sunday lunch at Pyne's was very tasty, hot, served quickly and very reasonably priced. We had a good view of the seafront and the waiters were very friendly and efficient.

Just back from family Sunday lunch, 5 people having a selection of roast sirloin beef, lamb and pork. All were top quality, plenty of food and great service. Why bother with caverys when for a pound or two more you can have this quality. All with a sea view as well.

Like many others on previous reviews the service is certainly less than good, It is such a shame when poor staffing ruins a visit.

We ate here in October this year, despite not having a reservation they found us a table at the window, we then attempted to have a drink at the bar before eating only to have the waiter march up to us and demand to know what we had chosen to eat, I felt it an opportune moment to remind him...

Thank you for taking the time to provide us with some valuable feedback. We are very pleased that you enjoyed your meal and especially liked the chips! I can only apologise that you found the bar and restaurant uncomfortably warm, and that the waiter hovered while you were choosing from the menu. I will certainly look in to the couple... More

Dining area very hot and stuffy - first waiter unhelpful when enquiry made about air con or opening a window. I was told customers near the windows complain if there opened. Second waiter observed my attempts at a make shift fan and offered to switch on a ceiling fan. Food menu arrived and when the waiter arrived to take order... More

Ate here with friends who were staying at the hotel. It is a very popular restaurant. We sampled lasagne, pie of the day, lemon sole and lamb. All of which were good, no complaints, in fact better than ewe had expected. The vegetables were good too, which is always a bonus to me. Does what it says on the tin... More

I ate here with a party of four and have always enjoyed great food in the past however on this occasion the main course fell below its usual high standards and had to complain about the rather tough lamb shanks x 3.The staff made no unnecessary fuss and immediately offered us another dish as well as taking it off the...
