    Four of us enjoyed a lovely evening at the Quayside Bar & Grill. The service from the waiters was very good and they were very pleasant. We all opted to share the steak dinner and ordered some olives to nibble on before our mains. This dinner includes a bottle of house wine so we chose red wine. The food was well presented and had a selection of pepper or blue cheese to accompany the steaks there was also mushrooms, tomato, onion rings and chips. We all thoroughly enjoyed our food and the atmosphere was good nice and peaceful where we could chat without background noise. We look forward to returning in the future.

    We felt it was a rushed experience ‘dine and dash’. The servers were attentive but seemed like they were in a rush with every encounter. We ordered an item from the while you waited section it arrived with starters. The starters were very differing in size, the soup was an extremely large portion with cheese on toast, compared to the chicken liver parfait piped in the middle of a small roll. The steak was over cooked to our order. The house red wine was less than average. We won’t be back in a hurry.
    Quayside Bar & GrillResponded on April 14, 2025
    Thank you for taking the time to give us your feedback, Andrew. Please accept my apologies for the poor visit you had, a rushed atmosphere is certainly not what we like our guests to experience. I've discussed your feedback with our head chef, our menu changes in May so hopefully this will rectify the portion sizes you've identified. We're changing our wine supplier in June, and I'm confident this will only improve the quality of our products. My apologies again for your time with us, please get in touch with us directly if you decide to return so I can ensure you have a much more positive experience!

    Some form of event going on with all congregating around the bar right next to the restaurant. Staff overly consumed with the function paying little attention to customers in the restaurant. Too much noise, too little attention and food was not worth the prices. The physical menu is pretentious and is not as clear as it could be.

    Thank you for taking the time to give us your feedback Ian, I'm so sorry that your experience with us wasn't what we would hope it to be! I'll reply to you privately so we can hopefully find a resolution for you :)
