Great food and cocktails and very good service in a really nice spot looking out over the sea. Only slight criticism was that on a warm summer's day it was almost unbearably hot inside, the thermostat said 31c, not sure if the air con was working?

Had a great experience in this restaurant. The service was excellent and lots on the menu to choose from, plus specials. My husband chose the scallop starter, they were delicious. I particularly enjoyed the crayfish mac cheese as a main. Such a relaxed vibe, we sat in the lounge bar area after our meal and drank cocktails with a seaview. The lemondrop is the best! Will definitely visit again and highly recommend. Booking recommended as was busy, even on a dull Thursday night.

Ladies and gentlemen - we once again have a 5* review! A very busy Friday visit. Food was beautifully presented and tasted perfect. The fish and chips were superb. Alicia provided attentive service in a busy environment. No service charge - yes, we as adults are able to decide on tips etc. Wow. I very much look forward to returning this wonderful local establishment.

Elements has such amazing food and incredibly friendly staff. The view over Summerleaze Beach is also incredible. It is such a shame that the old restaurant burnt down.

I am trying to leave a review for Elements but keeps giving hotel info. We didn't stay but did eat and glad we did so. There were 8 of us and they managed to squeeze us in the bar area. It was busy but service was good and friendly. Food excellent also and all of enjoyed the meal. Great view also and decent rose wine on special to accompany.
