Restaurant looks really nice and comfortable. We went in for a family evening meal but turned away despite there being a number of empty tables. Decided to order 3 takeaway pizzas instead. Incredibly overpriced, 2 of the pizzas were dripping with grease, base of pizza box was saturated in oil, meat feast and BBQ chicken. Don't appear to use mozzarella, rather cheddar cheese as a topping. For £34 for 3 takeaway pizzas, you would expect better quality.

Just stumbled across this and what a find. Beautifully cooked pasta dishes - cannelloni and tomato and basil fusilli, perfect flavours and well presented. Couldnât resist Nutella pizza with vanilla ice cream, very delicious and unique. Great house red wine too. Felt very authentic and well put together with really good ambience. Great staff, just two of them doing a great job. Thoroughly recommend a visit.

If there was no star rating, this would place would get it. Nice welcome, then down hill all the way. Staff are not trained. Potted crab had shell in it, unseasoned, but nicely presented. Waitress tried to clear our plates before we had finished, my partner had I had not! Main course. Chicken parmigiana, how do I start?? Chicken Brest in breadcrumbs, deep fried served with linguine in tomato sauce. Chicken over cooked, this is because it should have been butterfly cut and beaten, pan fried in butter and olive oil. Till golden brown. As for the linguine, it was was over cooked and they must have forgot the salt in the water. The tomato sauce was out of a jar. Just disgusting. A tomato sauce is one of the easiest things to make. On the menu it states Fresh Basil not a chance it was dried. I had the same starter but the Chicken Caesar Salad, what was dumped in front of me was not a Chicken Cesar Salad. Just a few old lettuce leaves an over cooked Chicken Breast it was over cooked by more than 10 minutes, rubbery, no taste I couldnât eat it. I didnât nor did my partner as his was no better. Now for the Salad part limp lettuce a spot of dressing, out of a packet croutons and a very small amount of finely grated Parmigiana. Disgusting. A Caesar Salad should have Romano or baby gem lettuce, hard boiled egg, and shards Anchovies and bacon, and shards of Parmigiana, It had non of it. Itâs traditionally made at the table. We work hard 6 days a week so like to relax with a nice meal. I know what I am talking about with food I have been cooking for 50 years, and just won 2 one stars in the Great Taste awards. Typical British seaside RIPOFF it way over priced for Westward Ho! I would happily come in and teach your cook, how to cook as he is not a Chef! But I am not cheap!This exact response has been posted to your partner. As you came together.Dear Sir,In response to your review we feel that it is extremely unfair. Unfortunately you do not know our head chef, he is very tallented and very hard working with a fantastic work ethic. All of our staff worked extremely hard that evening on what was a very busy night for them, we are a small family restaurant. We as a professional establishment feel that you as a fellow chef made a scene in front of all the other customers when it could have been dealt with in a calm manner. We are more than happy to discuss your concerns and answer your questions if you would like to come in and speak to us. As you can see from our many other reviews they are all positive as were all of the customers when you left the restaurant, they very much enjoyed their evening. We always aim to make our customers happy, and always do our best and our regular customers and reviews support that. Kind regardsThe Drift Restaurant

Excellent pizzas made from fresh dough prepared in-house and cooked to perfection. Friendly staff for whom nothing was too much trouble. They don't have a licence but do stock a large range of soft drinks and alcohol-free or low-alcohol alternatives as well as hot drinks.If you're looking for a no-frills place to grab a tasty pizza after a day on the beach then look no further - all the pizzas were excellent but the garlic bread is especially good. We'd gladly eat there again if in the area.

Staying at Westward Ho for the week we popped in here for a drink with our dog after a long walk. Very welcoming and relaxing with the log fire burning and lovely views. Helpful, efficient staff and the food looked fab. Definitely recommend a visit.
