busy and crowded in bar area, good atmosphere, food and staff.
The food at the Waterside is always exceptional and the restaurant is charming.
Lunch with a friend - Food was lovely and service excellent!
Great service. We sat outside as it was a beautiful day and staff were very attentive. Food was delicious we all had different dishes.
We had a lovely meal. Great service. Amazing spot. We've been before and can't believe it's taken so long for us to come back! We will not wait so long next time.
Lovely restaurant and very friendly and efficient staff. The food is well cooked and presented. Good choice of meat and fish dishes but poor vegetarian choice. Great choice of beers and brinks and the setting by the river is beautiful
,Good food (Haddock, excellent batter, & Chips) and apple crumble, although you can’t serve a crumble that is all soft. Even sprinkle it with separate crunchy crumble if it’s been microwaved. Texture is everything. House wine (Sauvignon Blanc) good. Excellent service, although dining area so noisy, we could hardly hold a conversation.
Loved the quality for the food, extensive use of local produce and the attention to detail. Staff were excellent in supporting and enhancing the experience.
Nothing more to add -we all had a very pleasant evening with excellent food
Lovely characterful restaurant in a riverside location. Attentive but not bothersome staff and top notch food.
Poor seating. Service without a smile. Very ordinary for price charged for food. Left feeling very disappointed.
Friends took us to the Waterside. They enjoyed it very much. Thought the food was very good and the service was too.Would come again.
It is many years since I have been to the restaurant, it won’t be so many till next time
Lovely meal and super staff.Very friendly atmosphere.Good menu choice too.
Fantastic menu and service was excellent. Venue itself was picturesque and furnished to a high standard. Would highly recommend.
Amazing food and service! Kuba is wonderful young man! The whole service and food was a smashing. Will be back for sure ♥️
Great location, terrific and professional staff, wonderful food! A great evening.
Excellent food and service as always. Thank you for a lovely meal.
Service was amazing, charming and efficient. Food was delicious - party of 5 and we all had something different and tried each others! My scallops were cooked perfectly. The ambience is also lovely - I would say it's elegant but informal in all the spaces (it's big). Great situation on the river.
Excellent as always. James and his staff are fantastic. Great menu
Great selection of food on the menu and excellent service. Lovely atmosphere
Attentive service and as always a wide range of choices on the menu.
Setting is amazing, atmosphere is great, staff are helpful and friendly and the food is to die for!
A most enjoyable evening to celebrate my wife's birthday. looked after well.
Perfekt Location and the menue was great and fresh and local
Great staff and great menu choice. Portion sizes very good and specials on offer were not to be missed. Speedy service, lovely restaurant, can't wait to return.
Disappointed with the quality of the main meals served, certainly not up to expectation set from previous visits.
Exceptional food. Top class service. Wonderful location. Will definitely be returning.
So easy - from arrival through ordering, eating to goodbyes - the staff team are brilliant.
Excellent food and service We will be back Excellent meal
It has been a long time since I have been to The Waterside Bistro, however, I will definitely be coming back again in the very near future. Food, service and staff were all excellent. I would have no hesitation at all in recommending The Waterside to any of my friends. Look forward to coming back again soon. Thank you.
perfect Friday evening - great food, great beer, great people and great prices - as usual!

We regularly eat at The Waterside as we live close by. This visit was as good as ever, friendly attentive service, great food and atmosphere. Definitely worth a visit!
Always met by friendly staff who couldn’t have done more to welcome us and made sure the dogs had water, we had drinks and a lovely table when it came to lunch. Loved the menu which has a mix of traditional dishes and some more unusual Ones. Food excellent and good value in a lovely setting

Fantastic!! Great services, delicious food, could ask for more, will go back there again soon.
Friendly helpful staff. Great food and service. Local restaurant, very likely to return
Excellent all round great service and food will be back
It was very busy when we arrived and it felt as though the staff were rushing us on. Specials were told to my husband only (i had nipped to the bathroom) Waiter seemed impatience while we were deciding on food choices. Food out very quickly after ordering and very little time between courses. Not until dessert menus came out did we have a bit of time but we choose to enjoy a winevand send the waiter away when asked if ready to order. Food was tasty, my prawn starter was disappointing brochie was stale and tiny prawns. Main course and dessert both delicous (mussels and trifle) my husband realky enjoyed the goats chees starter, surf n turf special and crumble for dessert. Overall satisfactory but service poor
Great food, atmosphere and service as always. Thanks again :)
A very pleasant pleasant meal with courteous and polite staff.
