The Inn on the Quay is on the south side of Goodrington Park next to the seafront and a short walk from Goodrington Railway Station. The park houses a boating lake, children’s playground and crazy golf and next to the pub is a Premier Inn and small sea life centre that is free to enter. There are two large seating areas full of picnic tables and the one at the front of the pub affords views of the beach and West Cliff. The pub itself is Brewers Fayre so it is food led and family orientated. It opens at 11:00 and the kitchen opens at midday when cheap pub co food can be purchased. I ate with the family and the quality was reasonable for the price, but I was a little bit put off by the barman who proudly stated whilst taking my order that any food we received that wasn’t up to scratch would be replaced no questions asked. The menu on our table was dirty and I had to return a glass that had some rice stuck to it. We decided to stick to the burgers which are hard to mess up. The bar is stocked with standard draught and the sole hand pump was off, although a Tribute badge was present. This is a very big pub and as I have a couple of nippers I was glad to find a small soft play centre in the left hand side. For a cheap food option this place is ok, but we wouldn’t go out of our way to visit here again and if I was without the kids I wouldn’t entertain the idea of a return visit.
