Here are some heartfelt reflections from guests who’ve dined with us at River Quay Fish.
A lovely restaurant/cafe with gorgeous views over the river. A great place to have a drink and some delicious food. The fish tacos are amazing! Will and Callum were great at serving and made us some exquisite cocktails. Will definitely be back again soon!!
an other wonderful place to enjoy the evening at the river with friends. Prices are very reasonable compared with the quality which was really high. For sure, I will keep at my list for the next time
