“Continuing to be a reliable place for a quality meal in a lovely riverside setting” – the dining room and outside deck of this Victorian hotel provide wonderful estuary-side vantage-points for a meal. There are two-course and three-course menu options for about £40, and all-in-all it makes “an affordable special treat”.

“Reliably good food for a meal that feels special, with estuary views” – the backdrop of the water defines the experience at this Victorian hotel with 13 bedrooms, and where there’s no better location than the deck on a sunny day.

For 33 years we've been curating reviews of the UK's most notable restaurant. In a typical year, diners submit over 50,000 reviews to create the most authoritative restaurant guide in the UK. Each year, the guide is re-written from scratch based on this survey (although for the 2021 edition, reviews are little changed from 2020 as no survey could run for that year).
