Stunning views across the bay, great fish centric menu with local produce. Highly recommend
You know a place is going to be great to eat at when you can smell the outdoor BBQ being used by one of the chefs to griddle the aubergines for their smoky baba ghanoush! It did not disappoint.
Not only is this a fabulous location for a restaurant with sweeping views of the sea, but the decor is also brilliantly appointed. Relax in one of the super comfy armchairs after eating.
Lovely cocktails and a good wine list are a nice compliment to a reassuringly short but well thought out menu. There are also daily specials. It would have been easy to eat everything if only time and an expanding waistline would allow!
The highlights were of course the baba ghanoush with a delicious focaccia and a nicely spiced seafood pil pil with crab, prawn, clams and mussels.
We had a great meal here, the most delicate and delicious crab tartlet, followed by John Dory and the strawberry sorbet. It was really outstanding! The service couldn’t have been better or more friendly and it was dog friendly so our dog slept very soundly under the table. Beautiful views to boot. It was a highlight of our holiday and if we’re back that way, we’ll be popping in again ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Only stopped to admire the view, with a coffee and a brownie. Comfortable seating, efficient service. Dog friendly
Amazing views of the beach and the headlands towards Prawle Point and the new building is decent although missing in the character of the old hotel. The food was of good quality and very tasty. The Tomatoes and goat curd starter converted my partner to eat raw tomatoes for the first time in her life and my crab was tasty. Mains were also decent. My rack of lamb was really well cooked and good flavour with the fat rendered down nicely. Super tasty little sage flavoured sausage role as well. My partners veggie main was not as good but still a pleasant dish which she enjoyed overall. We often find the veggie options can struggle to hit that same standard as the more traditional meat/fish dishes.
The wine was recommended by our waiter and was a tasty Argentinian Malbec, which hit the spot for a reasonable price. Deserts were good. Cheese board excellent. Chutney seemed to be more an apple sauce and less than expected. No real ‘chocolate’ option on the menu always seems a mistake IMO but the white chocolate torte was very tasty. Overall a really pleasant evening and we were well looked after by the staff. Four stars as I found it priced a little higher than the quality although the location is exceptional. I still object to paying for bread at the start of the meal. But it was a decent kitchen baked sourdough so I guess that’s why.
Looked amazing, but only stopped for a drink. But friendly quick service. Great location. Definately on our list as somewhere to try.

Location was incredible. Sound proofing wasn’t great so heard a lot of conversations and tv’s from next door and upstairs. Expected more from a resort offering stays for the money they are
We had lunch here today, Sunday. I started with sardines, which were extremely tasty. For mains we had the beef and pork. The portions were very generous and the meat was extraordinarily tender. The service was perfect. The location was gorgeous. The restaurant was spacious with lots of room between tables. To complete this excellent experience our waitress - Alice - was attentive, good-humoured, well-mannered and very knowledgeable about the venue. She made our experience very, very pleasant.
Sunday lunch. Open fire BBQ and salad table ( help yourself to the salad) roast lamb and ribs were excellent and plenty of unsual salads. Just as we had left our vegetarian adult behind.
Superb venue for lunch. Great customer service - nothing too much trouble. Views weren't too bad either!
There fries are so crispy and good and there fish is so yummy. Julia is the best!!!
