The outside of Aston Marina was well presented with lovely views of the docked boats. We were greeted warmly by staff entering and they kindly made accommodations for one of our party members with hearing loss, sitting us at a quieter table and turning the music down lower. The food was outstanding (both main and desserts) and I imagine a return visit soon. Couldn't fault it.

You won’t find a dining experience as lovely and exclusive as this dome experience. The beautiful scenery complemented our appetising and artfully presented dishes. Also, thanks to the courteous staff who served us that day!

The food was excellent. The staff were very attentive, we were given a jug of water when we sat down at the table and when we had finished the jug a fresh one was brought to the table. Staff were very helpful in giving recommendations and checking our queries with the chef, mainly in regards to the gluten free food options. It was my birthday and we were brought a lovely surprise birthday plate over (chocolate writing, brownie and meringue), it was a very nice surprise and made the night feel special I would highly recommend Aston Marina and will definitely be returning

Had a lovely business lunch with some colleagues from Manchester. I had the fishcake which was excellent and more substantial than I would have expected from the menu. Nice glass of wine. Not cheap but reasonable. 4 lunches with wine under 100 (they tapped to pay, that's all I know)

Had our first Christmas dinner out here today, absolutely amazing. The food was fantastic as were the staff, couldn't find one single thing that wasn't 5 Star. Loved it!

Such a brilliant place to eat! Staff were wonderful - top notch service. And the food and drinks were brilliant. I was especially pleased to see a set menu with more exciting options than they usually offer! Thoroughly recommend.

Visited twice this week. Once for Sunday Roast and again for lunch today. Gluten-free options are genuine alternatives rather than just the kitchen removing items (which is great for Coeliacs). Lovely little find and highly recommend. Will definitely be back

Spent a really lovely evening here. Enjoyed an early evening Sunday roast. They managed to offer us a table as walk-ins. Service from start to finish was excellent. Atmosphere lovely. Food delicious. Looking forward to returning again in the summer to enjoy the canal views.
