   Lovely food, good portion size, friendly, helpful staff didn’t have to wait long for our food to arrive. We have been several times & have always enjoyed the food. Only thing that I would like is if they did chicken in the roast menu for Sundays but overall it’s always a pleasant experience I will definitely be going back

   Everything was amazing as always - we love it there - so kid friendly. Food this time was a little over done - so the kids didn’t eat much of their breaded chicken bits or chicken burger - but the veg always gets eaten and the adult pies were great. The service is friendly and always have time for you and your little ones’ needs. Another visit and another happy family visit.

   A lovely catch up with friends overlooking the sea. Food was great and so was the service. Vegetables cooked perfectly. Salmon was delicious.

   Every time you walk through the door you’re greeting by happy staff making you feel welcome, and the waiters can’t do enough for you, food is always excellent, I’m not able to fault this establishment in any way, and would recommend that people visit 👍👍👍👍👍👍

   We had the beef for Sunday roast. Very generous portions and piping hot. The Yorkshire puddings were excellent - really tasted like proper home made rather than the frozen ones you often get in restaurants. The roast potatoes weren’t the best - could have done with longer in the oven to make them really crispy but great choice of veg - carrots, red cabbage and cauliflower cheese. Wonderful desserts: we had the lemon posset with raspberry coulis and shortbread and the chocolate brownie with ice cream. Again very generous portions. The service was good considering how busy the restaurant was. We were initially seated next to a large party with some very boisterous children so asked if there was a quieter table available. The staff were accommodating and we were moved to the opposite end of the restaurant where there were just 3 tables together. Unfortunately one table was occupied by a lady with a very loud speaking voice and the other had a family of three who were singing parts of songs to each other. Thankfully once all the food was served up the noise level decreased significantly. For this reason I could give only 3 stars for ambience. Overall I would recommend the Captain Digby but not if you want a quiet meal on a Sunday lunchtime.

    Some of the food was definitely reheated. I had pork t-bone for my main course which was overcooked and dry, the mash tasted reheated and really stodgy. Some parts of the sharing starter were reheated and others fresh. 90 pound bill for wetherspoons food.
