Riverstation

Food, service and ambience were superb. Fish of the day was perfectly cooked and the accompaniments were well suited to the fish. Chips were a little bit expensive for the amount you got which is the only fault. Some “normal” vegetables (such as peas) for fussy eaters would have been welcome rather than salad greenery. Perfect for those with a more adventurous palette.

Oh dear. I remember this place from many years ago when I often came here with work colleagues. It's a shadow of what it was. We were in the bar. The setting is good but the place was empty. Having eaten the food I'm not surprised. The food all looked tired. My crab stir fry looked as though it was yesterday's heated up. The same applied to the main course. My companion fared better but she was hungry and young and would probably have eaten anything. I had to ask for some bread and I had the impression that someone had had to scrape the barrel to find some cold rather hard bread. The bill didn't disappoint! Over 100 pounds. Scandalous and I won't be going back.

Arrived on time for a 5pm reservation with an unknown couple at an otherwise empty restaurant. Rather than dealing with us separately we were ushered to our separate tables together.

Seems there might have been a private party elsewhere on the premises.

We left 100 minutes later, leaving 5 couples behind still dining, and £78 out of pocket. During this time we had a single glass of beer, 3 of the tiniest, slightly overcooked hasselback potatoes ever seen, a rather nice plaice and a pork chop with bland kimchi cabbage, the stem included which was inedible.

No time for dessert or coffee as we had another engagement, even though we had been sitting with the menu undisturbed for 10 minutes.

The couple who arrived at the same time as us seemed to fare better as they did get their desserts.

It's your decision, but I'll not cross the threshold again.

Left feeling very disappointed and still hungry.

We came for a celebration dinner using a voucher for £100 for two. The restaurant wasn't very busy but we got seated directly next to other diners who were quite loud, so multiple times we felt like we had to pause our conversation while they were interacting with the waiter. The view over the river was very pleasant. Food wise, extremely hit and miss. The entree of mussels was delicious and the desserts were very well presented and well balanced in terms of flavours. However, the bread and butter for the table were respectively not tasting fresh and too cold and hard. And both of our mains (chicken supreme and pasta) were quite underwhelming, with the pasta specifically feeling like it's missing sauce.
Overall we had a pleasant night but for the price point the evening did not feel special enough.

It’s a lovely setting overlooking the river, but it’s a little overpriced for the quality of food that you get.

We went on a Saturday night at 7:30 pm and they had already run out of two dishes.

The cauliflower starter was tasty but massively overcooked. The chicken supreme was well presented but the chicken was overcooked and dry.

The staff were lovely and the service was good too. It’s a shame about the quality food as we won’t be rushing back

Always great! Lovely mussels and chips… late afternoon pre dinner service quiet and yet the food and service was outstanding… and always happy to see Gary hosting… so important to keep that continuity of service.. all the best

Had an overall great experience at the Riverstation.

We visited for a Sunday Brunch and we weren’t disappointed.

Everything tasted nice and staff made sure we were satisfied at all times.

Thank you!
