RIVERSIDE Inn, located in the heart of Ross-on-Wye, has thanked its loyal customers for their support over the past six months.

The popular spot, which has gained attention for its high-quality produce and exceptional staff, has been a hit with locals and visitors alike.

In a statement posted on social media, the team behind Riverside Inn said: "We would love to say a big thank you to all our customers who have made our first six months as successful as it could be. We could not do it without you."

However, to maintain their high standards and continue offering top-quality food and service, the Riverside Inn has announced a price increase starting this April.

The adjustment will be in line with the Spring Statement 2025, which includes economic measures to address inflation and other fiscal changes.

In addition to this update, Riverside Inn has introduced a new coffee loyalty card for its patrons. Coffee lovers can now collect seven stamps on the card and receive their eighth coffee for free, adding a sweet incentive to regular visits.

This comes in the wake of the government’s Spring Statement, where Chancellor Rachel Reeves outlined measures for economic stability, including fiscal policies that could affect local businesses like Riverside Inn.

While growth forecasts have been lowered, with GDP growth expected to be just 1% in 2025, local businesses are adjusting to these changes with a variety of strategies, including price increases to offset rising costs.

Despite the challenging economic climate, Riverside Inn remains a cherished destination in Ross-on-Wye, with its dedication to quality and service at the forefront of its operation.

As the venue adapts to the economic landscape, it continues to rely on the support of its customers, which remains essential to its continued success.
