Description
It was in 1976 that well-known architect Piers Gough re-constructed this restaurant which is uniquely located on an 'island' overlooking the West Bay fishing port. A recent extension has provided a further dining area. The business has been in the same family for some 44 years, with the emphasis today unsurprisingly based around fresh fish and shellfish - mostly from local waters - alongside an intelligent, simply-cooked approach. There is shellfish (when available of course) such as crab salad (whole or dressed), or local Channel lobster served in a number of ways. The daily specials are worth checking out, such as fillets of sea bass with slow-roasted belly of pork. Meat and vegetarian options are also offered on the daily specials list.
