What Tony Rutherford likes about The Denbigh:
The four of us had lunch there today. We had four different meals and all agreed that they were as good as you could ever get. Four clean plates! Cannot understand how some of the reviews to be seen on here would ever have happened. Delightful staff who looked after us with good humour too. Many thanks. Will return at the earliest next opportunity. View all feedback. What Keith L doesn't like about The Denbigh:
The staff were very nice so no worries there. The fish and chips were the most awful I have ever had. The pub is near the sea yet the fish was clearly months in the freezer. The flesh had no substance. The thin coat of batter was only just cooked, sloppy and no crispness. The chips were also slightly undercooked and the mushy peas clearly from a tin.

Went for Sunday lunch (or not)! We booked a table with the owner, but when we arrived there was no booking. The waitress just said ‘oh well I’ll find a table’....

Nestled near the sea, this pub offers a charming atmosphere and friendly staff. However, reviews illustrate a split experience: while some diners rave about delicious meals, like perfectly cooked roast dinners and commendable service, others lament subpar dishes, such as lackluster fish and chips and careless service. Many felt that a focus on regulars overshadowed attention to all patrons. Despite a promising menu, concerns about food quality and preparation persist, leaving some guests hesitant to return. Overall, the pub's potential shines through, but consistency in service and food quality remains elusive.
