Since taking over the venue, we have been working hard to transform the building into a truly special pub, restaurant and coffee house.

Whatever reason you may have for visiting us – a healthy or hearty breakfast, a coffee with home-baking beside our wood-burning stove or downstairs with the kids in the play area, fantastic food with family in our restaurant, a glass of wine or a local beer with friends in our bar or on the riverside terrace – we assure you of a friendly welcome from staff who care.

Please let us know when you book if you are bringing your dog and we will reserve a suitable table.

The Riverside really is our dream come true and we look forward to welcoming you through its doors.

Stuart & Jo

    A firm favourite for my good lady and I, whether that be for morning coffee and scones sitting by the log burner, lunch or dinner, had booked a Saturday night dinner to celebrate Valentines Day plus start of holiday. As always, staff very friendly, bar and restaurant area really warm and welcoming - food was outstanding. Would always recommend as have found all aspects to a very high and friendly standard. Thank you. Alan

    Disappointing after previous good meals the Sunday roast was poor with the beef being tough and inedible. The replacement beef another cut was ok

    We enjoyed our x2 course lunch, however, We did think £18 was a little expensive for a burger with cheese, and although we did not take it, the fish & chips was in line with this price too. We also had starters but again felt they were a bit overpriced. Our waiting staff was lovely and friendly Kim munro
