I have been a customer of the Rye River for a number of years. The staff are wonderful very welcoming & friendly. The menu covers all tastes, great quality & good value. The hygiene was always a very high standard but since the pandemic they have raised the bar. You will never leave hunger, Rye River will soon become your regular spot

Had my friends with me after not seeing them since Christmas, we had a fabulous breakfast, food was great and service was so good, they checked everything was okay and if we needed anything. Love the fact that our temperature was taken on the way in and an air cleaner on the wall, lots of sanitiser and staff constantly cleaning their hands and sanitising tables. Can't wait to go back

Food never tasted so good ! We had complete peace of mind as far as hygene & social distancing are concerned as Rye River are ticking all the boxes in compliance. Staff as always are obliging & happy in their work. Still gr8 ambiance with good volume of chatter that has been so badly missed. No surprises on the limited menu something there to whet everyones appitite. A wonderful first breakfast out in 4 months can't wait to return. Thanks Shona & Alan for all you have done from the very start of this from your superb takeaway to making a cup of coffee taste like 'more '

This was our first outing since the lockdown, all in all it was great. My only feedback would be that if you have a 45 min slot staff need to be prompt taking your order, even a small 10 min wait (which would usually go unnoticed) cuts into your time! Kids loved it Water in ladies was very hot and we were unable to regulate to ensure cold water to wash my 4 year olds hands (staff were made aware and apologised) We'll be back next week!

The only negative thing was that we were sat close to the door and it was freezing, every time that a new customer was coming/leaving the door stayed opened for few minutes. Perhaps a double door system or a glass for protecting customers could be an option. Everything else was great. Thank you
