This was a perfect place to come and have lunch. With a decent selection of full and small plates, a wide range of beers and very attentive and courteous bar staff coupled with modern, spacious environment, I will be back!

Bad....I would give negative starts if I could. The restaurant was nice and everything was good but the food was spicy really spicy so we asked for something else and then that was really spicy as well!!!!!! Ya bad. Ya bad very bad ya.

First time been there but I was really impressed... Yes it cost more than Witherspoon's but I didn't regret fish and chips and the pizza was something else 👌

Variable service, main was quick but kids desert was so slow we left after 20 minutes before it was delivered. Food that did come was good, tasty and hot. Shame portions were small for the price. “Large Loaded fries” wasn’t large. One of the burgers comes without chips for no apparent reason. It is in the menu if you notice but we didn’t. I really don’t like being asked for a tip BEFORE I’ve been served so I’d rate the payment system as flawed too. Pizza was lovely. Prices gone up a lot. £15.50 for a burger on its own is excessive.

I visited with girlfriends. It was It was lovely atmosphere to reconnect! Unfortunately one of us didn't get what we wanted and the rest of us had to adjust our orders due to food shortages (thanks a lot Brexit!!!). I found the service absolutely amazing though, and the food, once ordered and paid for was delivered VERY QUICKLY. I was impressed I could order a breadless burger!!!! Yes thank you so very much 😍😍!!! I've already said I'd go again with other girlfriends or a group. Amazing place!

Delicious food with quick and efficient service! The loaded fries were superb. Returned today, had the loaded fries, cajun onion rings & chicken wings. The food was even better than I remembered and that takes some doing! The ordering system is very quick and efficient, scan the QR code, enter you table number and order away. Pay when you place your order so you don't have to wait for the bill. Service was very quick (it was quiet at the time).

I've been going here for about 4 years and food is always consistent, great range of drinks..good for whiskey and beer lovers, nice selection of good local beers and small rang of cocktails. Menu is not big but what they do they do well!! You must try there burgers..to die for, you will not be disappointed I guarantee. Staff are great here, nothing is too much trouble 🙂

Exceptional service! Excellent Christmas work do!

December 21, 2024

Went there yesterday for a work Christmas do, the food was disgusting. I wasn t expecting fine dining but food I could at least eat. I had chosen from the festive menu, when I told the waiter the food wasn t good not much of a response really so quite disappointing. I had a bad stomach once I got home. My friend had a hair in her starter and a bug in her drink, got those both changed. We will definitely not be rushing back that s for sure.

If youre looking for a fantastic spot to unwind, I highly recommend this bar! From the moment you walk in, youre greeted with a warm, inviting atmosphere that makes you feel right at home. The staff are exceptional, and I want to give a special shoutout to Jami and Jack. Jami always greets you with a smile and is incredibly attentive, making sure your glass is never empty while keeping the conversation flowing. Jack, with his friendly banter and top-notch bartending skills, always goes the extra mile to make you feel like a regular, even on your first visit. Together, they create an unforgettable experience that keeps me coming back. Whether youre in the mood for a crafted cocktail or just a cold beer, the service is always on point. Cant recommend it enough!

I have had to update (x3) my review. Went again today to check if anything changed, noticed the menu got updated, finally...the wings are finally much better! (Hooray!) Theres finally some taste, so Im happy to report on that front that its worth it. Hitting the right temperature on cooking the wings was a bit questionable, but all in all a much better variant to the last 2 times we checked in. The staff were superb, no complaints there.

We had two wheelchair users, and it was really hard getting into the place, as only one of the doors was opened, my daughter had difficulty getting the wheelchairs in, the place was empty, but staff just watched us trying to get in without offering assistance. Thankfully three men came to our rescue and helped by opening the other side of the door when we were ready to leave. Its a shame because everything else was good.

Modern venue, but overpriced and noisy.

May 21, 2024

Went there yesterday evening with my children for a meal. Ordered the food and after receiving one of the items was incorrect, not a big issue as the manager changed it for correct one. Then whilst sitting and eating our food, the lady who originally served us came over and was very rude in saying children are not permitted to stay here after 9pm. Considering I only ordered our food a short time ago and said to the waitress why was this not specified at the time of ordering to be told rudely well thats how it is. The same waitress who I told got the order wrong to categorically deny I didnt make a mistake even though she clearly did. I understand mistakes can happen but the abrupt way she came over and spoke to me was shocking. The food quality also was not great, the wings ordered looked like they been heated over and over and were very dry. The only solace was the manager was a nice person. Will not be returning here in a hurry.

