Ridleys on the River — Restaurant in England

We can’t wait to go again!

Today was our first visit to Ridley’s, we sat down just by the river with the sun on our faces listening to the sounds of the river passing, which was very relaxing.

On meeting the owner, I could tell she is extremely customer service focused and was truly only wanting the very best for her customers which she surely delivered on during our visit.

On reading the menu we found the prices to be very cheap however the quality of the food didn’t reflect on the cheap prices they were charging as the food was just fantastic. When I pointed this out to the owner, she told me she believes in keeping the prices low so it is affordable to all which I thought was really nice.

We just wanted a light lunch. We went for the large cheese burger, fries and the Ham roll. It was all amazing. Very tasty and well presented.

If I say ‘we can’t wait to go again’ you will know how much we highly rate this one.

Edit: 5/9/24 After 2 more visits at the weekend, unfortunately the two ladies who work on the bar are not as welcoming as the owner was on our first visit. Still a loverly place and great food but just needs the weekend staff bringing up...

Fab little bar on the river. Over the Easter weekend, I have been there a few times - for a quick drink prior to going elsewhere for a meal, a late night drink as seemingly the latest place open on Good Friday (until 02:30am) and finally for a meal on Easter Monday. We both had a standard size pie with mash and mushy peas. Great that you can choose from about 6 different mashes and 5 different pies. We had steak and ale pie, cheesy mash and mushy peas and steak and stilton, garlic mash and mushy peas. Very filling...

Came yesterday lunch for two but drinks never came to us until I reminded them 15 mins later! Waited 30 minutes for our lunch then got charged more for the bill! Won't come again they gave me a bacon sandwich even though I ordered sausage one! Won't come again. But food nice. Very expensive though £16.95 for jacket potato salad chilli bacon sarnie & two halfs if cider! Terrible price! The ciders must've cost about £3 each for two...
