Location and Atmosphere
Pros:
"The view from the restaurant is very beautiful."
"Visited on a humid, wet & blustery day but they also have outdoor seating upstairs."
"We were large party of 21 on a Saturday night. We sat upstairs with a glorious view over the estuary."
"The view over the water is simply stunning. The decor manages to embody the title of beach bar well."
"The staff are lovely and welcoming as well as accommodating."
"The place is clean and has great views of the beach and sea."
"The perfect location for a drink and sit and people watch. The view over the beach and sea is second to none."
"Great location and obvious investment to Exmouth seafront but it was not ideal looking into low sun across the Exe through the meal."
Cons:
"Very disappointed with the service. It was very noisy there, staff were noisy and china and/or glass was smashed on the restaurant floor."
"It could be so great. Our waiter was very friendly and did a good job, but they seemed understaffed."
"The atmosphere was ok, in sense of location, view to the sea, the tables weren’t sticked to each other, the staff was friendly."
"Nice setting and great views. Food is good but not great, expensive. The service leaves a lot to be desired. Very slow, 1.5 hours wait for meal."
"The atmosphere was ok , in sense of location, view to the sea, the tables weren’t sticked to each other, the staff was friendly."
Service
Pros:
"The staff are all incredibly friendly and accommodating. Can’t fault the whole experience."
"Fantastic food and drink all topped off with fresh efficient service especially from Karolina but the entire team we meet along our dining experience were great!"
"The service was first class and the food exceptionally good! The atmosphere was friendly and lively."
"The staff warm and friendly. Great ambience."
"Very pleasant bar inside and out. The terrace is lovely and you get to over look the beach and sea, Inside is very clean and tidy."
"Waited an hour for a main course lunch and other tables experienced the same problem, the only excuse we are short staffed which didn't look like that to me."
"Staff were lovely, but my stupidly priced drink came in a tacky plastic glass."
Cons:
"An average place, overpriced with OK food. Dirty tables and uninterested staff."
"It was a disappointing visit despite friendly service and an excellent view."
"The welcome received at the bar was friendly I wish I could say the same thing about the restaurant staff."
"Visited here last night with elderly relatives including disabled father on a mobility scooter. My goodness me if only all restaurant staff were as kind, caring and hospitable as the team here!"
"The staff are lovely and welcoming as well as accommodating. Being regulars it’s always nice to also catch up with the staff."
"Very disappointed with the service. I was wearing a new outfit and the young waiter carried in a plate with bass swimming in oil and melted butter and he carelessly spilled the oil mixture down my arm onto my dress and on to my new suede clutch bag."
"Slow service, average food, great location. Had to send the steak back as was so over-cooked."
Food Quality
Pros:
"The fish and chips is very tasty and not like other places in Exmouth. The batter is lightly coated the fish and is very crunchy in every bit."
"The food was good quality but the best thing about this place is its location."
"The food was beautiful and the service spot on! Oh and that view!!! We will be recommending to family and friends and hopefully we’ll be back soon."
"Food was delicious, presented nicely and hot."
"We had an absolutely wonderful time last night! The service was first class and the food exceptionally good!"
"Honestly the mussels were so huge, fresh and full of flavour, some of the best I’ve had by far! Every dish was the tastiest version you can imagine, the chef smashed it."
"The food was amazing, I had the Indonesian sea food curry priced at £24, I wouldn't normally pay that price for a main meal but it was worth every penny."
"The food was great - Indonesian sea food curry followed with light and tasty desserts. Very satisfied with the service and would go again for a special occasion."
Cons:
"An average place, overpriced with OK food."
"The local pork chop was tasty, but the Indonesian fish curry was watery with skin left on the salmon chunks; not what one would expect for £28.00!"
"Monkfish was tired looking and tasting. Chips weren’t hot enough."
"Had 'Roast On The Coast' 2 Sundays ago it was the worse roast dinner I've ever had."
"Food is way overpriced. One of the most expensive and worst pizzas I’ve ever had."
"The food is really good, we ordered one each of all the appetisers, all very good."
"The steak ordered by my partner was inedible any decent chef would have noted the gristle running through it before cooking."
"Very nice spot looked grubby around tables ordered 3 coffees no sorcerers sorry we very busy there was only about 6 people in the bar come on Michael Caines get down there and do some washing up will not be going back."
