I had an absolutely outstanding brunch at Pike and Eel—the kind of experience that stays with you. I ordered the Texas Pulled Pork Eggs Benedict and it was, without exaggeration, perfection on a plate. The pulled pork was beautifully slow-cooked—tender, juicy, and full of rich, smoky flavour. It sat on a crisp, toasted English muffin with two perfectly poached eggs (the yolks were spot on), all topped with a smooth, buttery hollandaise sauce with just the right hint of sharpness. Every element was cooked with real care and balanced brilliantly. Huge credit goes to Chef Aveek, whose skill in the kitchen clearly shines through. You could tell every dish leaving the pass was made with precision and pride. He’s created a menu that’s both comforting and impressive—brunch done right. The service was just as exceptional. Jorja, our waitress, was honestly one of the best I’ve ever had. Warm, professional, attentive, and full of personality—she made us feel completely looked after without ever being overbearing. She really added something special to the whole experience. And a big shoutout to Tony, the bartender, who was equally fantastic. Friendly, welcoming, and clearly passionate about what he does, he helped create a relaxed, feel-good atmosphere that made us want to stay longer. Pike and Eel is a gem—top-quality food, standout service, and a team that genuinely cares. Can’t wait to return. If you haven’t been yet, go. You won’t be disappointed.

Been coming to the pike and eel on and off for over 10 years, absolutely love it. Nice food, nice staff, great location, a real gem , do yourself a favour and get down there. The accommodation is comfortable and the main parts of the original building are quirky and cosy.

Went for dinner, lovely location with plenty of room to sit on the lawn outside . Alot of customers with dogs off lead roaming about, ok if you like dogs. Staff lovely. The food I thought was overpriced to be honest , my husband ordered the steak which was tasty but tiny , came with a sauce and side of choice, no garnish side salad etc just the side you ordered( would expect more for the price). Be nice if there was steak chips rather than cheap fries . I had the vegetarian burger which was tasty but again just came with a plate of cheap fries no garnish or side salad again for the price I’d expect a bit more and presentation is lacking .

We had a lovely lunch in the restaurant, the avocado on toast and fish and chips were delicious! Our waiter was very attentive and helpful. Would recommend! The setting is also very pretty with lots of seating outside which is perfect for the summer!

Well-kept property. Location is by the river in tranquil setting. Food of a good standard. Staff were friendly and professional. A special mention for Tony.

Nice location, but no disabled parking, makes things very difficult when the car park is busy. There is a ramp at the main door, but its not much use if one has to walk about 100 metres when on has limited mobility. ................... ........

We went to the pike and eel for Christmas Day as a table of 14 at 1:30pm. I can’t tell you enough how great our experience was. From the attitude of the staff to the food itself and the fact we were still made to feel welcome still at 5:30pm which from past experiences on Xmas day you are made to feel you have to leave. Definitely the best Xmas day meal out ever and we will definitely be returning this year.
