Went to celebrate my friends wedding at their reception venue = brilliant and the spread was devine
Great bar with a very friendly atmosphere and whilst only having a small menu it was cooked to perfection and delicious.
Booked for a wedding after party 30th March 3024. Excellent value for money, lovely room with a well stocked bar and fantastic buffet. The room and service exceeded our expectations and therefore we would highly recommend this venue. The DJ they sorted for us was superb. We could have paid a lot more and got a lot less. Will definitely be booking this place again for any future gatherings. All our guests were very complimentary about the night ❤️
Good drink prices and a good quiet atmosphere on a Sunday night
Great pub good screens for football and boxing
Please everyone, ignore the poisonous lies posted here by Joanne Botham. The young man she refers to, is always outstandingly professional, courteous and polite. We have patronised The Riverside for over fifteen years and never had reason to complain about the food or the staff. The food is always delicious, as it has been tonight and all staff are warm and friendly, especially the two whom Joanne refers to. The terms of endearment - 'Darling', 'Love' and so on, just add to their charm and make us feel extremely welcome. We dine at the Riverside three times a week because of the wonderful staff and the atmosphere they provide. The female staff have also been dumbfounded by the harassment to their colleague, stating that if the young man did not work here, then neither would they. Young man - never change! You and the chef are absolutely amazing! Keep up the good work.
Big match on and they had 2 young girls behind the bar who were very slow and can't have been there long as when asked a few questions they said they didn't know. Took ages to get served and they served people who had pushed in so wasn't taking note of who had been there awhile. Went to get the carvery and the plates were wet and dirty. Nobody on there for ages either so we just stood examining the plates which all had food stuck to them. Didn't find one clean plate. Dishwasher obviously not cleaned them properly and they were not dried as water all over them. Beef was dried like a prune and only a bit of turkey left so we asked to swap for something off the menu instead. Food came out pretty quickly to be fair but think the carvery man was also cooking the meals as people who had been waiting for him to cut the meat ended up cutting the meat themselves. Ordered chicken in a basket and a kids chicken chips and peas. The young waitress asked who the chicken was for and I said we've ordered kids chicken and chips and chicken in a basket so she gave the plate to my granddaughter. 5 min later and I'm still waiting so asked the waitress and she said the chicken in a basket is coming. It turned up and it was a kids chicken nuggets meal. Granddaughter had then smothered my chicken in ketchup so I complained and got told the chef is stressed so she can't do anything so I ended up having to eat a kids portion due to them giving the wrong meal to the small person. The whole thing was a farce from beginning to end. I felt sorry for the staff as not their fault. Whoever was in charge needs demoting . Big cup final match and Sunday carvery day and there were 3 maybe 4 staff behind 2 bars, carvery and in the kitchen.
Great place to come and watch football, have a meal or play snooker or pool.
Attend a wake, I'm not sure if the catering was done by the Riverside Club, but assuming that it was, then it was excellent. They catered for food allergies . Spacious area and excellent bar service.
