We were hoping for a much better visit to Engine House on the Copper Coast, but it fell short across the board. Service was sluggish from start to finish and felt quite cold. To make matters worse, the meal was significantly overpriced - the fish goujons were clearly processed, frozen supermarket items rather than fresh quality food. We couldn't finish them. Dessert of strawberry & chocolate cheesecake was no better. Overall, a very poor value experience, and not somewhere we'll be coming back to.

We had a pleasant evening, the atmosphere was lively. Chicken wings and prawns were dull in taste, not at all a bit spicy. Beef was okay. The plaice a great disappointment! Just two fillets - probably from frozen - way OVER PRICED!

Every morsel was delicious. Staff were lovely. Great pub. Great food. My wae steak was cooked to perfection. Chowder was a meal in itself and not too heavy. Just so tasty and light. Tasted my 3 companion's dishes as well. All excellent.
