‘Afternoon Tea’ was great value for money at £25 per head
Lots of sandwiches, cakes and savouries.
Beautifully presented on stands.
Staff were lovely and extremely attentive.
We were all very impressed (9 people on the booking)
However, we was surprised to find that our food did not come with tea or coffee !!
We had to purchase these separately.
This is the first time I’ve had afternoon tea anywhere and not received a hot beverage as part of the experience.
We all found this a bit odd as surely the clue is in the title …… Afternoon Tea 🫖!!
Came for a Sunday Roast and it was amazing. Got the Trio of meats Sirloin Beef, Honey Roasted Gammon and Turkey, with crispy roast potatoes and a medley of vegetables and jug of gravy, oh and not forgetting the huge Yorkshire pudding. 10/10 . All for £15.95, can't complain about that in a cost of living crisis. It certainly filled me up. It was a busy location by the canalside, lots of walkers stopping off for a drink, very dog friendly. Very prompt service for the waiting on staff. Next time will try out their rooms to stay in, as they look amazing. Definitely a place to visit. Will be back.
Went for a girls night out to celebrate a birthday.
Service was good, cocktails were nice. The food was really nice. The price was good.
There was live music on, right near our table, I was expecting it to be over powering, but it was actually really good.
Would definitely go again.
Excellent food, service and vibe.
Myself and my partner have moved fairly local to The Waterside, and have now been on multiple occasions, whether it be for food drink or both. The staff are lovely, there is a good selection of drinks and the food is excellent.
It has quickly become a go to place for us and this review is currently being written sat outside the place!
Would recommend this place to anyone looking for good atmosphere, food and drinks. Will be coming again for sure.
We have been a couple of times now and at busy and quiet periods and have always found the service and the quality of food top notch. The drinks menu is really extensive too! It’s great to just bob in for a drink if you’ve been on a walk or to book in for a meal. Sunday roasts are amazing

Out for a cycle ride along the canal to meet my son and agreed to meet up here and try out the lunch menu as there is a separate vegan menu with starters mains and desert 👍🏻 Chose the vish and chips was was a delight - never tried banana blossom before but made for a tasty dish. Staff were attentive and helpful. Lovely decor inside and plenty outside seating and dining tables - there’s an undercover outside eating area too in case of rain. Great canal side location and definitely one to revisit.
Ate here today for the first time, had Sunday lunch and it was amazing. All the staff were so friendly and efficient. Nothing was too much trouble. Lovely atmosphere with live music. Cannot wait to go back.
Chose The Waterside to host baby shower which we held in The Lighthouse of the restaurant, which is beautifully presented and worked well with our decorations. We had a variety of dishes from the lunch menu, which was served on time, freshly made and delicious 😋 The staff are amazing, so thanks for making a special day perfect . 💯 ***
This is part of the Wetherspoons chain. I dropped in for coffee only but its a busy place with a variety of meals on offer and like most of their other outlets the food is very good. Its a good place for groups and families
Lively, buzzing canal side bar. Great atmosphere, friendly staff and tastefully decorated. Excellent outdoor area. Good choice of beers and spirits too. Didn't try the food. Worth a visit.
