Number Five The Beach

Nice location but totally understaffed with long waits and service charge added to the bill automatically even for just 2 people.

We had a private party this evening. The staff working where really friendly and the food was fantastic. Very enjoyable evening, would highly recommend.

Wonderful place on a sunny day (and rainy days too! really friendly and efficient service: our crusty roll sandwiches were excellent. Lovely views across the water and across to the marine lake. Top spot!

The food and service here are simply stunning. I have been 3 times with different friends and family in the last month for lunch. Exciting menu which changes and keeps interest. Staff are friendly and helpful. I have come away every time wanting to return to experience this quality of food.

I booked a table with a friend. We both ordered the rare beef with figs and parmesan and rocket . It was absolutely delicious, then followed with a home made brownie , raspberry and ice-cream. great place for lunch, breakfast or evenings. Would recommend to anyone. The views are are also beautiful and you can't fault the team for kind , prompt and professional service.

Great for afternoon tea. Fully recommended. Always very friendly staff. Used to go regularly for breakfast on weekends but the standard has dropped the menua isnt as good. For example, saying on the menu a veggie breakfast comes with avocado and then serving a dollop of guacamole is just annoying disgusting. Its not the same thing, doesn't match the flavours just feels cheap.

We were lucky to walk in and find an outside table free for a cream tea early afternoon. The cream tea includes two (fruit) scones, generous clotted cream portion and jam. We had tea in a proper pot with a cosy and tea strainer included and then added a coffee. All was enjoyed in a friendly and relaxed atmosphere. Staff were efficient but did not hurry us. I suggest sharing a cream tea as the portions are generous!

Top rating of 2/30 on TripAdvisor brought us here. Despite the super waterfront location our breakfast was very good. Something a little different with a healthy guacamole, perfectly cooked poached eggs and spinach on toasted tiger bread with a hint of hot sauce. Bright interior with wide windows to capture the view and large terrace. Special lunch, or using their medieval definition luncheon looks good. Very happy to pay the presumptuous service charge.

Not the best weather for a July summers day in the U.K. However, a family table inside was found thanks to the amazing staff who were attentive and genuinely nice people. I always find the specials board a magnet for choice and it was both varied and interesting. It covered a variety of tastes without complication, my coffee was hot and just how I like it not too intense and something to savor, not unlike my chosen main course, wonderfully cooked fresh mackerel fillets with large hand made croutons and an amazing crème with a shaving of horseradish over a wilted spinach. Portions were generous both for my meal and my wide and daughters, they were particularly impressed with the homemade cake...
