Food was fantastic. Great menu with loads of options and cooked/presented to perfection!
Staff very friendly.
Room was nice with a comfy bed and good amenities. Shower didn't switch on reported to staff who ensured another shower was available.
Omg the whole experience here was fabulous, Summer and Ebony the 2 female staff were wonderful. Summer would go above and beyond and nothing was too much for her. She had a wonderful sweet funny aura about that was so refreshing.
Later we met Kieran the manager he was wonderful so helpful and very funny even though he was unwell with flue nothing was to much.
Such a wonderful place to stay, very clean and the food was amazing too.

Quirky, low ceilings and very steep stairs. Enjoyed our stay. Brilliant location.
Would highly recommend this property. We were made to feel welcome. The breakfast option is definitely worth it. Hot and cold drink was included.
The staff were all lovely, made to feel like a local.
The bedrooms are lovely and a bonus waking up to a. I’ve view.
Highly recommend, will definitely be back to stay.
Charming old building with cosy rooms. Excellent restaurant downstairs. Nice views of the river and sailboats. Right at the promenade.
Access to the rooms through the staff area of the kitchen. Private bathroom was not en-suite.

The Fish on the Quay was fine
staff friendly Food and drink good too
would stay again
It was a very old Quirky pub, The Staff were very Helpful and Friendly, the Full English Breakfast was very Adequate and Tasty. Would stay there again.
Had an over-nighter with my old man. Comfy room, aircon,
lovely view over the river... Delicious breakfast the following morning. Parking can be a bit iffy, but we found a space nearby... better from October, when all the regulations ease. The bar was well stocked and we had massive dinners! Plenty of shops a short walk away.