May 21, 2024

Food was nice however the service from staff is the worst I have ever experienced. Also check no one has started to eat the food before you as staff dont know table numbers. The main dish served on a side plate so tiny portions for the price. Service was so poor it was comical toward the end, after being brought food for other tables and having to tell the staff what was our food, they forgot the extra side of an onion ring on the burger. we ordered 2 childrens strawberry ice cream after mains to be brought brownie we advised what we ordered and the staff insisted this was ours so to save another 5 mins arguing we took it (by this time my 5 year old wanted the brownie) she then relised and took the brownie from my 5 year old once he had already started to eat it and gave it to the correct table. We then asked for another brownie to which the manager advised we would be charged for it even thought they had forced it onto our table previously. It was only when we pointed out they have gave another table a dessert which my son had already started eating that they changed their mind, they didnt take the dessert back from the other table and they then gave us an onion ring 15 mins after pudding which is the extra side then forgot. Check your food hasnt been eaten by someone else before you eat.

April 21, 2024

So came here with 2 people me and my partner had the burger and chips I did ask if I could have the mucky swine fries as a extra if I pay the extra but said I have to buy them separately when Im not going to eat the chips that come with the meal. The meat didnt smell like 100% beef the atmosphere was bad the staff too didnt really enjoy my burger and chips the burger was all bread to be honest I just wont come back here again

Local Guide
April 21, 2024

The burgers tasted like they were not 100% beef. Had stomach upset since eating there 2 days ago. Made me feel ill and am off sick from work. Overpriced cheap food I wouldnt feed to my dog. The staff wouldnt swap the chips for loaded fries, and the portion of mash that came with the pie was so small it looked like half a small potato had been used. Onion rings were so greasy and overcooked, they were like crisps.

March 21, 2024

I can tell that the place has new ownership/management. They have turned the place upside down. The food is horrible ,service is poor even a truck stop is not this bad. The previous menu was top notch. Please bring back the streaking pig burget and the grilled wings and not the horrible food you are serving us. I used to be proud of bringing my family and friends but not amymore. This was the last time coming to pier 5

Always decent food, priced on the higher end but Ive not had a bad meal here. Great selection of beers, ciders and spirits, cocktails can be a little hit or miss, but its more of a pub. Can get a little loud at peak times, and they have a DJ on Fridays and Saturdays which if youre eating a little later can be a bit too loud.

It looked a very nice place went in just as one of the staff took the menus away then proceeded to go behind the bar and stare at us,we was confused on how to order food and still no one checked if we was OK, menu wasnt clear and worked out that you had to buy sides with your meal as it didnt come with anything this made it very expensive. Not impressed.

Revised review: Ive decided to adjust my rating for this establishment due to a service issue I encountered. On a previous visit, I faced challenges with the service. Despite requesting utensils to enjoy my meal, they were not provided, and I ended up having to locate them myself. Moreover, the food menu has undergone changes since my last visit. Regrettably, the diverse and appealing array of dishes they used to offer is now notably limited. Considering these recent experiences, I find it difficult to wholeheartedly endorse this place as a recommended destination for a satisfying dining experience.

Awful, avoid. Went there for my daughters 16th birthday. The food was terrible and massively over priced. when the manager asked us if everything was ok, we voiced our concerns saying that the pizza was under cooked and the £22 ribs were basically cooked bones with no meat, dry with no flavour and we would like some sort of refunding, we was told well we are a business and i dont appreciate how youre speaking to me! Most of us who went had bad stomachs the next day. Dont waste your money here.

December 21, 2023

Food was dry, everything covered in chillis, no desserts, no pizzas then the pizza oven caught on fire??? Laughable honestly. Then made no effort to tell people they was out of certain foods, until waiting over 30 mins. Then said we ll you was ordering so much we couldn t tell you it was out of stock.

Local Guide
December 21, 2023

Food was poor - salad had wilted lettuce and the dressing was a grilled slice of lemon, garlic bread was greasy and soggy and the chicken skewers were tough. We went with a party of 17 and 5 of the 17 meal orders were incorrect, and 3 people were left without mains when they ran out of pizza dough - we had to chase up the food, as no one came to tell us. They had also run out of desserts when we tried to order. Front of house staff were helpful and friendly, but kitchen appeared to have no clue. Keep in mind we sat down at 5pm on a Saturday, so to run out of pizza and all desserts before 7pm feels like mismanagement. Overall a very poor experience and we wont be going back, at least, not for food. Avoid the food and stick to the drinks.

