The Gull Inn provided the perfect weekend getaway! The rooms were charming, immaculately clean, and the bed was incredibly comfortable I slept better than I do at home

I really like The Gull Inn

I really like The Gull Inn. It’s a very cozy and warm place. The people who work here are so friendly and kind. The food is fresh and really tasty. I also liked the quiet and relaxing atmosphere. It’s a nice place to spend time with friends or just enjoy a calm evening. I will definitely come back again.

We stopped here after passing several times on a Sunday and seeing it packed so thought a Saturday lunch would be as good. The staff are good and the setting nice but the food we had wasn't great. Burger was very plain and dripped grease when I picked it up to eat it and the chips weren't great .My partners meal was also not great but maybe the main focus is on their Sunday custom and unfortunately on this trip the food wouldn't make me go there unless it was a Sunday as the reviews for their Sunday lunch seem good

Evening meal reunion

A group of us went for an evening meal . The ambiance was lovely, and I had high hopes. The serving staff were friendly and obliging. For both of those, I would give 4 stars.I ordered a brisket cottage pie. Although presented beautifully, it was incredibly salty, to the point where I had to drink water in between mouthfuls. The gravy was overly thick, and tasted and looked like it had been made using gravy granules. Considering the meal was highly priced, I would have expected a home made, flavoursome gravy.Overall, the prices seemed high for the main meal portion sizes. However, the deserts were lovely, and good sized portions. I had a crumble, which was very tasty.The manager was overly familiar, and joined us at our table twice, chatting to us. We were having a reunion, so did not appreciate the interruption. I can only guess he was trying to move us on, as we were the only ones left in the restaurant.

Disappointed

Catch up lunch with another couple and the Gull was convieniently 1/2 way between us and the website looked good menu and appeared to be a very busy place so food must be good - yes ?. Inside was very well laid out and not what I expected from the roadside. Welcoming friendly staff. Starters good But my and my wife's mains were not so good. She had the gourmet fish basket but without the gourmet. The smoked haddock bon bons had a hint of chlorine smell so past its best. Not a disaster as the whitebait and prawns were ok but still not gourmet quality. Mine however was a disaster. I had the pigs plate and the pork belly and ham hock risoles were probably a bit too dried out before being deep fried and they were inedible. The pan fried pork fillet was dry and tough and even difficult to cut. The BBQ sauce meant for the pork belly was with a strong vinegar and made the risoles 10 times worse in flavour. Minor points were no apple sauce as per menu and cajun chips were just ordinary chips without any seasoning. My plate obviously had very little eaten from it and I told our server that it was very poor quality. She very kindly gave us a 10% discount on our two dishes so £1.80 off each of the two dishes. That still ended up being a £98 bill. Normally I would have demanded the full cost of my dish but I know how difficult it is for the trade during these times. I just accepted it and will not revisit. If this is the normal pigs plate then I am sure many more will not revisit. Difficult times is no excuse for poor quality.Update : looks like management blocked me from their FB pages because I gave a negative review. I guess the manager knew they gave a terrible dish and had no defence. Dropped my 2 * rating to 1 because of that.

Apologies for the delay.

Enjoyed a lovely meal here a few weeks back, staff friendly and very approachable but not in your face, which I like. The restaurant has character and charm and has quite a unique appearance inside and out. The food was spot on and all cooked well. Would and have recommended this restaurant to others, may possibly return for my sons 21st in a few weeks with the family.
