The Waiting Room

You'll find yourself in a proper old-school boozer the moment you walk through the doors at Station—it's got that railway heritage that actually feels earned, not cosied up for tourists. The bar staff know their stuff, the regulars are genuinely welcoming, and there's real ale on tap that changes rotation. The food's honest and unpretentious: pies, fish and chips, the sorts of things that work when you're famished after a walk along the coast. It's the kind of place where you can pop in for a quick drink and end up staying three hours because someone's always got a good story to tell.
