    We had a lovely meal at The Marine for my son’s 18th Birthday. It was quiet in the restaurant as it was a cold Monday night, but the barman/waiter was brilliant and more than made up for it. The food was delicious and really huge portions - which is great with 2 hungry teenagers to feed. The barman even brought out the cake singing Happy Birthday- it was brilliant! Thanks for a lovely evening!

    AMAZING food! We had the Hake and Lemon Sole specials, some of the best seafood dishes we’ve had anywhere. Great service to go with it, only thing missing was a bit of low level background music to up the atmosphere slightly….we will be back!
