About

The Moon & Starfish is a typical Wetherspoons—reliable, cheap, and busy. It's a great spot for a budget-friendly meal or drink with a view of the pier. While the food and service are generally consistent, the pub can get very noisy and crowded, and some diners find the cleanliness to be lacking. It's a 'get what you pay for' experience that works well for many.
