Went for the last night of the season for Halloween. Food buffet was awesome. There was a Halloween party, but didn’t stay for that which was a shame. Place is really good.

As a free entertainment venue it's great but don't rely on it for food. Takes forever to arrive, barely warm and often bits missing

Have been quite a few times during cowboy week, the place was decorated out fantastic the bands and other artists where great, I must pay special tribute to the bar staff who were run of their feet but did such a great job. We only ate there once Pizza, fresh, large with loads of topping very good, looking at other tables all the meals looked very appetizing, will eat there again next time in Brean.

It's okay, food is on the more expensive side but was rather nice! Always ask for medium rare as I know the steak comes out rare 😅 and that's what I want! Staff are friendly and quick service :)

So sad to see its current state. Mostly closed all week and way too expensive. The entertainment if you can catch it is largely disappointing with little to keep the children occupied. It has very expensive parking which puts a lot of people off so most won't even give it a go. I've been coming here every year for 20+ years and this is the first year I simply haven't bothered to spend any time here. A hollow shell of what it used to be.

Really disappointed ! Used to love coming here and was so pleased when we heard it had reopened. Trust me, it's not what it used to be. When we got there (7.30pn) it wasn't that busy at all but most tables had dirty plates. As a family of 9 and no staff around we had to remove the dirty plates and clean the table with wet wipes. Food came and what a disappointment! The fish was so over fried it was chewy.. the steak was full of grisel. No vinegar, the chips were also over fried. No staff around (fair play to the one waitress who was obviously rushed off her feet working solo). No free WiFi anymore. Waste of money. Edit: 2 hours after leaving this review I got quite sick on the evening - I had the fish 🤢

Based on our breakfast it was appalling, stone cold food, stone cold plates, even the toast wasn't toasted on one side! Member of staff asked her colleague if breakfast was still being served at 10.35am when it clearly states 11.45am on the menu. Some nice staff,some with bad attitude,like they didn't want to be there, well find another job then! However the Elvis tribute act was fantastic and like the Seagull of old so 'New Management' are getting something right but have a long way to go to match its previous first class reputation.We won't be eating here again. I got a refund and gave our business to a smashing little cafe very nearby instead which was thriving, why?because they clearly care, polite and welcoming staff, clean, great menu,great food and great price to match.

Would give 0 stars if I could. AVOID!! Ordered food as a family of 4, the first 3 meals came out (Peri peri chicken) waited 10 mins for the 4th meal to come out (chicken tikka) in the time between the first 3 and the tikka we asked the restaurant staff twice where the tikka is. When it was finally out it was stone cold of which we sent it back. Waited another 10 mins for the second attempt of the tikka for that to also be stone cold. Sent that plate back. With no sign of the 4th plate of food we went to speak to the manager to which they replied “it’s not my problem” we asked for a refund but then they refused to give the 4th lot of food back to us (it was going to the youngest in the family) of which we didn’t take as we wanted the food. After MULTIPLE visits back and for the bar to find out where the food was we were no closer to getting anywhere with them. The assistant manager laughed at us when we complained about the food. It was only after 5 other tables consecutively behind us complained of their food being stone cold too is when he offered a full refund for all 4 meals of which we did take. However in the process of trying to get to a solution the manager and assistant manager threatened to call security to remove us as we were complaining about our food. We had to find food elsewhere for the youngest of our family just so she could eat tonight Wouldn’t go there.

Undercooked chunky chips that I took a bite into and said can I have replacement that are cooked. They gave me back the exact same chips albeit stuck back in the frier. I know because the chip I bit into was back on my plate. Surly against health and safety? Curry stone cold & got my sons burger meal completely wrong and just blatantly scraped the things we requested not to be on his plate off and come out saying we happened to have exactly what we ordered available in seconds despite it being covered in coleslaw residue. Imagine my sone was allergic to something and they think this is acceptable. Absolutely disgraceful service.

Undercooked chunky chips. Bit into them and complained. The exact chips reapers after a few minutes including the bit into chips. Surely against hygiene standards? I'm sure other dinners wouldn't' appreciate my saliva in the oil?

If you ever listen to a review listen to this one because honestly I’ve never been more disappointed in a restaurant than I have with the seagul, compared to what this place used to be I can tell you now it has gone downhill and stayed there!! I found plastic wrapping in my coleslaw which I barely even got an apology for just sent a new one out, then a hair in my daughters pizza which they refunded us for but by that point with most of the food coming out cold no one wanted to carry on eating ruined the meal because she wouldn’t eat anything else from there so a wasted night and a wasted £60, the place was dead on a a Sunday night in high season that should of been the red flag we needed to turn round and find somewhere else, if you can’t get food out quick and hot with only two tables of people in there then there’s no hope, probably best to close it back down until they can figure out how to cook food without choking hazards in them!!

2 out of 4 meals came out stone cold and had to be sent back. One of the other meals was a meat free burger but the wrong one came out. Masala curry tasted nothing like a chicken tikka masala curry. We we're only ones in the restaurant, i could understand these mistakes if it was busy. (They did do a partial refund) However it was a wasted night.

Had a family meal, sitting outside under cover. Was really looking forward to the Loaded Fries, as I have had these previously, Pre-Covid and they were fantastic. Unfortunately they were disappointing, not a lot of pulled pork and it wasn’t very tasty. Another member of the family had the pepperoni pizza, it was undercooked. We also had a chilli loaded fries, with half an avocado stone in the guacamole.

Visited twice this weekend and had a great meal both times. Food is good pub grub that you can't go wrong with. Have deals on various nights and can vouch for the pizzas we had tonight. Staff are lovely and polite and provide great service. Been very quiet this week but can imagine it gets busy in high season but there's no shortage of indoor and outdoor seating space. The conservatory is nice for eating in the evening.

There was a choice of 3 meats and a very large choice of vegetables.

The security woman called Jay went above and beyond to make sure we had a good evening. She was very friendly and she gave us the chance to chat with her. She even arranged for a member of the security staff to have a dace with a older woman who had been dancing on her own all night. That was truly amazing of her. Thank you so much for a great evening.

Visited on a Thursday and enjoyed the singer who performed songs from the past 40/50 years. Then attempted to go again on a Friday to find 50% of the seating closed and the open part rammed with people stood at the bar and anywhere there was a space. Failing to find a seat we left disappointed. Drinks are reasonable as the entertainment is free,pity they only open half of the place.

Mixed review: A warm and friendly welcome, clean and tidy. Day one: breakfast was lovely, all appeared freshly cooked so it took a little longer, the food was nice and of great value. Feel like there was a whole can of beans for the 'beans on toast' and it was piping hot. The pot of tea was plentiful The 'coffee' milkshake was more like warm milk, not the best. Day two: ordered the thick shake this time - meant to be with ice cream and so thought that would make it cooler and tastier - wrong, it was the same as the previous visit with cream and sprinkles - not the best (if you want a nice thick iced coffee, visit the White Stones cafe). The food took a bit longer again as it was Sunday and busy. The mushroom on toast was cold but we were on a time crunch, so we couldn't send it back. The taste was nice, just cold and the black pudding was a bit on the rubbery side. Everyone else enjoyed theirs.

A great experience once again. 5th time at The Avenue and it never fails to deliver first class food and service. The students are a credit to the college. Their enthusiasm and attention to detail make the experience a real pleasure. We thoughally enjoyed the lunch and experience as usual and can't wait to return in the very near future.
