Recently done up with new seating and decor, this place has a friendly welcome and serves good food at a reasonable price. I had the cheese & ham omelette with salad (low carb) which was truly excellent. They really took pride in serving up a salad that was far above my expectations for a cafe. The omelette was of a generous size, superbly cooked and very tasty. Highly recommended!!

First time we visit this cafe today, was a really nice experience from start to finish and we was both very happy with our meals. I would say the prices could be a little lower on some of the items, not all. We will definitely return.

I cannot fault the service and quality here. We were served by a friendly and helpful fella. We had paninis and lattes - both were excellent quality. All this for a price that won't break the bank. If you're in the area, I would highly recommend here for lunch.

Situated on the ground floor of the Pentagon Centre, Latinos is a must if you are in the centre! Friendly staff, a truly decent mug of tea and VERY tasty food! Very much another place to avoid if you're on a diet!

Took my wife here for her birthday as she had want to go here for a long time and we were not disappointed, the food and service was excellent. The staff are extremely friendly and efficient, we will definitely be returning here in the future.

First time visiting and definitely not the last ! Food is absolutely amazing, highly recommend the starter where you get a little bit of each. The staff were some of the kindest people I’ve ever come across in a restaurant, nothing was too much trouble and they happily helped us decorate our table for our girlfriend’s birthday. This was also her choice of restaurant to go for evening as she had been before and loved it. We were offered complimentary drinks for her birthday which was so lovely. We wasn’t aware but they do have parking at the back of the restaurant as parking out front is difficult due to parking restrictions. 5* from us and we will see you very soon :)

Absolutely delicious. Whenever i’m in the area i’m sure to visit. Great service. Superb portions. No greasy curries here. Lovely and tasty and at a good price. They even have a B&B on site now (I will try that soon!) Bobby is an excellent employee. What a star! Thanks Bobby

To be honest, you can't go far wrong with Nandos. Providing you can actually get a table because they are always so busy. Food comes up quickly and I've always found it good and with enough to satisfy my appetite. They are of course famous for their peri-peri sauce but if you can't stand the heat try the lemon and herb or the BBQ. Don't like chicken? There are other options including those for vegetarians and vegans. If you are one of the few people who are still on a health kick on January the 2nd you can choose to not have fried and have something else. I like the bottomless soft drinks options and as I normally manage to down about three glasses it's great value too! Dessert, well they have bottomless frozen vanilla yoghurt, please give us some sauces though Nandos even if there was a surcharge. Those Portuguese custard tarts are literally to die for by the way.

Recently had a visit to this branch. Good points. 1. Receiption was good, although didnt book in advance, we were quickly accommodated a group of five. 2. The staff taking the order was very polite and professional. Constructive points. 1. Out of 5 people order, 1 order particularly mine was served a bit late, 20 mins roughly. But once we mentioned it, they brought the food. The staff apolosised and offered a cake. Summary. A very nice branch and the food served was nicely cooked. Will visit again.

Nandos, as usual, food is perfect, service is great and atmosphere is always good. This was the first time they did not check in on our table during the meal (did not remove the rooster stick) even though it was not crowded.

I came in to grab a drink only to find I forgot to have cash on me. The owner very kindly offered to make me a drink despite not being able to pay as they don’t accept card payments. Next time I’m in town I’ll make sure to be back with some cash.

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).

A lovely location situated by the marina. Don't be put off by the first sight of the building - we thought it looked like an old run down warehouse but then perhaps that was the idea! Reception was dark and gloomy (and unmanned - we waited ages before someone turned up) also the corridors are a bit dismal but again maybe because keeping the authentication of the building? Food was excellent with a good choice and sensible prices. Very popular with the locals. We found our room to be a bit small but it was well stocked, clean and had a lovely view of the marina.

Had a lovely family Sunday lunch at the Ship & Trades today. Great service, very professional and attentive. The meals were excellent. The beef was tender and tasty. Feedback from the others were that the fish & chips, pie & mash and pizza's for the kids were very good. Ours thank to Rebecca and her staff for making us all very welcome. I would certainly recommend this venue, and we will be returning. P.s Don't forget to register your vehicle reg for parking when you walk in. Tablets to do so are available at the bar, and at the entrance to the restaurant.

Was not aware that we had to pay for drinks. No issue paying the £3.50 but we had no idea you had to go to the bar and order them. Food was great and will definitely return. Sushi was dry so probably wouldn't go for that, but the duck and prawns were so juicy. The staff managing the Teppanyaki did not want to be there, almost appeared that they tried to hide to avoid anyone noticing the area.

Barely any wait to be seated, super friendly staff. The general restaurant was really clean and the food areas were exceptionally clean, which i was very impressed with. Lots of staff walking around clearing plates and ensuring the place was clean and tidy. A constant supply of food too. I tried most, if not all the food (small portions) and believe they were all to a good standard. Of course, some I enjoyed more than others due to personal likes and dislikes but generally I felt it was to a high standard. Lots to chose from and a gorgeous dessert area. For £16.50 each and £3 for unlimited refillable drinks i really think this is a brilliant restaurant. Not only the only buffet option for miles around, but decently priced for the overall experience. If your unsure- just go. For the price you will find something you will enjoy, and if you cant- ill be highly surprised!! The only thing I would comment on to improve would be the closeness of the tables and space around the restaurant as i felt quite close to other guests, although this did not ruin my experience i feel others may be put off. Also that some people chose not to use the tongs or equipment to pick up their food from the designated areas, which of course is not the restaurants fault, although prompt signs across the restaurant and perhaps a member of staff reminding customers to be sanitary would be helpful.

We went to visit this restaurant as a family of 4 for my daughter's birthday and I have to say we were pleasantly surprised. Didn't book a table but got seated in about 10 minutes. The staff were helpful and friendly. Even on a Monday the restaurant was very busy. The food was always fresh and in good supply. Very tasty too. You will find something for everyone (even picky eaters). Indian dishes and chicken was halal for those who eat only halal meat. Good selection of sushi and seafood too. There is a limit of 1.5 hour seating time. The price is good too (we've been to buffets that cost £10 pp more that spoons) As the restaurant is on high street there is no own car park however there is pay and display near by parking on the high street and there is a shopping centre Pentagon close by too. Overall I would recommend it

For £21 you can experience a wide variety of cuisines. Every dish has it's own unique flavours. Definitely worth the experience. You won't be able to taste everything in one visit. There's usually a time limit of an hour and a half. I would recommend the place.
