Got caught out by the carpark charges. Didn't see the sign upon entry to the carpark (doesn't really matter why but I've lived here all my life and there's never been charges before, poor weather and visibility due to rain showers maybe) Walked to the island and back at low tide. Intended to stay for lunch but with children things happen and we had to leave. Blam! Letter through door demanding £100. £60 if I pay early. Well that's £60 I won't be spending there next time or ever. Great way to alienate potential customers. I should've parked in the caravan park and gone to the Spinney instead. Would've had a much more positive experience. The carpark was literally empty. Very annoyed.

Stunning restaurant with glamorous interior with a heritage feel. Numerous dining areas and tables to cater for all size groups. Good menu with choices to cover vegetarians and meat lovers. Recommend the prawn cocktails as a starter, fish for main served with mash. Good drinks options with bar on site offering beers on tap, bottles of wine and champagne. Bathrooms clean.Need a car to get there with parking on site.Love your local guide- M❤️Follow or like me please if helpful

Quite enjoyed it here, sat inside the restaurant to enjoy my night. The food was very tasty, I had a streak which was cooked perfectly, and my partner had the burger, which he said was lovely. The onion rigs were really nice, too. Pig in blankets wasn't very nice for a side. We both enjoyed the house sodas, both passion fruit and Raspberry. Didn't feel like drinking on this occasion. But I had so many choices for drinks and alcohol. My only problem was the long wait times, was sat inside for about an hour and half just for 2 mains and 1 dessert. Where we sat, the waiters didn't come over and checkup on us, so we had to keep going bar to request our waiter.

Lovely food and interior plus the views across to the motherland. Try getting some real ales in, other than Doombar

We stopped in here to warm up during the rain, the food and drinks were wonderful.We chose an appetizer of scallops and shrimp and for a main course chicken and pancetta pie. The food was more than enough for two people and we enjoyed every last bite of it.We also ordered some drinks, the mocha was so good I ordered 2!We actually came back after a few hours for more drinks and another appetizer of Camembert and marmalade and we devoured it, it was that good!

Great location by the sea. Lovely food. Good atmosphere. The staff were friendly and welcoming. Not forgetting your pet pooch as dogs are welcome, too.

A recent lunch visit found the food lacklustre and overpriced for what it is. We had to sit and eat at a tiny bar table in sinking wingback chairs because we hadn't booked, and no-one seemed interested in clearing the dishes away once we'd finished. The barmaid seemed like she wished to be somewhere else.I've found the bitter here to be good when served properly, but a few times it's been a bit cloudy with that new barrel" tang.I think this place manages to keep a reasonable level of custom due to its advantageous position on the seafront at Swanbridge Bay

A lovely pub, great location with nice views. We went for Sunday lunch, which was really nice & a very generous portion. Plenty of meat, potatoes & veg! Great value for money & the staff were fab, in particular, our server, Louise.
