Wow! What an experience! This has been a fish restaurant since 1889. Superb food. Very traditional. PLEASE NOTE you cannot book a table so I recommend you get there around 11.30 to eat at lunchtime and all your party need to be there when you arrive. Only open weekdays, at lunchtime. They only serve seafood and sides but the fish is really fresh and well cooked. A great experience! PS try the tankard of Black Velvet but don't drink it too quickly!

How anyone could give this place a bad review is beyond me. It's a historic institution, excellent food and atmosphere. Try the black velvet drink and anything or everything off the menu. This place should only be protected and celebrated.

One of those places where if you know, you know. The scallops wrapped in bacon was just perfectly cooked! Excellent fish pie. Oysters were fresh. The wine list is great. Perfect for a quick nice afternoon meal! Make sure you come early or you won't get a seat. And whatever you do, don't miss the sticky toffee pudding! One of the best I've had recently.

Such an institution and I was only able to visit this place as I had a day off on a weekday! The place is buzzing from the moment it’s opened and you must go there early to make sure that you get a table or wait for a while. We started off with the famous black velvet (champs and Guinness) and oysters. The service is very slow up until you finish your starter so don’t get there too hungry! The food quality is top notch especially loved the generous serving of salmon and eels. The mains were also cooked well. I definitely recommend a visit once in a life time!
