Full of atmosphere and people even on a Tuesday evening. Excellent and tasty food served with a smile. Open kitchen so can watch food being prepared. Portions very generous and the Plum Eaton mess was to die for! Even if the place is small it had something special. Very good service.

On arrival I felt completely relaxed. It was haven from all the bikes that were there during the TT. Very small with an open plan kithcen which I think is great. We sat right next to the kitchen so I spent most of the evening marvelling at their culinary skills. Both the chefs were really friendly. I had the crab... More

I had queenie fritters to start and hake and king prawn for mains. Quite a large wine selection available as well. Its not particularly cheap but the food... More

Great seafood place. I've been many times - both with family, friends and for business. Food has always been consistently good. Its not cheap as such - but I think its good value for quality seafood. The specials board always has some interesting ideas - and I'd recommend those. A couple of times I was there with people that had... More

First impression of the restaurant is it is overcrowded with little space between tables. I tried their Famous fish and chips ( this was actually stated on the menu ) it was clearly famous for grease and more batter than fish !! We tried it again within a fortnight on this occasion I was served a dry small piece of... More

Excellent quality fish prepared exactly as it should be and served by pleasant and obliging staff in slightly cramped conditions but you will not regret the food. A good wine list.

Everything about this place says quality. If you like seafood this is the place to try. Yes the price is slightly higher than other places on the island but, it is well worth it. The service is top notch, the wine is fantastic, and the food is perfect. Please try if you get the opportunity.

This restaurant was recommended to us, and it lived up to expectations. Small, so be sure to book. Not cheap but super food. Lunchtime set price is best value, but we were tempted by the specials!!! If you like seafood, try here.

Fabulous choice and lovely fun setting You must book as it gets v busy with business types around lunch, but it is laid back and friendly. Fish pie is a favourite and the deserts are also amazing. Already booked to go back twice.