I have just tried to go in to Pier 5 and they would not let me in at 10:30 when they close at 11:45 there were only 3 tables occupied what a joke. I would of thought you welcome business but obviously I am wrong. The lad who said they were closed should be sacked for turning away business.

My friends and I popped in for a pizza and I decided to have some chicken wings as well and I can legit say this is the best chicken wings I have had in the UK so far. It was amazing. The customer service was great as well and I always say great customer service makes the food taste ten times better. I will definitely go back there.

Quite expensive and limited selection. Calorie content on ALL the dishes seemed stupidly high. Food was decent enough but not sure Id go back.

Food was great. Highly recommend the cajun chicken burger and the cajun onion rings. Unfortunately service let it down. Staff seemed young and inexperienced. Our empty plates were left on the table for over 15 minutes before my husband took them up to the bar and asked for our childrens desserts. No one checked if our food was OK either. Lack of customer service lets this restaurant down. Also two cubicles had used tampon applicators on the floor. My young daughter questioned what they were. Pretty gross.

Fine. Duck loaded chips were OK, asked for it as a main but got tiny one. Mac and cheese was so bland that I couldnt have told what it was blindfolded. Staff very nice, everything else; meh

Good selection of beers. Ordered burgers at £11.95, plus fries (an extra? why?). Fries were stone cold and sent back, my burger the bacon was stone cold, didnt send back because of attitude of waiting staff lethargic, not interested, this was pm Sunday 26th June. Today 27th totally different attitude and staff.

Great spot in the summer, lovely outdoor seating area over looking the marina. Food was spot on although the pizza was a little on cold side but wings and chips unreal! Drink selection is very good and they have there own lager. Excellent price point. Highly recommend this place

Lovely atmosphere. Seating areas are nice. Staff not 100% on their face mask protocol. Greeting patrons at the entrance without a facemask and keep removing their masks to talk to each other at the bar. Wondering about health risks the way my cutlery were presented. Felt like I was about the get tetanus in a jar. Chicken was dry ....tried to eat some but was too dry and sweet potato fries were soggy. Another visit here today: staff are insensitive to customers preferences and comfort. Ordered an Aperol spritz cocktail, the description on their webpage states that the cocktail has soda in it. Now spare me but if youre making a cocktail outside going to taste delish not like someone is trying to poison you! Nor me neither my friend could swallow this medication. I politely went to the bar and explained that the drink is not drinkable as they must have mistakenly put soda water instead of sprite in the drink. The young lady confirmed that the drink is INDEED made with soda water. So I explained that we unfortunately not able to drink it as it is too bitter for consumption. She retorted by saying well we cant just refund you because you dont like your drink. I said its not that we dont like it...its too bitter to drink! She said well if you want anything else you have to pay for it and also pay for the drinks you wont drink. This is after not even having chicken on the menu because they out of stock...how do you go out of stock of chicken! They should just close tbh. I think ppl keep giving high ratings on here because the options are very limited in Gillingham/Chatham. After trying to give TETANUS in the past. Bare village mentality!

We always expect so much and are always disappointed. Prices are similar to London, but the quality and service is not on par. Pizza and wings are worth trying. Burgers are bland. And dont order the root veg fries. Super small portion and ours were almost raw.

Food is disgusting if like me you can t eat rich spicy sloppy meat dishes. They used to offer mozzarella & tomato on sourdough bread which was edible. The coronation chicken is not coronation chicken- more like a spicy chicken curry & the salt beef is ridiculously salty- has made me very ill. Very few non spicy non salty vegetarian dishes. Not everybody wants their food covered in mayonnaise & other sauces.

Very clean place and friendly staff good choice of beers. You can sit in our out plenty of seating. Menu very good many choices but we did not eat at this time just drinks. I can recommend the Thaï Lager smooth not to fizzy and good depth of flavour.

Oh my goodness, those dirty fries! We tried 2 different flavours and they were honestly so amazing! Really lived upto our expectations. The burgers were a really decent size too and also in thickness! We also had a pizza which was well flavoured and again, a very decent portion size. Will definitely be returning, didnt take any pics as was far too interested in eating it all! ** update ** Went back for more and wasnt disappointed! Even rememberd to take a picture for you all
