The Old Fort, Seaview - (Near , london)

5 /5 Nanda Nair: Such a great atmosphere with lovely friendly staff who were very attentive, great music choice and not to mention the absolutely delicious food. My partner and I ordered the honey and soy wings, smash burger, bream and the cheesecake of the day and were blown away by them all.

5 /5 Rob Parker: Lovely pub with a good selection of local ales and ciders. We got a couple of their pizzas to takeaway one night and they were delicious and hot. Didn’t take long to get them and had a pint while we waited. Another night we had a meal in the pub area. Generally felt and looked clean and tidy, loved the nautical themed decorations and items. The food was amazing. The beef brisket pulled apart easily and was juicy. The mash was creamy. The vegetables were perfectly roasted. Would recommend the beef brisket. My partners salmon was also tasty and good portion sizes. The food is on the expensive end but the quality matches it and it’s a treat. I can imagine in the summer months the views over the sea are spectacular.

5 /5 Julian Wallond: Been here many times over the years, and this time it did not disappoint. It was a busy Sunday lunchtime, and so good job we had booked. Both the service and the food was very good. Recommended.

5 /5 Damian Kowalski: I love this pub — I’ve been here several times for different occasions. Only once was I a bit disappointed by the food, but since then there’s been a massive improvement. This time we had the crispy polenta and buffalo chicken to start, and both were amazing. The polenta was absolutely insane — the texture was perfect: crispy on the outside and fluffy inside, topped with wild mushrooms — absolutely genius! The buffalo wings were tasty and meaty, just as you’d expect. For my main, I had the gluten-free smashed burger. The meat felt a bit old, and I couldn’t quite tell which flavour was stronger — the meat or the blue cheese sauce. It came with chips and a side salad, which were great. Kids had pizza, fish goujons, and garlic bread on the side — they said it was nice, and I trust them on that since I couldn’t try it (I’m coeliac). Service was friendly and helpful, especially with my dietary requirements. The atmosphere, as always, was lovely. This is definitely one of my favourite pubs to eat out at — just need a bit more consistency with the food, and it’d be perfect.

4 /5 Mr B: Well regarded and popular high end but deliciously simple restaurant. Serves locals and the large visiting sailing community. It’s busy and noisy through the early evening and guests seek post sailing sustenance. We had a large family dinner. Starters and mains plus drinks. Service is friendly and relaxed and surprisingly quick given how busy it is. Lots of fish dishes on offer and they nail it. I had the crab bruschetta followed by the grilled plaice - both superb. Others had crab ramekin - excellent, and smoked mackerel pate. Only downside was the burgers main dishes which were run of the mill. Decent sized portions. It’s not cheap (£300+ for 7) but they do it well. Lots to like and a great location.
