    Booked at last minute(45min notice) and requested a table seat if possible. When we arrived table was reserved and with a lovely waterside view. Service was friendly and efficient and menu was varied . Food arrived promptly and was hot and portions were good for money. Had a table check back to ensure everything was ok which was good . Would definitely return if in area.

    There is no doubt that the introduction of a new chef to the Crofton has greatly improved the standard of meals. Whilst I accept we visited on a Sunday and they are now having a specific Sunday menu. It would be nice if there was a choice of a salad available and not just as an accompaniment to a main The normal standard menu has at least two salad options. I have to say what I had, the gammon steak was good and as always, the beer at the Crofton is excellent.
