this was so genuine & that she had such a caring nature. We were so grateful & so appreciative to Lisa for this small but huge gesture. Lisa, you are a credit to yourself & the Gunner are so lucky to have such a lovely thoughtful team member.

Male member of staff was abrupt. Food was basic, kids meals were way too small. Adult meal was tasteless and overcooked. Following on from my review and a recent call to the Gunner, I am happy to report a positive outcome and have respect for which my issue was dealt with. Thank you.

Festive Fayre that was absolutely delicious. Started with prawn cocktail followed by traditional turkey dinner which was nice and hot. The table was set for Christmas, napkins and Christmas crackers. Food was served when we wanted it with exceptional service. Highly recommend and we might just be back for another!! The Gunner really is one of the best pubs around.

Visited on a busy Saturday afternoon just before a footy match was due to be shown on the TV's, as we didn't have a booking were were allocated a 'reserved' table and advised we would need to have finished in a couple of hours which was fine. After ordering food we were served by a very nice lady called Lisa, who to be honest was probably one of the best serving staff in the whole Green King chain of pubs and restaurants, very professional, chatty and not in your face like some others. As my son has very recently moved to the area I am very limited visit again very soon. Thanks Lisa you were great.

As a coach driver, it's not easy to find somewhere with great food and hospitality. I came across this pub back at the end of 2019 and found it to be very warm and welcoming with great food. As I was in the area again in April 2023 I went straight to this pub and I found it still to be warm and welcoming, clean and tidy. Still serving good food. I will be back again. Keep up the good work in these hard times.

Always a great place to visit, whether you're popping in for a few beers with friends, a meal with friends or even dining alone you are always made to feel welcome by the staff. A great pub to watch sports in, with plenty of TVs, it's difficult to miss the action. Food is good value for money with plenty to choose from, you are covered from light snacks to juicy burgers and tender steaks.

Really can’t thank the management and all of the staff enough for all of the care they give to my elderly mum. Week after week they make sure she is looked after, make sure she gets home safe and they check up on her when she doesn’t turn up for her weekly lunch. They go above and beyond and my family and I are so thankful. These are old fashioned values that are rare in this era and really demonstrates how much this pub and staff are valued across the local community. Food is always tasty and good servings. A gem of a local pub.

Visited the Gunner yesterday heavy rain and cold. Ordered the all day breakfast which arrived hot and looking good, the negative was that as I was about to start my meal a member of staff decided to open the back door, it was pouring down and the draught was terrible on my back ( table 14) as the door was open all the time, I was so cold and uncomfortable that I left.

If I could give a non star rating I would, its shocking going there for food, I really don't know why I bothered but had my daughter with me walking past she wanted food so we went in, from past experience I knew it was going to a waste of time & money & my gut feeling was spot on waited 45 mins for food tasteless small portions, after ordering from the App I got told to do it at the bar in future it seems to be so short staffed all the time same two people rushing around. Had to take my daughter to get a burger on way home, she told me not to kick off with the service so I did not if on own I would of it was awful, I know a greene king manager & he has told me its a troubled boozer not great service at all no one can seem to get it right. But never again keep walking towards the takeaways

Fabulously restored iconic building. This area has been completely refurbished over the past few years with the road moved and a new pedestrianised area facing the sea and connecting with the refurbished seafront promenade. Good shops bars and restaurants. Look for the lyrics to the Dire Straits song about Spanish City carved into the floor.....

Great hotel with amazing view if you are facing the beach. A short 5 minute walk from the front door and you'll have sand at your feet. Lovely staff and restaurant. All very clean and quiet. Room was fitted with tv with a great picture and size of screen. Air con in the room was fab as the heating is on with it being winter. Proper plug sockets in the room was a plus for me also. I have enjoyed my say and the gorgeous sunrise and sunset here. Highly recommend and high chance of return.

Found this pub on a weekend away trip, popped in for a pint, good lager & selection of other drinks, good traditional boozer with mod cons, very cheap drink, (2 pints for less than £6), bar staff very attentive & full of information. Went back on Saturday nt, and it had live music on, pub was busy, band were excellent, played old & new rock hits, atmosphere was great. Will definitely visit again if I'm down the way.
