  “My husband and I enjoyed a delicious lunch here. We had the sausage and mash, as well as the steak sandwich offered with the lunch special all washed down with a couple pints of cider. Our meals were delicious and the restaurant is well staged and decorated. Our server Harry was amazing and very friendly, we enjoyed talking with him! We would highly recommend this spot👍🏼”

  “Went to The Sun for the first time since it had opened. I was amazed with the new interior and welcoming staff! A special shout out to the manager Harry, who greeted us immediately and told us about all the food and drink options available. It was very refreshing to go into a venue where staff are happy to go up and speak to customers instead of relying on having to find a staff member! Keep up the good work guys, food was amazing, drinks were perfectly chilled. Atmosphere was amazing, especially in the sun outside at the tables. Will definitely be coming back!”

  “Beer served in plastic glasses, which for £7 a pint would expect a proper glass, they said it was due to the license while football was shown, but any other pub uses proper glasses. The food was average, £20 burger with standard meat, for that price you would expect more quality. Kitchen closed at 9pm, so we couldn't order more food during the 2nd half when we were still hungry. Had high expectations from this place, but sadly won't be back after this bad experience”

  “Had a brilliant time at The Sun. The food was excellent, the atmosphere was spot on, and the outside area was a great place to relax and enjoy the evening. A special mention to Harry, who looked after us throughout our visit and provided outstanding service, friendly, attentive and a real credit to the team. It’s clear that customer experience is a priority here. We’ll definitely be returning and would highly recommend The Sun to anyone looking for great food, drinks and a welcoming atmosphere.”

  “60MP held a very special place in my heart and still have the original regulars card in my wallet. Drove over to Bournemouth and went to The Sun this evening for a catch up with a good friend, enjoyed the atmosphere and the new look, the staff were really nice and the food was great. Had the falafel burger, was delicious, highly recommended! Look forward to going back again.”

  “This sun is the latest and exquisite place in Bournemouth's heart to be at. Be it games, be it a drink after work, be it a date. The sun is place to be at. The staff is super friendly and helpful at all times. If you haven't been here, well you haven't been here 😊”

  “The Sun … I recognise the need for the new generic overhaul, it will surely meet the businesses need to make a profit. The sun trap is always beautiful. The staff seem very nice and competent The chicken I tried was tasty, just slightly high price which will be a factor locally. personal no problem with that as I prefer quality and it was good. I will miss 60 million very much! Has a special place in my heart forever. Why only a 3 star establishment… 1. The big 1… the damn generic copy right free horrible sounds playing through the speakers! This is the noise they play in my version of hell! Give the control back to the staff to assess what’s appropriate for the clients at the time, many factors of time, style & most important weather Fix this please and get atleast 1 star back! 2. The generic art work makes me wince … you’ve turned one of the last remaining places of soul into a vomit inducing AI generic crumb of a establishment (forgettable & normal) That’s it I think … lacking soul … But I will visit again and experience more that’s on offer. I respect that previously it wasn’t thriving I imagine it will become a hotspot hard to get tables even … but let’s see! If this revamp fails it’s because you lost a little genuine connection with people! Maybe take another look at the details now and add back that personal charm We already have too many sell out generic franchise feeling places… guess what they largely fail, often to the surprise of their investors and management who are left asking what they did wrong!? The answer is they lost their soul Happy to give 4 star if ear bleeding noise is fixed Would give a full 5 star across the board if you re-introduced a personal, unique soul to the establishment. Still new 100% … but not soulless Good luck and still excited to return … I hope you hear feedback and allow it to evolve to reach its potential”
