The chef that was at the Bristol Arms is now one of the chefs at The Shipwreck - the restaurant in the marina - where food has improved. When I went to Shotley a few weeks ago they were handing out the restaurant specials list with the marina map and loo code. (I don't think those things were related!). Anyway I had lamb koftas which were very spicey but large and served with loads of veg and choice of rice, new pots etc. £6.95 IIRC. It got very busy in there. The Bristol Arms has a better ambience.

I agree with all of that.... the Shipwreck is much improved, but lacks the atmosphere of the Bristol Arms....

Saying that, you wouldn't believe how many people were at the Shipwreck Sunday afternoon as we departed the marina.....

Ok.... an extra piece of info....

three single blokes (plus any others that might join-----1 or 2 berths available, in the cockpit----very bright in the morning)

Shipwreck or Bristol Arms?

 

[Phoenix of Hamble]

Shipwreck.... less distance to stagger... /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

 

[MoodySabre]

Bristol Arms - more reason to stagger /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

New sea wall with fence if you do stagger............from Bristol Arms to Marina /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif
