   The food was cooked to perfection, the staff were very polite and efficient. I felt when I booked the table that it was a bit pricy but thought "what the hell it's only once a year" however it exceeded my expectations and thought it was very good value for money, It was that good I wanted to book for next year there and then!

   Waitress was very helpful and dealt with all our requirements straight away. Food took 40 minutes to arrive and the restaurant wasnt busy. Out of the six meals, we have to request items which were missed for 5 of the meals

   I ordered a ham mustard and sun-dried tomato bloomer. It arrived with no tomato. As the waitress had told us prior to ordering of a number of items that were not available due to no deliveries for the lock down I didn’t say anything as assumed this was the reason. When our plates were collected we were asked by another waitress if the food was ok. I made comment about the lack of tomato and how it would have been nice to have known before hand as I would have ordered something else. She went off and came back to advise she’d spoken to the chef who assured her 100% he’d put tomatoes in it. My response was I can assure you he didn’t and my friend also confirmed there was none. Again the waitress said the chef says he did, so he did. All but accusing me of lying. She was rude, unapologetic and her attitude was appalling. It was a shame as all the other staff were friendly and professional. There’s plenty of other pubs within that area . She and her attitude will certainly make me go elsewhere next time we are able to.

   Lovely meal although once served didn’t see anyone to order any extras we would have liked a bit more gravy and were told that potato veg gravy and Yorkshire’s were bottomless when ordering. We cannot understand why we have to use card payments when tried to pay cash but a tip in cash is fine?? None the less we will definitely return

   Excellent service from start to finish. Very friendly and helpful. Ale was served at the perfect temperature and was clearly fresh. Food came efficiently, all cooked perfectly - absolutely delicious. Will be back again regularly.

   Pleasant gastro pub in a nice location opposite Swanwick marina. Food was reasonable quality, nothing amazing but tasty and well cooked. Prices are a little on the high side. Service was pleasant if a little slow. Personally I found it a bit noisy. Even with social distancing it was difficult to talk over some very loud customers sitting on the tables behind us. Not much that can be done about that I suppose though! Would definitely return.
