Jess served us at the sandpiper and was very lovely! Food came out quickly and served with a smile. Would recommend the sandpiper as somewhere to stop off for a drink and some food.

I have been visiting the sandpiper for over 20 years and it is in the best place it has ever been, under great management (Martin) and his amazing staff. The food is better than ever and they show every sporting event. Kez behind the bar has been a particular highlight, with her friendly professional customer service; making us all feel welcome.

The sandpiper is definitely one of, if not, the best pub and restaurant in the Christchurch area. With everything from good parking, accessibility and outstanding service. Our bartender harry stood out for us as being a hard working member of their team. He ensured our evening was perfect and always went the extra mile. 10/10 would revist 🤌🏻

A great value, family friendly local pub. Matt behind the bar was friendly on arrival and showed us where our table was. The menu is extensive with with plenty of choice. The food arrived quickly and was hot. I enjoyed the Lamb Kofta flatbread, but my son really enjoyed the chicken wings. They had screens showing the evening's football but there were places to sit away from it.

Went here to watch 6 nations rugby as it was advertised outside. 1st half of the England Vs Scotland game was fine, but then some screens went to football. The football commentary went really loud, resulting in everybody needing to shout. Lots of children, swearing adults (I'm no prude, but the foul language was constant). Beer and service was good, but the atmosphere is really poor.

Came for Sunday lunch on our first visit to the area. It’s a lively pub and they show football but even though there were quite a few Liverpool fans in for their match it wasn’t too rowdy. We ordered off the children’s and normal menu and the portion sizes were good and food quality very good. I had some of the nicest gammon I’ve had for a long time, although there were too many onions on the skillet it was served on for me. The fish & chips and chicken nuggets & chip that were ordered were lovely too. Staff are also helpful & welcoming.

We have used this restaurant for many many years and we have never been disappointed. It was very busy but we found a table for two tucked away. We didn’t have to wait too long to be served by a very helpful young lady. I had the fish and chips which was really tasty and cooked just right and not too thick batter. The chips were nice and golden brown. Hubby had gammon with egg and pineapple. He said it was very tasty. Although it was extremely busy the waitress still had time to pop back and ask if everything was ok. Always have had good meals here and always very reasonable priced. It is always tidy and clean

I ordered the all-day breakfast. The only thing I requested was that the egg was well done. It came out barely cooked. It was taken away, and 10 mins later came back (the same food). The egg had been cooked completely, but oddly, the yoke was now not even touching the white of the egg. Sadly now, the plateful of food was now luke warm. I sent it back. Another 10 minutes, everything came back hot (again, the same plate of food), except the baked beans were now stone cold. As the baked beans are served in a small tin cup, I suspect the egg had first time been cooked through in a microwave (hence the strange look of it) and second time everything heated up in a microwave, all except the beans. It was barely edible. I was with family and not in a position to complain again. But sadly, it was only a 1* meal.
