First time visit. What I enjoyed the most - welcoming and attentive staff - no time pressure to order or give up table, specials menu and food presentation, choice of attractive room settings, relaxed and dog friendly. It came highly recommended. I see why.

Friendly welcome staff great and food excellent will definitely be back

Beautiful food, efficient service and lovely setting - thank you!

Lovely old building in a nice location by the river. Service was very friendly and efficient. Food was delicious, some different choices of starters and mains as well as pub usuals. Not cheap but worth it for the quality of food.

Lovely restaurant and very friendly and attentive staff - food lovely too

Our group enjoyed the meal, food was good, service was attentive, pacing was just right for a lightly constrained timing. A little pricey perhaps, but you get what you pay for.

Absolutely exceptional food, a wonderful location inside and out, great service.

Beautiful setting and superb service with a very superior menu.

We are local to the area and love The Waterside. The setting is just beautiful and as always the service and food was fabulous. Fresh, hot and a great portion size. Many additional specials too.

We had a lovely afternoon. Food was excellent and the venue was warm and cosy. Only one small thing, after we had our meal we weren’t asked if we would like anything else - desserts, tea/coffee. I had to go to the bar to ask some time later and also had to ask for the bill. A little more attentive and the whole experience would have been excellent.

I have been to The Waterside Bistro many times before for lunch. I have always found the food, service and staff excellent. I would have no hesitation in recommending the restaurant to any of my friends. I look forward to going back again in the very near future.

Friendly, fulsome and fabulous! Guaranteed a return very soon. Thank you.

Fantastic welcome, Great service, superb food and great atmosphere. What a lovely evening, thanks all😍

We enjoyed the chicken & chorizo ballotine, the bone marrow burger and the dill herring with potato salad. The soup of the day was also delicious. Three of us dined and all enjoyed the food. No complaints.

Fantastic salmon en croute - excellent service and fireside table.

We had a lovely lunch , very well looked after.

Delicious food and great service. Would highly recommend a night here.

Excellent menu with creative and unusual dishes which we thoroughly enjoyed. The service is very professional and friendly.
