| Basically this is a family oriented restaurant with the 'pub' as a secondary thing. Beers okay, service reasonable (vying with eaters' orders), although not much seating for drinkers. Restaurant is big, can be noisy with kids (and parents). Service when there a few weeks back was quick (end of the weekend serving day) and the place a bit quieter apart from the all-to-common family with undisciplined kids and adults who don't give a toss about other people. Food was okay, nothing to write home about, although the portions were large, perhaps because it was near closing time. Probably better lunchtimes during a schoolday. Codrotten - 25 Oct 2011 20:59 |
| They had 2 real ales , Spitfire and a Adnams. As mentioned here the problem is the parking, for people heading to the beach they can buy a carpark ticket for £10. The ones who use it as a free parking can be clamped and the removal fee is £100. Didn't know how they check it so did not bother to have a meal here. The Spitfire was fine so was the service. markos - 3 Jun 2011 22:48 |
| Large pub in a great location. Wasn't a great selection of beers on when I was there. The food was ok though I agree with previous comments regarding the service. Decent enough but there are better pubs in the area to visit. outtamehead - 9 Feb 2010 06:17 |
| Great location and good food. The service could be better however the real choker is the car parking which you could be charged for if you are not careful phonak - 17 Jan 2010 18:29 |
| We popped in yesterday (Sunday) for a bite to eat and a drink. Firstly, the service was attrocious from a guy who clearly didnt want to be there.I very nearly apologised for inconveniencing him when I needed serving There were no bar snacks or that type of thing being served, which was a bit strange and dissapointing as we only wanted a baguette/sandwich each(surely not everyone wants a full sit down meal on a warm Summers day) but only main meals were available and the cheapest we could find was just under a tenner a head from the very tacky looking laminated home drawn menu. A pint of house lager and a Diet Coke cost me just 10p shy of a fiver. So whilst the views from outside overlooking the cliffs are truly spectacular, I would hesitate about another visit as the prices seem a tad high for what really was only standard type of pub fayre. cufc4 - 20 Jul 2009 11:07 |
