The main courses were mainly adequate in quality, the sea bream and the bass were a bit dry but otherwise ok. Two of us had the smoked haddock gratin which sadly left a lot to be desired. The smoked haddock had not been skinned and appeared to be mainly the tail end of the fish which resulted in a lot of slimy skin in the gratin surprising to say the least. The topping consisted of a fairly thick layer of breadcrumbs which were only toasted on the very top not what you would expect from a gratin. The sauce contained quite a lot of just cooked potato. These dishes sadly didn't fit in with the rest of our experience

We were seated in one of the outdoor 'pods ', complete with heating/air conditioning. It was very toasty and a little cosy for us all. We chose the battered fish (IT WAS HUGE! and chips, and I had the fresh crab, samphire salad, chips etc. It was delicious. Nice fresh samphire (not at all 'woody ' as it can be sometimes and delicious fresh crab. Ham, egg and chips was also eaten and enjoyed. The food was delicious, the coffee delicious, the 'pod ' perfect, overall a really lovely lunch. The staff were very accommodating, leaving us 'alone ' for feeding time. Of course we 'll be back!

Potions are substantial and the chips are perfect, crunchy on the outside and fluffy inside. The only reason for 4* is the price, at £20 for the crab salad there...
