Good food is at the heart of what we do, along with a selection of the best wines from around the world. We use the finest local ingredients to create the best in casual dining, whether from the Captain’s Table or Ship's menus.
There is a wide variety of dishes that put a contemporary touch on traditional pub cuisine, ranging from great steaks and fish, to homemade pies and pasta and on Sundays what we, and many others, say is the best roast lunch on the island. Many of the dishes can be ordered in smaller portions for children or grown-ups with small appetites. And accompanied by a great choice of wines from around the world.
Whether you choose to eat in the restaurant, bar or garden, all with fantastic views over the Blackwater estuary, you can be assured of a great standard of personal service.
Or if you just want chill out with some friends over a couple of beers or a crisp, cool glass of wine, then our comfortable lounge area with leather sofas is the place for you.
