    Lovely place. I took my son there for his birthday. The service was fantastic, the food was lovely. Portions a bit on the large side. Everything about the place was great. My son got a free drink from the host, which was a very lovely gesture . Thanks for a fantastic service. We had a great time.

    We are increasingly turning to the Embankment Hotel for celebration meals with friends and family. Without doubt you can be guaranteed a warm welcome, fantastic food with a good range to suit every age and taste. Extremely helpful with allergy information and catering for special needs. We were carefully attended by a lovely caring lady whose name I have sadly forgotten and an excellent trainee called Harvey who did a great and efficient job caring for our party. The Embankment has a warm and homely feel matched by a highly competent staff. Another great family meal out enjoyed by us all . Thank you.

    I celebrated my recent birthday with 14 friends for a Saturday lunch. Despite a busy resterant and a wedding in the room next door we had use of a quieter back room and one member of staff dedicated to our group. It was excellent, food lovely and service great. I would do this again!
