Best KPortal Reviews

I Stopped off here for some food and wasn't disappointed.
The staff were really friendly and helpful.
There was a little wait between getting served my drink and the food, despite the place not being super busy.
But.. it was worth the wait. The food was fresh and tasty, and a big portion.
Maybe they don't have a large kitchen, but I'm sure the food was cooked fresh, so that's worth waiting for. I'll certainly be going back. I had read some other reviews and I couldn't fault the place myself. The place is perfectly situated next to the water and marina, so it's a great place to stop for a break and food.
Called for a coffee today. Service was quick, drinks were nice and hot. Prices are reasonable for a seaside location. Toilets were reasonable, small but clean. We paid £8.35 for four drinks. We sat at the bay window seat excellent spot for people watching.
Called in here for Saturday Lunch. We had the Pensioners Fish and Chips, this came with Mushy Peas, Bread and Butter and a Pot of Tea. Food was excellent ( wished I'd had a bigger appetite would have gone for the larger one). Place was really clean and Staff attentive. Cake looked lovely too - oh for a bigger appetite!
Well Done to All,????
Called on on spec. Ordered a senior fish and chips and a regular .The senior came with the same portion of chips and mushy peas, just a smaller fish which meant left over chips .They were fried in vegetable oil .It was really quiet when we were there so I cannot comment on the ambience.Goid view from the window.
Went for a walk along the prom and decided to pop in somewhere for a late lunch. Saw the Ivy and the building was beautiful so decided to go on in. There were only a few others in, but the floor was messy and the table needed a wipe... but the staff were friendly and took our order quickly
We both had the fish & chips and they were absolutely lovely! Literally cannot fault the food and drinks at all. Great cafe but needs more attention to cleaning between customers.
Wow! Tasty OAP Fish & Chips for only £5.95 complete with bread & butter, tartare sauces and a pot of tea! Big portions of prawn cocktail or chicken salad too! The fish batter was amazing and light. Nice views out of the huge windows!
We visited this cafe as it looked very appealing from the outside with a modern bar that we could see through the window. However when we got inside, tables were dirty, sticky and the chairs were just ruined. We ordered drinks including a cup of tea. When it arrived to the table, the crockery was filthy! I asked for a replacement which came promptly, only they were just as dirty and so I chose not to drink it. To make matters worse, one of the waitresses picked up the cup I had returned, rang it quickly under a frother on the coffee machine, than dried it on her matted and stained pinny! I could have vomited. She then proceeded to put it straight onto a customer's tea tray.
Do not go to this cafe! It's such a shame as its location is great but their very poor hygiene would be enough to close them down.
I went here to eat yesterday and the food was amazing the staff were friendly but I think the place could use more staff to make service faster I found it quite slow the fish was ok but the chips were amazing
