Good location if you happen to be on the marina but you are paying for this. Disappointing portion size for the price: a really small portion of fries cost £5 which I think is steep as you get less than you'd get at a well known big brand burger chain for £1.19. The Shredded duck tacos were £12 for two. The tacos come flat, they are about 10cm in diameter with 2 tablespoons of content. I'd pay less in Paris or London. For me, it is worth walking to Hamble village for better value. I used to use the restaurant during the week with friends, but the prices went up more than elsewhere and the portion size went down.

Notably the chefs that can be seen through the serving hatches were not...
Read moreGreat little café restaurant overlooking the local yachts. Extensive menu and a bar. Eat in, or outside, also a covered area with heaters outside and a blanket box 😁Take away available. Visited again 21 August 24, with wife, elderly mother and our two new puppies. They sat outside whilst I went in to check where we could sit. Staff seem disinterested,. Finally spoke to the waitress who said we could only sit outside. Not even in the covered area 😔 It was too windy for this. The food would get cold quickly as it's quite exposed. So would my mother. We left and went to Hamble where there is a great selection of dog friendly pubs, with good food. The Victory was great, and...
