Good service, onions added to my Dad's burger when I asked. Food was good, plenty of it, and a reasonable price. My only but would be that is was a bit cold in there.

Riverside Inn was wonderful: attentive and helpful staff, close proximity to Station, entering felt comfortable immediately, and great food at great value. Stranded in Ashford due to Storm Eunice, tried Riverside Inn on a whim. Were met by the loveliest of staff, particularly Ashley and the cook, who went above and beyond to make sure as guests we were taken care off and that after our visit we'd be safe and settled. Next time I'm passing through Ashford no doubt I'll be returning to this fantastic find!
