About

The Quay is a modern, refurbished pub that focuses on social entertainment like darts and pool. While the atmosphere and games are a big hit, the food quality is frequently criticized as being overpriced and underwhelming. It is a great spot for drinks and fun, but perhaps not for a serious meal.
